My comment in this thread is about a family i met travelling. The three adult kids and the mom were extremely wealthy. As i got to know them, the breadth of their wealth was even greater than i had thought. They even had their own family charity they had so much money. I estimate it to have been in excess of big players in he patch

Anyways, the adult children were quite open that they never wanted for anything growing up, and opportunities were available to them that would not be available to many other people on the planet.

However, once you ot to know them it was remarkable to see that they acknowledged the privileges they were given and took responsibility in not wanting to squander those opportunities.

It really made an impact on me. They did not shy away or try to spin their wealth which came fom the parents. They were genuinely appreciative and accountable for their career plans and choices. They took it as way to show their appreciation to their parents to actively take advantage of the opportunities given.

It was refreshing to witness when they eassily could have been like Paris Hilton
