What if paying your children could be both legal and strategic?
For many business owners, the idea sounds risky, or too good to be true. In Hire Your Kids, Save Taxes, and Build a Legacy, Dr. Lilly Mbinglo, CPA breaks down how hiring your children, when done correctly, can be a powerful tool for tax efficiency, financial education, and generational wealth building.
This book removes confusion and replaces it with clarity.
The Conversation Most Business Owners Aren’t Having
Families talk about legacy, but few know how to structure it.
This book addresses a question many entrepreneurs quietly ask:
“Can my business work for my family today and tomorrow?”
The answer is yes, when it’s done right.
Dr. Lilly explains how compliant family employment can:
Reduce taxable income
Shift earned income responsibly
Teach children discipline, accountability, and work ethic
Create early financial awareness
What the Book Actually Covers
This is not a loophole guide. It is a compliance-first roadmap.
Readers learn:
When hiring your kids is allowed and when it’s not
What roles children can realistically perform
How wages should be structured and documented
Why payroll, recordkeeping, and intent matter
How this strategy fits into long-term tax planning
These are the same principles THE ARK NPS applies when advising business owners on tax strategy and family planning.
While tax efficiency is important, the book emphasizes something deeper: legacy.
Hiring your children creates an opportunity to teach:
Responsibility and consistency
The value of earned income
How businesses operate behind the scenes
The importance of structure and accountability
This approach aligns financial planning with values, not shortcuts.
“When done correctly, hiring your children is not just a tax strategy, it’s a lesson in responsibility, structure, and legacy.”
— Dr. Lilly Mbinglo, CPA
Planning With Purpose
Hire Your Kids, Save Taxes, and Build a Legacy challenges business owners to think beyond the present year and plan intentionally for the future.
It reflects the same philosophy that guides THE ARK NPS: smart strategies, proper structure, and decisions that protect both your business and your family.
