B-but phrasing is my stress. Yes I was definitely struggling to figure out what words I wanted to use while keeping within the limit. I didn't want it to come off like a monopoly, but deed was the word that came to mind and it definitely implies monopoly. I was thinking more along the lines of the mercantile charters of old or "compacts," which is the closest thing to in this case--it just didn't come to mind. I wanted to go off on a long tangent about access, which was essentially where I wanted to go with the more money->more access->more power. My thought process was attempting to lean more towards his family's access to the world and less towards the monopoly route and then putting that into a document form.
