Step 6 (12:15) have children
7 (23:00) Adjust family vision
8 (29:10) Faithfully build wealth
9 (38:00) Develop self control and responsibility in your children
10 (42:45) Give children space and support with their spouses and families
11 (47:15) When grandchildren come… drop everything
12 (49:30) Make strategic big $$ gifts to children as they raise families
13 (52:45) Hand off the patriarch role to your children
14 (56:45) Facilitate all-family gatherings (think: Passover)
15 (58:30) Keep yourself spiritually, emotionally, and physically fit… til death!
But before all that, they start by talking about fitness for the aging, and the rare joy of being with your spouse for a few days with no kids around.
