If in 100 lifetimes, you know you still could not hope to move the needle on your personal wealth, it would impart a certain feeling of pointlessness to a male existence.
I think many women could handle it better, because they’re not defined entirely by their work accomplishments.
Handling great wealth requires skill, and most modern folks are not up to the task.
In the “old days” this issue was addressed by families who gave the children of wealth “tough love” to develop the necessary discipline.
That means that such children should have _less_ freedom than other children, _less_ discretionary income than other children. That means that drug/alcohol use and youth sexual activities must be strictly banned with the rules strictly enforced.
That means that such children must do _hard_ work, including _hard_ physical work.
Then as adults they will be prepared to reach whatever potential they may have—despite the great wealth.
Yeah, just look at Oprah, Melinda Gates, ex-Mrs. Bezos and Mrs. Jobs. All leaning so far left they are sliding right out of their Louboutins.
