Assuming intelligence is the best predictor of wealth (not sure if true), and that intelligence is highly genetic as said elsewhere in this thread (not sure if true), then parent's wealth being a good predictor of children's wealth would already be explained by intelligence being genetic.
So just because parent's wealth predicts children's wealth doesn't in any way make it impossible that intelligence predicts wealth too or that they'd necessarily be in conflict.
