Herb> Consider if you will, a millionaire's son destined to become a Harvard man. The parents, who didn't get to where they were by playing marbles in the sand, pull every trick in the book to insure the success of their progeny. Their objective: CEO of IBM. Or at least a good job. ??

Isn't that what every parent no matter what their means should or does try to do for their offspring.

A lot of much wealthier families have the same desires but with much less success.

It was as much about timing as anything.

More interesting is Paul Allen and what little he really did to justify being one of the richest men in the world.

His bio should be called Accidental Billions.
