That is funny! Kind of like "survivors guilt"... only I think it's called "rich kids guilt". On the bright side, at least these kids have compassion for those less fortunate.

Thank you! my friends.

I was born into the 1%. but I will probably never see any that money because my values do not equate with those of the rest of my family. I love my family. But I hate their close-mindedness and greedy ways.

I am the 99% and I stand with the 99%

My humble advice... if you are born into the 1% accept the wealth you receive from that, but don't blow it or give it away. Set it aside in stable investments and let it grow. Go out into the world and live like everybody else... work for a living, volunteer when and where you can. Get some life experience. When you are old you will have much more wisdom. You will know what to do with the money you inherited so it will have the greatest positive impact on the world.

That is exceptional advice. I would accept the money, if any were being offered. I never ask for anything from them, I shouldn't have to. But Satan has his games, and I have mine.
