BEIJING, April 8 -- Young people flaunting their
family's newfound wealth makes us worry that they won't be able to manage the
businesses left over by their rich parents, says an article on the website
www.zjol.com.cn. Following is an excerpt:
It's quite common to see youths with rich parents
driving luxurious cars like Audis and BMWs in Wenzhou and Yiwu, two typical
Zhejiang province cities.
Of course, it's their right to flaunt the money given
them by their rich parents, and others shouldn't intervene. But young show-offs
may ruin their own prospects and destroy the hard-earned prosperity of their
rich parents' businesses.
Most of these families have amassed wealth through
hard work and are the first generation to grow rich in China.
If children have no limit in splurging money, people
may worry whether they can successfully take over and manage the businesses of
their parents.
According to statistics, 43 percent of family
businesses face the problem of how to successfully transfer wealth to the next
generation.
