3rd generation wealth starts falling apart. Think Joe Kennedy 1st, then John and Bobby and Ted sorta, then John John nice kid but no brilliate mind (RIP) pat Smith, druggie rapist, next gen? down the crapper. Morton Downey and Jr also comes to mind. Prescott Bush? look at shrubs offspring. By the 4th gen the riches exponetionally get distributed to an ever growing pile of neerdowells who squander into the poorhouse. Classic example, Andy Jackson the SOB, the Hermatige was sold for taxes in 1908 and his heirs died penniless in CA durinf the depression.
Riches are like the prosperous farmers of the 1700's. By the 1870's each farm was divided amongst 10 or more decendants making a hard scrabble barely living that resulted in the mass migration westward.

ya think Billy G the 6th will have the acumen of the Big Daddy?
