My kids aren't greedy. Not in the slightest, but I notice everyone else is. I don't think greed is inheritable, it must be taught somehow.

Your kids are greedy.
My kids are approaching 40. I'd know by now.

It occurs to me that I've misspoken, at least a wee bit.

I'm not saying that there is anything special about your kids; or any of us.

There is, as far as I know, anything whatsoever about your kids that is "bad," or whatever. In fact, I assume that they are awesomely good people, because I know that they are your kids. I have no reason, at all, to think that you would raise anything other than good people.

What I *am* saying is that your kids are greedy AF, just like I am, and you are.

Your definition of greedy is too expansive. I want money & power for my projects. No projects, no need for money. Certainly no interfamily battles about fucking money. BELIEVE ME it's better to enjoy what you're doing than to do something you like less for the money.

It's best to leave the inheritance gamesmanship to your siblings. Dignity first.

You know what they say..

For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

What is the correct definition of "greed" then?

I don’t know how much is enough but it’s closer to $10 million than it is $100 million.
