[quote=Anonymous]Wealth may pay, but it may not stay — that’s a piece of conventional wisdom that appears to transcend cultures. A Chinese saying that goes “Wealth does not last beyond three generations”, for example, is essentially stating the same belief as to the American expression, “Shirtsleeves to shirtsleeves in three generations”. And data does back up these aphorisms. A groundbreaking 20-year study conducted by wealth consultancy, The Williams Group, involved over 3,200 families and found that seven in 10 families tend to lose their fortune by the second generation, while nine in 10 lose it by the third generation.[/quote]
