I believe that was true in the past, but how many CEOs or even top level execs who make the kind of income that would make the rest of us vomit with envy (being colorful there) now did it without coming from a wealthy family? And how many 50 year olds who worked hard and were smart never have made it to the top nor will they? They are called the top 1% for a reason and what I am seeing socially now is financial inbreeding of that top 1%.
CitiBank itself said we are living in a plutocracy, we can accept it, deny it or change it.
