revealing his wealth. One thing about him (Rex), he is one of the founders of the St. Louis Chess Club here in STLMO, one of the premier chess clubs now in the country, if not the world. I'm a big fan of chess, but haven't been to this club yet (in the CWE, STLMO). So, I give him a plus for this (the chess club).

It's amazing that folks such as this want to avoid letting others know of their wealth...why? To avoid taxes and the like? There may be some other rationale for folks like this to not reveal their wealth (e.g., lottery winners of big jackpots), but I am leaning towards the avoidance of paying taxes. Also, why resist letting folks know who you're supporting w/ your money?
