That article was so amazing. Ironically my Mom recommended it, and she should know from unhappy Ivy league grads. *heh* But I'd head about it from David Brooks' oversimplifying butchery summary in the NYT this past week and was intrigued to read the real thing. Most interesting was how often alcoholism was a problem in the group simply because, with their wealth and connections, it was much harder for them to "hit bottom" when they were getting sloshed at the club every night. One of the failings mentioned in the comments above.
