<p>I circled back to the first post, then took a look at Forbes’ list of the Richest People in America.</p>
<p>Many of the Richest People in America made their own fortunes. I expect that to continue. I would not expect the children of the Wealthy and Elite to be (as) Wealthy and Elite as their parents. It takes an unusual combination of drive, ambition, talent, and luck to land on the Forbes lists. A child who grows up in extreme wealth will be less likely to possess those qualities than a child who grows up lower middle-class. The wealthy child may become a doctor, or teacher, or artist, or non-profit executive, but he’s not likely to found a new industry. </p>
<p>Many billionaires were not academic heavy hitters. Many entrepreneurs are thought to be dyslexic.
