The Generational Wealth Code: A Tax-Smart Roadmap to Financial Independence
"Most financial books tell you to save and invest. John Vento invites readers to think about how what they’ve built may be preserved and passed on. With four decades as a CPA and CFP®, he understands what advisors often miss: most investment decisions are tax decisions. Anyone serious about building lasting wealth for the next generation needs to read this."
—Michael Sincere, Author of Understanding Stocks and Understanding Options
"The Generational Wealth Code masterfully translates decades of tax smart planning into a practical blueprint that every family can use. It’s rare to find a book that is equally empowering to first time savers, seasoned investors, and professionals guiding clients toward real financial independence."
