Hillary Clintons son-in-law, the mediocre money manager Marc Mezvinsky, is shutting down a special Greece-focused investment fund that had lost nearly 90 percent of its value over the past two years.
The Eaglevale Hellenic Opportunity fund, which had raised $25 million from investors, was pitched as a bet on economic recovery in Greecethat hasnt panned out, exactly. The fund reported a 48% decline in 2015, when Mezvinsky told investors that his firms predictions about the Greek economy had proved incorrect, and hasnt recovered.
Mezvinsky, who married Chelsea Clinton in 2010, founded the investment firm Eaglevale Partners two years later with the help of Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein, a prominent Hillary Clinton supporter. Billionaire investor and Democratic megadonor Marc Lasry was also an early investor in Eaglevale.
The firm, which manages about $330 million in total, is down 1 percent on the year, which is slightly worse than average for hedge funds. Since its inception, Eaglevale has posted what the New York Times described as uneven performance.
Mezvinskys financial trouble is unlikely to concern wife Chelsea, who has said she could never bring herself to care about money. That didnt stop her from turning down a $600,000 annual salary at NBC News to do basically nothing except interview the Geico gecko from time to time. The couple lives in $10 million luxury condo in Manhattans trendy Flatiron District.
Mezvinskys father, former congressman Edward Mezvinsky, served five years in prison for stealing money from his friends, family and associates through a series of crude scams.

Did you ever think you’d see a chipmunk that wasn’t cute?
Oh, the grueling speech schedule must be an absolute bear.
I blame the Hat. LOL
Or could it be the hair??
If you see that pic on the left, there is no way that isn’t Webb Hubbell’s kid.
I’d be willing to bet that Bill has always shot blanks.
What is missing from the article is that this is the second time it has happened! In 2010 he lost $300 million from another fund. And it was reported then that he (they?) may have covered it up for some time.
I believe that was the same year he married Chelsea !
Along the same line, there's the story of a German General buying an estate in East Germany - in LATE 1944.
Since I have a Face fit for Radio, I won’t comment on looks except to say that the Woman in the other picture wearing the Black Hat has NO resemblance to the picture on the right.
Of course, I think little Chelsea is as ugly on the inside as her Dear Mother. She learned from the best.
No big deal. I’m sure he’s a great fund manager. He can just ask his mother in law to keep the fund propped up with her Clinton “Charity” Fund money (wink wink) . Heck, maybe she already has been doing just that.
Many thanks for the links.
So I guess you never got an email from a Nigerian general. (smirk)
Mezvinsky was a marked sucker from the beginning. The cunning Nigerians knew he would believe anything.....and was greedy as all get out.
They kept upping the ante to get in on the “black ink” deal.....and Mezvinsky fell for it, hook line and sinker.
A neigbor’s cat used uglification on chipmunks.
News flash to the writer. She didn't turn it down. Perhaps he/she meant to write "stop her from taking" or "cause her to turn down".
That will teach those stupid investors for not “investing” in the Clinton Family Foundation Fund!
I’ll bet he is as crooked as his father and the whole Clinton family. My first question would be, “did he actually invest the money in the Greek scheme?” He may have simply pocketed a few million for himself. Once a crook, always a crook.

Replevy the equity in the condo. Either Hillary stole it, or this stooge Mezvinsky did.
