I read where people are calling him “kid”. Kid This a grown adult man, that should’ve been on his own paying his own bills. Ridiculous!!

My parents never gave me an allowance. If I wanted something, I had to earn it. That’s how the real world works. Even in prison.

My parents never even gave me an allowance growing up and I’m thankful for it. If I wanted money, I had to earn it. Living in your parents’ basement is not a marketable skill.

Another spoiled brat 😡

That’s wild but what’s even wilder is that we’re all as guilty as him. “He who is guilty of one transgression is guilty of them all” Oh Maker of the world 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♀️ ALL of us going down if we don’t “recognize”

Seems reasonable.

dfalls38 White privilege run a muck...

This guy looks like they morphed photos of Eric and TraitorTot.

I have no sympathy for any hedge funds vultures🙄

Affluenza strikes again... 🙄

Allowance ? Bringing up kids to expect handouts instead of earning their way..... how old is this 'kid' . Unhealthy sense of entitlement.....parents seem partly to blame.....re-enforcing dependency ..... Sounds Democrat.

Princeton education would have gotten you a job worth more than 3000 a month.. He was just a spoiled entitled spoon fed rich boy who didnt like to work.

American Psycho incarnate

Bet his allowance is way down now.

People like that have no idea how to survive in the real world.

I guess getting a job didn't occur to this kid.

This is old news. I read it in a paper over the weekend. LOL NBC.

What drugs was he on?

What people won’t do for money!

If we had a better socioeconomic system, people wouldn't be psychologically & emotionally driven to do such heinous acts. The root cause of crime & abhorrent behavior is economic desperation. The LOVE System: Life's Optimal Virtuous Economy

The poor guy was saving up for a hedge...

Whoa, the thought of getting a job, never occured to him as a solution instead of murder.

Wow Trump had better watch out his Brats are pretty ruthless.

Is this just an excuse to post a white murderer? You have posted this 200 times

Antifa supporters call for his immediate release.

Should've pretended to be a power forward and asked the Knicks for money

Really educated... In crime

Hang him.

Now he won’t even have money to buy his jailhouse b**ches candy and cigarettes.

WTF?

Now he can hedge this; he will be in the can for life

Outrageous,appalling & disgusting !

This fool was 30 years old and getting an allowance 😂.

I have mixed feelings about this.

Would this be the first time a hedge fund manager received consequences for the mismanagement of money

Surprised his lawyer didn’t go with the “affluenza” defense.....

I thought it could be a Trump but, there father was MIA - same as Vietnam.

Why does it matter he is a Princeton-educated son of New York hedge fund manager? The victim is as dead as anyone killed by an uneducated, son of a bit*h? Murder is Murder, onlty the story sells better, why is that?

Entitlement!

Is this from the onion ? Because that guy looks just like your stereo typical rich kid lol

Smh! Privilege at its finest.

Spoiled brat

Princeton grad found guilty of murdering his father after his allowance was cutThomas Gilbert Jr., who was accused of killing his father after the older man cut back his weekly allowance, was found guilty Friday of murder in the second degree. They’ll probably say he was under pressure from his father to take over the family business and he snapped or he’s suffering from a mental health illness and will recommend he goes to a mental institution instead of jail. He should've been patient. Free money is coming soon. Lol thephunion no phish tour for this guy.
