Welcome to the YAWNs

Also in the Wall Street Journal, that bastion of fascinating reading, comes this inspiring bit on the new YAWNs--"Young And Wealthy Normals," self-made rich people under 50 who want to live fulfilling and healthy lives that are not given over to excess or vulgar display. A big connection seems to be parents who want to make sure their kids do not grow up to be Paris Hilton or Brandon Davis. Bonus: they are more interested in philanthropy than in partying.
