Twitter User Feels Hard Work Can’t Outdo Generational Wealth, The Internet Kinda Agrees

Financial coaches will give you all kinds of ways to meet your money goals. But not everything a self-help book or a coach says is practical, or doable for that matter. Privilege can make accumulating and creating generational wealth a lot easier (and the lack of it, a lot harder). Which is probably why this tweet by @ShubhamShawarma about how hard work is rarely the road to generational wealth.

Obviously, there are many other things a person needs along with hard work, to create wealth! And so Shubham’s tweet makes a lot of sense. It’s relatable too! I mean, the system is kind of messed up, and often, wealth is a result of chance plus hard work, plus a good network, plus social capital.

Rn I am entirely convinced no matter how hard you work,you can never beat generational wealth 😭😭

So, here are all the interesting comments on his post. Some people had a hopeful perspective on the topic, whereas others were more realistic.

It's like sacrificing your youth for that

Generational wealth takes "generations" to make. Jitna hai usme sukhi raho, jitna ho sake utna baccho ko dekar jao.

Concept of wealth is to accumulate it for future generations. Everyone wants better life for their kids than theirs. Generational wealth not only come with bank balance but also with networks, early initiation to the industry, already laid down procedures etc.

Dont agree completely. Might be true to a certain extent. But even generational wealth does not come easy. It involves taking risks, long term planning and hard work.

Chance is also a very powerful entity. People who are in the game at the right time and circumstances win big time. Warren Buffett has mentioned this many times.

yes but there's no point in thinking about thing's you can't change(such as being born in a rich family lol)
Work smart,make the best out of opportunities that will come across your way and maybe you can be the guy who gives your children the childhood you've always dreamt of 🙂

Because it's compounding since decades.

That's like saying no matter how hard people work in India , they are never going to beat the Brits.

If you're the first person in the family who earns well then it's your kids who'll reap all the benifits.
— Dr kotreshi (@Drkotreshi) May 4, 2023

True, Most in india dont earn, the ones who do , do so through jobs. Jobs can never build wealth. Its a ponzi scheme. Employability drops with age in a service based economies. Most are also outdated on tech. Some ignorant. Many reasons, one outcome.

Yep, that’s why it’s called GENERATIONAL wealth.
