Nurturing your family’s wealth is important for securing their financial future. If done correctly, you’ll have enough money for goals like sending your child to an Ivy league college, buying a house or even long term generational wealth planning.
Most of us know this and are broadly aware that saving and investing somehow plays a part in this. But the problem is, nobody tells us how to help our families achieve financial freedom in our early 20s or 30s.
In fact, working professionals are known to discover the means to secure their family’s future in their late 40s or 50s. Lucky for you, we’ve compiled a 5-step family wealth creation plan that can help you get started early.
First off, you’ll need to compartmentalize your family’s finances. Why? Because you need to know whether your family will be investing together as one unit or individually.
Once you’ve had that talk with your family, it’s time to move on to the 5-step wealth creation plan and family finance management. We’ll start with the basics first.
Each member of your family may have different financial goals. For example, you might want to buy a new house, your significant other may want to start a business, and your parents may want to travel the world.
All of these financial needs need to be factored into when starting with family financial planning. Moreover, financial needs in this context also mean health insurance, outstanding loans, and others.
Sitting down with your family to discuss their individual financial needs can help you understand crucial pointers like what assets to invest in, what buckets do you need to fill, and more.
Managing wealth for your family is no easy task, especially if there are multiple working professionals in the household. There’s a lot of information about planning to be absorbed and you’ll have limited time.
That’s why it's best to consult a trained financial expert like a Cube Wealth Coach. They’ll have a conversation with you to understand your family’s wealth creation needs.
As a matter of fact, Cube Wealth Coaches will help you create a curated portfolio of investments based on your family’s wealth creation goals for the next 1, 3, and 5+ years.
This is, as you can tell, the opposite of what bank relationship managers are generally known to do - they sell you awful assets like bank FDs and underperforming mutual funds to boost their targets.
Similar to financial needs and goals, each member of your family will have a different risk profile. There are multiple factors that go into determining the risk that an investor can absorb like:
For example, the spending power of individual members of a household may be low or high. But we’re talking about a family so liabilities also exist. On the flip side, a family of 6 can have 6 different earning members or 1.
Either way, understanding the collective risk profile of your family along with the individual risk profiles can help you invest in the right assets for various wealth creation goals.
Goals ✅ Risk profile ✅ Now it's time to follow a wealth creation plan. It’s the game plan you’ll have to stick to in order to meet your financial goals (with the given caveat of risk profile).
To start with, a wealth creation plan can help divide your family’s wealth creation goals across various terms like:
Next, a solid wealth creation plan can help you invest in the right assets based on the correct risk profile for various goals and terms. Cube, for example, has simplified wealth creation with the Perfect Portfolio feature.
Remember that it is also important to revisit your wealth creation plan and portfolio to ensure that it’s doing exactly what you expected. Regular portfolio analysis can help with this.
A Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) allows you to invest in mutual funds in a periodic manner, say monthly, quarterly, or bi-annually. SIPs aren’t assets themselves but are a way to invest in mutual funds.

Mutual funds earn compound interest. That simply means your principal and interest will earn interest on top of them. This is known as the power of compounding that Albert Einstein called the 8th wonder of the world.
Investing in the right SIP mutual funds can help your family achieve financial freedom because of the compound returns that they’re known to generate. However, not all mutual funds can generate lucrative returns.
