#58: Could Epstein’s “Pimp Island” Affect Your Investments?


Listen Later

Wassup cash-maker's,


Let's take a gander at Epstein's boys, shall we?
- Donald J. Trump
- Bill J. Clinton
- Prince Andrew of Wales (who?)

You tryna' tell me some big-name CEO-types weren't visitin' creep-o-island? Of course they were. 

There's risk out there in them markets, people. I'm not saying sell, just hold onto your hats, it could get bumpy as Ghislaine Maxwell (Epstein's business manager) starts to speak.

How about our guests?

- Osman Arain, bangin' portfolio manager
- Lancey Joe, bangin' comedian

Yo, make sure you check out Lancey Joe's comedy show - the best independent show (I think) in the city called Comedy Tub over at Chicago Joe's, every Thursday, 8pm.

Onwards: opioids are fo' real. The Sacklers' (fam that owns Purdue Pharma, biggest dealer of opioids to vulnerable Americans) talm' about settling for $12bn ($3bn cash, $9bn from FUTURE sales of supposedly legit opioids). I think the Sackler's should've died in the 80's with parachute pants. 

Finally, we hit up JUUL, vape-capital of America. These dudes bout to get investigated like Gayle King interviewing R. Kelly. FTC, FDA, ETC. Teenagers startin' to show up at hospitals with seizures and other illnesses. At the same time, Altria trying to re-unite with Phillip Morris - listen in to see if Altria owning 35% of JUUL will stop the merger of Marlboro's.

Chill and make cash people,

Peace
Amer
