Seems like it never dawned on some of the folks posting here that it's possible to A) do well financially; B) live comfortably; C) teach your kids the value of hard work; and, D) still leave something nice to help out your kids when you're gone ALL AT THE SAME TIME.

All the whining about kids just wasting what you leave them or throwing you in the trailer park nursing home sounds like people who made bad decisions projecting on others....
