...solely the value of the abracadabra. Blackstone and other private-equity firms collect a profusion of fees--from the companies they buy (like the charming Chinese custom of billing victims of capital punishment for the bullets used to kill them) and from their investors and usually a nice 20% of the profit when they sell the firms back to the public...
