Building a Family Legacy That Goes Beyond Wealth with Vince Covino (Ep. 69)

Building a Family Legacy That Goes Beyond Wealth with Vince Covino (Ep. 69)

Many families spend years building wealth, yet far fewer spend time discussing the values, relationships, and purpose they hope that wealth will support.

What would future generations remember if all they had was the story your financial decisions told? How do advisors help families create a legacy that’s measured by more than investment returns?

In this episode, Greg DuPont welcomes Vince Covino, Founder of VC Strategic Capital, to discuss how his view of financial planning changed after a significant personal transition. Together, they explore how meaningful legacy conversations can strengthen family relationships, why financial advice becomes more valuable when it reflects a family’s purpose, and how capital allocation can express personal values. Vince also shares why advisors can play a much deeper role by helping families think beyond products and toward the lives they hope future generations will inherit.

Key takeaways:

  • Creating space for honest family conversations about values, purpose, and the legacy parents hope to leave behind
  • Looking beyond portfolio performance to align financial decisions with personal meaning and long-term family goals
  • Helping families use wealth as a tool that reflects who they are rather than simply what they own
  • Guiding future generations through thoughtful discussions that strengthen relationships before wealth transfers occur
  • Reframing the advisor’s role from investment selection to helping families make purpose-driven financial decisions
  • And more!
