So ***** sick of people saying this like it's a bad thing. So what?
1) He tries to play himself as a self-made man. Perhaps there's some undercurrent of genius flowing through the beard that we're all just missing and indeed, he has an edge on life and is making money on his own, or, Occams Razor, his father was imprisoned for squirreling away insane sums of money and otherwise claiming that really, various assets belonged to immediate family members, of which Dan is one and it's very likely he has a gigantic trust fund or numbered bank account somewhere in the Caymans.
Which do you think is more likely?
2) Dynastic wealth *is* a bad thing- a horrible, very, very bad thing- and he would make a perfect poster boy for the reason why. Go get detarded about how money works in the macro. Start with Adam Smith, then Thorstein Veblen. Question answered.
