I think money is easy to spend if you didn't work hard for it. I pity them because if they mismanage their cashflow they may end up with nothing. Hard earned money will still be use into good investment because you will think twice before you let it go. But on the other side, they are lucky to be instant rich. They must learn how to handle it properly.

Yes ,they are so lucky to have good chance,but if they don't realise how precious the money is ,they will waste them one day.

There is an old saying in China, a lean camel is bigger than a horse.That is to say,although they don't know how to make money,they are poor one day ,but they are still richer than most of people.

Yes, rich 2nd generation get lucky tickets since born, which means that they don't have to struggle so hard like other less lucky people. But if they spend valuable time idling away and not woking hard at all. The fortune inherited from their parents can also go away like running water. Diligence is the indispensable factor to success, the rich kids are no exception to the rule. As far as I know, there are still a great many rich generations striving very hard for their goal. They never rest on the laurels.

Nothing comes cheap and easy without struggle, atleast money didn't. If you have got money cheaply and without struggle then its bound to go away from you. Its the hard earned cash you care for and spend dime by dime. You never take seriously the cheap money and it just flies away.

To be successful, you have to work hard. Maybe their parents and their grandparents did work hard that's why they're rich.

Their parents did word hard before,and now they can get the money easily.The struggle will never end,if they want to be rich forever.

As for me, hard-earned money is way different from money or status that you didn't earn yourself. I think that to be rich and stay rich, the next generation in the family should know something more about the business and learn a lot more than they thought they know. In that way, they will know the whereabouts and the whatnots of their business. Still, in doing so, they have to earn their right to really appreciate the success and the money that comes with their territory. Some are born lucky but even luck and money come and go.

Family business needs the second generation to carry on.So they must learn something about the theory of business,or they will fail.

I don't think all of them are useless, it actually depends on how they were taught to take care of the richness that was passed to them, it depends on their values. Not all rich people spends money just like that, some needs to protect their richness/businessess so that they can be saved from poverty and still can pass the legacy to the next generation. Others may think that money comes easily to them, i think differently, ofcourse they are also doing something to make a good cash flow. If they have a lot of business, ofcourse they are working hard for that business to be stable and provide financial support to them.

Yes,you are right.Some of rich people still work hard,or even harder than their parents.All the saying goes,it's easier to get money than to keep it.Some young people can do it now.
