All examples are low social class. High social class are the original Pilgrims and the WASP that made their money and kept it in Boston

If you dont have wealth extending centuries, you are by definition low social class. There are families in Rome that sided with the Pope during wars hundreds of years back that are still wealthy. Just having wealth for the last one and a half century is not enough. Thats like 4 people only who inherited it

Not true. In an absolute sense, you're right. But I am not talking about insulated elite dynastic classes. Also, capital allocation can cause large dynasties to lose wealth very fast (i.e., Vanderbilts).

My whole "social class pill" stuff is about wealth and capital sufficiency just being one cylinder. These moggers hit the "social class harmony", in the same way someone like Chico would for pure looks. Sure they have a lot of money, but not so much it's uncanny.

If you view it like "good looks increases Chicos harmony of life so much", I'm translating in the same way that these people's social class reduce friction more than 99.99% of others.

^ Simply that.

These people are the eqvivalent of 6'4 men. Rare but not enough to be gawked at. In my country alone there are families that made their money in the last 100-150 years. But they are still not considered upper class. They are looked down upon by the families that have been mercantiles since like 1500. These are the real high social class people. The traits are so ingrained, they might as well be born with it. These families intermarry and are insular to the highest degree. Their wealth wont go away either because seldom invest in businesses outside of their clan. Now the newer ones look old money to a lot of folks who have never touched that level of class, but they dont have it ingrained, a lot of them also dont care much about the subtleties that exist in these clans like intermarriage and so on

The distinction is about social friction, not morality.

Someone from an established upper-class background can make catastrophic mistakes and still retain family networks, institutional credibility, elite education, inherited wealth, and social connections that cushion the consequences. Those forms of capital don't disappear overnight because of personal misconduct.

By contrast, someone without that background often has far less margin for error. The same mistake can have much greater long-term consequences because they lack those buffers. So cocaine use or fraud doesn't determine social class. Social class is about the amount of inherited economic, cultural, and social capital someone possesses.

OP these are the types of people I am talking about. They are rarely in modern media but apart from political class, these are the type of people that have connections across industries. The newer ones got their wealth by buying land in Delhi when East India Company set their capital there. But they didnt care much about wealth allocation in families, or how to expand their MOAT along with their clan. They restrict wealth to their closest ones, say perhaps 10 people. They also frequently intermingle with all types of people from all walks of life

I am sure its different in your country, but you get the idea

Interesting. Seems like they are fully insulated from society...

Even more interesting since they're in Benga, when most of the typical foreward caste families are in the south of India (I think). So yeah they're definitely and example of a super outlier!
