Even better is in the Susan Foundation episode and that guy lists all that would have been Georges in some way, despite all series that yes, Kramer just falls into money.

George mooched off his parents until he got a stable job with the Yankees, and my head canon is that Kramer was actually a drug dealer on the side.

And Kramer wasnt unemployed, he was on strike.

Jerry and George are both landing high level meetings

George has baseball money

Elaine has publishing money and was pretty high up in that company but I totally forgot how they wrap that plot up

Peterman comes back. I think Elaine just goes back to whatever she was doing before he left.

Kudos, Elaine, on a job.. done.

You could probably call George's employment status/work ethic a characteristic. He's a realtor when the show starts, IIRC.
