[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]19 times out of 20, they aren't very motivated to increase their income. Sometimes they have vaguely do-gooder jobs, sometimes just low paying vanity jobs. Unusual hobbies and sports (like one rich kid I know is a part time cricket referee, lol). [/quote]

NP. This describes me, my sister and my cousins. I’m the beneficiary of two trusts and my cousins have other family trusts on their side. With one exception, we all work in do-gooder jobs. [/quote]

I think this is a pretty good indicator as well. I have cousins who grew up pretty well-off. Rich probably not the right word as there was no inherited wealth, my aunt and uncle both came from solidly middle class families. But my uncle’s business really took off at the right time. So they had a large, historic home in a very desirable urban neighborhood, and my cousins did private K-12 and both went to fairly $$ private colleges and grad schools. Cousin 1 is a school librarian at a private elementary school, and cousin 2 is a professor at a very small liberal arts college. Definitely decent jobs, but they never had to give up the cool dream job (or not spend 8 years getting a PhD) for a more lucrative career, because their financial position was always secure. [/quote]
