By the time his daddy died, Mitt was already filthy rich. So, he signed over his relative pittance of an inheritance to fund the George W. Romney Institute of Public Management at Brigham Young U.

As Reince Priebus wrote:

As Romney told a C-SPAN interviewer in 2006:

"I did get a check from my dad when he passed away. I shouldn’t say a check, but I did inherit some funds from my dad. But I turned and gave that away to charity. In this case I gave it to a school which Brigham Young University established in his honor. ... And that’s where his inheritance ended up."

Why did he give the money away?

"I figured we had enough of our own," he said.

Whatever money Mitt Romney inherited from his father (and promptly gave away to charity) probably wouldn't be enough to even restock the Kennedy wine cellar on Martha's Vineyard.

Remind me where the Kennedy clan got their money.
