Change Your Mindset and Stay Wealthy Getting rich and staying rich are two totally different challenges. Strange as it may sound, holding on to wealth often turns out to be harder for families than getting it in the first place. The majority of wealthy Americans fail to keep their fortunes in the family for more than a single generation--and many don't make it that far. Most people don't realize that the mindset you need to achieve wealth is not the same as the one you need to protect it. If you want to hang on to your wealth throughout your lifetime, and especially if you want to pass it on to future generations, this book about the psychology of staying rich will start you down the right road. Ted Oakley offers a no-nonsense, no-gimmick assessment customized to high net worth families with the most to lose.
