The New Yorker: every month, I ask myself why I continue to subscribe to The New Yorker. Not today!.
The current issue has a 16-page article on how President Trump invests in America. It's behind a paywall, so later, I will summarize the article. But it will take awhile. There's ever indication that Trump will come out of his presidency wealthier than Hunder Biden, but it could be close. It would be nice if The New Yorker would do the same for both the Obamas and the Bidens. And, of course, I don't think anyone could out-do Barack Obama, coming from where he was when he started to where he is now. So, I put the "presidency" jackpot winners in this order. I'm not measuring net worth; I'm measuring "where they were before the family presidency -- where they ended up after the family presidency":
- Hunter Biden
- Barack Obama
- Hillary and Bill Clinton
- the Trump family
PGA: with two holes left to play, Scottie Scheffler is now tied for first in the BMW Fedex tournament.
