If there are differences found, how would you know which is accurate or not?

I'm going to do that. Waiting for Black Monday for deals on 23 and Me. I'll let you know.

I understand that brothers and sisters can have different percentage make up due to the gene lottery when your conceived.

On Ancestry, the results change as they collect more samples and are able to more accurately identify regional subgroups. That was actually the criticism of Fauxcahontas test. They really didn't have Native North American tribal control samples.

I just did an ancestry dna test and I am 5% Native American. My daughter did one too and she is 20%! My wife’s isn’t done yet, but I suspect that’s where the Native comes from. So I’m 50 times more Native than Lieawatha. The other thing is that the tests can’t really narrow down between South American and North American. Since my maternal grandmother was Mexican and my wife is Mexican American, I’m pretty sure the kids ain’t Cherokee .

Now I want to know where my darn casino franchise money from WinStar is...and where my reparations for the “trail of tears” are!

And to think I might have gone to Harvard for my MBA instead of SMU...I just checked the wrong box. Where do I go to get my “white privilege” that I’ve been hearing about.
