Spoiled children top worries of the wealthy

What keeps the richest among us awake at night? According to a new survey, more than just whether to buy that second Bentley.

About half of wealthy business owners fret that their success has spoiled their children, and only 26 percent expect the next generation to join the family business, according to a survey by SunTrust Bank Private Wealth Management.

Hand-wringing among the well-to-do also includes the fate of their fortunes. Protecting and building wealth were cited as top concerns, as was transitioning wealth to the next generation.

Even if their worries are well-founded, 57 percent of business owners are confident that their skills are easily transferable and they would land on their feet.

The nonscientific online survey included more than 200 owners of businesses with at least $10 million in annual revenue.
