This brings to mind a different partner who told me the lift tickets alone were $12,000 for the ski trip he took his adult kids on. I must have had a shocked look on my face, because then he quickly said, "Well, you have to take them to those places so they'll spend time with you."
I remember thinking, how sad. Here this guy has more money than most of us will ever see in a lifetime, and he has to bribe his kids with ski trips to get them to spend time with him. My kids are young adults too; and they certainly don't expect ski trips from me. They spend time with me anyway.
