There was a man named Nelson Aldrich who was a buddy of john d rockafeller and when he died in 1915 it was disclosed his wealth upon death was around 90 million dollars. John, it is said, commented that “Nelson had us all fooled into thinking he was a truly rich man.”
So the wealthy didn’t consider 90 million as rich back in 1 9 1 5.
