Interesting and well written article.

I think the issue that causes a lot of this emotion around money is the fact that we as a society like to think that the harder you work, the more money you make.

It's obviously not a true statement at all.

When you come into a lot of money for relatively little effort (the comparison of the kid vs. the mother), you start to feel like you don't deserve it at all.

"Why do I get $1M for a few months work when my mom gets $20K/yr for busting her ass?"
