Even Harvard graduates' plans are affected by family money (beyond being able to attend Harvard)

My kids didn’t have to go to Harvard to be exceptional. #1 never needed $1 after graduating in economics from Chicago. Got a job in business right away and (while making several job changes) has earned real money since then.

2 needed our $$ for several years after graduating with a BFA from RISD. After a career shift and adding an MBA to her CV she's been financially independent. We consider it fortunate for her and for us that we could afford to help her.
