Think about how crazy this is. Epstein was hired as a math teacher at an elite high school without a college degree. Typically math teachers at an elite high school need at least a master's degree. He was fired because he was a bad math teacher. You have to be pretty bad at something to be fired for being a bad math teacher. 

Then without a college degree he was hired at Bear Stearns. Most people that get hired at Bear Stearns went to Harvard or Wharton. He became a partner there in just X years but was fired for being involved in some sketchy stuff. 

Then he goes on to launch his own firm where he's managing the portfolios of billionaires who are using him exclusively. 

A guy without a college degree who was so bad at teaching math that he got fired ends up being worth $XXX million dollars and nobody is really sure where all the money came from.
