Like father like son is a myth that have been for decades. By experiencing may be a friend and his father or by carefully examining yourself, you will see that some traits of his father are traceable to him and that of your dad traceable to you also.... Financial life can't be any different. A financial extravagant father will likely have his children do the same even when they do not like him that way. if not deliberate actions not to do the same you will see you doing similar things.... So is it really a myth or a reality?
Not a myth but reality , Like my father (who is a drinker) i used to be one as well , He as womanizer I used to be one as well , but it changes eventually as we go mature when we realized our priorities in life and that gives us how world is rightful in all matter.
Now I am lucky because I bring my children grow when time that I am changed m when the time that I have not been a bad at all , they did not see me drinking nor smoking , and so now as they grow mature they are not also dealing in vices.
