In the last episode, we talked about the financial ascent of Bobby Baker, whose net worth increased from $10,000 to $2.1 Million net worth while he worked for Lyndon Johnson as Secretary to the Senate Majority Leader. That’s an impressive climb. But, Baker’s wealth was a drop in the bucket compared to the subject of today’s episode – Billie Sol Estes, who claims that his net worth in 1961 was a whopping $400 million dollars.

In this episode, we cover the rise and fall of Billie Sol Estes, with an emphasis on Estes’ connections to Lyndon Johnson, and the mysterious death of federal agriculture official, Henry Marshall.
