I've noticed that older people in the middle and upper class are motivated by their cohort peers think, and have the FUD (fear uncertainty doubt) sections of the brain react to gossip + headlines. Most inheritance that is passed down is done so without incident and excitement.

One of my unpopular opinions is that well-off parents shouldn't be making teenagers and young adults work crummy jobs at McDonald's, Amazon, etc for access to tuition and other allowances. I even think it's artificial even to make them work a low-skill service or blue collar industry job at a local firm, but at least there's more room for growth, learning to negotiate, and pick up on red flags of bad employers. But really, it's obnoxious when a spoiled brat works a low status job, serves in military infantry (or worse, brags about non-combat roles), etc and grows an inflated ego instead of humility.

Working-class has plenty of idiots, sumbags, and what far-leftists termed scabs; not some ideal to accessorize your kids around. If a parent doesn't want a nepobaby, they need to put some effort into teaching their kid how to carve their own path and instill some virtue during the process. Lots of them have trouble confronting that 90% of society is fake and gay.
