"...money immediately loses its value to those who haven’t had to earn it."

MAYBE QUARTERLY - Vol 2 / Issue 4 - Karmic Economics: Pure Capitalism:
"1. There is only so much money that you can spend in a lifetime

a. Your snot-nose kids don’t deserve the leftovers – the money immediately loses its value to those who haven’t had to earn it. When you give it to your kids, it is automatically lost – nice move you brilliant strategist, you! Furthermore, you create a culture of mediocrity as these kids buy out the nation with their monopoly money and control from a standpoint that they never had to rise to. I know, I know, you made them go to college and get a business degree and everything, right? You can’t know shit about a business unless you’ve spent some time in the warehouse with the people in production who don’t speak English (which, of course, they wouldn’t since your warehouse is in China or Taiwan). You’ve got to spend time in each and every department talking to the people who keep the gears turning. You’re kid doesn’t have time to spend learning; they have to work on spending all that money you left them! So they’ll hire dipshit consultants to spend their time making inaccurate yet highly impressive observations on some PowerPoint presentation (they too are business school graduates with no experience)."
