Any old money we can claim in these parts?
Not up on too much history or old money. Just curious. Talking with a native Frenchman right now.

Old money is just new money that has had a couple of generations to forget its roots and become pretentious. Cornelius Vanderbilt ran a ferry boat.

I’ve heard many of the mansions in uptown New Orleans are operated by a family trust and passed down in the family. Would say that’s an example of old money.

Uptown and Old Metairie

Do you really not know this or are you just trying to start an inflammatory thread?

Is lammo the same loser that used to come on here and brag about how much money he made as a personal injury attorney?

"I received a $14768 commission from a settlement today"

Those threads or am I confusing him with someone else?
