Yeah, the Rothschild family may be the exception...

On a sidenote, how many of you truly believe that Buffett and the other investment "kings" don't hold back as to the "true secrets" to their success? Are they so rich, and so giving that they want everyone to know how they got it right, or do they hold back the good stuff?
