There's an old saying that wealth doesn't last beyond three generations.
This saying is not a baseless rumor; it has facts to back it up.
The first generation, through entrepreneurship, accumulates countless experiences and life lessons. Many people rise step by step from hardship.
Naturally, they tend to be very strict with their children, but the second generation is completely different.
Take Chen Lu and Er Piya, for example. Born into wealth and prosperity, no matter how they were raised, they would still have a somewhat lax nature.
The third generation is again completely different. Putting aside whether the family fortune can withstand such long-term risks,
the children of the second-generation wealthy have, in some sense, completely detached from ordinary social classes.
Because the second generation lacks grassroots experience, the saying that each generation is inferior to the last actually stems from changes in family education.
