Taking advantage of money is exactly what you want to do. Money will make you more money. So not having money working for you only works to keep you down. The more money you have working for you, the more it makes in a given part of time. Want to create generational wealth, you'll need to make as much $$ as you possibly can and teach your kids how to keep growing their chunk after you pass.
As someone that grew up in a lower middle class home where extra cash just didn't exist. My dedication in life is to make my children set in life. I was lucky enough to find a career path to allow for such entitlement. No it is not a sad life, its only sad if said money is purely for self indulgement.
Notice I wrote ONLY. Of course it's a huge motivation, but would I move to a country or city I hate for x dollars? Would I work in a company that's making chemical weapons that work only on kids? Would I work for Facebook?
No I wouldn't and there are dozens of (less comical) examples where I draw the line.
