—”Wrong....man folks assume a lot on this guy.”

ABSOLUTELY!

Why this guy stays in Chicago is a mystery to me.

And he spent megabucks to keep the fat slob of a governor out.

[Mouton]

Wow. What is he doing in crapcago!

Chicago has some very wealthy areas—but even years ago I remember visiting relatives in one of those areas and thinking “this is not going to go well, you need to get out of this city”.

Some folks just have no early warning detectors.

—”It better be made of gold and have its own harem.”

No mention of amenities provided.
Harems are old school and his gold is deep in a vault.

“According to local media reports, Griffin bought the top four floors of a new condo tower on the Gold Coast for $58.5 million. And he’s buying raw space. So he will spend millions more to turn the space into a home.

The space will total more than 25,000 square feet.”

The perception of crime has started making it difficult to recruit talent to Citadel’s Chicago campus, he said, and he can’t in good faith tell people the city is a good place to raise a family anymore.

Florida's free and safe...and we plan on staying that way. Ken Griffin's welcome to move here... an added bonus? NO STATE INCOME TAX.

IIRC, Ken Griffin was born and raised in the Sunshine State.

And that’s why they pay an MBA a $150k salary

As long as it didn’t affect the business on the loop or the tourists, it was okie dokie.

It’s a condo.. Ken Griffin will break it up into 3 condos and sell them all as penthouse units.

[American Infidel]

When he pulls up stakes and moves Chicago will take a big hit to their tax revenues.

Citadel just announced today (6/23/2022) that they will be moving their firm to Miami.

Another huge business that generates massive tax revenue moves out of a democrat-run hellhole. Get woke. Go broke.

Lori lightweight and the bloated Illinois governor will not be pleased.

So, they’ll just make up for it by fleecing the US taxpayers.
