Succession conversations break down when the generations are all working from a different picture. For Graeme Shaw, passing his Te Awamutu property down to daughter Marie and son-in-law Sam, that shared view comes from conversations steered by adviser Ed Wagstaff (Diprose Miller), supported by real-time numbers in Figured. With Ed keeping the next generation involved, and Figured offering an accessible view of the farm's live picture, Sam and Marie have taken on 50% of the farm as contract milkers, with plans to take over the rest within four to five years. It's a plan Graeme thinks is very achievable. Watch the full story → hubs.ly/Q04pg2VF0 #NZDairy #AgriAccounting

Waikato farmer Graeme Shaw has a target of not owning any farms by the time he’s 70. At 69 now, he says he’s on track. His daughter Marie and son-in-law Sam are set to take over Graeme’s Te Awamutu property, and already own 50% as contract milkers. But succession planning isn’t easy when most of the numbers live in one person’s head — which is where Figured and adviser Ed Wagstaff from Diprose Miller help get everyone pulling in the same direction. Their story is a great example of how smart planning, good teamwork, and clear visibility help one generation pass down their legacy to the next. Watch the full video → hubs.ly/Q04pg0Gq0

It's a problem Pinion Global's Derrick Deardorff knows well, and one Pinion has solved. See how → hubs.ly/Q04m511n0 #AgFinance #USAg
