- Investing in their kid’s education in a broad sense (attitude, career).
- Marrying well i.e. marrying smart and successful people so that your progeny’s genes are the best they can be.
The British aristocracy was famous for doing this. Marrying old blood to new blood. However, many cultures do the same. That is why marriage was so often a negotiated affair.
