I would like an economist to explain exactly how wealth ( in any form you like ) can be preserved for 150 years.

My instinct says that, like anything man-made, wealth has a half life - it begins to decay exponentially the instant it is created.

I don't see how.

From the article in Gina's original post :

"But proponents, more than 100 of whom crowded into Norgle's courtroom, said the issues in question were unprecedented and deal with modern era discrimination."

The last 3 words of that sentence is what causes me concern.
