trust fund kid
Inherited money recipient
A trust fund kid is someone whose wealth comes from family money held in trust, rather than from their own earnings.
The term usually carries connotations of privilege, entitlement, or lack of real-world experience: He's never had to work—total trust fund kid.
It can be dismissive or envious depending on context.
