Jeffrey Epstein was known as somebody who had meticulous detail in every account of any issue that he looked over. Like many American men, he read plenty of journalistic material and he kept copies of it that he felt relevant to his cause. This cause, so-called, was finance but in particular financial markets.
However, it was reported that the flaw in his thinking had been to over emphasise the agency of other people. It was said this meant his conclusions were flawed or at least skewed according to preference for or opposition to other people. It was felt he went off topic because of his interest in this angle.
His own work was known to be generally accurate, but he also had a tendency to conflate issues and to make accusations that then led to a spiralling account of affairs that was inaccurate and often proved in hindsight to be incorrect. This wasn’t to the detriment of his employment but it did mean that personally he was often left confused.
