True or False: Leon Black claims he was so wealthy that $158 million in payments to Epstein was essentially a rounding error.

Question

Accepted Answer

Black told Puck that he never added up payments to Epstein because "every time the [Apollo] stock moves up or down by $1, that's either plus or minus $93 million." For billionaires, even massive payments turn into pocket change against their total wealth. That's how they justify spending $170 million on a guy who ran an underage sex ring. When you're that rich, moral accounting becomes as irrelevant as financial accounting.
