    My understanding is that all of the venture capitalists who invested in oracle became successful, not just the one who was married to a congressperson.

    Capitalism itself is the conspiracy, I’m not sure capitalism+marriage makes it an extra level of evil, lol.

      Sure, but this one then became much richer than he already was through marrying a congresperson who consistently outperforms the market herself in spite of having no background in stock trading prior to achieving various political posts that inherently bring inside information.

      Capatilism+exploiting your marriage with a corrupt politician for unfair financial gain or BEING that endlessly corrupt politician, on the other hand…
