Social classes have changed.

I'm a WWII fan, and the one thing I've noticed about this time period is that all of the "big players" went to the same handful of schools and knew each other before they became important. For example, Winston Churchill and Franklin D. Roosevelt dated the same woman in their youth because they "ran in the same social circles".

But the classes has changed. While the old school play polo and have summer houses in Boston or Florida, the new classes would rather buy a summer house in Montana or Mexico. The new class could care less about how others view them and do what they want.

Speaking of social classes, did anyone know that Anderson Cooper from CNN is a Vanderbilt child?
