[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The entire United States is new money. It’s by definition. This country was buffaloes and Indians before the White man came. It’s all new money and anybody that appears wealthy is just 1 or 2 generations from wrangling cattle and planting corn[/quote]

It’s all relative.  I think if it’s more than 1-2 generations, it’s “old money.” To me, the Rockefellers are old money. Same with the Carnegies, Astors, and Gettys.  I would never call this new money.  [/quote]

My family’s money came from a deal with John Rockefeller, so we’re now into the 4th generation. [/quote]
so, you're admitting your family's wealth came from breaking labor's back under a ruthless monopolist. got it. i wouldnt say that out loud, buddy.[/quote]

Actually quite the opposite, buddy. Should I give it all back? My relative was the definition of a self-made man and the embodiment of the American Dream.

I’m proud of my family’s legacy. My late parent skillfully reinvested and managed the monies and grew it substantially; providing college educations for grandchildren. [/quote]

But what have YOU done?….waiting…crickets… :lol: [/quote]

Don’t know if this is sarcasm but I directly support causes near and dear to my heart with my time, talents and money. Career in a low-pay, helping profession. I knit blankets for NICU babies and cancer patients. Any other questions?[/quote]
