Joe Polish argues that massive inheritances kill ambition. He points to the Walton family, where heirs received roughly $44-45 billion and many chose leisure over work. The real inheritance should be values and mentorship, not money that removes a child's drive.

Chapters

But the most important value you have is your it. How did you build your mentors, what to do in life, how to be better husband, how to be better father, all the stuff we never document, all our experiences and everything. We just need the money and then say my kids don't have fire in the Valley or my kids are not good. How are they going to be good? We just gave them the money. The Walton family is a good example. Each of the Waltons have around 44,45 billion at least when they were given money. Most of them have done nothing in their life other than buy art, give it to the museums and go to the resources. Don't take away, don't give them so much money that you take away their hope and aspirations. Really so common. Most of the people we come across say my kids don't have fire. Depending you are responsible for that, not your kids.
