Monitoring Financial Capital with the “Four Horsemen” Graph

Welcome back to the Wealth of Wisdom podcast with your hosts Tom McCullough and Keith Whitaker. This podcast is an audio companion to the book, 'Wealth of Wisdom: Top Practices for Wealthy Families and Their Advisors', where we focus on practical applications and how a family can use these tools exercises, and practices to learn, to develop, and to make progress. In this episode, Scott Peppet, President of Chai Trust Company, introduces the "Four Horsemen" graph, a powerful tool for families to monitor their stewardship of financial capital. By condensing information on investment gains or losses, fees, taxes, spending, and inflation into a simple visual, the graph helps families assess whether they are preserving their purchasing power and effectively managing their wealth for future generations.
