Elders Build Empires; Children and Offspring Wreck Them
There are a lot of successful businessmen today who toil and work hard to build stable empires thanks to hard work. The lucky patrons for such efforts would be the children and offspring who would usually be groomed to carry on the business. Sad to say, a change in business approach can be devastating even for millionaire businessmen. The difference lies on origin.
Businessmen who make a name for themselves start out with practically nothing. They chip in their saved earnings, hoping to make it big someday. Never will you see any down-line offspring of these successful men have a hard time. They have all the money to burn and will not live the hard times that their elders experienced. In short, rarely would you see a descendant become as successful as their father or mother mainly because they are too busy dreaming of lifestyles fit for a king.
You can call them lucky to have parents who are wise and witty. But put them on equal footing with aspiring tycoons today. You will note that they don’t even know how to come up with a simple business plan, market a product or plainly do a cost-benefit analysis. All they care about is profit.
Such a funny scenario. It really makes you think if these people did graduate because of wisdom or just because they had the money to pay for their grades. What a shameful act and you can just imagine the embarrassment they could get if it would be opened like a can of worms to the public.
