Money after Life | Part 2: The futility of inheritance
Does your children's financial well being depend on you? We mistakenly believe that we can give our children a good life once we pass on, by leaving them assets. But the truth is quite different - Hashem controls their finances. If He decrees wealth for them, they'll have it without you. And if he decrees poverty, no money you leave can override that. This liberates you to use your time & money wisely while you're alive. Listen in to understand what our Sages recommend you do with them.
