[Tweet “It’s your money, you can do whatever you want with it. You can have no reason whatsoever; If you are clear in your intentions, with your attorney and drafting your estate plan, you can make any decision you want. There is no compulsion to give it to charity, to give to your family evenly, or otherwise. It’s your money, you can do whatever you want with it. #YourBusinessYourWealth”]
