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.

A hate that is so strong, that the very words you uttered at that moment can still be felt by the next generations that come after you?

generation mifwiw

Generation milking it for what it’s worth:

Not so much a generation, as a breed displaying almost exponential growth since the Baby Boomers – well represented in 2017 within the white Anglosaxon 20 to 30 year old demographic.

The following are some characteristics typical of the MIFWIW:

• accepting praise and acknowledgment for others work and efforts;

• hoarder of (read: “witholds”) critical information for their own benefit;
• AWOL specialist when delivery, support and responsibility are required;

• completes and prioritises personal tasks and activities on others’ time;

• owns the badge of entitlement;

• devoid of conscience and remorse;

• plagiarist;

• smarmy – compensates for lack of integrity with double doses of charm
• cheater;

• high level expertise in scam techniques and so on…
A MIFWIW specimen can be identified by several things;
• Cannot shake hands with you as their hands are too busy delving into everyone elses pockets
• Cannot look you in the eye or hear your objections, as own head is tightly positioned up own arse
• On the rare occasion head is extracted, extra strong (usually brand name) sunglasses are worn to protect eyes from the apparent brilliant sunshine they ‘know’ emanates from own arsehole
• Can be observed in a secret moment, rotating on their own axis in the true centre of their own universe
He cheated his way through high school and his degree… and is proud of it, clearly he’s earned his generation MIFWIW high distinction….or… Mr MIFWIW won’t be here on Tuesday because that’s our delivery deadline but he’ll be here to collect the congratulations later in the week.

generative materialism

Paradigm that elements of feeling (figmas) have a bijective relationship with elements of thought (psychometers) in a closed-system.

The idea that the immune system subjects discrete lines-of-thought to a bending force between supersymmetry and perception-resolution.
In generative materialism your thoughts share a 1-to-1 relationship with elements of your immune system--figmas--such that your immune system bends your elements of thought before they reach perception-resolution (object-grammetry).

Thus; you are meeting elements of your immune system in a drug-induced hallucination.

second-generation noise

Refers to a giggly "imitation" racket dat a small child gleefully makes after hearing a grownup undertake a jarringly-loud activity, such as hammering, drilling, sawing, filing, etc.
Classic examples of "second-generation noise" would be if a youngster watches his parent or a visiting neighbor driving nails and then starts happily yodeling, "Bam-bam-bam-bam!" while pounding his fist on anything within reach around the house, or hollers, "ZzhEEEh-ukhkhahw, zzhEEEh-ukhkhahw, zzhEEEh-ukhkhahw, zzhEEEh-ukhkhahw..." (accompanied by vigorous back-and-forth motions with his forearm against various objects) after he witnesses someone raspingly slicing up boards or plywood with a crosscut saw.
