30 Ways Rich People Think Differently Than the Rest of Us

12. They pass it on

Rich people teach their children how to be rich. From the outset, as soon as they can understand, the children of rich parents know something about them is different. They soon become aware of the difference between themselves and “other” people.

It’s easy to distinguish between the “haves” and the “have-nots.” That’s not to say that rich people teach their children to be snobby brats with elitist views. They show them about the reality of the world around them.

The children of rich parents are trained from a young age to want to be as rich as their parents. They might get a bit of help when they start out, but many will strike out on their own, determined to make their mark.

The have-nots tend to teach their children to survive. That means they teach them to budget and save. They make their children risk-averse because of the fear of what would happen if their venture fails.
