Silvia Costa has sat in the living rooms of 31 ultra-high-net-worth families — worth an average of $600M — and asked them one question no financial advisor ever will: "What do you want to tell the great-grandchildren you'll never meet?"

What comes out is not investment philosophy. It's something far more valuable.

She spent two decades producing "The Business Profile" for CNBC Europe, BBC America, and Financial Times TV across 72 countries. Then she walked away to document the human side of dynastic wealth — what it's built on, and what destroys it by the third generation.

The Art With Truth Framework:
→ Never arrive with a script. The story tells you what it is.
→ The ending is almost always connected to the beginning — find the thread first.
→ Contradictions aren't problems to resolve. They're the truth.

One member in California said at the end of his filming session: "No more therapy for a month — this was enough." Another member filmed hers while receiving chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer. Her family now visits her gravesite in Miami and scans a QR code on her headstone to watch her speak directly to generations she would never meet. That is what a legacy film actually does.

What thriving multi-generational families share:
→ Family unity held as non-negotiable — not agreement, unity.
→ Emotional capital: the ability to process love across generations.
→ Values transmitted alongside wealth, not after it disappears.

80% of R360's membership are first-generation wealth creators. The research is clear: without the story behind the money, the money is gone by generation three. Silvia Costa has built the system that changes that.
