In Part 9 of The Rockefeller Method series, Darren and Christina break down the most overlooked part of wealth building: your team. They reveal how wealthy families like the Rockefellers use a family office mindset, coordinated advisors, and clear governance to protect wealth for generations.

You'll learn why most Canadians focus only on products, while the rich obsess over alignment between accountants, lawyers, planners, and insurance specialists. They also show how to apply this in Canada using corporate-owned life insurance, the capital dividend account (CDA), and high cash value policies.
