The issue of hostile envy of wealth was raised. David Bork counselled participants to ‘set boundaries’ for curious and hostile people they might encounter, and to turn away criticism calmly and comfortably. He urged a positive attitude. ‘If you go about with a sense of fear you will have less of a life. You have got to learn to be comfortable with, and embrace the reality of, inherited wealth’. Nonetheless, several participants replied that an upfront approach about wealth would in today’s society inevitably lead to allegations that money had opened doors for them, thereby undermining their achievements.
