I worked in middle management for a relatively unknown billionaire. I'm not sure just how rich he is but when I left that company in 2021 he had at least five private jets. I met him a couple of times. He was born into the wealth, third generation. He was a little on the clueless side. Definitely grew up sheltered (though at this point he was on up there in age). I didn't get the impression that he was a bad person, but at the same time he's not someone I would have entrusted any important decisions to, either.
His company is getting taken over slowly by grifters and cons. I don't know if it will make it to the fourth generation.
