"All Ritters were rich." Well, properly speaking I am Karel Jiří Ludvík Polák rytíř z Frankle-Hochvartu / Karl Georg Ludwig Pollak Ritter von Hochwart. (Ludwig August Frankl Ritter von Hochwart was my great-great-uncle and I am his nearest heir.) And I'm as poor as a church or synagogue (shil) mouse, which ever is the poorer!
Charles Polák

It was a great honor for a Jew to become a Ritter.
Only under the Habsburgs,I think , was this possible.
All Ritters were rich.
Money made you noble or Nobility made you money ?
Not far from where I lived was the Villa Anhauch , a Jewish noble , on Josefsgasse.
