Now I know it’s none of my business at all but I’m curious as to if anyone can shed some light.
I work for a private bank, the owners/shareholders are rumoured to be worth 100 million plus. It’s 2 brothers who between them have 4 kids (this is already the 5th generation I think).
The 4 kids are all being primed to take on roles within the company and eventually take over. Why? Surely with 100 million plus you just walk away?
The are earlier 20s, 2 work at massive banks
I would guess for experience? One is at uni and one is at uni but models and seems fo
make a fair bit on her own.
This is all triggered by having been for dinner with one of them tonight and he was talking about how his daughter had gone to the Super Bowl, a little research suggests that would be bloody expensive?!

They also seems to always have boxes at the F1 etc.

AIBU to wonder why at this point they still prime their kids to take over the business rather than moving on?
