    Relevant detail: the amount of wealth that you’ve inherited allows you to take riskier and thus more profitable decisions to accumulate further wealth later on. So it is not an “either this or that” matter - it’s both.

      Yeah if I had a several million dollar inheritance it is trivial to spin up a new business and make more money.

      Otherwise it’s business loans and stressing to get those paid off while keeping a profitable business.
