As a 16 year old in the early 1980s, I worked at a gas station pumping gas, cleaning windshields, etc. We used to have an older man come into the gas station in his black 1950s station wagon which half the time had fishing poles sticking out of the back window. Nice, unassuming man in jeans, white tee shirt and suspenders. Always pleasant to talk to. The owner of the gas station tells me that’s Lamont DuPont, former President of DuPont Corporation. He was retired and worth many millions but loved to spend his retirement fishing local rivers and keeping a low profile.

It all starts with behavior, attitude and manners.

Flashy behavior is one of the worst vices

I used to be around a molecular biology department at a big university.
Many of the professors came from "old-money", because they could afford to live on the ridiculously low post doc salaries, and take the financial risk of working in a field where, very often, years of research resulted in no "positive" results.

I share most of the same psychology... just need to work on the money part 💰 🤣

The thing is, some people who are from old money are into flashy And they also don’t mind spending. But typically these type of people are the ones that drain the family coffers dry.

Showing scenes from The Godfather as an example of Old Money is just strange, true they are well dressed, but the Corleones are a crime family who would never cross paths with Old Money on a tennis court or at Ascot.

They also tend to hate each other, old money siblings are absolutely venomous to each other

This is so true...class of its own..respect the staff that work for them

[DinoSapta]

the reason is simply because the old money are born with money so the concept of luxury is just a part of their life since born, in other words.. they are accustomed by it..
also living with lot of money can gave you access to certain circle of people, certain education group, and certain society which leads you to grow cautions since the competition are more harder among others.

in the other hand, the "new money" tends to show what they have as an appreciation for themself to their success.
they also usually have the feel of living on the top among their groups because of their succession..

💯true. I was raised poor. My mother was a popular teacher. She never really knew her father (her mother moved them away from him) but she prized education and traditional clothing over trend clothing. She always made sure we were presentable and was herself well read . She socialized with all people. After she passed I was curious about my grandfather and did genealogy. My grandfather was in the Army but he came from a very old family. The family was wealthy for the better half of a thousand years! My families last name has been around since 1019! Through my mother I am related to 27 of the of 46 presidents. Directly to four and two are living presidents. Additionally, I am related to four of the seven founding fathers.Having a family that I can trace through out a millennium has given me a different perspective than most people. Knowing exactly who your ancestors were, where they were, and what they did is really another level. It blew my mind a bit. I’m not like most people who don’t know what their ancestors did. My ancestors appear to have been at every major event in the last thousand years. I researched them and found them even before they had a last name😂 I am preservation librarian and not rich but wealth goes up and down. My mother really makes me believe for some class is internal.

Using scenes from the Godfather to illustrate these points misses the mark a bit. Michael Corleone was not old money, just second generation wealth. His brothers certainly exhibited none of the traits of old money, and neither did Michael (apart from being able to keep his cool).

- having a large sum of money means that you can invest it and have a passive income, freeing you from having to spend your time working in order to survive it also allows you the freedom to help alleviate the struggles of others, and gives you a chance to act to make life better for all of us, amd spend your time on activities you consider to be positive and useful - in other words, done right it gives you more opportunity to be a decent, ordinary, helpful human being - it is big responsibility, and means you have to make continual efforts to be sure you on the right path, and are not influenced by the abundance of funds you are the steward for :)

Wow. This is mind blowing. I found a video that matches my mindset to a tee. I couldn't possibly relate any better. Good work, OMA.

Yes, the description of old money families is true. I can confirm as I also come from this kind of family, but we lost our fortune because of the crisis in 1929 and 2WW. As the result of that last 3 generation have to struggle with new life conditions that make the expected level of existence challenging...but still possible to maintain within some boundaries.

Never realized that the Corleone's represented old money. I just thought of them as mafia gangsters, LOL.

[MissPomegranately_mahi]

People who are denying this don't realise how true this actually is.

You forget some very important pieces:
- They usually are very religious and belong to religious organisations such as the Order of Malta.
- They focus on quality in clothing (cashmere, top quality wools, silk, good quality cotton, etc.)
- They focus on quality in food too, they know perfectly well what top cooking should be about: specific flavor profiles, techniques, etc.
- They are very discrete, they won't easily share things with you unless you have earned their trust, and as a friend your discretion is also very much required and appreciated
- Etiquette is of course a no brainer
- You better know how to hold a conversation about culture, politics, architecture, the world, etc. when dealing with old money
- in Europe they play field hockey, tennis, do ballet, ride horses, play an instrument or two, etc.

Behaves ‘differently’. Old money tend to have good grammar 😊
