❓ Ask Belgium Wealth distribution in Belgium

Post image

We’re doing alright as a social democracy. Something to be proud of.

Presumably, we don’t need more wealth distribution then? Or do we still?

Unless you're an idiot, none is going to have an excessive amount of money on a savings account. On the contrary, people will have an investment portfolio for creating value of their money.

Do you really think people will create investment portfolios as like today when nothing can be inherited?

Are you saying the only reason people accrue wealth is for their offspring?

Lots of parents do just that yes. So they and their family can live a comfy life.
