It seems as though many from the first half of the 'overlapping generation' of anointed ones were much more sincere, humble, hard working and kind compared to the second half of the 'overlapping generation' of so-called anointed ones.
As I mentioned, my tuppence worth is that the older ones we knew were mostly " anointed" by virtue of their being baptised pre 1935 when all had the "heavenly hope"- whereas the later ones actually had to make themselves different to everyone else by claiming to be " anointed".
Either that or old people tend to be less egotistical.
