Instead of working solely on growing your business or your assets, the Contrarian Wealth Protection and Risk Management Philosophy asks you to consider your overall situation, developing strategies to address the worst-case scenarios so that your business partners, ex-spouses, children’s spouses, the government, and creditors cannot strip you of your hard-earned assets. It is this contrarian approach to risk management, and the philosophy that runs through its genes, that a wealth holder should adopt if he aims to keep his wealth.
