THREE generations of the Rockefeller dynasty have given over one billion dollars to philanthropy. This amount, however, is only a very small portion of the immense Rockefeller holdings.
For the most part, the third generation (and now also the fourth) have forgotten the tough, sharp, predatory business practices of the first. They have lost the taste of battle for glory – with one notable exception, the present leader of the dynasty.
The elder John D. Rockefeller created the largest scale of dynastic power in the modern world. More than any of his contemporaries he succeeded in carving out of the wilderness of America an empire so vast, so wealthy, so solidly entrenched that none dared to resist it. He became, in truth, a ruler of “royal” authority, the founder of a dynasty.
That dynasty and that empire are today in the hands of the leader of the third generation. He is the youngest, the most scholarly, the one who preeminently has retained the qualities of the elder Rockefeller, and who understands ancestral prestige.

That Google brings up a link to a bogus wikipedia article does not automatically make the wikipedia article bona-fide.

Oh and by the way, why does his last name HAVE to be pronounced 'beater'? Why can't it be 'better' or 'bater'?
