and Mr. Eazi marrying Temi Otedola daughter of billionaire Femi Otedola.
While most people were clapping for the outfits, the location, the celebrity guest lists…
they missed the point entirely.
The point is generational wealth.
The reason these kids are where they are today is because of the legacy their parents have built.
These parents didn’t just leave them money
they built a name, a network, and opportunities that their children could step into without starting from zero.
While the world admires the glamour, they overlook the fact that decades of work, sacrifice, and strategic decisions created the platform these children now stand on.
That foundation is the invisible hand lifting them to heights others struggle to reach.
Generational wealth isn’t just “my father has money.”
It’s the solid ground your parents lay so you can start life on level 50 while others are still trying to climb from level 5.
A rich kid’s foundation often includes:
- The best schools and world-class education.
- A network of powerful connections that open doors effortlessly.
- A family name that commands trust, respect, and credibility.
- Access to capital without begging, pleading, or proving themselves.
- Established businesses ready for them to step into and expand.
That’s why while the poor kid is still trying to get life’s basics sorted, the rich kid is already polishing their gift and multiplying opportunities.
You can trace it in tech, music, business do a background check and you’ll find that many of today’s stars and CEOs didn’t start from zero.
They started from a foundation their parents laid decades earlier.
Now, maybe your father isn’t a billionaire
but make you lay a foundation
Build something that outlives you.
Leave your children a footprint to stand on so that 50 years from now, they can start where you stopped
not where you started.
Generational wealth is the only wealth that truly survives time.
Money can be spent, fame can fade, and possessions can be lost but a solid foundation endures.
It lives through your children, your grandchildren, and everyone who benefits from what you built.
That is wealth that outlives you… wealth that
speaks for you long after you are gone…
