About This Quote
In this quote, Will Smith speaks about the difference between scientific power and inherited wealth. He says that scientific power is a form of inherited wealth, while the only people who are assholes congenitally rich are those born to wealth. Scientific power and inherited wealth both have their place in society, but scientific power is better than inherited wealth because it is earned and based on merit. Inherited wealth comes from having parents who were wealthy before time began. The only reason why they were wealthy was because their parents had been wealthy before them.
