When you reach a certain level of wealth, life gets more comfortable — and more complicated. You have the person who invests your money, the one who does your taxes, the lawyer who handles your trust, the insurance person, the banker. All of them matter. All of them are good at what they do.
But here’s the part nobody tells you: they rarely talk to each other unless you make it happen. And when that’s the case, you become the one sending emails, scheduling calls, explaining the same story three different times, and hoping nothing important gets missed.
The Hidden Job You Didn’t Apply For
This is the unspoken role of many wealthy families — acting as the project manager for their own lives. You line up the meetings. You pass along the paperwork. You check whether your tax person knows about an investment change, whether your lawyer has the updated documents, whether your banker knows about the new property purchase.
You already have a business to run, a family to enjoy, a life to live. Yet without meaning to, you end up with a second job: making sure the people you’ve hired are on the same page.
What Happens When Someone Else Does It
Now imagine if you had one person — just one — who sits at the center of all of this. Someone who:
Brings in the right specialists when you need them.
Makes sure they share information and work from the same plan.
Tracks the deadlines, follow-ups, and moving pieces so you don’t have to.
This person doesn’t replace your advisors. They don’t manage your money or do your taxes. They make sure the people who do are coordinated, informed, and working toward your goals without you having to chase anyone down.
The Point of Contact You’ve Never Had
