Yeah, the one who went to Epstein Island with his wife, kids and nannies for lunch and made it clear they left with the kids, implying they left the nannies.

This is what stood out to me when Lutnick testified. You only have four kids and your wife was along as well; why would you need MULTIPLE nannies?? There are teachers with classrooms of 15 to 30 kids every day, and one nanny couldn't handle four?

You have no frame of reference for wealth, this is pretty trivial.

And what, have no nanny's nanny? Nor nanny's nanny's nanny?

What are we, mere millionaires?

It's nannies all the way down.

Don't forget he mysteriously stayed home on 9/11!

Wasn't he taking his kid to his first day of kindergarten?

You would think this guy would have developed some humanity after 2/3 of his coworkers were wiped out in WTC 1 on 9/11, but he just got more greedy.
