Bain Capital has only about 400 employees, but Romney created 100,000 jobs while there?
Six big winners out of their 77 investments:
Bain produced about $2.5 billion in gains for its investors in those 77 deals, on about $1.1 billion invested. Those profits accrued over a 15 year period, 1984-1999, so the average yearly gain was only 8%. The S&P 500 increased from 165 in 1984 to 1469 in 1999. If they had simply invested in the S&P 500, the returns would have been far greater!
