You can try to sell your business. Selling a business is non-trivial. Especially if you're not close to it and don't know it. The cash you leave to your kids owning a business is upper bounded by how well your business does. Which, sure, could be better or worse, but most notably has a chance of being worth nothing. There are for sure many stories where a family business worked out great. But I would prefer an equal value in cash over a randomly chosen small business any day. Even if we subset it to the profitable ones.
