I'm more closely related to George W. Bush than Gates is to Rockefeller, but it doesn't mean a thing. I'm also related to Obama, Bill Clinton, Queen Elizabeth, and many, many more. The only thing it means is that someone did the research to find the connections. I'm betting I could connect almost anyone on this site to almost any important person in the news.
Unless it's direct ancestry or a close relationship, such as 1st or 2nd cousins, it is meaningless.
If it were actually everything, then why aren't I in the "in" crowd? I'm more closely related to some of them than they are to each other.
I think "possession of money" counts for a whole lot. There are a lot of Rothschilds in the US who are just ordinary citizens. Ask them what they got out their "bloodline."
The Gates family is a spin off from the Rockefeller, same Bloodline, just renamed
Just being distant cousins doesn't matter.
