J. EPSTEIN & Co. Internship

Apparently he got rich in wealth management, but probably got rich cause he would hook up friends with underage girls.

I was curious to how he earned so much money. I know he stole $46MM from the rich guy in Ohio, who "decided not to press charges".

The reason certain people like Epstein or Bernie Madoff get to where they are in life is that they have qualities like charm and intelligence that would have made them successful even if they weren't pedo rapists or scam artists, respectively.

Epstein had connections, seems to be a personable guy, was intelligent enough to make money, and I'm sure got lucky like everyone who makes that much money does. None of that has really anything to do with his...other interests. Kevin Spacey is a fantastic actor. Bill Cosby was a father figure to many. Jerry Sandusky was a championship winning football coach.

People can be good at things and still be fucking horrible people.

I'd saying an intelligence asset helps (and before anyone thinks I'm being conspiratorial, I'm going off what https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/alexander-acosta-dodges-when-as…</a">Former Labor Secretary Alex Acosta said). I'd go on about his ties to Ghilsane Maxwell (and her father, Robert - he was allegedly working for Israeli Intelligence and recieved a State Funeral in Isreal, which alone would be usual but speaks volumes to there being something up about that) or the allegations that his mansion was wired for surveillance, however conspiratorial it sounds, but I think Acosta's comments speak loudly for itself. I think that definitely allowed him to a trump card in in his back pocket, so to speak.

"VanityFair" Some of the businessmen who dine with him at his home ... sometimes seem not all that clear as to what he actually does to earn his millions. Certainly, you won't find Epstein's transactions written about on Bloomberg or talked about in the trading rooms. "The trading desks don't seem to know him. It's unusual for animals that big not to leave any footprints in the snow," says a high-level investment manager.

"VanityFair" Why do billionaires choose him as their trustee? Because the problems of the mega-rich, he tells people, are different from yours and mine, and his unique philosophy is central to understanding those problems: ...

"VanityFair" Gell-Mann rather sweetly mentions that "there are always pretty ladies around" when he goes to dinner chez Epstein, and he's under the impression that Epstein's clients include the Queen of England. Both Nowak and Dershowitz were thrilled to find themselves shaking the hand of a man named "Andrew" in Epstein's house. "Andrew" turned out to be Prince Andrew, who subsequently arranged to sit in the back of Dershowitz's law class.

"VanityFair" One reporter, in fact, received three threats from Epstein while preparing a piece. They were delivered in a jocular tone, but the message was clear: There will be trouble for your family if I don't like the article.

"VanityFair" Epstein is known about town as a man who loves women—lots of them, mostly young. Model types have been heard saying they are full of gratitude to Epstein for flying them around, and he is a familiar face to many of the Victoria's Secret girls. One young woman recalls being summoned by Ghislaine Maxwell to a concert at Epstein's town house

His entire "Hedge-Fund" was a front for his pedo/party network. "Investors" payed him for his services (access to underage girls, access to high-level individuals, invites to parties with high-level individuals etc.).

Am I the only person who would like to know where the hell Ghislaine Maxwell is? She was right at the center of this with Epstein, and apparently did a lot of the actual sexual abuse herself along with orchestrating it. In so many of the photos she's creepily smirking in the background.

This whole thing might the most insane story of the 21st century. What we know so far may well be only the tip of the iceberg, especially if they really did have blackmail material on so many powerful people.

"VP in IB - Gen" what skills did JE possess that allowed him to get so impressively far in life?

master manipulator

Epstein did not kill himself
