In this short monologue, the speaker emphasizes that mentors are indispensable for personal advancement, arguing that even those from generational wealth often lack effective mentorship because wealth typically dissipates by the third generation. The speaker attributes this decline to parents not knowing how to mentor their children, and declares a personal commitment to become a mentor for his own kids, underscoring mentorship as a life‑changing factor.

And maybe not even them, because, you know, most generational wealth, they go broke in like the third generation. And so because they can't— the parents don't know how to mentor their kids. And so that's going to be another chapter in my life to mentor my kids, you know what I mean? But yeah, it's completely 100%. You need mentors in your life to change your life.
