Forget the myth of meritorcracy.
It's no longer about what you earn, or what you learn.
We are living in an inheritocracy, where the bank of mum and dad matters more than ever. Parental support is the secret taboo of the modern world. Whether we have it or we don't, this shapes life for all of us. Blending award-winning research, revealing interviews and candid stories, Eliza Filby digs deep into the bank of mum and dad to reveal how it affects our dating, our careers, our children, and everything else. Fresh, captivating and honest, she reveals the surprising ways the inheritocracy controls us all.
