Here's food for thought that my Sicilian co-worker and I were discussing today. Generational wealth, America has completely lost the plot when it comes to this concept.

A families success actually is determined accross generational lines. And in a lot of cultures with ancient roots, its a normal practice to make a life's work out of cultivating generational wealth, and treating the local and extended family unit more as, for lack of a better word, a tribe or a corporation of sorts that sticks together and pools their wealth for survival. Plus they think ahead toward the grand children and great-grand children and beyond. American culture is truly devoid of this mentallly.

My greek friend could probably weigh in on this because greeks have always been a culture of stong family ties cc @dcc
