[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]*shrug*. As a trust fund beneficiary who knows lots of other TF kids, this has not been my experience.

Most TF people I know either are high earners or are not working to focus on raising their kids. I make $350,000 and the only thing I will do differently than any other earner is retire sooner. I will be done at 53. [/quote]

I agree with this. [b]Most I know with significant family money spend a lot of time and energy trying to prove that they are just as good at their jobs/lif[/b]e as someone with no money. [/quote]

+1. In fact, for some it is quite a sensitive topic. I don’t think you can generalize. I know hardworking, successful trust fund kids, and I know some that are a total waste. However, I know about an equal number of people from poor or modest backgrounds in each category. [/quote]

+2.  All the trust funders I know are pretty much like everyone else I know:  went to prestigious private schools, Ivy or similar and hold jobs in medicine, law or finance.  They work hard too. The only difference is that most retire at 55 or so and have no problem switching from private to public sector.[/quote]
