when we talk about inheritance, it sparks conversation. it is a topic that affects us all, regardless of colour, creed, or ethnicity. 

Today on Global Network we talk about inheritance, wills, trusts and how to safeguard ourselves so that our wishes are carried out after our passing.

With thanks to Attorney Mannie Moodley for talking to us on this important subject.

Black tax is part of south African black culture. When a child starts working, they are obligated to financially assist their parents and younger siblings.

As a result, some youths do not have the freedom to live as they see fit because of the financial drain of taking care of their families. If they do not pay Black Tax, they face censure from their family and community.

Where do we draw the line as the youth? Is there a way to meet our family obligations while being able to live our own lives the way we choose?

Join us on Global Network as we explore the topic of Black Tax with an in-depth  eye.

Please note that this episode is in Xhosa, with verry little English used. Future episodes of Global Network will be in English.
