u can look at this tree and see that jb is not that closely related to tom.
there was a huge fight when old man jay died. as u can see from a chart on this page, tom got twice as much money as jb. wd u b on good terms w the guy who got the lion’s share of the family money?
afaik, jb has not traveled in the circle of the epstein class. he has invested his money in things like early childhood ed and a tech incubator in the merchandise mart. there r tons of things in chgo w the pritzker name on them, but those r not jb’s doing.

there r some very good ppl in that tree. jennifer’s construction co has done amazing rehabs of several landmark properties in my hood.
but yeah, some r big ole pieces of shit.
