Inheritance of large wealth like a $1M+ home is the first step to inequality of opportunity in a society. Get as rich as you want, but for the next generation there needs to be a reset (beyond a reasonable threshold), otherwise you just end up with family dynasties. May be fantastic for the involved individuals, but ends horribly for society. Usually with a revolution after a few generations.
