How Old-Money Dynasties Sustain Power Across Generations

How old-money dynasties like the Rothschilds, Rockefellers, Herreras, and Agnellis preserve and grow their wealth across generations. Learn their investment strategies, financial control, and legacy-building secrets.

For centuries, the world’s most powerful families have controlled vast fortunes, shaping economies, industries, and political landscapes. Unlike new-money billionaires who often accumulate wealth rapidly, old-money dynasties sustain their riches for generations. They employ intricate financial strategies, ensure tight family control over assets, and utilize economic policies as a leverage to maintain their highly influential financial empires.

Old-money dynasties sustain power across generations by combining financial discipline, long-term investment strategies, and strong family governance. Families like the Rothschilds, Rockefellers, Herreras, and Agnellis are prime examples of how elite wealth is preserved and influence is maintained over centuries.

generous with his sausage, but stingy with his bacon

Sarcastic term used by a lady for a guy with a major case of "one-sided willingness" --- da dude is always ready and eager to "open his zipper" (i.e., whip out his "sausage") anytime, but never seems all that motivated to "open his WALLET" (i.e., "share his bacon") to help you out financially, even with just basic stuff like groceries of household/repair materials.
Cool chick: So what's your new boyfriend like?
Hip girl: Oh, just yer typical pig --- generous with his sausage, but stingy with his bacon!

The politically active generation

aka. P.M.G.; The generation within a particular family that is the most politically active
Brian and Jen’s kids are a lot more involved protests about racial equality, gender equality, LGBTQ equality and recognition, and climate change than their parents, grandparents, or their own children are. They also attend more political rallies, watch debates more often, and tend to vote more than their parents, grandparents, or their own children do. They are the politically active generation in the family.
