I’m not all that into politics but I stumbled across this and have never heard anything about it, which is shocking all things considered. Apparently, Hillary turned a $1,000 investment into $100,000 in less than a year by speculating on cattle futures lol. Apparently someone modeled out the probability of such a return during that period and the odds were 1 in 31 trillion! Even though it occured 37 years ago I find it interesting that I haven’t heard anyone in the media speak about it. There’s been a lot of focus on Trump’s wealth relative to investing in a index fund. so I thought this would allow for a humorous juxtaposition. I can see Trump bringing this up in a general election debate lol.

Has anyone heard about this before?

Cattle futures speculation? I’m not surprised. Cows like her know where their own kind is headed.

Wow, old story. Been discussed in many threads. Post allocation of trades. Was simply a way to funnel money to HRC for favors. No investigation needed. Simply no other explanation possible. What’s a 100k today?
