Irgendwie ist es immer so eine Sache, mit Brüdern und Schwester. Meist sind die interessen unterschiedlicher, wie Sie nicht sein können. Beispiel gefällig? Al Capone und sein Bruder Vince. Der eine wurde zum gefürchtetsten Kriminellen zu Zeiten der Prohibition, die Ihn darüberhinaus auch unendlich reich und mächtig gemacht hat, der andere, also Vince, war das genaue Gegenteil. Er war Polizist. Ein ausgezeichneter Polizist:

In most families, Al would be the embarrassment. However, while he was out making a success of himself by criminal means, his brother “Vince” ran away from home to join the circus, fought in WWI, and eventually became a policeman. Not in Illinois obviously, that would be a conflict of interest. In Nebraska. Vince spent Prohibition shutting down the same type of illegal alcohol productions that were making his brother rich and powerful. He was known as “Two-Gun Hart” and became famous in the Midwest for his law enforcement prowess. Al Capone must have been mortified.
