There is no single Lord Rothschild. The Rothschild family came to economic power when Napoleon was defeated by the UK (and others). Having received word of Napoleon's defeat at Waterloo, word was spread in the UK that Napoleon had indeed won, plundering the entire British market to near worthlessness. The Rothschild family then bought up a large majority of the entire British market, which returned to real value after true news of Britain's victory returned to England a day later.
