To that end, a business minded philosophy and practice does need to be implemented in order to achieve lasting success. Ironically, the families that don't apply such clear guidelines or agreements about how the money will be managed end up with more emotional traumas than those that have had the foresight and determination to appoint a "CFO" as such. For any kind of "plan" to work you need the members to that "plan" to be united in their objectives. Without that, failure is sure to ensue. Great article Jason. Keep them coming!

You're so right. There are many emotions involved in family finance, so communication and understanding of responsibilities, especially that of the family CFO, is key. Thanks also for sharing the book. .-= Jason @ One Money Design´s last blog ..<a href="http://onemoneydesign.com/can-money-buy-happiness/" rel="nofollow">Can Money Buy Happiness?</a> =-.
