Is it better to give money to your children now or wait and pass it down later?

In this episode of Ditch the Suits, we continue our conversation on multi-generational financial planning by exploring one of the biggest questions families face: when and how to transfer wealth.

We break down the trade-offs between gifting during your lifetime versus leaving an inheritance, how to think about taxes and long-term planning, and why aligning with your spouse and family is critical to making the right decision.

What You’ll Learn:

• The pros and cons of gifting now vs. leaving an inheritance

• How to think about taxes when transferring wealth

• Why your own financial plan must come first

• How to align with your spouse on financial decisions

• The importance of involving your children in financial conversations

• How to define what you want your money to do for your family

• Planning for aging, care, and maintaining dignity later in life

Who This Is For:

Parents, families, and high earners who are thinking about when and how to pass wealth to the next generation in a thoughtful, strategic way.

Key Takeaway:

The decision to give now or later isn’t just financial, it’s personal. The best plan aligns your resources with your values, your family, and your long-term needs.
