If it was Trump, he would declare bankruptcy -- excuse me "used the laws of our country to his advantage"-- and tell us that the people who he stiffed are sharks and killers who know what they were getting into.

Absolutely no one would be doing that.


I imagine his investors would.

So, sorry, I'm just asking - is this son-in-law of a candidate running for office? Should we start listing the yucky things Trump's kids do? His sons are big-game hunters.


And his son-in-law's father was prosecuted for fraud by then U.S. Attorney Chris Christie. Must be cozy on that transition team.

The plot thickens....

Read this juicy article regarding Jared and Charles Kushner. Jared seems like an okay guy but his dad - that is something else.

Back to the main topic - even before this, people on this board called Marc slimy whenever he was mentioned. Why did you call him slimy? Did people on here kinda, sorta know him? The latest news certainly did not paint him in a good light. What does Chelsea see in him?

True, but losing 90% may well be a world-record.

Of course, that is just a dent compared the the Bill and Hillary slush fund.


The Greek economy tanked. People who invest in HF know they are risky. When they work, they get huge returns. $40 million is a nothing hedge fund anyway. Why do you think he stole the money? Did Fidelity steal your money when the market crashed?

Nope, I've seen funds lose greater than 100%.

This is news only if said fund was marketed as "AAA+ ALL GOOD BONDS" and somehow some of the money ended up in Greek debt. But it's marketed as "GREEK DEBT FUND" then, well, yeah, it's not a surprise when Greek Debt Funds lose money.

Congressional investigation, pronto!

The only correct way to steal other people's money is to declare bankruptcy.... multiple times.

The fund is a corporation under (probably) Delaware law so if it lost more than 100%, it's just declare bankruptcy.

Not the same PP, but this happens with some regularity. Not sarcastic at all.

Yeah. But the 500,000 dollar fee he took for losing 25 million ain't bad. Kinda Fiorina-like


One person's loss is another person's gain. Finders Keepers.

It is mathematically impossible to lose more than 100% -- then you already have 0.
