Martin Luther King Jr. taught us that our actions today shape the legacy we leave for tomorrow. His life’s work is a testament to the power of intentionality, vision, and commitment to others. This #MLKDay, we reflect on how his teachings inspire us to take meaningful action and create a legacy of hope. Dr. King’s dream wasn’t just for his time, but for future generations. His vision encourages us to consider the causes and communities we can support to create lasting impact. Through acts of generosity, big or small, we honor his dedication to equity and opportunity. Did you know you can use your estate to make a lasting difference? Here’s how: 1️⃣ Support Charitable Causes: Include nonprofits or movements you care about in your estate plan to help advance the change you wish to see in the world. 2️⃣ Give Back to the Community: Whether it’s funding local initiatives or supporting programs that benefit your neighborhood, your estate can make a difference where it matters most to you. 3️⃣ Leave a Legacy of Generosity: Charitable trusts ensure your values live on by continuing to make an impact long after you’re gone. This #MLKDay, reflect on how your legacy can make a difference and honor the causes that matter most. #MLKDay #LegacyPlanning #EstatePlanning #HonorYourLegacy #KeyesLawGroup

Fantastic interview! This is my favorite Win-Win episode so far; very highly recommended. The world can be vastly better than it is today -- and it will be, if enough of us choose to make it so. This episode talks about specific dynamics we can leverage in order to make that happen. Enjoy! On Spotify: https://lnkd.in/evisDiC9 On Apple podcasts: https://lnkd.in/ePhRDbHS --- P.S. Liv is underrated. There are a lot of fake smart people out there who cannot actually reason very well -- they've just memorized smart-sounding things and repeat those without even fully understanding them, much less originating them -- but Liv Boeree is the real deal; the on-Twitter debates around AI x-risk last year made this extremely clear to me. Listen to people who can think, not just talk! Dwarkesh Patel and Tim Urban are two other great thinkers that come to mind and who put out great content.
Whatever your opinion is on Mr. Beast's methods, you can't deny that he has helped thousands of people. Chris Anderson, founder of TED, gives us his take on Mr Beast's generosity. #mrbeast #socialmedia #youtuber #tedtalk #charity #philanthropy

A person's genuine wealth lies in the positive impact they create in the world. This can be through acts of kindness, charitable contributions, or simply making a difference in someone's life. It's not just about material possessions but also about the legacy of goodness left behind. Research shows that individuals who engage in philanthropic activities tend to lead more fulfilling lives. By spreading kindness and compassion, we can truly measure our wealth in the positive change we bring to the world. #energyfinancial #Philanthropy #KindnessMatters

The Samaritan Car Care Clinic mission is to address transportation barriers. Access to affordable and reliable transportation is one of the biggest barriers to financial independence that low-income families face in the Greater Cincinnati region. The Samaritan Car Care Clinic supports economic mobility in two direct ways: 1) helping low-income families stay on the path to self-sufficiency with shared cost car repairs; and 2) offering low-income community college students the opportunity to participate in an auto technology co-op program that provides tools for them to use. They will use this grant from The Bell Charitable Foundation to help as many families as possible with direct repairs.
