What screams old money?

Multiple generations--including the women--who attended elite educational institutions. Not just the Ivies, but also the SLACs that are unfamiliar to all but the well educated.

Naturally, this level of education will mean some money, but not necessarily. Old money means that some members of the family will be academics and artists, who have just enough money, but not as much as other members of the family.

Yeah, because there are all types in the family. They are not all investment bankers. They might become carpenters, artists, writers! This is the way it always was, until it wasn't.

Not necessarily. In southren states, old money often attends flagship state schools or religiously affiliated private schools.

You are right; however, people in southern states are really weird about money -- pretending to have it, or being old money, or acting like they are rich when they are 100K etc. Southern girls got a lot they have to take in, and they have my sympathy.

People in the south with oldish money are weird about it because they owned slaves.

In the south and I'm talking Virginia all the way to Florida monied families prior to the Civil War lost all of their monies after the war.

Southern families really did not recover until WWII and in some cases up until the 1960's.

Many old family southern families have no money but have the facade of old money.

There was a lot of emphasis on the southern girls to marry well as their families literally had no money.

This differs dramatically from the old monied families of the northeast and rustbelt that still have money.

The old man smells of old cigars talks a little loud and raspy he is talking about himself but not in an arrogant way but because he tells stories.

Eww

Yep. Old money is not fancy. Their library is full of originals so it smells like a used book store.

That’s no old enough money.

There were no colleges in the South when the North started going to college.

The second oldest university in America after Harvard is William and Mary, which is in Virginia.

Perhaps technically they were correct since Harvard in the North predates William and Mary in the South.
