Agreed. It's pretty much impossible to determine the wealth of the Rothschilds. The most valid source posted would probably be Forbes. By their
own admission their
methodology is
conservative.
Also, please note the
Washington Time article I posted to on page 1:
Voting rights to the shares passed to Mr. Rothschild, 67, under a "previously unknown arrangement" designed to take effect in the event that Mr.
Khodorkovsky could no longer "act as a beneficiary" of the shares, it said.
How many of these "previously unknown arrangement" are there? I'm sure Forbes doesn't consider or is even aware of these arrangement when
compiling their list.
Remember, it is not to the elite class's advantage to fully report their assets.
Big banks are not exactly oppose to
laundereing large sums of money. (another rense link you seem
to enjoy so much

)
The Rothschilds own one of Europe's most prestigious bank. (another ATSer actually called the bank and confirmed that 1 million USD is required to
open an account) I think it's safe to say that if they wanted to hide assets, they'd be fully capable of it.
Does anyone know if the Rothschild own shares in the Bank of England/Federal reserve? I heard the rumors, just never had any confirmation. Are there
anyway to even know that? (even for Forbes)
