Raised Healthy, Wealthy & Wise

Lessons From Successful and Grounded Inheritors on How They Got That Way

By: Coventry Edwards-Pitt

Narrated by: Coventry Edwards-Pitt

At a certain level of wealth, money makes parenting harder, not easier. Raised Healthy, Wealthy & Wise breaks new ground in the field of raising children amid wealth by hearing from the success stories: real-life children raised with wealth now grown into happy, healthy, and productive adults. Nationally recognized wealth advisor Coventry Edwards-Pitt draws on her many years of professional experience to interview successful heirs and uncover what works-and what doesn't-in raising wealthy children to lead fulfilling and productive lives.

While there is a lot of advice out there for affluent parents, this is the first book that allows us to hear directly from children who survived the gauntlet of being raised with wealth and emerged happy, healthy, and productive on the other side. Why do they think they have become successful? What went right? And how? Readers will find that these voices speak with a clarity that will inspire parents faced with these challenges to take the steps necessary to set their children on the path toward health and happiness.

Great book

Great read. I enjoyed it a lot. Useful lessons for all parents. Thank you Coventry.

Great insights for wealthy parents on how to raise successful inheritors

Well written, well read, actionable insights. Author relates case studies on kids who weren’t ruined by inheritance and what the parents did right. I’ve lived this personally and found the advice to parents was a relief as many of my gut instincts such as getting your child to work for money and leading a good example myself, instilling good values, were paths to success.

Disappointed with authors advice

The author interviewed children who inherited millions of dollars from their parents. The author’s goal was to provide advice for parents about how to pass on wealth to children that provided financial support, but avoided harming the children’s independence and happiness.

Unfortunately the advice was common sense that I already understood. More expert and insightful advice was not discussed in the book.
