Explanation:

Jewish immigrants, especially during the World War era, were known for their monetary skills and handling of money, and generally grew not only in wealth but also in status. This led to the generalization of anti-semitism that only grew until it exploded during the Great Depression and World War II, leading to Nazi Germany rounding up and murdering European Jews (and other minorities) in death camps across Europe.
