“Even if at the time there was an established mercantile class in New York and the city revolved to a large extent around business, it was also understood that it was in poor taste to talk about money. Fur-thermore, involvement in any form of industry was frowned upon. A true gentleman was supposed to be a man of leisure. But the financial enterprises that made such leisure possible were not to be discussed in society. This put my great-grandfather in an awkward place. While his services were greatly appreciated he was also shunned by those who benefited from them. It would take three generations to begin to correct this hypocritical tendency, not yet fully overcome.”

“It is sad that our reality sounds like a conspiracy theory. Who would have ever thought that our very own people we elected, our very own government and media . They colluded with greedy people and are the ones behind our sufferings, unemployment, crime, troubles, killings, murder, poverty, infection, pandemic, sickness, failure and death . They made us think we are crazy and are making things up. Meanwhile they are the ones who are corrupt to the core. They are villains not victims. They create problems for us so they can try to come up with solutions that can make them profit.”
