Despite social myths to the contrary, the best predictor of future wealth is the family into which you are born. Each year, the business magazine Forbes publishes a list of the “Forbes 400”一the four hundred wealthiest families and individuals in the country. Of all the wealth represented on the Forbes 400 list, more than half is inherited. Those on the list who could be called “self-made” were not typically of modest origins; most inherited significant assets (Forbes, 1997; Sklar and Collins,. Those in the upper class with newly acquired wealth are known as the nouveau riche. Although they may have vast amounts of money, they are often not accepted into “old rich” circles.
尽管有一些逆袭的社会神话，但你所出生的家庭很好地预示着未来你将拥有的财富。每年，福布斯商业杂志会公布“福布斯美国400富豪榜”——美国最富有的400个家庭或个人。在位于福布斯400富豪榜上的所有富豪中，超过一半的人的财富都是继承得来的。富豪榜上的那些被称为“白手起家”的人通常都不是寒门出生；大部分都继承了巨额的资产（福布斯，1997；斯克拉和柯林斯，1997）。上级社会中，那些新贵通常被称为暴发户。虽然他们可能拥有巨额的财产，但是他们常常不被原来的富人圈子所接纳。
