I was just correcting myself
right place right time
Right place, right time, good at politicking, well liked, drank and espoused the Koolaid, and worked hard. Returns / some sort of insane investment acumen are not what put him into this seat.
If curious about him, there is a podcast he is on if you look on Spotify.
