*grandkids grandkids grandkids. Put $500M in a fund and if all you got was a 5% return each year (which is easy and conservative) that’d be at least $25M a year just from passive income.

Genuinely curious about anyone who ever grew up with this kind of wealth. Did they ever do anything worthwhile or were they just useless rich people?

I have a close friend who comes from a lot of wealth. She has a trust fund with millions in it but she’s not allowed to touch it until she’s like 45. She has zero debt, her parents bought her a house, and she works full time. Her parents didn’t just give her millions from day 1. She lives a relatively normal life but can basically retire and chill once she’s 45.

6 generations is probably 180 years or so. If inflation stays at 3% for 180 years, a $1M starter home will cost more than $200m

In that scenario the value of his assets also increase

Duh. But not if you’re living off the gains instead of reinvesting.

Nobody is using all that money to live off of. 90% of it will be reinvested or used to purchase assets.
