Beyond the legal compliance technicalities and monetary effects, the wealth planning advice of Rudsel gravitates around helping the family understand and communicate their own values. I was thrilled to see that Rudsel collected his pieces from over the years into a single volume, which I believe is a useful tool for a family to think through their own planning goals.
