The idea of a $72 trillion wealth transfer sounds promising. But for many families, that wealth may never make it to the next generation.

It'll get transferred to the government, or the health care industry, that's where it gets transferred to. My grandma was the perfect example. By the time she died, the money from selling the farm was gone, but her remaining children didn't all believe it, and then the squabbling commenced. My aunts were convinced my mother had taken the money, but Grandma was in long-term care the last six months, and that money was gone.

The lust for money always reveals who a person is at their core. As a practical matter, everyone has it to a certain extent for survival purposes, but some people let it remove too many moral and ethical limits to be healthy.
