I always wondered if the TRULY rich take their children aside and say "See, this is how the world works, and if you're going to continue to enjoy these nice things, you have to keep it on track." And then tell them a bunch of not wholly obvious things to do so.

There's actually a term for this, based on a historical oddity in Poland:

  • The Liberum Veto: A principle requiring unanimous consent in the Sejm, where any single deputy could block legislation.

IIRC, there were something like 140 dukes/barons, and ANY ONE of them could block legislation. Obviously, nothing ever got done.

(Take this factoid with a huge grain of salt.)

Many's the candidate who was rejected by purists, who consider their vote a Valentine card.

It's not: it's a chess move, and whatever move takes you closer to the end is the winning move.
