#Sociology of class. People inheriting net worth $20 million+ say they aren't able to have wealth discussions.https://twitter.com/nytimesbusiness/status/866035561030701057 …
Read the article and the thread and reflect on the poor framing of this story given the massive wealth inequality that exists.

Upper class parents should talk to their kids about how little others have and the financial challenges they DON'T face and what is 'normal'
-
Skewed perceptions of intergenerational financial security effect how politicians from well-off families operate.

Agree. Unfortunately, this article has inadvertently shown why class gaps perpetuate inequity...
-
...If rich people don't talk about inheritance with their kids & just pass on wealth then how do they really understand value of affluence?
-
If they want to give their money to kids who appreciate what it means, there are plenty of working class kids who need money for a leg up.
-
Funny that's not even a consideration for them, even though one of the interviewees now runs a not for profit.
-
Sad but unsurprised...

Urgh that article is actually gross...

Yes, insensitive. It needs critical thinking. Why can rich people avoid these discussions & think it's a burden? Could've been useful.
