Electrum Group Chairman Thomas Kaplan on The David Rubenstein Show

May.29 -- David Rubenstein interviews Thomas Kaplan, businessman, investor, philanthropist and art collector. He found great success with bets on natural resources and then became a major philanthropist, creating the only organization devoted exclusively to saving the world's "big cats" (lions, tigers, snow leopards, etc.). Kaplan also founded The Leiden Collection, the world's largest private holding of Rembrandt paintings, which he loans out to museums worldwide. The interview took place in New York City on May 6.

    Several thoughts 1. How can any investor be correct so many times on such high risk commodity investments? He won on silver, gold, art and oil. There has to be more to this story. 2. Hard to believe this guy has been married for 30 years. 3. Once again David Rubenstein, who has a very likeable personality but is a terrible interviewer, only asked softball questions. As a result, these interviews have turned into an public relations advertisement.

Oh, let me get really wealthy by helping destroy something so I can help preserve it via my indeed very selfless philanthropy. EGO personified.
