Poor Solomon. He's on his soapbox about how it's all useless. You work your butt off, and then your stuff all goes to the man who comes after you (Eccl 1-2). And who knows what that fellow is going to do with it -- how he's going to screw up all you worked for?
So, did he already know Reheboam would be his successor?
Did he already know that his son was the type of guy who couldn't hold the kingdom together?
Was he expressing not only "You can't take it with you" but also "You can't keep being an influence for good after you're gone"?
