## Resource

In this bonus episode, Rob Henderson and I discussed a recent viral article in The Cut titled ‘ It’s Hard to See My Parents Live So Lavishly While We’re Struggling ’ and the broader issue of wealth inequality within families. Is it really true that millennials have it harder than boomers? Are downwardly mobile younger generations right to feel resentful? And how should wealthy parents protect their children from becoming spoilt and entitled? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
