I’m a therapist to the super-rich: they are as miserable as Succession makes out https://t.co/E4tqCVsOZB

サクセッション (テレビドラマ)

I hear this from my clients all the time: “What do they want from me?”; or “How are they going to manipulate me?”; or “They are probably only friends with me because of my money.”

へええ。金持ちになると誰も信用できなくなるんだ？

 Too many of my clients want to indulge their children so “they never have to suffer what I had to suffer” while growing up. But the result is that they prevent their children from experiencing the very things that made them successful: sacrifice, hard work, overcoming failure and developing resilience. An over-indulged child develops into an entitled adult who has low self-confidence, low self-esteem, and a complete lack of grit.

なるほどねえ。金持ちの子供はだめになるんだね。

へええ、金持ちは3代続かないってどこでもいわれるんだねえ。

貧困は何代でも続くけどね。
