Like a Second Mother: Nannies and Housekeepers in the Lives of Wealthy Children

These are true stories of men and women who have been challenged by (and who, often enough, have chosen to challenge) the wealth that has become theirs by virtue of inheritance. They have been born to the bright promise of money, but have also learned that such a lot is not without plenty of potential hazards, if not outright dangers. It is, I fear, all too easy for many of us who have never faced this particular kind of situation to be somewhat skeptical of the very real threats it can pose.

- Robert Coles, author of Children of Crisis series from the foreword to The Legacy of Inherited Wealth
