I will never understand those people

Jared Kushner has more money than he’ll ever spend in a lifetime, but I am watching an MSNBC report that his company took loans totaling hundreds of millions of dollars. Why? What do they to accomplish with that kind of cash?

No hope in that quarter.
Not sure how much money Ivanka’s business actually has. Would not be surprised that it too is a vanity business.
I would not be surprised if the whole family of grifters is operating on fictional money.

And flat broke. No way Jared will find a billion dollar investor. Hes off to prison with a very large restituion that he will have to hand over in prison. Cannot leave prison until 4 billion has been paid to the government. Hell hell never reach it when hes on a 24/7 lockdown prison in Florence, Colorado.

.... HE DID NOT PASS HIS BACKGROUND CHECK. Anything else is pure b.s..

Regarding the mortgage for 666 Fifth Avenue: “The company still holds half of a $1.2
billion mortgage, on which it hasn’t paid a cent. The full amount is due in February 2019.”

Actually this past year (2017). To these people dealing with these large sums of money is the same as you and me dealing with hundreds or thousands of dollars. They have been doing it all their lives and that is why they sincerely think they are superior to everyone else. There are no rules that apply to them since they have never been punished and have always gotten away with everything they do. They genuinely believe they are better than us. When Ivanka says we need to stay cool by making champaign popsicles she really thinks we have champaign in the fridge.

14. They don't have all that money - it is a pyramid scheme

They have to keep raising/borrowing more money in order to pay off past debts and to maintain their lifestyles. Think Bernie Madoff but with real estate and foreign influences.

Once they miss paying off their loans - like Trump did when he declared bankruptcy with $913 millions dollars in debts - they are subject to being controlled by nefarious organizations. One possibility is that bankruptcy is what got Trump hooked up with Russian mob/money-lenders and got him involved in money laundering.

That's why he's been doing everything he can to get more cash.
