Rothschild family owns 1800 plus luxury mansions and 100 plus private jets yes this is no Fiction it's real wealth of a real family who are they how did they accumulate so much wealth what do they spend it on we're here to tell you just that so let's jump right into it who are the Rothschilds the Rothschilds didn't become billionaires overnight it's through decades and centuries that they amassed incomparable wealth owing to their strong Investments and knowledge of Finance they're a wealthy influential family of Bankers philanthropists and entrepreneurs originating from Europe their immense wealth and power comes from their Banking and finance business ass as well as their investments in many Industries the Rothschilds have been making their mark on the world for more than 200 years and are considered to be one of the most powerful families in the world from their success in the banking and finance industry to their unrivaled influence over governments the Rothschilds have become a global icon of success and wealth the family's wealth can be traced back to the 18th century when Meyer M shell Rothschild started a financial services business in Frankfurt Germany they have used their wealth to acquire huge stakes in some of the world's most successful companies including Shell Oil and De Beers they have also amassed a substantial amount of real estate across the world including properties in the United States Britain France and Switzerland they also have extensive political connections and are closely linked to many powerful figures in the financial world the Rothschilds have a knack to anticipate and capitalize on changes in the financial markets and to their formidable network of international contacts they have been able to build an impressive network of business relationships that have allowed them to remain at the Forefront of global Finance the history of the Rothschilds the family's road to prominence was paved in 1744 when Meyer M shell Rothschild was born on the 23rd of February in Frankfurt Germany he was the son of amshel Moses Rothschild who was a money changer he was known to trade with the prince of Hessa M shell Moses Rothschild was born in the udengasa the ghetto of Frankfurt after his parents early deaths Meyer am shells started to work as an apprentice in a banking house and soon he became a banker himself he was very intelligent and started building his Empire by sending off each of his five Sons amchel Nathan Jacob Solomon and Carl to the five main European Financial Centers for business Meyer and his eldest son amshel were responsible for overseeing the growing business at frankfract at the same time Nathan established a branch in London in 1804 Jacob settled in Paris in 1811 and Solomon and Carl opened offices in Vienna and Naples in the 1820s wars were crucial turning points for the Rothschilds they lent funds to warring princess which included smuggling as well as legal trading of important produce such as wheat cotton Colonial produce and arms eventually the Rothschilds began to diversify their Investments expanding into a wide range of areas including coal oil real estate and wine this diversification strategy paid off and helps the family's assets grow significantly their networks spread far and wide and helped to facilitate the family's access to a wide range of markets and allowed them to capitalize on New Opportunities Maya Rothschild's five Sons also shared a unique business strategy that focused on investing heavily in the stock of companies during economic downturns they were often ahead of the curve when it came to purchasing stocks or other Investments making sure they got the best returns possible they were also known for their shrewd business Acumen and often made deals that benefited themselves and their clients Maya Rothschild also used a strategy similar to Royal intermarriage that was prevalent in those times to successfully keep the fortune in the family he arranged marriages of his sons often to first or second cousins this wasn't followed up by the subsequent generations for obvious reasons so by the late 19th century almost all Rothschilds had started to marry outside of the family but these marriages weren't outside aristocracy or other Financial dynasties their investments in transportation communication and energy networks changed the way people communicated and traveled they were also involved in some of the world's most important business deals such as the Suez Canal and the Union Pacific Railroad perhaps their most lasting Legacy is the way their success has inspired generations of entrepreneurs and financiers the Rothschilds have demonstrated the importance of sound Investments diversification and risk management they set the standard that many entrepreneurs still strive to meet today the Rothschild family work and assets there are conspiracies that they own 80 percent of the world's wealth but that's all they are conspiracies that are very false but let's see what we do know about where they spend their ever flowing wealth from initially trading Goods in a small company the Rothschilds grew bigger and bigger over the years with business activities involving Merchant banking private banking Asset Management Acquisitions and mergers Insurance Venture Capital pensions and Investments sovereign debt and commodities we already told you in the intro about their 1800 Mansions those are worth a total of an eye-watering 36 billion dollars they also have 50 25 yachts and several private jets if that didn't drop your jaw yet the Rothschild family has a 100 billion dollar fund that they use for investing in global stock markets like the New York Stock Exchange the London Stock Exchange and Tokyo the Rothschilds have a reserve of about 20 billion in U. S dollars six billion dollars in Japanese Yen and 33 billion dollars in euros talk about diversity what do they invest in that makes them richer and richer by the day the most noteworthy stocks owned by the Rothschild family are meta or Facebook Amazon Apple Starbucks Visa Bloomberg Bank of America Qualcomm Johnson and Johnson Pfizer Hewlett Packard Berkshire Hathaway JB Morgan Chase PepsiCo and the list goes on and on and on most of those names have been right on top of their respective Industries for decades and by investing in these Rock Solid companies the Rothschilds surely know how to multiply their money and how or aspirations and when we're talking wealth and luxury how can fine wine be left behind it's not just the finance sector and banking that interests the Rothschilds the family has also been in the winemaking industry for 160 years they directly and indirectly control over 70 percent of Total Wine sold in Europe and have earned over 16 billion dollars in the last year alone in wine sales they own multiple vineyards in Italy France South America South Africa and Australia the Rothschild family also supplies the wine for the Vatican for free that's a good combination of novelty and nobility coming back to their interest in finance the Rothschild family controls over 25 Banks and investment companies around the world the Rothschilds have Equity investments in 8 out of 10 Giants in the financial World their very own bank NM Rothschild and Sons which is an English Investment Bank works on mergers and Acquisitions they also have a Financial holding company Pari Orlean sa the Rothschilds also own a leading private and Investment Bank the Rabobank group in the Netherlands so what happens when one not only has too much wealth but also too much control over a Region's finances as well they have the capability to control Wars and Powerful decisions between nations too the Rothschild family's control of banks is why they were involved in the independence of Brazil from Portugal in the early 19th century the family profited greatly during the Napoleonic Wars by helping the British government with its finances their Financial social economic and political hold is so strong that it wouldn't be far-fetched to say that they own the entirety of Europe I wonder how the royal family I mean royal families around the world feel about this what do the Rothschilds spend on the Rothschilds don't just go on with the boring banking work all the time they also live their lives to the fullest and richest let's take a look at the the snazzy and Jazzy things that they buy super rich people and Yachts almost always go together Planet 9 super yacht is one of the luxury Yachts the Rothschilds own the newer generation of Rothschild Nat Roth's child owns the planet nine super yacht that's priced at an astounding 102 million dollars it was built in 2018 and is 240 feet long with state-of-the-art amenities such as a helipad Beach Club and Spa with plush Interiors designed by the best German interior designers this luxury vessel can accommodate up to 16 guests and a 26-member crew Nat Rothschild isn't always cruising through oceans so what does he do with his yacht at other times leave it lonely at a port nope we know the Rothschilds well enough by now and there's no way they won't look for an opportunity to earn some extra Millions Nat Rothschild rents out the lavish planet nine yacht for a staggering 725 thousand dollars per that goes down to six hundred fifty thousand dollars a week in the winter Chateau Mouton Rothschild is where the rich and luxurious wine is fermented and produced by this eminent family this 222 acre property alone is estimated to be worth between 150 and 200 million dollars and that's minus the wine this is the price of the Bordeaux estate in France alone the wine production will obviously increase the overall price of the property manifold what's the price of a bottle of the Rothschilds Cabernet and Sauvignon wines seven hundred dollars a bottle yeah I'll have water on the Rocks please here comes another stunning estate from the Rothschild portfolio of ownership the Waterston Manor is located in the village of wanistan in buckinghamshire England this breathtaking property was built for Baron Ferdinand dorothschild and his family in 1877 for the price of 1. 8 million dollars over the years its price skyrocketed to a jaw-dropping 250 million dollars the mega mansion has awe-inspiring architecture and houses a number of expensive portraits and other antique Treasures the resplendent property also has a museum that sees 460 000 visitors each year and what's there to say there is a writing desk made for Marie Antoinette and a gold bracelet bearing Queen Victoria's face that was a gift to the Rothschilds from the queen herself there are 25 000 Antiques and artworks in this beautiful mansion and that's not even the only property that they own that's just one of the 1800 luxury Laden Mansions as if hundreds of properties weren't enough the Rothschilds also owned hundreds of businesses across the globe their most lucrative one is Agora oil and gas which was bought by Meyer am shell Rothschild's great-grandson and Nathan Meyer Rothschild's grandson Lord Rothschild for an insane 370 million dollars this was a a solid decision by Lord Rothschild since oil and gas are the most necessary resources that every country needs today Agora oil and gas is worth an astronomical 1.

4 billion dollars unlike us regular folks the Rothschild family's kids probably started their counting lessons in math with 1 billion 2 billion 3 billion instead of going one two three four and just saying and like many other rich people from around the world especially from Europe the Rothschilds too have a special love for art and their taste is known to be quite impeccable apart from Exquisite artifacts of gold and silver and stunningly crafted Furniture the Rothschilds have a huge variety of art collections there are many vintage pieces too the date back to the 16th and 17th centuries how much art do the Rothschilds own in terms of money the Royal art pieces and Furniture in possession of the world's richest family are are worth a startling 2 billion dollars the Rothschilds art collection didn't just attract Queen Victoria but also attracted Adolf Hitler who stole a few of their paintings while in France during World War II the Rothschild family power with immense wealth comes immense power too from a strong political connections to control over economies the Rothschilds have seen and done it all while many have had their suspicions about how the family really amassed all this wealth others believe it is truly a master stroke of financial literacy and a knack for investing right that the family possess as let's take a look at how powerful the Rothschild family really is Jacob Rothschild established the Rothschild Investment Trust headquartered in the Spencer building in London to oversee the family's banking Assets in England the trust was called the RIT Capital partners and it's huge for a private entity this plush establishment is adorned with antique furniture and has gold in fixtures this spectacular building alone is estimated to be worn worth 42 million dollars the Rothschilds are known to always invest in high demand business projects that always seem to yield heavy returns a large portion of their wealth is attributed to the amount of gold that they collect their Rio Tinto mining Corporation is the second largest metal mining Corporation in the world their companies have spread their Roots far and wide all across the globe from Canada America and South America to Africa Italy China and Australia and all of these companies are worth 103 billion dollars collectively the Rothschilds know exactly what to go after when they're investing the most essential resources for human and economic progress oil gas and metals and talking about power how can we leave politicians behind the Rothschilds have many of them in their pockets after all the family owns not one but two large mining corporations here's how they multiplied some of their money as per Reuters in 2009 Nathaniel Ross child bought 40 million dollars worth of convertible bonds in glencar the glencore mining company is worth 127. 5 billion dollars today the Rothschilds also have 31 mining agencies operating in Australia alone which makes them the biggest Employers in Australia with that kind of power and hold on economy's wealth and even people the Rothschilds don't have to do anything else except to multiply their wealth for generations to come but who really is the most successful Rothschild there have been many generations each with many many children remember they have to keep the family wealth within the circle so who is the smartest one to be more successful than some others let's find out the most successful Rothschild of all of Meyer M shell Rothschild's sons who ventured out his third son Nathan became the most successful after moving to Manchester England in 1798 to set up a textile business he established himself as a banker after moving to London later on he set up NM Rothschild in 1810 NM Rothschild and Sons provided credits to the British government during times of Crisis during the Napoleonic Wars the bank lent funds to pay British troops and finance the war effort single-handedly and NM Rothschild and Sons is not history it is still in operation today in 2019 the bank reported 2. 34 billion dollars in revenue and an astounding 83.

5 million dollars in assets under management in 1824 Nathan Rothschild and Moses Montefiore co-founded The Alliance Assurance company which today is part of the RSA group in 1835 Nathan put another feather in his cap by securing the rights to Mercury mines in Spain which is critical to refining gold and silver seems like the man could predict Financial Futures because this purchase brought him immense profit in 1852 when NM Rothschild and Sons started to refine gold and silver for the Royal Mint and the mag Bank of England Nathan Meyer Rothschild built gunnersbury Park in 1835. it was his first land and house estate in Great Britain he paid an at the time astronomical seventy thousand dollars to buy it then he went ahead and revamped the Posh mansion and decorated the surrounding landscape and lo and behold the mansion's value jumped up to 132 million dollars roughly a hundred years later the eeling and Acton councils of London bought it that price is putting the best of Hollywood's mansion's current price tags to shame this shows that Nathan Rothschild was always in for the Long Haul he planned things decades ahead and reaped the benefits later long-term Investments were a crucial factor in his growth so here we have it the lesson Nathan had patience Nathan didn't look for instance gratification Nathan was smart be like Nathan but was Nathan Roth's child all about keeping money to himself nope he was a philanthropist and contributed generously to many areas of the Jewish Community his family later expanded these charitable efforts to Paris and London he started his philanthropic efforts with synagogues in London later other Rothschild family members helped in supporting the development of Israel by investing in constructing housing and government buildings all of Nathan's charitable foundations were taken care of by his youngest daughter Louise and Her Seven Daughters he had around 30 Rothschild charitable foundations in Frankfurt alone these foundations range from public libraries orphanages and hospitals to homes for the elderly and special education funds Nathan also extended immense financial support to the Jews free school in London and it didn't stop there he also provided support to various education related efforts in Austria France and Israel Nathan surely was the smart one among the Rothschilds but overall what generous Deeds did the family do with that wealth let's find out the Rothschild family and philanthropy the Rothschild family has made its mark on the world through their incred wealth and also their generous philanthropy the family has established an extensive network of charitable trusts and Foundations investing in health and education in many countries around the world this wealthy family is well known for its generous donations to a variety of humanitarian Concepts they have funded medical research established educational scholarships supported the arts and culture and provided assistance to those in need and philanthropy wasn't just about giving financial aid to them the entire family liked to be wholeheartedly involved in their philanthropic dates from dental clinics a free public library and a swimming pool to old people's homes orphanages scholarships soup kitchens and hospitals there were all kinds of charities in Frankfurt however the family had the most variety of Foundations in Vienna perhaps along with the hospitals orphanages and educational foundations there was also a municipal theater and a foundation for destitute photographers doesn't that make you want to say cheese now if you're done clicking a few selfies it's time time to study because the Rothschilds focused heavily on funding educational initiatives and support for young people was always their top priority they supported the Jews free school in London's East End for many generations in London and Paris they formed the four percent industrial dwellings company limitat and the Rothschild Foundation respectively for social housing purposes the Rothschilds weren't limited geographically in their generous efforts in fact most of Israel's early economic success is because of the Rothschild family they founded numerous colonies for Jewish settlers in Israel for the new settlers economic growth the family opened a silk Factory a Vineyard and a flower Mill and introduced new crops such as grapefruit and avocado healthy and fancy even in their generosity the Rothschilds don't fail to impress no matter what they do recently the Rothschild family has been focusing on providing education and opportunity in disadvantaged communities in the Middle East and Africa they have also provided job creation and economic development Aid in these regions the Rothschilds don't donate only money to charity they have donated an estimated 60 000 pieces of artwork to public institutions in the past so their philanthropic efforts aren't just thoughtful healthy and fancy but creative too can I have the original Mona Lisa please the Rothschilds in the 20th and 21st century not everything lasts the way it started and the same can be said about the Rothschild family while the rumors of their enormous wealth still continue to do the rounds the real figures have never been revealed and that's why there's speculation if they really do have as much wealth as is stated everywhere even if you see different figures in different media one thing is for sure the Rothschilds are still rich as hell Wars politics and family rivalries may have fluctuated the family fortune over the last 100 years but it's far from God there were a few bad days in the 20th century the Naples branch of the bank was closed in 1863 and the Frankfurt Branch closed in 1901 due to lack of male heirs the Vienna Branch shut up shop in 1938 following the Nazi invasion of Austria and the danger posed to Jews the Vichy government in France seized the Rothschild Bordeaux properties during the war that's not all the Nazis also stole millions of dollars worth of Art and other expensive objects from the Austrian branch of the Rothschild family some of these artifacts were returned by the Austrian government to the family in 1998 after all those hardships and challenges Through The Years in 2008 all of their Holdings were reorganized under a single company unifying the family's two centuries-old business ass started by the five sons of Maya Rothschild spread out across Europe currently the Rothschilds continued to make investments in a variety of Industries including oil banking real estate and agriculture their vast wealth provides them with a unique ability to capitalize on opportunities and sent Trends in the markets among the young Rothschild family members is James child who married
