Bankman-Fried's FTX, parents bought Bahamas property worth $121 million

Do the Democrats protect their bagmen, or throw them under the bus?
The documents for another home with beach access in Old Fort Bay -- a gated community that was once home to a British colonial fort built in the 1700s to protect against pirates -- show Bankman-Fried's parents, Stanford University law professors Joseph Bankman and Barbara Fried, as signatories. The property, one of the documents dated June 15 said, is for use as a "vacation home."
When asked by Reuters why the couple decided to buy a vacation home in the Bahamas and how it was paid for -- whether in cash, with a mortgage or by a third party such as FTX -- a spokesman for the professors said only that Bankman and Fried had been trying to return the property to FTX.

The federal government will investigate Twitter, everyone who ever met Trump, and Ticketmaster before they look into FTX.

So professors make enough to buy $121 million vacation homes? No wonder college tuition is so expensive

The guy is a total scumbag and should go away forever, but FTX execs also gave A LOT of $ to Republicans, it was all about buying power, not just deomocrats, who I disagree with about 99% of the time, but this is not just about Democrats.
D's got $60M and R's about $45M according to Coldfusion podcast

The title reads as if they bought a $121M property. Still a lot of money but different

That is what I had heard. They bought a bunch of condos in Albany resort when they moved the company there.

Hopefully, one day you will get your hands on that elusive straw.
"Barbara Fried leads Mind the Gap, a secretive organization that funnels massive amounts of money to Democratic campaigns, according to Influence Watch"
The FTX CEO’s family — which consists of his parents, Joseph Bankman and Barbara Fried, and brother Gabe Bankman-Fried — has contributed hundreds of thousands of dollars to Democratic candidates and actively worked with left-wing organizations committed to supporting Democrats. The four appear to have had subtle influence on the Democratic establishment for the better part of a decade.

At this point I’m just paying attention to 1- figure out how many scum bags in the gov were paid off
2-waiting for these fall guys to start turning up in ditches - you know some of them will be straight up fall guys but some of them actually are guilty and know some shite
3- I wouldn’t be surprised if some bad hombres are pissed they got their money stolen so that’s an option #2 to start the death pool

Oh the irony. The pirates now reside inside the gates.

Yet nobody is pushing the scumbag politicians on returning the fraudulently obtained money…
One guy asked Maxine Waters but was summarily dismissed.

And snotty grads want others to pay their student loans.
The wise decision would be to reverse the policies that are driving up tuition costs.

Imagine the smugness and arrogance from these two.
They're probably treated like royalty, they hit every box on the list except gayness, and thats probably in there somewhere.

Sam Bankman-Fried's FTX, his parents and senior executives of the failed cryptocurrency exchange bought at least 19 properties worth nearly $121 million in the Bahamas over the past two years, official property records show.
Separately, attorneys for FTX said on Tuesday that one of the company's units spent $300 million in the Bahamas buying homes and vacation properties for its senior staff, and that FTX was run as a "personal fiefdom" of Bankman-Fried.
This is incredible. So deliberate with "IDGAF" intent.
Can you imagine being an investor who gave cash to these buffoons and reading a headline like what's above?
