Unfortunately the point remains what elludes anyone with money is the breeding. Which comes back to the original point as to why Tatler etc have a readership...because this new money is aspiring to old world sensibilities..and thats why lists like above get drawn up. If you're not in it you wouldnt know. And there is for better or worse a club there.
These are familes Formby.. and blood is thicker than water...it's that premise that gives it the elite nature it has. You marry into it, you cant buy into it.
You're basically looking at the Kate Middleton of Talk Ivy.
You selfmade northerners and baby boomer Yanks may have attained some level of upper middle class comfort but you will always be buttsore by the fact you're not from the right stock, no need to take it out on those that are.

I'm going to poach a few pheasants this weekend from the Queen's forest. What used to be the Queen's forest anyway. If there's anyone out there claiming a title, damn sure I'll shoot them too. Pretty sure that right is in the Constitution.
I really need to go pheasant shooting soon.
