trust fund kids

Born into money

Trust fund kids are young people whose wealth comes from money set aside for them by family, typically parents or grandparents.

The term carries connotations of privilege, entitlement, and not having to work for a living: Those trust fund kids have never had a real job in their lives.

Often used dismissively to suggest someone is out of touch with ordinary financial struggles.
