[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pull back the shades. They are all from families with alcoholism, prescription drug abuse, infidelity, and some sex abuse. [/quote] Such as the Kennedys ?[/quote] At their peak (from roughly Joe Sr. being named ambassador to Britain to JFK being assassinated) the Kennedys were considered new money. Jackie's family was old money (and broke, accordingly) and looked down their noses at them. Jackie was the only one with enough sense to think, huh, if I want to have a horse and wear designer clothes I need someone new money. She was engaged to an investment banker from her parents' circle before Jack.[/quote] I always find it odd that people not remotely connected to old money seemingly gain some odd sense of superiority when calling out new money in these kinds of posts.
