How It All Comes Together — The Long-Term View

  • Chapter
Wise Wealth

Abstract

Over the course of this book we have explored many issues relating to the concept of the cycle of wealth. We have looked at the beginning of the creation of wealth — most typically by entrepreneurs. When the family grows — either in the same generation or in the next — the business becomes a family business. Over time, business considerations are enlarged to include an ownership platform.

Every right implies a responsibility; every opportunity an obligation; every possession a duty.

—John D. Rockefeller, Jr.1
