[quote=Anonymous]There's a lot of social mobility in this country, at least moving from top to bottom. On my Dad's side, several GG Grandparents were fancy New York E1s -- mansions on 5th ave, country estates, membership in elite clubs and Mrs. Astor's 400, etc -- but I'm now a G2 at best. Same for my wife. Some of my cousins and connections are still E1s, but some have slipped to hybrid G4/L1 status. My Dad still considers himself to be an E, but his financial and living situation is more like an L (which happens when you quit work in your 40s to spend down inherited capital...). [/quote]
