generational-wealth

For many parents, providing for their children goes far beyond daily expenses — it's about building a foundation for the future. We talked to parents about how they built wealth from scratch to give their kids financial security and the lessons they learned along the way.

We spoke with three families who told us what it really takes to inherit and keep a family business alive. They run a decades-old Chicago barbecue sauce brand, a Greek bakery, and one of the last fabric-flower businesses in New York.
