In reply to the discussion: Epstein: Files in the Ointment [View all]H2O Man
(77,766 posts)34. Great questions!
Extremely wealthy people who make their fortunes in private funded him. For example, look into Epstein's investments in a foreign nation's weapon production. One of the extremely wealthy people the public is unfamiliar with told him to invest. That is among the ways to finance an Epstein without leaving a trail. It's not the only one. (One can give a "friend" money to invest, such as when a Saudi prince gives Jared a few billion to invest in the West Bank.)
Epstein only had one blood relative when he died, his younger brother. The brother was not in Epstein's will. It appears that some went to pay off various legal cases, including lawyers and some victims.
