Sounds right. But you forgot my personal favorite money source.

---Second Wife bilking millions from 3rd generation family business by alienating diseased soon to die husband from family.

<where did the money come from?
--small business owners
--the huge increase in home values (my parents bought their very modest home in 1963 for 12k, now worth 30+ times that)
--people who simply saved, 401k's, other tax deferred accounts for 20-30-40 years, didn't touch a dime, let it compound
--people who bought one of more great stocks and put them away (like the story I told of someone who bought PFE and put the certificates in a safe deposit box for decades and saw it grow 100's of times
--etc>
