    "If it's too good to be true, then it probably is."
    Have you been lured into a Ponzi scheme or something resembling it? How did it end?

      The only reason they are still out there is because of corrupt government officials. If they wanted to arrest them they could. But why? They make millions off their bribes and banks.

    Still a big win for him cuz he got away with it and lived a billionaire life for so long till old, however, this dude's talents and skills prob would have gotten him billions legitimately without having to steal and scam.

    • @notroll1279
      @notroll1279 6 років тому +55

      Not really. His "talents and skills" basically were scamming. When he was a young stock broker he went through a short bear market - and his clients' portfolios suffered as anybody else's. So his "talents and skills" in his actual business were quite average - he just decided to invest his own savings into his reputation by retro-engineering some deals that would have been profitable (had they been authentic). Financially, he wiped himself out in the process.
      And then he saw the light, stopped ploughing in his own money and set up a Ponzi scheme.
      As an average portfolio manager, he might have made a few millions on Wall Street over the years but not have risen to the status he achieved by fraud.

      The three-digit jail sentences are political statements to the public. With the so-called "Hannibal Lecter", it was to show that "we punish the scary evil doer to get your gullible votes." With Madoff, the message was: "try to steal from the rich and the powerful and you'll die in jail." E.g. bankers never got punished.

      I just thought I’d let you know that’s not how karma works. Karma is where you are reincarnated into another person or animal when you die depending on how good you were in a previous life, so a good man might be reincarnated as a wealthy person or even a god; however a murderer might be reborn as a rat or a goat or something.

Just because currency value doesn't match your "evaluation" of what you think, or what you have been told to think it should be. doesn't necessarily mean there is anything shady going on, I mean what do u want us to do? go back to collecting shiny rocks to trade amongst one another?

At the time I was the new locker room assistant and was 15-16 years old. His brother - Peter was a member of the club and would bring Bernie as a guest to play golf, have dinner, etc. Bernie came off as a very respectful, down to earth, and generous guy which made the arrest all the more shocking throughout our workplace. To this day, me and other staff still laugh at how we all perceived Bernie to be the more kind and "not as cheap with staff" as opposed to his brother lmaoo.
