This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Wealth has a way of multiplying, though. Assuming the family is above a certain threshold of wealth, second sons still receive an education and typically get lucrative jobs, expensive gifts etc. that should set them up well.
It's not an absolute. Trust-fund kiddies frequently have no idea how to keep that money growing. Bad investments, frivolous spending, out of control vices and addictions, lawsuits, bribing the law, continuing to cling to an extravagant lifestyle on inadequate funds, divorces, etc. It's obviously not an absolute, but generally I think the more generations pass the more likely any one of them is gonna end up broke.
