LONDON — More than 200 years ago a German banker, Mayer Amschel Rothschild, sent his five sons to different European cities to guarantee the survival of what became one of the most prominent banking dynasties.
This month, his great-great-great-grandson David de Rothschild, a baron, took an equally unusual step to ensure the future of the family-owned firm: For the first time, he passed some responsibilities of running Rothschild to someone outside the family.

This just another maneuver to free up their responsibilities so they won't have to leave on of their own behind when it's time to lock themselves into the underground shelters. Nigel Higgins will be stuck on the surface with the rest of the regular folks while the elites will be waiting out the destruction of civilization as we know it.
Mr. Higgins is under no illusion: “At the end of the day the family controls the firm and sets the culture,” he said.
“You could imagine a younger Rothschild becoming chief executive in 10 years or so,” the baron said. “It’s all a matter of what is supported by staff and the family.”

And thus begins the downfall of the Rothschild empire.
Mayer Amschel Rothschild would be rolling in his grave if he found out this hippy great great great grandson of his threw it all away like this.
Sure is quite a shame.
Hell at least there is some good news around here for once!
