Great post! I'm in touch with a fellow in Miami who is an historian of Florida, and especially south Florida. We exchange emails frequently. I'm still fascinated by the city's history and how it has changed....and it has. I was aware of Fulbright's family connection to Foote. Not aware of the...

Tell them OriginalGatorHater says the kids should expect a net worth of $30M.

Not according to OriginalGatorHater, i guess. He dispenses all the wisdom on weath. Those who don't meet his high standards are losers, apparently. I'd like to see who he is in real life. I was going to say he's that guy living in his mother's basement but you don't have basements in South...

You just don't get my humor. And I don't care whether you do or not....I usually do it to amuse myself. So sorry it seems to bother you....

I looked them up after my post. I had never heard of them. Now I know who they are. I don't live in South Florida so not part of the community and haven't been down there in decades. Used to go to games in the '80's and '90's but no more. Further, I'm not an alum. I'm one of those who grew up...

How would you know what to expect from me? I suspect a lot of the wealth in South Florida was made in illegal drugs.

I know very little about Duke now. I went to college many years ago. I know they gave a business school and I think an engineering school so both might present more opportunities to enter fields where you can make great wealth. You usually don't make that kind of wealth as a lawyer or...

I love the people who come on here and talk casually about the average non-wealthy UM graduate could easily be worth millions early in their careers. Then they go on and talk about a NW of $30M being nothing. If I had that kind of net worth you could be sure I'd find something more exciting then...

I doubt that but I'd be interested in hearing why you believe that. I know it's true admissions interest increased in the mid to late '80's and I think admissions people attributed that to our increased visibility because of the football team's success.

Who?

Yeah. Sure.

Misleading (I think) for several reasons. I know something about Georgetown, which is a relatively small university with no engineering school (hence few will go into high tech) nor a big-time business school (so relatively few will go into investment banking, venture funds, etc.). I suspect...
