富二代

(neologism) one who belongs to the second generation of a wealthy family

Usage notes

Originally this term carried the implication that a child of this generation enjoys the wealth of his or her parents whilst being ignorant of how hard they had to work in order gain it, though this negative connotation seems to be on the decline.
