Building a Legacy That Lasts: Family Planning For The Next 100 Years
Join us for an exclusive mastermind in St. Kitts, where a select group of high-net-worth families will gather to craft long-term family strategies rooted in values, governance, and generational wealth.
This event is designed for a handful of ultra-high-net-worth individuals (mostly couples) who are ready to create a comprehensive 100-year plan for their family.
If you’ve ever said to yourself, “I don’t just want to pass down money… I want to pass down wisdom, values, and real guidance,” this mastermind retreat is for you.
Mikkel Thorup - CEO at Expat Money®
The Theme: 100-Year Thinking
Most people plan until retirement. A few plan for their children’s lives. Almost no one plans for the third generation or beyond.
But the families that do take the time to build values-based constitutions, governance frameworks, and succession plans are the ones whose names live on.
This retreat is your opportunity to start building that level of clarity and intention. We’ll cover everything from family charters to dynastic trusts, from offshore legal structures to passing on your proprietary business wisdom as intellectual property.
This year's Mastermind is divided into two Workshops, each of which will have include unique presentations. We encourage people to attend both via the "Whole Enchilada" package, which will include an extra two days and nights at the resort...on us.
You’ll leave with a roadmap for the next century of your family’s growth, resilience, and unity.

Session Details
Below is a full breakdown of the ten working sessions from our first Family Legacy Mastermind. As our next event will be divided into two workshops each with unique sessions, the details will be updated as we get closer to the event. Each session is designed to walk you through a key pillar of legacy planning - from vision and family governance to execution and long-term protection of your assets and values.
Session 1:
Developing The
100-Year Mindset
Developing the 100-Year Mindset reframes you from owner to steward—shifting from short-term gains to generational vision, values, and governance—so you think in decades, not quarters, and lay the philosophical foundation for the rest of the retreat.
Session 2:
Values, Alignment, and Incentives
Defining the “why” behind the wealth: Families clarify their values and purpose, then draft a 100-year vision statement that will guide decisions, unify generations, and frame their dynasty’s identity.
Session 3:
Governance Documents: Constitution, IPS & Operational Guide
Turning vision into rules and systems. Hands-on guidance for drafting:
- Family Constitution (mission, values, rules)
- Investment Policy Statement (IPS) (wealth management principles)
- Family Operational Guide (decision-making, councils, conflict resolution)
- Letters of Wishes (personalized guidance for heirs)
Session 4:
Intellectual Property as a Dynastic Asset
Turning family knowledge into protected value. How to identify, document, and license proprietary systems (business methods, branding, processes) as family-owned intellectual property, generating perpetual royalties and control.
Session 5:
Advanced Estate Planning Structures
The legal backbone of dynastic wealth: Trusts, private foundations, and offshore structures. Why jurisdictional choices matter, and how to design robust 100-year frameworks.
Session 6:
U.S. Estate & Gift Tax Laws for Dynastic Families
The American tax reality: Overview of estate, gift, and generation-skipping transfer taxes. Shows how families can legally structure dynastic wealth to avoid devastating taxation across generations.
Session 7:
Building A Family Office: How the Ultra-Wealthy Stay Private, Agile, and in Control
This session is about bringing order to your wealth. You’ll see how to build a simple, owner-run system that protects privacy, saves time, and keeps the important things visible at a glance—what you own, what’s due, and who’s responsible. We’ll connect family values to daily discipline and establish continuity so your loved ones know exactly where things are and what to do.
Session 8:
Restricted Covenants
& Legal Guardrails
Embedding protections that endure: Explains how covenants, charters, and governance clauses can legally bind future generations to family values, asset protections, and long-term strategy.
Session 9:
Preparing the Next Generation: Education, Training & Family Culture
Passing on wisdom, not just wealth.
How to raise, educate, and prepare heirs for stewardship:
- Teaching responsibility and financial literacy
- Rites of passage, mentorship, and traditions
- Designing family retreats, councils, and cultural rituals
- Avoiding entitlement and fostering resilience
Session 10:
Closing Reflections & Commitments
A powerful conclusion. Each family shares key takeaways and public commitments. Emotional close that reinforces accountability, community, and the sense of beginning a 100-year journey.
*We will print a workbook for each family. Each presentation will be followed by 15-20 workbook exercises and filling in the workbook.
