[quote=Anonymous]I know lots of extremely wealthy Southerners but none whose wealth dates back to the Civil War. Everyone was dirt poor during the Depression. Most wealth I know started accumulating just two generations ago (George Bush Sr's generation). Timber and oil- and they had nothing to do with slaves or Prestige and "class" in the South has more to do with your family's social status than wealth. And I regularly hear southerners refer to "old money" that is just 2-3 generations old. [/quote]
