Investing insights on building wealth that lasts for generations.
Dear reader,
Welcome — I’m Dorian Antešić. I’m a fiduciary financial advisor helping families and fellow advisors build wealth that lasts for generations.
On this site, I do two things:
Build my own family’s wealth, and
Help other families and advisors do the same.
Everything you read here is part of that shared project.
I’m not writing from the sidelines. I’m building a family, a practice, and a long-term plan of my own — and I invite you to join me on the same journey, in your context, with your family.
What I mean by “Family Wealth”
When most people hear family wealth, they think about one thing: money.
Portfolios. Properties. Account balances.
But true family wealth is much broader and deeper. It has three types of capital:
Human capital
The people in the family: their character, health, relationships, and ability to live well and do good.Intellectual capital
The knowledge, skills, and wisdom of each family member — and the shared understanding, stories, and culture of the family as a whole.Financial capital
The assets: businesses, savings, stocks, bonds, real estate, land, bitcoin, and so on.
Most of the world treats financial capital as the main thing and everything else as an afterthought. I believe that mindset eventually leads to ruin.
In my view, human and intellectual capital come first. Financial capital is a tool — important, powerful, but still a tool — to support and strengthen the people and the ideas that make up the family.
If you build a strong, connected family with shared values, love, culture, discipline, and competence…the financial wealth tends to follow, and it is far more likely to endure.
My role in your journey
My work sits primarily in the financial capital corner of this triangle:
Investing
Planning
Risk management
Navigating global opportunities
My role is to help you build, structure, and steward financial capital wisely, so that you can focus more of your time and energy on the human and intellectual sides of family wealth.
For me, this is personal.
I want to build Antešić family wealth — an Antešić Dynasty — not as an exercise in accumulation, but so that my family can be an engine of doing the right things: raising children well, supporting good work, backing principled projects, and serving others over generations.
My firm, Antešić Family Wealth, is simply the financial expression of that mission: a practice dedicated to careful stewardship of capital, researching and analysing investments with prudence and care for the families who trust me with their hard-earned wealth — including my own.
The world is not cheering for dynasties
You’re not imagining it: the modern world does not make it easy to build multi-generational wealth.
Short-term thinking is rewarded. Deep roots and long-term responsibility are often treated with suspicion. Talking about “family wealth” can quickly be misunderstood.
I believe healthy, principled families with strong values and wise stewardship are a net positive for society. But you will not build or protect that kind of wealth alone.
No one does.
You will need a team — family members, advisors, mentors, specialists — who understand what you’re trying to build and are willing to help you protect it.
This website is one way I support that work: by sharing what I’m learning, how I think, and how I invest.

This site is primarily for:
Families & individuals who want to build, preserve, and eventually transfer wealth that supports their values and their descendants.

If you think in decades, not quarters, you are in the right place.
