Ultra-Rich Trend: Rich People Consider Having Dozens of Children a 'Project'; This dynasty has become a new symbol of power and influence, not to save

The birth rate in developed countries is at record lows. Many people say they can't afford a child. Whereas there is a small section of the super-rich, who are producing more and more children with the help of technology and almost unlimited resources. Media reports have claimed that more than 100 children, somewhere 200 children want and somewhere 300 children have been born through sperm donation. This trend is being called 'kidmaxing'. That is, the number of children should become a symbol of power, heritage, influence and capture of the future. This story also shows the most concrete form of inequality. On the one hand, people take loans for IVF. Billionaires, on the other hand, are spending two crore rupees or more to have children through surrogacy and donor eggs. Among the most talked about names is Elon Musk. They have 14 children. Telegram founder Pavel Durov claims that more than 100 children have been born through his sperm donation. American insurance tycoon Greg Lindbergh ran the 'Baby Project'. It also led to allegations of cheating models and trapping them for egg donations. The story of his 12 children has come to light. Arlie Russell of the University of California, Berkeley, says, "Billionaires can have children in batches through multiple surrogates at once. IVF technique is no longer just a means of procreation. It has become a tool for selecting gender selection, disease, and certain genetic traits. Only billionaires can afford it." Psychologists say that just as the kings of the old days saw their lineage as a source of power, some of today's tech-kings consider their blood to be the capital of the future. The only difference is that now there is technology in place of swords. According to American author Anna Louie Sussman, some women and children are the victims of this tune of billionaires. Questions have been raised on the exploitation of surrogate mothers, breach of consent, care of children. In many cases, the children grew up in other countries, relying on nurses, while for the father they remained mere figures. Sociologist Eva Illusz warns, "If there is no rigorous and moral debate on it, the very foundation of the family will be shaken."
