Summary:Family members feel entitled to family wealth because of various reasons. Some claim that they deserve part of the wealth since they are members of the family. Others assert that they earned rights to the wealth through hard work, while still others argue that they deserve part of the family wealth because they are special.

This becomes problematic when family members manifest their sense of entitlement in a dysfunctional manner. In a family business, this may result in business demise.
