- 1:07Speaker 1: Oh, he was worth about four or five hundred million.

- 1:25Speaker 1: tons of money, running a hedge fund, running all sorts
- 1:28Speaker 1: of stuff.
- 1:28Speaker 4: Okay, So he was obviously a small guy.
- 1:30Speaker 1: Yeah. He actually was a mathematician before he did this,
- 1:34Speaker 1: and then because of that mass skill, he was able
- 1:36Speaker 1: to figure out all kinds of financial things. And he
- 1:38Speaker 1: was apparently a genius reason a lot of these guys
- 1:41Speaker 1: put money in with him. He was a genius at
- 1:43Speaker 1: how to avoid taxes legally, how you could use shell
- 1:46Speaker 1: companies put it off shore.

- 2:23Speaker 1: Robert in Westchester. Robert, how you doing good.
- 2:27Speaker 2: Morning, Mark, and thank you for taking my call. Mark.
- 2:30Speaker 2: Last night, Bill O'Reilly had announced that as of today.
- 2:33Speaker 2: He said, as of today, if the midterms are being held,
- 2:37Speaker 2: that we will probably lose to Congress and tie with
- 2:41Speaker 2: the Senate. Now I'm praying every day for the you know,
- 2:44Speaker 2: President Trump in our country that with these numbers that
- 2:47Speaker 2: are coming out, I'm praying they only get even better.
- 2:49Speaker 2: But President Trump.
- 2:50Speaker 1: But yeah, you first, we remember something, all these poll numbers,
- 2:53Speaker 1: everything you see now means absolutely nothing. It's like trying
- 2:55Speaker 1: to predict a super Bowl winner for twenty twenty eight.
- 2:58Speaker 1: It doesn't mean them.
- 2:59Speaker 2: Now I had no arguments.
- 3:01Speaker 1: Okay, great, Let's go to Harold in Warwick. Harold, how
- 3:04Speaker 1: you doing.
- 3:07Speaker 2: Good? Thank you?
- 3:07Speaker 1: Mark.
- 3:08Speaker 5: How Come how come Savannah Guthrie is making fourteen million
- 3:12Speaker 5: dollars a year? How come she can only I can
- 3:14Speaker 5: only scraunch of fifty grand for a for a ransom
- 3:19Speaker 5: I'm to pay for information.
- 3:21Speaker 2: This is like ridiculous.
- 3:23Speaker 5: A million dollars would maybe loosen up some people around.
- 3:26Speaker 1: That's good point. A lot of people have even law
- 3:29Speaker 1: enforcing people off the record. It said, it's a pretty
- 3:31Speaker 1: chinzy reward. Fifty thousand. It should the rewards should be
- 3:34Speaker 1: much higher. But you gotta remember in tucsund things are
- 3:36Speaker 1: much cheaper. For instance, you saw the house that's a
- 3:39Speaker 1: one point two million dollar house she lived in. If
- 3:42Speaker 1: that house were in Long Island, that would be like
- 3:45Speaker 1: a nine million dollar house. Everything's just cheaf. We were
- 3:47Speaker 1: in New jersey'd be like a seven million dollars everything.
- 3:50Speaker 1: It's an enormous house with a pool, everything. It's just
- 3:53Speaker 1: cheaper out there, So fifty thousand out there could be
- 3:55Speaker 1: like two hundred and fifty thousand. Here, let's go to
- 3:58Speaker 1: Lorenzo in levent Lorenzo, how you doing good?
- 4:02Speaker 6: To hear your voice. I want the world to know
- 4:04Speaker 6: that Donald Trump, God bless him, has done more to
- 4:07Speaker 6: help American veterans than all the presidents after Reagan. And
- 4:10Speaker 6: he's done more than Reagan and almost much as FTR
- 4:13Speaker 6: with the GI bill and the world should know this
- 4:15Speaker 6: and also pose of war and vmcl antacts we should
- 4:18Speaker 6: roped up bowl Richard Valley animal practice. They help American right.
- 4:22Speaker 1: I had to break it to you, but for the
- 4:23Speaker 1: last twenty seconds you were unintelligible. You were talking so
- 4:25Speaker 1: fast and mumbling. Nobody could understand one thing you said.
- 4:29Speaker 1: I had a better shot understanding the bad Bunny lyrics
- 4:31Speaker 1: than whatever you just said there. Yeah, Donald Trump, veterans
- 4:34Speaker 1: was always a major cause. He was going back to
- 4:36Speaker 1: the nineteen seventies. In fact, there was a time in
- 4:39Speaker 1: the I think it was the early eighties. The Veterans
- 4:43Speaker 1: Day Parade is a big thing in New York every year,
- 4:45Speaker 1: and I forget why the organization ran out of money.
- 4:47Speaker 1: They had no money, and for the first year ever
- 4:50Speaker 1: there was going to be no Veterans Day Parade in
- 4:52Speaker 1: New York. And then Donald Trump stepped in and paid
- 4:56Speaker 1: for it, personally financed it, and then took the organization
- 4:59Speaker 1: and worked with them and got them back on their
- 5:01Speaker 1: feet financially and saved it. But hey, when we come back,
- 5:04Speaker 1: the brilliant Steve Forbes Big Job number came out today.
- 5:08Speaker 1: We'll talk to him about the economy, about the midterms,
- 5:11Speaker 1: the country. We'll get to all of that next on
- 5:14Speaker 1: seven to ten wor
