Unlike most rich clients, who seek out financial advisors in the hope of getting even richer, the 18- to 35-year-olds at the Making Money Make Change conference in Nashville are here to do the opposite. As the children of millionaires and billionaires, they are among the heirs to the greatest wealth transfer in American history — some $16 trillion that will be passed down in the next decade alone. And they don’t want it.
Their rejection of the money they’re entitled to stems from the deeply held beliefs of many Gen Zers and millennials — a sense that great wealth should serve a greater good. “I was 21 when I learned I was going to inherit money,” a 30-year-old at the conference I’ll call Ash says. “That was really jarring because I had been involved in climate justice and fossil-fuel divestment. Like: Oh, my family’s been profiting off the companies I’ve been targeting.”
