I’m not a parent. Does anybody worry about large inheritances spoiling the work ethic of offspring?
For me, this is the purpose. https://video.nostr.build/ee971e0be8b2a290f6fd479d79a66588c60adedbecb692fa01271ec25caa629a.mp4

That’s a psyop to increase tax revenue. Most of the great people that fill your history books came from rich families. It’s all about how you raise your children.
It appears like you’re assuming great parenting is everywhere. Maybe I’m pessimistic. What about the idea that rich people don’t have time to raise their kids so their nannies do 80% of it? Maybe that’s just TV shows and movies?
Mainly a tv concept. I find those are the people who make a million dollars a year and spend all of it. The people I know who are worth 9 and 10 figures spend a lot of time with their children. They understand they are investing in the future.
I know some spoiled rich kids. It does happen. Cant be sure what the prevalence is. I do think it matters how you raise them, but it's not only spending time with them - you have to avoid giving them too much free shit, especially in adolescence. They need to do some wage labor in their life, for someone who's not in their family.
I still have my kid go door-to-door asking neighbors to mow their lawn and shovel snow to earn money for things they want to buy. My kids will probably not have to work a day in their life when they get older, but I’m making sure they know what it means to work hard now (2 kids under 14). All about how you raise them.
Love to hear it. The world would be better with more fathers like you.
No. It falls into "not important/philosophical" bin of problems. Not blinding kid with obedience and dependence on authority "because it is this way" is way more important.
