@MarmeeMarch It's not White privilege. But some of those aren't self made and started with money to begin with.

@BlueMetalChick you go back far enough on the last ones that I added and they started out with nothing.

@MarmeeMarch The Morgan family was already wealthy and influential long before the birth of John Pierpont. If you go back to before his birth, well, yeah. Eventually you're gonna hit a point at which they weren't rich. But that would be the case for every wealthy family ever.

@BlueMetalChick My point is for all - that the money that they started out with did not go in reverse.
