When Bequeathed Wealth Impoverishes You

When Bequeathed Wealth Impoverishes You

When you struggle to realize a big dream, you are forced to improve yourself into a person who deserves that dream.

Some people have their dreams fulfilled through shortcuts such as a large inheritance or lottery winnings. They may accomplish your dreams, but skip the process of building your characters. The net result is you can’t handle that wealth for long because you are not wealthy from the inside.

An overflowing treasure cannot compensate for the lack of character.
