Accuracy?

edit

As far as I can tell, this article currently has significant accuracy problems. No official biography I can find mentions a number of the "facts" mentioned in this article. I will be re-writing the article substantially. If someone can point to a legitimate source verifying the current version, they are welcome to revert. (GMCViolin 02:57, 3 May 2006 (UTC))Reply

Bias

edit

This article seems to be nothing but criticism of Kevin Warsh. I would like to see less biased information and be allowed to draw my own conclusions.  Preceding unsigned comment added by Erikhansenwong (talkcontribs) 20:30, 21 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Who are you? When was this posted? Why are you anonymous? Stevenmitchell (talk) 18:13, 31 January 2026 (UTC)Reply


How this article fails to mention Mr. Warsh is an extremist Zionist Jew is incredible. It does not even list he is Jewish at all.  Preceding unsigned comment added by ~2026-26120-53 (talk) 16:28, 29 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Middle name?

edit

This might sound strange, but does anyone know what the 'M.' in Kevin M. Warsh stands for? I've been trying to find the middle names for a few of the governors, but so far I haven't had any luck. Answerthis 14:36, 14 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the answer Cythericos. Do you happen to have a link that can confirm this? I'd like to have sources to back this up. Answerthis 07:42, 2 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

Parents' Names

edit

Does anyone know the names of Warsh's parents? I am not asking for the name of his father in law. Budrose (talk) 10:39, 28 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

bias?

edit

[I]n July 2007 and a few weeks before Wall Street’s first mini-crash in August, Governor Kevin Warsh uncorked an observation that ranks among the most foolish blather ever uttered by a high financial official: “We don’t see any immediate systemic risk issues…. The most important providers of market discipline are the large, global commercial and investment banks.” -from David Stockman, The Great Deformation, 2014

Greg Ip, whom you cite for Warsh's role after all hell broke loose, is a flaming Keynesian and hardly unbiased  Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.31.161.249 (talk) 22:39, 28 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

 Not done. You need to provide sources that support this, and explain why it's relevant; we wouldn't say so-and-so was born to a Protestant family, unless there was some specific reason to point it out. Deacon Vorbis (carbon  videos) 17:56, 9 February 2026 (UTC)Reply

Wealth

edit

This biography states, "In January 2006, Warsh's filing to the Office of Government Ethics indicated that he and his wife, the heiress Jane Lauder, had US$65.3 million in assets, with Warsh and his joint accounts holding between US$916,000 and US$2.07 million in assets," but Forbes lists Ms. Jane Lauder alone as having a net worth of about $1.9 BILLION. ReallyGolden (talk) 19:57, 18 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

The article is from 2006. It directly says that Lauder had US$64.3 million then. That much should not be surprising; the market value of Estée Lauder Companies has increased significantly since then. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 04:55, 20 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
