#130: Want to Know What's Turning the Best Talent Away From Your Agribusiness? with Lavinia Wehr, Founder & Creative Director AgSocial
23 Jul 2026
00:52:01
The best young operator in your district has already decided whether they'd work for you — and they made that call from their phone, long before any job ad went live.
In Episode 130, Ben Law sits down with Lavinia Wehr, Founder and Creative Director of AgSocial, the socials-first agency built specifically for agricultural businesses. Lavinia grew up on a sheep and broadacre property in Esperance, backed herself into business at 22, and now works alongside some of the country's most ambitious farming enterprises to shape how they're seen online — and who they attract because of it.
This conversation is for the family business that's growing, professionalising, and quietly competing for the same handful of high-calibre people everyone else wants. Lavinia and Ben talk through why a strong online presence has become one of the most practical recruitment tools a modern farm has, how the right content shows prospective staff exactly what kind of operation — and family — they'd be joining, and why the businesses getting this right are pulling ahead while others wonder where the good applicants went.
You'll hear how to start from a blank page without feeling overwhelmed, what high-performing agribusinesses are doing differently right now, and the small, surprisingly ordinary moments on farm that turn out to matter most to the people watching. There's also a candid thread running through the episode about the next generation — what it really takes to step into a leadership seat in a multi-million-dollar farming business, and why backing yourself early may be one of the most valuable decisions a young person on the land can make.
If your family is thinking seriously about who carries the business forward — and how you'll attract the people who help them do it — this one's worth your time.

Ben Law is a coach to some of Australia's most successful farming families. He was raised on the land — three generations of farming in his blood — and has spent almost 30 years and more than 40,000 hours alongside farming families, first as their financial adviser and now as their coach. Along the way he learned the truth nobody talks about: what makes or breaks a family legacy isn't the money — it's whether the family can communicate, get aligned, and prepare the next generation before succession arrives.
That's what this podcast is about. Each fortnight Ben sits down with farming families, trusted advisers and industry experts to unpack how to build a family that thrives across generations — strong in business, strong in relationships, and set up to hand over the farm without losing each other.

You've built something worth protecting. You've made the sacrifices, reinvested when others spent, and stayed the course when the easier path was right there. That discipline shaped everything. But what if the very thing that made your operation extraordinary is quietly becoming the thing that holds it back?
In this mini episode, Ben Law opens with a moment that will feel uncomfortably familiar to anyone sitting on either side of the generational fence — a conversation that started with a Landcruiser and a bull bar, and ended somewhere most farming families never quite manage to go.
Ben unpacks why the transition from one generation to the next so often stalls not because of money, not because of succession plans, and not because of bad intentions — but because of something far more human and far more fixable. He speaks directly and plainly to both generations: the one holding the keys and the one waiting for them.
What does it actually look like when a family gets this right? What happens in the room when the person with the most power chooses curiosity over certainty? And what is the one thing each generation can do this week — not next year, not at the next family meeting — to start shifting the dynamic right now?
This episode won't take long to listen to. But it might be the conversation your family has been circling for years.

MINI: You Young Blokes, Time To Stop Bellowing At The Gate
23 Apr 2026
00:05:48
There’s a message young men are hearing… and reacting to. But what if they’re reacting to the wrong part of it?
In this mini episode, Ben Law steps straight into a phrase that stirred up outrage across the world — and reframes it in a way farming families need to hear. Not as chest-thumping bravado. Not as “suffer in silence.” But as a call to responsibility, grit, and discernment.
Because there’s a moment every young bloke faces. The gate swings open. The paddock is bigger than he thought. The map is unclear. The pressure feels real.
Do you stand there and bellow about it? Or do you walk?
This episode speaks directly to young men in their late teens, twenties and thirties — especially those stepping into a farm, a business, or the weight of expectation. It challenges the quiet habits that stall progress — comparison, envy, complaint — and contrasts them with something far more powerful: decision, direction, and surrounding yourself with the right tribe.
But it also draws an important line — one many miss. There is a difference between discomfort and genuine struggle. Knowing the difference is maturity. Acting on it is strength.
If you’re raising sons. If you’re mentoring young staff. If you’re a young bloke trying to work out whether what you’re feeling is weakness or growth — this episode will land.
No lectures. No theatrics.
Just a grounded reminder of what built the country — and what will build your future.

In this episode of Wealth & Wisdom, your host Ben takes us with him on the journey from his trial retirement to discovering his life's new purpose. After receiving a rather stern ultimatum from his wife (which involved the threat of a "grisly death" if he stayed home and under her feet), Ben embarked on a quest to find a new challenge. That quest led him to the creation of this very podcast.
Ben's newfound mission became to explore and share the fundamental factors of success for driven and motivated producers. Through conversations with successful producers and some deep soul-searching, he uncovered three common challenges faced by prosperous families:
1. Maximizing Professional Advisor Impact:
Ben discusses how to find and work effectively with financial advisors, bankers, brokers, lawyers, and accountants, ensuring that they collaborate seamlessly for the family's benefit.
2. Family Strategic Planning & Alignment:
Achieving family focus and alignment becomes a crucial aspect of sustaining prosperity, and Ben delves into strategies to achieve this alignment.
3. Preparing the “Heirs”:
Beyond operational handovers, Ben explores the intricate process of preparing the next generation to take over the family business (or resulting wealth) successfully.
To help unravel these complex topics, Ben enlists the expertise of his co-host, Chloe, a seasoned professional with extensive experience working with family businesses. Chloe aptly dubs their approach as "kind of like a family office," but with a unique twist.
Ben and Chloe offer their insights and perspectives on these three critical areas, shedding light on the path to success for families, both now and across generations.

#52: The Voice Within: How Listening to My Intuition Ultimately Saved My Life with Trudie Payne, Grazier & Mum
17 Sep 2023
00:30:34
Today, we have a truly inspiring guest with us: Trudie Payne. Trudie, along with her husband Liam and their two children, Mitch and Bronte, manages a successful grazing operation in the heart of Central Queensland.
Trudie's life took an unexpected turn in 2018 when she was diagnosed with one of the most aggressive forms of Melanoma despite being the picture of fitness, happiness, health and drive.
In this captivating episode, we're going to delve into Trudie's remarkable journey – from her initial visit to a general practitioner who dismissed her concerns with a casual, "It's nothing to worry about," to the pivotal moment when a specialist in Brisbane delivered the harsh reality: she had a mere 6 to 8 weeks before the cancer would spread into her bloodstream, potentially becoming terminal.
Trudie's story is a testament to the power of intuition and the importance of heeding your inner voice. She shares how she overcame doubt, advocated for her health, and took charge of her situation. Her unwavering determination led to a series of critical decisions that, ultimately, became instrumental in saving her life.

#49: Tax Alert - Avoid The Hidden Tax Trap When Upgrading Your Machinery with Chris Eccles - Empower Accounting & Advisory
06 Aug 2023
00:40:48
In this episode, we're delving into the tax trap that will affect many farmers and graziers when purchasing new machinery.
For years, the question of whether upgrading machinery helps with tax has been a common concern, especially during the period of the instant asset write-off. However, with the government returning to pre-pandemic tax rules, understanding the tax implications is now more critical than ever.
To guide us through this complex subject, we have a special guest, Chris Eccles, accountant and director of Empower Accounting & Advisory.
In this conversation, Chris gives us an understanding of the new depreciation rules and what they mean for future equipment purchases. We’ll look at specific examples to illustrate the tax implications of upgrading machinery and explore scenarios involving different types of equipment, such as tractors, graders, dozers, trucks, and even round bailers. By breaking down the numbers, we’ll be demonstrating how depreciation, sales, and tax rates affect the overall financial outcomes.
For those looking to learn more about Chris and his insights, they can find him on the Empower Accounting & Advisory YouTube channel, where he shares numerous business tips. Additionally, interested individuals can visit the Empower Accounting & Advisory website and schedule a conversation with Chris:

#46: Grazing Cattle: From Climate Villains To Environmental Superstars with Dr Terry McCosker
22 Jun 2023
00:39:10
In this episode, we welcome back a special guest, Dr. Terry McCosker, Founding Director of RCS Australia and Chairman of CarbonLink. If you missed our popular episode on carbon credits, go back and checkout episode “#15: Carbon Credits: The Results Are In," where Terry shared invaluable insights about carbon farming.
Recently, Terry hinted at some exciting forthcoming data relating to large-scale carbon projects. The suspense built as he said, "I can't tell you about it just yet, Ben, we'll have to wait." Intrigued, I've been following up with Terry, and finally, he has given me the green light to publicly unveil with him three significant pieces of information he wants to share that could revolutionize how we perceive grazing's impact on climate and carbon farming.
During the episode, we dive into the specifics of the groundbreaking large-scale carbon farming project that recently received regulatory sign-off, exploring its significance and implications.
Challenging the misconceptions around cattle as climate villains, Terry presents compelling data on the carbon effects of grazing operations, shedding light on the true impact of cattle and methane production. Additionally, Terry explains the relationship that has been shown to exist between carbon sequestration, water, and its potential effects on global warming.

He was raised on the land — three generations of farming in his blood — and has spent almost 30 years and more than 40,000 hours alongside farming families, first as their financial adviser and now as their coach.

That's what this podcast is about. Each fortnight Ben sits down with farming families, trusted advisers and industry experts to unpack how to build a family that thrives across generations — strong in business, strong in relationships, and set up to hand over the farm without losing each other.

#123: Playing the Long Game: What High-Performing Rural Families Actually Do With Their Accountant with Sarah Becker, Director of Becker & Co (QLD), Chartered Accountants & Rural Business Advisors
16 Apr 2026
00:48:27
Most farming families see their accountant once a year — usually in a panic around the 30th of June. The families who are genuinely building something that lasts across generations? They're doing something fundamentally different. And it has very little to do with tax minimisation.
In this episode of the AgriCoach Wealth & Wisdom Podcast, Ben Law sits down with Sarah Becker — Director of Becker & Co QLD, Chartered Accountant, Trusted Rural Business Advisor, and Central Queensland beef producer — for a conversation that cuts through the noise around what it actually takes to build a rural family business that goes the distance.
Sarah is one of those rare professionals who lives both sides of the fence. She runs a multi-generational accounting practice her family founded 40 years ago, and alongside her husband Rob, she's raising the next generation on 16,000 acres in the Dawson Valley. When she talks about intergenerational wealth, succession, and the role of a trusted advisor, she's not speaking theoretically.
What separates the families who thrive over decades from those who stall? Sarah has a clear answer — and it's not what most people expect. She and Ben pull apart the difference between having a dream and having a plan, why the most important financial conversations rural families need to have are rarely happening, and what it really means for your advisor team to be "on the bus."
They also tackle some of the harder questions that come with building wealth on the land: what's the actual cost of leaving the next generation out of the conversation? Why do so many high-performing producers treat strategic planning like it's optional? And what does a healthy, productive rhythm with your accountant actually look like throughout the year — not just when June rolls around?
Sarah shares a framework for thinking about profit allocation that goes well beyond reinvesting back into the business, and offers a perspective on the relationship between personal growth, family culture, and long-term business performance that will resonate with anyone who believes the health of the family and the health of the enterprise are inseparable.
Whether you're the generation steering the bus or the generation being brought along for the ride, this episode will prompt a conversation worth having — ideally before the end of financial year.

#43: Cultivating Harmony: Tips for Building Stronger Relationships and Resolving Conflicts in Farming Families with Ali Flynn, Therapist, Facilitator, & Podcast Host
14 May 2023
00:53:48
In this episode of Wealth & Wisdom, we're talking about a topic that often doesn’t get enough attention: the value of strong family relationships for people on the land. Our guest, Ali Flynn, brings her expertise as a therapist, facilitator, mindset coach & host of “The Challenges That Change Us Podcast” to the conversation, sharing insights on how to improve communication and build stronger connections within farming families.
While it may seem like a departure from our usual focus on wealth and business performance, the reality is that family relationships can have a huge impact on both of those things. As the saying goes, it takes two generations to build wealth and one to lose it, and the statistics show that family breakdowns are often a major contributor to that loss.
Whether you're on the land, from the land or a professional adviser that serves the rural community, you’ll know that communication can be a challenge for most farming families. But with Ali's tips and strategies, you'll learn how to navigate those challenges and build deeper, more meaningful relationships with your loved ones.
If you're ready to cultivate stronger connections within your family and secure your legacy for generations to come, join us for this insightful and practical episode of Wealth & Wisdom.

#37: From Farm to Tourist Destination: Exploring the Potential of Tourism as a Business Opportunity for Those on the Land with Susan Lee, Tourism Advisor & Author
19 Feb 2023
00:44:41
Tapping into the lucrative tourism market for rural producers is a serious opportunity for opportunity for those on the land.
The reasons for starting a tourism business might be drought mitigation, evening out cashflow, supporting succession, servicing debt, paying boarding school fees or just savvy producers taking advantage of a unique business opportunity.
The problem is, it’s easy to identify an opportunity but difficult to get a viable business up and running. Producers are time poor, more often than not lack the experience and don’t know where to start.
My guest today is Susan Lee from CV Consult, a tourism consultant with significant experience in regional and remote tourism in Australia.
Susan has a book coming out soon which is a practical guide to starting your own tourism business. It’s designed to give families the short cuts to identifying, assessing and navigating the start-up of a successful tourism business.

05 Feb 2023

Our guest today is Kylie Wilson, a lawyer who has specialised in advising families in the rural space for well over 20 years. She is a partner at Holding Redlich which has offices in Melbourne, Canberra, Sydney, Brisbane and Cairns.

#122: Why Investing in Your Next Generation Is the Smartest Succession Move You'll Make with Kara Knudsen, Knudsen Cattle Co - CEO & Co-Owner | Nuffield Scholar | Board Member Nuffield Australia
02 Apr 2026
00:50:19
What if the thing holding your family business back… isn’t lack of opportunity — but lack of exposure?
In this conversation with Kara Knudsen, co-founder of a rapidly scaling northern cattle operation, we get a rare look at what actually happens when a farming family decides to think bigger, act earlier, and deliberately build something that outlasts them.
Kara shares the story behind their growth — from humble beginnings and hard seasons to building a business that no longer relies on family labour to survive. Along the way, she challenges the traditional idea of what a “family business” should look like… and replaces it with something far more resilient.
You’ll hear how they’ve approached developing their next generation — not through entitlement, but through responsibility, exposure, and real-world experience. Why stepping outside the farm gate can completely reshape how you see your own business. And what changes when you stop reacting to challenges… and start preparing for them.
There’s also a deeper thread running through this episode — around discomfort, decision-making, and the moments where things could go either way. The kind of moments most families face… but few talk about.
If you’ve ever wondered how some families seem to grow, adapt, and stay aligned while others stall… this one will get you thinking.

#32: Talking Succession Part 2 – The Handing On Generation (AKA The Oldies) with John Moor, Succession Planning Facilitator
18 Dec 2022
00:51:17
John Moor is back by popular demand. John is a highly experienced Succession Planning Facilitator and his episode #24 was one of our most popular so far. If you haven’t listened to it yet it’s worth going back for as the feedback has been amazing.
Due to the depth of this topic we decided to split into two episodes – the first addressing the younger generation (“the Young’ens”) and the second addressing the generation handing over (or what we affectionately call “the Oldies”).
In this episode, Part 2, we will be focussing on the handing on generation and how they should be approaching succession.
If you are in this age group and you are serious about getting ahead, it is important you also get your kids to listen to this episode. And any “young ‘uns” listening, get your parents onto this asap!
John has kindly given us two highly valuable resources – a “Succession Planning Health Checklist” and “Ten Things Our Younger Generation Want to Tell Us”.

05 Dec 2022
00:53:13
John Moor is back by popular demand. John is a highly experienced Succession Planning Facilitator and his episode #24 was one of our most popular so far. If you haven’t listened to it yet it’s worth going back for as the feedback has been amazing.
Due to the depth of this topic we decided to split into two episodes – the first addressing the younger generation (“the Young’ens”) and the second addressing the generation handing over (or what we affectionately call “the Oldies”).
In this episode, Part 1, we will be focussing on the next generation coming through and how they should be approaching succession.
If you are in this age group and you are serious about getting ahead, it is important you also get your parents to listen to this episode. And any parents listening, get your kids onto this asap!
John has kindly given us two highly valuable resources – a “Succession Planning Health Checklist” and “Ten Things Our Younger Generation Want to Tell Us”.

#28: THE DRIPPING TAP - Achieving The Impossible By Convincing McDonalds To Use Aussie Beef In Their All American Beef Burgers with Richard Rains
24 Oct 2022
00:52:47
Success leaves clues and if you’re the type of person who wants to learn what it takes to be successful then this is an episode for you.
This week on The Financial Bloke podcast, I have retired beef exporter Mr Richard Rains.
In this episode we’ll be discussing his passion for mentoring the next generation, dig into the secrets of his success, and uncover how he achieved the ‘impossible’ and persuaded McDonald’s to include imported Aussie Beef in their All American Burgers.
Prior to his retirement Richard was the major shareholder of Sanger Australia, one of Australia’s largest meat exporters.
He is most well-known for convincing fast food giant McDonald’s to include imported Australian beef in their US restaurants. McDonald’s has since become Australia’s single largest beef customer.
Since retiring Richard has served on several boards but his main passion is developing and mentoring young people coming through the industry. He is integrally involved in a number of mentoring programs including The Zanda McDonald Award (https://www.zandamcdonaldaward.com/).

#27: Death Taxes - Is The Tax Man Coming For Your Farm?
09 Oct 2022
00:47:30
We’ve all frequently heard naive politicians suggesting we “tax the rich” – which on the surface seems kind of ok, doesn’t it? But what I want any business owners - which includes farmers and graziers - to understand is that you are the “rich” they’re talking about. That’s because you own land and there is money in land, easy taxing money!
Today Tim Rivett and I will be discussing death taxes which I am hearing more and more politicians talking about in the media.
For anyone that was in farming back in the 60-70’s this should send a chill up your spine. You will probably remember something called inheritance tax which forced many a farming family into selling up and losing the farm when Mum or Dad died, as they couldn’t afford the death taxes.
We are all going to die at some stage and whether it is our parents leaving assets to us, or us leaving assets to our kids, the legislation of death or inheritance taxes will impact your family, so this is a podcast you won’t want to miss.

#25: Don't Let Them Make Agriculture The Villain with Mark Davie - Chair of The Australian Beef Sustainability Framework
12 Sep 2022
00:47:55
Agriculture seems to be being painted more and more as an environmental villain by vegan & environmental activists as well as the some of the marketing machines of the plant-based industry.
If you are sceptical that this issue is relevant to you, have a look at legislation being passed by ill-informed politicians in Sri Lanka, Ireland, Canada and The Netherlands and in our own energy sector. These should be our canary in the coal mine.
Today our guest is Mark Davie. Mark and I are talking about how important it is that Ag avoid being unfairly portrayed as the “villain” and whether we need to take back control of the narrative.
Mark is the:
Director of Keppel Brands
Director of the Ag Force QLD Cattle Commodity Board; and
Chair of The Australian Beef Sustainability Framework

MINI: Love Your Kids Enough to Say That's Not Good Enough
26 Mar 2026
00:05:34
What if the most loving thing you can say to your child is, “That’s not good enough.”
In this mini episode, Ben tackles a quiet pattern that shows up in farming families everywhere — not laziness, not bad intent, but standards that slowly soften over time. And when standards soften, performance follows.
It rarely looks dramatic. It looks like picking your battles. Letting small things slide. Telling yourself you’ll deal with it later. After harvest. After weaning. After the next busy season.
But what happens when “later” becomes the norm?
Ben draws a sharp line between being harsh and being clear — and explains why the families who build businesses that last aren’t necessarily tougher… they’re simply more consistent. More deliberate. More willing to correct early rather than repair late.
If you care about raising capable kids, building a resilient next generation, and protecting the culture of your family business without becoming cold or corporate — this one will challenge you.
Because the question isn’t whether you want high standards.
It’s whether you’re prepared to hold them.

#22: Kids & Money - Part 2 of 3 - Kids Under 12 with Tim Rivett
15 Aug 2022
00:52:33
Most parents want their kids to learn how to be good with money. They instinctively know that a failure to learn how to play the game of money will put their kids at a major disadvantage, making their lives so much harder. But, whilst the majority of parents want to help their kids, most just don’t know how the hell to go about it.
Because this this is such a hot topic with most parents, I decided I would try a Three Episode series on Kids and Money which I’ve called Money Muscles.
In this episode (Part 2) I’ll be joined again by Tim Rivett. We will be drawing on our almost 40 years of combined professional experience to discuss how we are educating our kids, who are under 12, about money.

For the younger listeners out there, if you are not too interested in estate planning, after listening to Kylie today you will get to understand why you should be very interested in your parents' estate planning as it will impact you, especially if you are in business in general or the business of farming and don’t want to lose the farm!
Ben Law is a coach to some of Australia's most successful farming families. He was raised on the land — three generations of farming in his blood — and has spent almost 30 years and more than 40,000 hours alongside farming families, first as their financial adviser and now as their coach. Along the way he learned the truth nobody talks about: what makes or breaks a family legacy isn't the money — it's whether the family can communicate, get aligned, and prepare the next generation before succession arrives.
That's what this podcast is about. Each fortnight Ben sits down with farming families, trusted advisers and industry experts to unpack how to build a family that thrives across generations — strong in business, strong in relationships, and set up to hand over the farm without losing each other.

#15: Carbon Credits: The Results Are In With Dr Terry McCosker
06 Jun 2022
00:57:41
Today’s guest is Dr Terry McCosker.
Terry and I are discussing what a Carbon Credit actually is and how they have the potential to substantially improve the overall profitability and sustainability of some farming operations, resulting in a magnification of a family’s wealth both now and intergenerationally.
The most exciting part is we are discussing the initial findings of one of the world’s largest Carbon Credit trials which Terry has been integrally involved in.
Terry is a Founding Director of RCS Australia which for over 35 years has provided integrated training, education and advisory service to the agricultural sector. He is an internationally acclaimed teacher and has worked in research and property management in both the government and private sectors for almost 55 years.
It has been said his ideas took farming out of a war with nature into an association with it. He introduced Australian farmers to the concept of ecosystem health and developed methods of measuring it, alongside financial health.
Terry has more recently focused his attention on using his experience, education and expertise to assist the farming community to identify and make the most of the opportunities carbon credits could offer.

#14: Preparing to Sell the Farm with Real Estate Agent Ben Forrest
23 May 2022
00:51:53
Today, Ben Forrest (Real Estate Agent and Partner at the Resolute Property Group) and I will be discussing the key things you need to know if you want to successfully sell a farm.
Most farmers and graziers are thinking about buying more land, not selling, but purchasing a new block sometimes requires the sale of some land to fund the new purchase. There are also those nearing retirement that will be either downsizing to a smaller block or selling up entirely and moving into town.
Selling any major asset is a complex and stressful process, so the best results are almost always achieved when you prepare well. The problem is that most of us haven’t got years of experience selling properties, so we will inevitably make some mistakes, unless we find the right people to help us navigate the complexities and avoid the traps that the inexperienced fall into.
As Benjamin Franklyn famously said, “If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail,” and with the value of farms these days, the cost of getting it wrong could be significant.

#121: Character Over Credentials: Building Success In Agriculture That Lasts with David Foote (Board Member - ACC, Cattle Australia, Laguna Bay)
19 Mar 2026

Character Over Credentials: Building Success in Agriculture That Lasts
Some of the most successful people in agriculture didn’t follow the neat, modern career path everyone now promotes — and that’s exactly the point.
In this episode, Ben Law sits down with David Foote — board member at Cattle Australia, former executive at Australian Country Choice, and a lifelong student of leadership — for a conversation that cuts through the noise around success, ambition, and what actually lasts in agriculture.
This isn’t a story about climbing ladders or chasing titles. It’s about what quietly compounds over decades: turning up when no one’s watching, learning before leading, and choosing environments that stretch you rather than flatter you. David reflects on the formative experiences that shaped his career — from hard lessons early in life to building scale inside one of Australia’s most influential beef businesses — and why so many capable young people sabotage their future by rushing the process.
Along the way, Ben and David unpack the tension every farming family feels but rarely articulates: how do you prepare the next generation for responsibility without entitlement? How do you build capability before authority? And why does curiosity often matter more than confidence when the stakes are high?
This episode will challenge how you think about leadership, succession, and the kind of character required to build something that outlives you — not just in business, but in family and community as well.

09 May 2022
01:02:02
My guest for this episode is John Moor, founder of GrowMoor Biological and a 6th generation producer from South Africa. John and I discuss his journey from being an average or mediocre dairy farmer to one of the top producers in the world and how he achieved it.

If you are the sort of person that wants to do better both personally and financially then then you will want to hear some of the wisdom John learned by surrounding himself with exceptional people and focussing on doing things differently to everyone else.
John is a bloody interesting bloke and today we are also going to get into how his perspective of what true success looks like when he suffered a life-threatening situation recently on a trip back to South Africa.
Ben spent over 20 years working with successful business owners and farming families which allowed him to unearth the timeless principles on how to successfully grow, protect and maintain wealth.

#11: Protecting Farming Wealth - Why Having Just A Will Isn't Enough with Lawyer Tim Rivett
11 Apr 2022
01:01:38
What happens to all the wealth you have built once you pass away?
I want you to ask yourself:
How do I want my wealth distributed when I die and what is the likelihood of that actually happening?
Do I want my family to get the wealth when I die or do I want to make a bunch of lawyers rich?
Do I want my kids to ‘fall out’ over my estate?
Do I want the government to get a big chunk of my estate in taxes?
And if you are in business or in the business of farming:
Will the business be able to keep going when I die?
These questions have just scratched the surface, but you get my point - estate planning is vitally important if you want to keep your hard earned wealth, in your family.
Today our guest is Estate Planning Lawyer Tim Rivett.
In this episode Tim and I are going to discuss what is Estate Planning, why just having a Will isn’t enough, the common mistakes as an estate planning specialist he sees people make and the things you can do to start sorting your estate planning out.
