What is the Trustafarian rising-gen archetype?

Kris Kluver, in The Dysfunctional Family Office, names this archetype the Trustafarian. Disengaged. Lives off family proceeds without contributing. Leans into recreation more than responsibility. Exhibits an entitled posture that masks deeper questions about purpose and belonging. The archetype is the family nightmare for most UHNW founders, and fear of raising one drives much of their parenting behavior. The pattern usually forms when the Enabler founder combines unlimited resources with no explicit purpose for the wealth. The kid never develops capability. The wealth becomes a substitute for direction. The fix isn't to take the wealth away. It's to address the underlying purpose vacuum. Most Trustafarians are searching for purpose and belonging they couldn't find through inherited resources. Real engagement requires real responsibility, real consequences, and real meaning. The work is hard and possible.
