Help for a noob

It is nice to do this when you know one of your family members is going to die soon but it's really not needed. You can make it through the game without doing that. Endgame you will have a lot of acadamies and scriptoriums so your family members will have pretty high influence and management numbers just by sitting in town.

Also it's good to give to old, soon to die generals, retinues you want to get rid off.
