Actually, I think that’s the key… I believe that it tends to be self-correcting and therefore getting involved is only likely to screw things up. Look at how many families have risen to power and prominence and then within a generation or two have completely collapsed due to the idiocy of a few in a single generation.

The *only* thing saving people such as Paris Hilton is the fact that someone was smart enough to put someone else in charge of her money. Sure, she can probably go drop $1M on a party some weekend, but she can’t waste the entire family fortune.
