If you are giving to charity, you may be doing it in the least efficient way possible. The instinct is to write a check.

The better move is almost always to give appreciated assets instead.

The number on the offer sheet is not what you keep.

After taxes, after the reserve is set aside, after near-term expenses are accounted for, the number you actually walk away with is different. The business owners who feel most prepared after a sale are the ones who planned around that number, not the one at the top of the term sheet.

Years go into building something worth selling. If a sale is in your future, the planning conversation is worth having before you get there.

The first thing you do with the money from your business sale is not invest it.

Set aside the tax liability first, and do not touch it. Many people know the bill is coming, but it still surprises them when it does.

Here’s why.

A Trump Account is a government-funded, tax-advantaged investment account designed to provide every American child born between 2025 and 2028 with an initial $1,000 deposit to jumpstart their long-term savings. Parents can manage these accounts as custodians and contribute up to $5,000 annually, with the funds automatically invested in American companies until the child reaches age 18.

WHO?
Any child under the age of 18 can open a Trump Account. Only children born between 2025 - 2028 are eligible for the $1,000 deposit.

WHAT?
Tax-advantaged account that becomes the child's at age 18. Withdrawals for eligible expenses like higher education or a first home can be taken with no additional penalty.

HOW?
Maximum annual contribution of $5,000. Then, at distribution, taxed at ordinary income rates.

WHEN?
Your child can be enrolled by using IRS Form 4547. Accounts will be opened on July 4th, 2026.

A 2025 NEFE poll found that 61% of U.S. adults say their high school never offered a personal finance class. 82% wish they had been required to take one.

The gap between those two numbers is where many financial habits—both good and bad— take root.

For families who've built real wealth, the question isn't whether to have the money conversation with your kids. It's whether you have a system for it.

A lot of succession plans look great on paper until you run the numbers. The delta between a PE-backed valuation and what internal buyers can realistically finance is one of the most overlooked challenges in business transition planning.

With April 15th behind us, we would like to share a few practical tax tips:

• If you were due a refund(s) which you have not yet received, you can track the progress at IRS.gov or mypath.pa.gov. Both sites allow you to access your tax information without creating an account.

• Make quarterly estimated payments if required (April, June, September, January). The IRS has mandated all payments be made electronically; Pennsylvania requires payments over $15,000 be made electronically but encourages all payments to be made electronically. If you miss a deadline, pay as soon as possible as it will reduce any potential underpayment penalties.

• Review the tax withholding from your job or retirement benefits; consider adding Federal withholding from your Social Security benefits.

We are here to help – please reach out if you have any questions about your tax liability or tax withholding and payments.

Every client cares about taxes.
Not every portfolio is managed like it.

Tax drag is one of the most consistent and overlooked costs in a high-net-worth portfolio—and in many cases, it's avoidable.

Here’s why the net number is the only one worth watching.
