I'm not asking for money. I'm asking why it's OK to inherit money from your parents and do nothing useful your whole life. Why do we give those people a free pass?

People who receive money dont necessarily expect and demand to sit on their ass. It just happens to them and they got lucky.

And theres not a "pass" you or anyone else is entitled to give. Its not your property or family matter.
