On what basis do you say that Epstein was pretty talented at finance? This guy was a math teacher with no actual degree. The only reason he got his gig in finance was by schmoozing up the dad of one of his students, who was CEO of Bear Stearns.

The only talents Epstein really had were in cozying up the right people at the right time with the "right" stuff (which we all know about now).
