Summary
This document is a contentious email from Jeffrey Epstein to Leon Black, dated January 6, 2016. Epstein expresses deep dissatisfaction with a $20 million payment for recent transactions, arguing he is owed $50-60 million based on prior agreements and the value of his work, which included finding millions in dormant accounts, handling tax issues, and restructuring assets like Phaidon and the Gagosian contract. He criticizes other advisors (Alan, Brad Karp) and lists specific financial achievements to justify his requested fee.
