Finance ✦ Penny’s Take 🎧 Audiobook
The Voice of the Rising Generation : Family Wealth and Wisdom (Bloomberg)
Keith Whitaker, Susan E. Massenzio & James E. Hughes · 2021
🎙 Narrated by Paul L. Coffey
77/100
👍 Worth It
This one's unusual in a good way — it talks directly to heirs rather than to the parents holding the purse strings, and using the Odyssey as a framing device for individuation and entitlement actually works. It's a niche pick since it really only lands for families with real inherited wealth, but Paul L. Coffey's narration handles the psychology-meets-finance material capably.
