Talk about cautious, Chairman of the AEI lives in a reinforced Mansion
Edited on Fri Apr-27-07 09:59 AM by ck4829
Bruce Stanley Kovner (born 1945 in Brooklyn, New York) is an American businessman. He is the founder and Chairman of Caxton Associates, LLC, a hedge fund that trades a global macro strategy. Kovner is also the Chairman of the American Enterprise Institute, the premiere American neoconservative think tank. With an estimated current net worth of around $2.5 billion, he is ranked by Forbes as the 292nd-richest in the world.

Kovner is not well known outside of professional circles. He has very rarely given interviews, and is notoriously private. His 5th Avenue Mansion in New York City features a lead-lined room to protect against a chemical, biological, or dirty bomb attack.

Why is being paranoid a prerequisite to becoming a leading force in the Conservative movement?

3. Cheney also doesn't show up on infra-red scans.
Dead bodies are invisible to infra red.
