Ill start with the Wallenbergs. The next person who posts should provide the name of the family and facts about them which indicates more influence, power, and wealth than the previous post. If the family doesnt have more of those qualities, then a family with slightly more or less equal status is fine too.

I understand that its somewhat subjective. Just try.

The Wallenberg family are a prominent Swedish family, Europe's pre-eminent, most powerful business family and dynasty,[2][3] renowned as bankers, industrialists, politicians, bureaucrats, and diplomats.


Quote
The Wallenberg sphere's holdings employ about 600,000 people and have sales of $154 billion a year.[4]


Quote
he Wallenbergs control and are majority owners of most large Swedish and other European industrial groups..


... containing more or less 120 companies

Quote
In the 1970s, the Wallenberg family businesses employed 40% of Sweden's industrial workforce and represented 40% of the total worth of the Stockholm stock market.[10]


Quote
The Wallenbergs have a very low-key public profile, eschewing conspicuous displays of wealth. The family motto is Esse, non Videri (Latin for "To be, not to be seen").[32]


Additionally, they are leaders or members of the following groups: Bilderberg Group, Trilateral Commission, International Chamber of Commerce, European Round Table of Industrialists, Institute of International Finance, World Economic Forum

So if you're a Wallenberg then you're hit some kind of lottery. Anything else except that some people are basically dragons in that they hoard more resources than they ever can hope to use at the expense of others?

I'm personally hoping that social media will be cleansed from the world in a Butlerian type Jihad against thinking machines.
