After Researching Some of the Oligarchs and Sanctions
One has to wonder how many Russian/Ukrainian oligarchs are simply "strawmen," or "cut-outs" playing an assigned role for the big money players who want to stay hidden behind the scenes. I'm starting to believe that even Soros falls into this category to some degree.
J.P. Morgan is mythologized still today–for initiating new global conglomerates, like U.S. Steel, International Harvester and General Electric. He supposedly had controlling interests in Aetna, Western Union and 21 railroads. He also supposedly saved the US from a monetary collapse in 1893, and again in 1907. Yet after his death, Rockefeller saw how much money Morgan left to his heirs ($80 million) and said, "And to think he wasn't even a wealthy man."
Of course, these days it's not beyond the pale to believe that J.P. Morgan was simply a "straw man" for the Rothschild banking dynasty in the US. A little research into this makes it actually quite believable. Now, many people believe the Rockefeller dynasty (and others) might have played, or are playing, a similar role.

During the Panic of 1893, The Federal Treasury was nearly out of gold and there was no central bank in the States to support it, so it resulted in an economic crisis. But Morgan founded a banking syndicate and along with the Rothschild banking family of England, loaned over $65 million to the federal government.
An exact thing happened during the Panic of 1907, also called the 1907 Bankers’ Panic or Knickerbocker Crisis, when the New York Stock Exchange fell almost 50% from its peak from the previous year and led many banks and business into bankruptcy. The case would have worsened and the provoked downfall for the entire nation if Morgan didn’t invest his own money and convinced other New York bankers to do the same in order to save the banking system.

It's getting very easy to see through the many "big name" celebrities we're all given to gawk at, in all walks of life, and in every industry. Certainly, nearly everyone in the entertainment business, the media, politics, CEO's, etc. fall into this category. This is not to say that they don't get paid well or that they don't get a lot of nice bennies. It's just that there is a pretty big catch or 2.
