“I regard large inherited wealth as a misfortune, which merely serves to dull men's faculties. A man who possesses great wealth should, therefore, allow only a small portion to descend to his relatives.

To do so merely encourages laziness and impedes the healthy development of the individual's capacity to make an independent position for himself.” IfsMenShouldChildrenHandsIndividualWealthMistakePositionDevelopmentHealthyCapacityRegardIndependentDullFacultyMisfortunesPortionsLazinessInherited Wealth Author:Alfred Nobel
