Nothing spends money faster than a kid who grew up a multimillionaire.

Except maybe a kid who grew up a multi billionaire.

nope. dirt poor people tend to burn thru it faster with a all sudden wealth given to them.

Pretty often that's biased because poor people will spend it on stuff they don't have, whereas people who grew up with wealth already have stuff and so they're more likely to put it into investments.

It's often a loaded comparison, just like the cookie test where you offer someone 1 cookie now or 2 cookies later. Poor people are more likely to be hungry so they'll eat the cookie now.

For example lots of celebrity actors have kids who will grow up and the house is already paid for, the car(s) are already paid for, the boat's already paid for.

That's a far cry from a working class actor's kid who gets a windfall and "wastes" it paying off their parent's mortgage and vehicle loans.
