There's nothing basically wrong with a college dropout from Coney Island hustling all the way up to a townhouse in Manhattan, a place in Paris, an 8,000-acre ranch in New Mexico, and a coupla private islands in the Caribbean - plus airplanes and a helicopter and a whole fleet of cars.
It's the kind of story Americans love to hear - "local boy makes good". It makes us want to believe that maybe the big dream isn't dead after all.
But all of that rings dull and hollow with The Life And Times Of Jeffrey Epstein.
I think for the most part, he was a pimp. But I also think there may be quite a bit more to it than that.
As bad as the pedophile and trafficking shit is - and it's plenty bad - there's at least some probability that the stories about the money are going to be even bigger and worser.
This Patrick Boyle guy's new for me - he just popped up in my YouTube feed. And though his presentation's a bit dry, this piece is chock full of interesting goodies.
