      They didn’t say they knew him better than Pelosi. Merely that Pelosi is a beacon of honesty.

      Isn’t she the most successful investor of all time, like more successful that people who do it for a career.

        You have a problem with Pelosi? The man has helped a lot of com0anies in the silicone valley. I find it amazing that you have a problem with the most successful speaker…

            Her husband makes millions by investing venture capital. She really doesn’t need Insider trading. But, spread the nonsense, I really don’t care.

              You realize that his win/loss record is better than Buffet’s right? He only makes millions because of the hit tips and insider trading coming from her role in congress.

                Hell you say. The first trillion dollar business.will emerge from silicon Valley within the next few years. There are a lot of people there that take higher risk to get higher reward than Buffet.

                  That’s not what I said.

                  I said that his win/loss ratio was higher. Given the nature of the investments pelosi makes, you’d expect there to be one moonshot that pays for all the other losing investments and maybe a few more that were weakly profitable.

                  His win/loss ratio outperforms Buffet, which suggests he has inside information that’s better than Buffets. (Or did you think buffet was some kind of genius? Neither are. They just have better information than the average investor.)

                    Higher risk/higher reward. Paul Pelosi takes higher risks. How is that so hard understand? He puts money into a company like Apple BEFORE it goes public. High risk. Then they go public and he makes millions. Then Buffet buys stock in Apple. They make more money. Buffet has just taken lower risk for lower profit. Pelosi doesn’t need inside information, just guts to make the bet. That’s what venture capital is.
