wow :O That's pretty ****ed up
I love how you're gullible enough to believe the opinion of a stranger on the internet, who backs his claims up with no evidence or sources.
Don't see the relevance here of the fact that they are Jewish. Would they have been referred to as a 'Christian influential banking family' or an 'irreligious banking family.' Jews don't control the world, there are plenty very poor and living in poverty, try telling them that they rule the world.

I hear a lot, especially rappers. I remember this specific line by the rapper Lowkey.
"I hold your bloodline, accountable for every crime Adam Smith to Rothschild, it's all been a clever lie"
I tried searching on Google but hardly any pictures. From my research their a family who made a bank or something in the 17s. Why are they "evil"

read a book
i suppose im still a little shocked it took people here rap music to learn about Rockefeller or the Rothchilds
Some of you lot are quite unhinged. Alex Jones?! Read a book won't you?
You guys are what happens when you use YouTube videos, conspiracy theory websites, RT and rap music as your material to learn about the world. It's like you have absolutely no concept of critical thinking so you end up buying into this crap and making guys like Alex Jones millionaires

500 TRILLION?!?!? HOLY SH*T. I can't make 5 quid you're taking about 500 trillion :O By the looks of it they own 90% of the world. Anyways what are they doing with all the money. Where even is that money ? 10000s of bank accounts ?
If you collected all the money in the world it would not amount nowhere near that. As of 2011, its estimated to be $1,185 billion in circulation.

Bill gates is all about population control. Didn't his father work with Margaret Sanger? The woman who started this whole planned parenthood thing?

You're a blithering moron. Like most people of low intelligence, you know almost nothing about anything but that doesn't stop you having strong opinions about it.
They don't live in America, they are an English family you dunce. It's not crazy (I mean, you are, but it is not) because they don't control a whole country. Pretty much everything conspiracy theorists claim about the Rothschilds is completely untrue.

You seem pretty upset to be resorting to insults.
I'm a conspiracy theorist,get over it

No my dear, just the facts. And it would appear to be a crowdpleasing statement too; best of both worlds.
You are clearly not particularly bright given your laughable statements about the Rothschilds living in America and controlling "whole countries". My statement stands; like all people of limited faculties, you know very little about the subject about which you're speaking but that doesn't stop you being highly opinionated about it
Yet smart enough to get into medical school
By which you mean to say a BSc in Biomedicine? In any case, I'm pretty sure that your conspiracism has a "religious" tinge to it which would explain your particular flavour of delusion and bigotry

Rothschild is a boutique bank, working in advisory and they do some PE investments - named after the family.

WTF?
Do you even know what "planned parenthood" is?
And you said "bill gates is trying to reduce the population in Africa by providing 'vaccination program' wink wink." What vaccination program are you referring to?

WTF (again)?
Where tf are you getting these from? Are you crazy?
Although the conspiracy theorists won't buy it, I think it's worthwhile to give an outline of the actual history of the Rothschilds.
There is no such thing as the Illuminati. There used to be a group in late 18th century Bavarian called the Illuminati. They were shut down by the government and ceased to exist.
Most conspiracy theorists possess a very poor understanding of history and a disinclination to read actual history books, and thus they miss out on finding out how history is actually really interesting without having to embellish it with conspiracy nonsense (though admittedly, many conspiracy theorists have mental problems that lead them to these delusional beliefs).
There's no doubt the Rothschild family (who are distant cousins of mine, though it's fair to say that anyone who is descended from early 19th century Anglo-Jewry are probably distant cousins) were extraordinarily powerful in the 19th century. The story about buying up all the consols after the Battle of Waterloo is true. There were also other families like Baring who were very powerful ("The shares are a penny and ever so many are taken by Rothschild and Baring", if you know your Gilbert and Sullivan).
They (families like Rothschilds, Baring, Coutts, etc) were essentially the central bank of their day, and the fact they had large holdings in railways made them tremendously influential. However, they started to falter by the 1920s. The Rothschilds great advantage had always been that they were a pan-European banking family, and that they had something akin to an intelligence network and couriers who would take information between London, Paris, Vienna, Frankfurt etc to give them tips so they could lead the market before the information became general knowledge.
Things were already challenging at the beginning of the 20th century, as mass media and communications like telegraphs, newspapers, radio (from the 1910s) proliferated, their inbuilt advantage in possessing information in a time of slow communications started to fade. Also, in the first few decades of the 20th century, the partnership structure of their business (owned by family members as partners) began to be a hindrance; they were going up against competitors which were publicly limited companies that raised capital through the issuance of stock. From the time of the Liberal government of the 1900s/1910s and increasing all the way to the time of Attlee, death duties / inheritance tax decimated their wealth. Whereas as a bank structured as public limited company would never face their core assets being subject to death duties (because the company is a legal person in itself which never dies), the Rothschilds partners faced a swingeing tax each time a generation died off.
The 1940s were a very bad time as both the German/Austrian and French banking houses had their assets seized by the Nazis. While the French banking house got most of theirs back, the German/Austrian house got pennies on the pound. The Rothschilds never really recovered from that. The final death blow came in 1981, when the French socialist President Miterrand nationalised the French banking house, Rothschild Freres.
By the early 1990s, the English branch of the family had a fortune measured in the single digit billions (iirc it was about 3 billion in 1992). They have had a rebound in the last couple of decades, enjoying very strong asset growth and I think Sir Evelyn de Rothschild is worth about 20 billion now. But that is obviously far from the trillions the conspiracists claim
The true history and story of the family doesn't have all the "sexy" embellishments, but frankly I find it far more interesting
