Mitt Romney, has been deliberately dilatory with releasing reports concerning his vast wealth of firing people money. For whatever reason, the Republican Presidential Candidate has decided that there’s no better time to capture people’s attention than on a Friday evening in the early summer as it appears Willard has finally released his much ballyhooed financial reports.
According to the reports, his net worth is between $190 million and $250 million. His capital gains income was at least $4.5 million. He showed some income from speeches and writing. The unemployed multimillionaire made a vast chunk of his wealth by selling a slew of stocks in a wide range of companies — including Procter & Gamble, Aflac, American Express, Apple, Exxon Mobil, Google and JPMorgan Chase — all of which were managed by Goldman Sachs and Thornburg Investment Management. So it looks like corporations are some people’s best friend.
He also reported a fortune in several off-shore accounts. He listed no liabilities.
It seems all of Romney’s assets are tucked away in blind trusts and he does not make decisions about what is bought or sold according to the report. He has not released his 2011 tax returns.

does mr.romney know where joseph smith´s book of gold is? didn´t mr.smith own a bank in ohio? what happened to that bank? why were farmers employed to write down the translation of the book of gold. what were the exact circumstances of the translation. just curious.
if mr.romney wins will the baldyheaded eagle on the great seal be replaced by a vulture ???????????? you know, a turkey buzzard.
mr.romney has swiss bank accounts but wants us to believe that he is a superb businessman. swiss bank accounts are no longer safe and opaque. i advise mr.romney to try jersey, the septic isle, the british virgin islands where prim monster of siam mr.thaksin has reportedly $4 billion and protected by china macao and hongkong.
mr.romney is against medical merrywanna. the majority want madical merry juana legal or they just like a toke. does anyone think that mr.prim and proper can win? deleting people from the florida roll will work IF the election is as close as 2000. that close is unlikely to recur. the british royal family works at trying to stay in touch with the common man and in fact they have made it an art form. mr.romney, in my opinion, is more like the bourbons. they learned nothing and forgot nothing. didn´t the habsburgs have dancing horses? the last kaiser abdicated about 94 years ago. everything is relative. mr.romney wouldn´t make the fortune rich list. therefore, like poorer men, he is the errand boy of the megarich point one percent.
