- Giuliani’s biographer claimed he was completely broke right now
Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani found himself “penniless” amid mounting legal fees and after spending $250,000 a month “for fun,” his biographer has claimed.
Andrew Kirtzman, a journalist who has covered Giuliani for decades and published a critically acclaimed biography of him last year, told CNN that although he made $100 million in five years, he had everything wasted.
“He had several divorces. He lived very high, his ex-wife said they spent $250,000 a month on pleasure.
“He lived very well and now he is penniless and faces prison.
“Giuliani was once worth $100 million. His Giuliani Partners were founded to capitalize on his 9/11 fame. The place brought in $100 million over five years,” the biographer added.
Giuliani, who played a major role in responding to the September 11 attacks while serving as New York’s 107th mayor, now faces a litany of civil and criminal legal problems.

He was sued Tuesday by his former lawyer and longtime friend, Robert Costello, over allegations he owes her $1.36 million in unpaid legal fees in several cases.
Giuliani said The New York Times that he was “personally hurt” by Costello’s actions.
“It’s a shame when lawyers do things like this, and all I will say is that their bill far exceeds anything approaching legitimate fees,” he added.
The two men first met when Costello was a law student working for Giuliani’s federal prosecutor’s office in Manhattan, as the Brooklyn native earned his reputation by taking down some of the city’s biggest underworld figures. the Big Apple.
Kirtzman told CNN: “Costello represented him in four investigations – three of them criminal – 10 civil suits, two expungement hearings. I don’t even know if that includes sexual harassment by a former employee.
“Giuliani just has this deep attraction to danger and he has no one to blame but himself.”
The former U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, one of the most prestigious positions in the world of prosecution, is also indicted in Georgia for his alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election in favor of Donald Trump.

He is also involved in a civil case in which a jury will decide how much he owes two Georgia election officials for defaming them.
Kirtzman said Guiliani will have to take a long look at himself in the near future because much of his recent life has been in service to the twice-impeached former president.
“This is all in the service of Donald Trump, and I think if one day Giuliani finds himself in a prison cell, he will really have to ask himself if this is all worth it,” he clearly warned.
