High-Flying Rudy
Rudy Giuliani is taking his (or Judy's) expensive tastes to the campaign trail.
Whether it was $2,010 at the Greenbrier Hotel in West Virginia, $4,034 at La Costa Resort and Spa in Carlsbad, Calif., or $5,370 at the Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco, the former mayor found himself top-notch lodging.
He also doesn't like to fly commercial. In addition to $800,000 for charter jets,
He also spent more than $565,000 reimbursing various corporate supporters for private jet travel.
Check out whose jets he's using:
The biggest chunk of those flights came via Elliott Asset Management, a New York hedge fund known by some as a "vulture fund," so-named because they buy debt cheaply from cash-starved countries, and then sue them for the full repayment. The head of the firm, Paul Singer, is in charge of Northeastern fundraising for Giuliani.
