[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I married into a wealthy family worth about $20M. It's been wonderful in nearly every way and I am so grateful to be in this position. In-laws gave generously over the years until they passed away and we inherited 1/4 of their estate. In life, they funded private school, 529 accounts and hosted us on family vacations. I hope to pay it forward to my kids. They were lavish in some ways - pricey real estate, but practical in others - never flew private, but did fly First. I appreciated that they were not heavy-handed with advice or expectations. Never felt any strings attached to their monetary gifts.   [/quote]

This has been my experience too. DH and I can work at meaningful jobs we love and the kids can still go to private schools and nice vacations. We don't have to save for college.[/quote]

Yeah it’s interesting to me that people don’t think 20-30m is enough for generational wealth. That’s just nuts. My parents have around that and they gave me cash for my house and I dont really have a lot of money stress bc I know they’ll always help out. Sure 100m would be lovely but at that point it’s just more…stuff. [/quote]
