Instead YouTube gives me literally nothing but AI spam. :/
I scrolled down a bit more and got this: https://i.postimg.cc/fJcPhG45/Screenshot-20251118-150802.png
Scrolled down some more and this: https://i.postimg.cc/v1khnhRp/Screenshot-20251118-151325.png
I kept scrolling until I ran out of relevant results. Not a single video was legit. I don't think I've ever seen so much AI slop in one search term and by the gods there is a lot of crap on YouTube.
Anyone have a good comparison video? I'm just wanting a decent comparison of Actual, Firefly III and possibly HomeBank. Feel free to also give me your 2 cents on whatever you use :)

Epstein often played the role of middleman, handing off messages between the banker and the former prime minister. In one note, Epstein passed along a tantalizing offer from de Rothschild to Barak: “if Ehud wants to make serious money, he will have to build a relationship with me. take time so that we can truly understand one another.” Barak asked for advice, deferring to Epstein’s supposed expertise on women—“I’m ready,” he wrote, “But I need your advise re HOW? (ladies is your forté).”
Neither Barak nor de Rothschild responded to requests for comment from Drop Site News. The Handala hacking team is suspected of having links to Iran, but Drop Site has been able to verify the authenticity of a number of private details in the Barak email database. Many of Epstein’s emails have also been verified via the House disclosures.
House disclosures show that Epstein and de Rothschild remained close in the years before Epstein’s death. In an email exchange in 2018 with former Obama White House counsel Kathryn Ruemmler, Epstein gossiped about de Rothschild’s marital issues with Benjamin de Rothschild, heir to the Rothschild fortune. He wrote to Ruemmler, “ariane said ben giving her a very hard time, and did not know about tattoo…she said he wants her to do wife like things. ugh.” Ruemmler replied, “Barf.”
In early 2013, while Ehud Barak was entering the final months of his term as Israel’s Minister of Defense, he was being privately courted by international private banks in Davos, Switzerland, who sought to use his political connections to attract ultra-wealthy individuals as new clients. In March 2013, soon after he resigned from the defense ministry, Barak received a “rainmaker” agreement from Boris Collardi, then-CEO of Julius Baer Group, a Swiss private bank based in Zurich.
The agreement offered Barak CHF 600,000 (over $750,000 USD) for a one-year retainer, while naming him as a “strategic advisor” offering geopolitical advice to bank leadership. In his pitch to Julius Baer, he recommended the bank seek out new sources for capital in “uncharted waters”—proposing in an email, “Russian, probably Chinese as well as Jewish (non US) capital as new major sources for capital.” (Simultaneously, Barak signed a million-dollar contract with Renova Group, a Russian conglomerate, as Drop Site previously reported.)
