Rich Kids - Top Schools/University

[Jake2015]

Very much like Shannon now has made an "Ultra Success" subliminal and multiple people have mentioned how they perform better at the gym, feel more motivated etc.

That's how successful people are in general, something which their kids then also learn. They don't allow their beliefs to limit themselves.

If you were brought up in a "successful" home, it's very much possible that you get some of your successful parents habits and adopt their behaviors.

This is definitively not always the case, and we also have the few cases where rich people "pay their way in".

Thanks Blazedo, thats what I was wondering and thinking too.

My dad's a very successful attorney. We had money. I resented that he was never home, always stressed, and pressured me to be like him (someone whose traits and life trajectory I did NOT admire). I am free-spirited, and have always made my own path through life. I chose a career that helps people - personal training - and where I could be my own boss. I always wanted to spend my time with my kids, unlike my own dad. Now, I work from home, have a wife who has amazing work/life balance and brings home most of the money, and spend a lot of time with my kids. It's not always fun or easy, but to me, that's success.

My brother was just named to Forbes list of Top 1000 Up and Coming Financial Advisers. He's always been a good mix of me and my sister.

My sister - the youngest - worked her ASS off all her life. She never had that many friends, because she always had her nose in a book. Even at the dinner table, she read books. She graduated from a high school class of 800-1000 people, and was Valedictorian (head of her class). She went to Wharton (where Warren Buffet went for his first two years of undergraduate university) at Penn, and then worked her way through a few finance firms in NYC. She has been CFO of a company before the age of 30. Needless to say, she makes great money. But...she worked over 100 hours per week for years, was stressed, miserable, health suffered...marriage suffered...

Now, she is with a company that respects her, she has better work/life balance. I told her, "You did all that work so YOU can decide what you want to do - not so someone else can throw you around and abuse you." I think she's finally on a happier/healthier path. She believes in herself more.

End Rant, lol.
