George H. W. Bush was a paid Carlyle Group adviser, and reporting also described him as an investor. The bin Laden family had about $2 million invested in Carlyle. After 9/11, Carlyle benefited from the surge in defense spending making $237 million in one United Defense stock sale while Carlyle bought out the Bin Laden family’s stake. The Bin Laden family had a 2 million dollar stake in the Group. An estimated 15 million dollars was made for their family alone. The Bush family exact profit was never disclosed.
