[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the biggest 'leg up' is being raised by parents who are mature adults with no significant personality disorders, substance abuse, etc. We recently met with someone at our bank who mentioned that he deals with really wealthy families that often have one child with significant substance use, failure to launch etc. issues and that they have to put procedures in place regarding inheritances, etc. as a result. I'm pretty sure the adult children with all the issues didn't get these issues completely on their own. They might have inherited psychological issues or have them based on their upbringing. I frequently wish I had been raised in a psychologically healthy family even if it meant I never went to a private college, etc. Even if I ended up being an elementary school teacher back in my small hometown vs. my "prestigious career." I think being happy and healthy and grounded and all that is really priceless. [/quote] Sensible post [/quote]
