Alexander Morrison, born on March 27, 1968 is the older brother of Dave Morrison and is the father of twins Alexa Morrison and Damian Morrison. Alexander grew up as the only child in a middle-class household in Los Santos. Two years later, Dave was born, altering the family dynamic that would come to shape both brothers’ lives.
Alexander grew up as the only child in a middle-class household in Los Santos. Two years later, Dave was born, altering the family dynamic that would come to shape both brothers’ lives.
The Morrison family embodied what many would describe as a typical American household of the time. Hard work, honesty, and self-reliance were core values in the home. Success was believed to be earned, not given, and there was a quiet pride in providing for oneself without shortcuts. These principles were drilled into both boys from a young age, forming the foundation of their moral outlook.
For Alexander, this upbringing coincided with a period when the American Dream still felt tangible. He became obsessed with the idea of rising above his circumstances through discipline, education, and personal ambition. He wanted more than stability—he wanted status, influence, and proof that he had made it. Success was not just a goal; it became an identity he actively pursued, seeing it as the ultimate validation of his worth.
As Dave grew older, the contrast between the brothers became increasingly apparent. Dave’s carefree, rebellious behaviour clashed directly with Alexander’s structured mindset. Where Dave rejected responsibility and lived in the moment, Alexander saw recklessness and wasted potential.
Over time, these experiences hardened Alexander’s personality. Constantly positioning himself in opposition to Dave reinforced his belief that he was the disciplined one, the capable one, the brother who understood how the world truly worked. This comparative dynamic fed a growing ego and a subtle but persistent narcissism. Alexander began to view his own success not just as earned, but as evidence of inherent superiority.
In school, Alexander’s discipline translated directly into academic dominance. While Dave’s grades steadily declined, Alexander excelled across the board. He graduated as valedictorian, a distinction that cemented his self-image as the embodiment of merit and effort paying off.
Following high school, Alexander enrolled at university to study economics. He viewed the field as the purest expression of power, systems, and control—an academic framework through which societies, markets, and people could be shaped. Over time, Alexander continued into postgraduate research and eventually earned a PhD in Economics.
