1949 – 1950 It can be said that Marcos came from a poor family and that he made his first million as a first-term congressman in 1949 and 1950 selling import licenses. He bought a Cadillac to celebrate his new status. Before then there was no outward indication of any wealth. 1954 When Marcos courted Imelda in 1954, he brought her to a bank vault and showed her stacks of hundred dollar bills but no gold bars. He didn’t open his first overseas bank account till 1967. But in 1988 and thereafter the Marcoses decided to talk like it was settled doctrine that he had began accumulating gold toward the end of the war. philippinesentinel.org/2010/02/facts-about-marcos-wealth-and-plunder-by-charlie-avila/
