Happy Birthday "45","46","47" #76
Ex Zillow CEO/Co-Founder & Palantir Board Member Connected to the deceased president of The Order Of Malta.
Rascoff & Lowenstein families. Former Goldman Sachs banker Spencer Rascoff is the founder of Zillow & also "founded" Hotwire.com in 1999.
He resigned from Zillow in 2019 & left the board of directors in 2020. Since then the company was caught red handed using algorithms to manipulate home prices to buy then flip for profit.

Prince Rupert Loewenstein (Rolling Stones business manager/Lowenstein LTD) A scion of the royal houses of Wittelsbach and Löwenstein-Wertheim, met accountant Joseph Rascoff in a urinal.
That led to Rascoff being the Stones accountant and turned into a tour production/logistics magnate. He also took over the financial matters of the Elvis Presley Estate, David Bowie, and others.
Funny story. Typical miser, but he's right when it comes to frivilous spending. :
"Mr. Rascoff sometimes tried to convince his rock-star clients that they did not need excessive perks. “He moaned like it was his money,”
Mr. Zysblat recalled. “So if an artist wanted a two-bedroom suite, he’d say, ‘But it’s just you — you only need one room.’ Or: ‘Really, do you need audience lights? Why don’t you turn on the house lights?’”
Is Spencer the greedy and shady offspring or did he blow the whistle on the company? You decide. His father dies in 2017 & he resigns in 2019. Was his father pulling his strings?
