TED is a nonprofit organization devoted to spreading ideas, usually in the form of short, powerful talks (18 minutes or less). This month, we'll discuss "A New Way to Look at Inheritance." Is inherited wealth a powerful tool or a destructive influence? David York thinks it can be both, depending on how you define and use it. In this thought-provoking talk, he argues that we need to stop envisioning intergenerational wealth transfer in purely financial terms and start thinking about them as opportunities to share values and connections to the next generation. David York is a principal with the Salt Lake City law firm of York Howell and Guymon, where he practices law in the areas of estate planning, tax, business planning, and non-profit entities. Joins us for this interesting video lecture and post-lecture discussion facilitated by Beth Roberts.
