Doesn’t work for long though. First gen makes it, second gen saves it, third blows it. Seen this IRL a time or two. Only the seriously wealthy families, the real dynasties, hang in across many generations.
Even so, heard much from the DuPonts, Carnegies, Roosevelts, Astors, Vanderbuilts, Rockefellers, et al? They have things named after them because they threw down the money for a legacy. I think they knew how ephemeral their wealth would be.
