7 keys to a successful personal financial plan
Just as strategic operating and succession plans are critical to the success of your business, similar attention should be paid to your personal financial plan. After all, business decisions can have financial, tax, and estate planning implications for the business owner and the business owner’s family. Learn how comprehensive wealth planning integrates business and personal planning to create a successful financial and legacy plan by addressing issues such as cash flow planning, creating wealth outside of the business, individual income tax planning, and estate planning.
