[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH and I consider ourselves rich yes, though we would never phrase it that way. Our great-great-grandchildren will never have to work. We know we are outrageously lucky.[/quote] At least someone here admits to being wealthy.[/quote] Perhaps it could also be said luck has nothing to do with it, but it is in fact an active subversion of capitalism and the American way altogether. The productive value of vast inherited wealth is highly questionable and indeed questioned by some of America's most substantial self-made billionaires. A landed gentry or de facto nobility was certainly very much counter to the vision of this country's founders. All the lionizing about old money on DCUM seems patently absurd.
