And the reason Melinda divorced him.
Serious or joke?
We can only speculate, but his infidelity with staffers was known, and him being on the Epstein list may have been the final straw.
A decent person would have gone to the press with it, but she's wealthy so she didn't.
Because it would reflect poor on her, too. It's like when people don't report being victims of sexual assault, because they know people will look at them differently forever, doesn't even have to be that extreme, just imagine being a normal family in a normal neighborhood where everybody knows everyone for decades, and then you find out your husband has a fling with a younger woman. It's just embarrassing, you know?
You and me and all of us lie all the time about way less embarrassing things, because we don't want to be seen a certain way, as victims, as having been duped or gullible or even the butt of a joke.
Imagine on that level, where you are married to one of the richest men in the world, and your rollerdex contains thousands of names to some of the most powerful people on the planet, and you "go to the press with it".
It would change your life forever, the scandal would stain every aspect of your life F O R E V E R.
And he didn't donate shit without an economic incentive, it's all a tax writeoff, it's all a scam. Even that shit he did pumping money into AIDS research as "charity" went into companies where he held stake himself. It's so fucking vile.

Didn't know that, but not surprised.
In an email sent after Gates went to have dinner with Epstein in his Manhattan mansion he wrote A very attractive Swedish woman and her daughter dropped by and I ended up staying there quite late
They broke their arms patting themselves on their backs and can’t write checks anymore. 😢
And I don't believe shit of it. I think all their "donations" to foundations and "charity" are tax scams. I've seen so many of these deeply immoral and greedy fucks do this and go on charity drives and I'm not buying any of it, I know these people are just scamming us somehow, they don't do anything out of the kindness of their hearts and betterment of society, it's all about money.
The worst part is- they are not the problem per se, the system is. The system creates this, capitalism creates this, it promotes these people to the top sure, but if not them then anybody else willing to sell their souls to the literal antichrist.
Capitalism is a malignant cancer and needs to be excised and chemod or we all die. DIE. Civilization GONE. Humanity GONE. Culture GONE.
It's us or capitalism.
by followed up you mean: "Ok after I die, I will donate half of my money to my tax-exempt family-owned-and-operated charity, that just happened to only pay salaries and donations to causes that serve the interests of our family-owned-and-operated shell companies"... :D
it's like sequeezing your late's father dry-drenched cumsocket which he used his entire life, then drinking it, and brag about it... to which I say thanks but no fucking thanks.
These people are genuinely sick in the head, this level of pointless greed is not normal. Of course they aren't going through with it.
Exactly like gambling addicts. They are blinded by capitalism, because capitalism is nothing but gambling, and not only are these people addicts, the game has completely usurped society itself. Just think about it- what dictates our society? It's not our values, or ideals, our wishes and wants and dreams, it's the economy.
The Economy is a fucking golem that has overtaken democracy, we have no say, what The Economy wants always takes precedence, and the only thing The Economy wants is MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE. MORE people, MORE things, MORE money, MORE. You know what else does that? Cancer.
Exactly! And like cancer, it will eventually consume and destroy its host. It may take time, but it will.
Can't say that I'm shocked.
Once you start to have money, you get a money dependency. No matter how rich you get, the "baseline you really need to live the life you want and nothing more" growths together with your wealth.
Take lottery winners and ask them if they could give away half of their gains. Will you be surprised if most of them say no, even though the day before they would have set their "minimum needed to live a happy life for the rest of my days" at a much smaller fraction of it?
Now take a similar population, but who in addition rationalized them deserving that money through their hard work and talent.
That’s 247 billionaires we could have put in the buffet. Never trust a billionaire. Eat them at first opportunity.
Lmao fuck them my taxesare higher then half
