How did Jeffrey Epstein build the $580 million fortune?

Jeffrey Epstein left behind a fortune of about $580 million when he died in 2019.

He began his career as a teacher in New York before entering the financial world with employment at the Bear Steins Bank. Later founded his firm, J. Epstein & Co, offering consulting services to very wealthy clients.

It benefited hundreds of millions of dollars from asset management and use of offline structures in low tax jurisdictions.

However, the way this wealth was created has been subject to suspicion and controversy, with experts raising questions about the legality and transparency of its financial activities./Periscopi/
