Hello my fellow night owls. Goldman Sachs ????????????

[SamKnause]

I have a few questions.

1) When someone gives a paid speech for Goldman Sachs, is the

transcript or video of the speech available ???

2) What would be the topic and issues addressed in the speech ???

3) What is the make-up of the audience listening to the speech ???

Thanks in advance.

1. Ok so

1. Sometimes, when it suits them. Other times there is general reporting on the speech. Other times there is nothing.

2. There's no one set thing.

3. It depends on what the speech is about, who the speaker is, who's available/wants to go, how high profile it is. Some of these SORTS of things are open to other industry partners as well.

Basically there's no set answers to any of questions.

2. Thank you.

I think it would be very interesting to see a video or read a

transcript of the speech (or speeches) given by Hillary.

Since she is running for the highest office in the land, I think

we have the right to know to know what is in her speeches.

We have the right to know what she is advocating for that makes

her worth such high compensation.

4. Yes

Agree

[EdwardBernays]

5. I don't disagree

But I highly doubt it will happen....

There is some general reporting on some of them.

3. If your reference is to the goldsacs

Speech by HRC, no, there is no transcript. No press reports. No one in the general public was allowed to attend. No specific comments by HRC or her office were every issued with the exception of the general acknowledging that it hsppened.

6. That's not quite true

There were press reports. But they were VERY vague.

'Last Thursday, Clinton spoke for the AIMS Alternative Investment Conference hosted by Goldman Sachs, a closed event exclusively for Goldman clients. AIMS is an annual conference that explores the latest strategies and products available to financial advisers. At the event, Clinton offered what one attendee described to me as “prepared remarks followed by questions.”

On Tuesday, Clinton spoke at the Builders and Innovators Summit, devoted to discussing entrepreneurship and how to help innovators expand and grow their businesses. According to Politico, Clinton conducted a question-and-answer session with Goldman CEO Lloyd Blankfein. Goldman Sachs declined to comment on the subject of her remarks or why Mrs. Clinton in particular was invited to the events."

7. You might try searching You Tube.

8. Excellent questions; thank you.

9. I suspect you'd see

Bigfoot and Santa Claus smoking a joint together before you got those transcripts. And if there's WAS any video, it's long since deleted for obvious reason.

This is a noble effort but it's doomed to fail. Why? She doesn't care what any of us want.

[SamKnause]

10. I want to know what she is 'selling'.

I want to know if it can be used against her.

I want to know if it proves that she represents Wall Street

and is giving lip service to her supporters.

I know she doesn't care about me or the needs of millions of people

like me.

[draa]

11. I would love to know that too

but Hillary Clinton, the anointed one, is not going to release any speech. Not one where she's selling access to her power should she win the White House.

That's what you're looking for and I agree it would be fantastic to see it, but even if there was, she would just shrug it off. There's certainly no way she'd release it.

I don't think she'd release one where she's talking about mundane crap, much less one that would make her look bad. I could be wrong but knowing Clinton I doubt it.

12. Put Her On The Defensive....

Demand that she release transcripts of her speeches to GS or for that matter any Wall Street firm. Whether that demand comes from Bernie himself or from the People it should put her in a very uncomfortable position trying to explain her way out - kind of a damned if you do - damned if you don't. I'm really surprised that a request like this hasn't come up sooner. Don't you think even her avid supporters would want to know what she said?

13. So she gave a speech to my company at our annual meeting...

We paid her.

It was a good speech, it was motivational, and she pushed the women in our company to do more to continue to grow. Overall really good speech and pretty motivational...

Probably not what you wanted to hear.

14. I'm sure if elected she will give very good value for the money she was paid
