Me, I haven't, but I dated a woman who had a daughter by a guy whose family was VERY well off, to the tune of 100's of millions of dollars.They owned an Insurance company that operated all over North America/Europe/++, insuring ships/oil companies/federal/state stuff.
The guy was no father to the daughter whatsoever, he claimed the woman got pregnant by him thinking she'd get a lot of money from him. She asked for and got $800 per month child support. His parents and Grandparents had nothing to do with Bridgett.
He got $19K per month spending money, his residence, the penthouse whole top floor overlooking the beach in Honolulu and cars/plane all paid for. The $19K per month was solely spending money. Pretty sporty !!
Another guy, Steven, my younger brothers party buddy received $9K+ per month his Dad was a stock market and real-estate [vast # of apartments][land developer] guy around Cinncinati, Ohio. Steven was a great guy, funny as could be and wheeled and dealed in high dollar cars.
Anybody know one of these Lucky Types? President Trump book Art of the Deal, he called them the lucky sperm group kids.

No but I’ve known a few guys that married or were born into families with large farms and land. Not a bad deal.
I can’t imagine the kind of trust funds that you described. I’d hate to think how I would have turned out with that kind of money at 18 and never having had to go through and be toughened up from getting up in the morning and deal with work or bosses that I didn’t like and other struggles. At an older age where I could enjoy and appreciate it with some life experience what a benefit.
As a young teenager, I asked my dad for a dollar. "A dollar!!" he said, "what did you do with the one I gave you last month"? So to answer your question... yes, me.

The first guy I mentioned, his day consisted of a few tokes of the best weed money could buy, quicky shower, breakfast, then a drive in one of his ferrari/lambo,, or have his Captain take him for a yacht ride. Always a hot babe or five around, $$,.
I've known some friends born into land and business families, someday they'll be set financially.

I know one guy. He receives $16k a month just for fun money. He’s a solid dude that you wouldn’t know is a trust fund baby. Extremely generous with his close friends and does some cash gifts to people he meets that need some help up.
He’s traveled the world a few times, but in a low key way - Backpack, hostels, back country, and tries to immerse himself in the local culture.
He says he’ll never get married, but has a long term girlfriend.

Some on my Mom’s side of the family ate in this demographic. One if my cousins was able to basically retire at 30. For pure entertainment he built a multi million dollar home in Isle of Palms, S.C. That side of the family is as weird as they are rich.
I didn't know him but I met L. Irvin Barnhart on safari in Cameroon once. For those that don't know who he is, he was a very well known big game hunter that won the Weatherby Trophy. Hunted all over the world. He was an orphan and got adopted by a couple that was big time into oil. So he was raised in a very rich way and never had to work. He filled his years hunting and fishing. When I met him he was as down to earth as an oilfield roughneck and a heck of a nice guy. He could afford the best and could have been in the rich high society circles but he preferred a safari camp in Africa.
You get out of life what you are willing to accept. If you ain't happy, do something about it!
Lived next door to a kid from Mexico that was attending TCU. His allowance was 40K a month... BTW, he flunked out of TCU.
DANG, $40K..
The guy Steven I mentioned, $2300 per week and not a bill in the world, that's a lot of money to this po-boy.
Bridgett/Daughter of $19K month guy, she [11 years old] spent six weeks of her summer in Honolulu with her biological dad. Everything I know of the guy came through her.

A good friend of mine is born into some $$. But you’d never know. He did 20 years in the marines, then little time as a firefighter. Now he just works out and lives a cushy life in Florida. His parents business grosses million a day.
My old neighbor, Canadian who came to the desert as a snow bird for few weeks a year, was a self made millionaire. Before he retired, that summer I remodeled his house. He only Spent one season down here as could only play so much golf or lay by the pool. Sold his house and bought thousands of acres to start a farm. He was one of those guys that you’d never know he had more money than he knew what to do with. Went to a nice dinner one night. He was wearing sweat pants. Lol. A car dealership has his picture on a wall that says not to judge costumers by their appearance. I guess he went in to truck dealer, looking like a hobo, couldn’t get help. But the Guy that helped him ended up selling him 6 trucks that day.

All of them do something better than the 30-06, but none of them do everything as well.
My stepdaughter has a trust fund.... her family is very wealthy and her grandfather died young and left her a trust fund... I don't know the specifics but it's in the many of millions. She is a nurse and works when she want's. Life is different with that kind of safety net

I worked with a guy that married the daughter of the founder/owner? of Baker-Hughes oil rig company. Thats's Hughes as in Howard Hughes. It's been a while so I don't know if he is still married to her. I know a guy and have met his wife whose maiden name is Zamboni. Yes, that Zamboni. She is a serious Arabian horse chick winning big events in the 10s of thousands of dollars. She didn't want for much when she was a kid. She grew up with my wife's horse trainer.

Welp, pretty disappointed watching that. Never did figure out how the monkey statue or the fire extinguisher fit in to the sermon, but honestly only caught a few words here and there.
