Thanks for listening to my very first episode - I hope you'll stick around for the others!
Summary
In this episode, I talk about my respect for Voletta Wallace - the mother of the famous Notorious BIG. With a background as a schoolteacher, she was thrust into the unfamiliar world of estates, music rights, and money when her son died. She may not have intended to think about succession for her grandchildren instead of her son, but she successfully grew Biggie's estate from $10 million to $160 million over the past 3 decades.
What to do next
