Last week, ABC Australia's Gruen - a satirical panel show hosted by comedian Wil Anderson and featuring advertising industry experts - took aim at inheritance in their iconic segment 'The Pitch'. Creative teams from Youngbloods hilariously yet sharply highlighted the growing discomfort with traditional inheritance norms; encouraging Boomers to “spend their children’s inheritance.” youtu.be/g0s1T-nPkyI?... Behind the satire lies an urgent truth: Australia is on its way to gaining 400,000 new millionaires by 2028, driven predominantly by the largest intergenerational wealth transfer in modern history (UBS Global Wealth Report, 2024). This unprecedented transfer, which is echoed across the UK, US and many other wealthy countries, risks amplifying generational privilege and deepening inequality. At Random Estates, we think it’s time to rewrite the will. Through Voluntary Randomised Estate Division (VRED), estates—or portions thereof—are shared randomly and synchronously with the families of people who are born on the same day as you die, or the families of others who pass away on the same day, or both; turning legacy into a deliberate act of fairness and social balance. Inheritance doesn’t have to entrench privilege—it can expand possibilities. Explore more: randomestates.org 🔗 Read the full UBS Global Wealth Report: www.ubs.com/content/dam/...
