Stephen A. Schwarzman

Can you tell us about some of those?

Yeah, so I went to China, it was at Tsinghua University and the co-founder of Blackstone, Steve Schwarzman opened, funded and then raised funds to open a new international college, which was based at Tsinghua University in Beijing.

And the whole point of this college was to create a generation of high flying potential leaders who would study for a master's degree while they were in the university, but they would come from around the world.

And it was to make sure that people from every nation, including China, had a much stronger understanding of each other as part of encouraging people to have a more open perspective on who they work with and who they relate to.

And Harold Hamm looks absolutely horrified.

Steve Schwarzman, the Blackstone CEO, worth 12 billion.

Dan Gilbert, the founder of Quicken Loans, an owner of several sports franchises, worth 6 billion.

Michael Milken, the former Wall Street trader and junk bond king who went to jail in the early 1990s.

And he's reportedly donated $1.5 million to a super PAC supporting Democrat James Tallarico in Texas.

Then we have Blackstone billionaire Stephen Schwarzman, who gave $3 million to a super PAC supporting Susan Collins, who's running for reelection in Maine.

He apparently ran in super similar circles to Epstein.

I guess they visited the same private clubs and stuff.

And Henry Kravis would say that too.

That's what's got Steve Schwarzman into finance.

Hey, we can take a company and leverage it and make a ton of money.

In the process, we're going to bankrupt the machine tool industry, but that's okay.

In fact, he was in Japan last month saying to the Japanese leaders, you need to look at what I did at Hudai so that I can do it for you.

And I think we should take him at his word.

But if you came in at any time in the last 30 years and said, hey, Henry Kravis and Steve Schwarzman are wrong.

They're dead wrong.

The Schwarzman Scholars Program is a fast-track expedited program of one year only.

It's happening in China, and it's founded by Steve Schwarzman.

who is one of the well-known philanthropists in the US.

They will be exposing us to various mechanisms and systems and policy makers throughout China, building a lot of connections and worldview on how things around us work and how systems change can be brought forth.

We wouldn't be here for it not for him.

I know another guy in private equity who says we all stand on the shoulders of giants, of guys like Jonathan or David Bonderman or Schwarzman or Henry Kravis.

And he did a fantastic job building this business.

He saw the potential for sector specialization in private equity in the early 90s when there were some other private equity firms, but they tended to be generalist.
