Historian Studied 500 Years of Wealth, Here's What Actually Works | Johann Kurtz
Show Notes
Johann Kurtz joins Marty to discuss his new book Leaving a Legacy and the troubling trend of wealthy families choosing charity over their own children. They explore how the West has lost its culture of intergenerational wealth transfer, why billionaires like Warren Buffett are wrong to disinherit their kids, and the moral framework that once tied wealth to duty. The conversation covers the decline of Christianity's role in shaping how we think about inheritance, the hubris of modern philanthropy, and how to build thousand-year families that pass down more than just money.
