In general I agree. But it also comes with the embarassment that you failed at your job. So to avoid the embarassment you do nothing. Kick the can down the road. Hope it becomes someone else's problem. And I'd also further add that government agencies being government agencies, the people in the trenches don't want to deal with an obvious pain in the @$$ situation. You know you will be putting a lot or resources into investigating and even starting the process throws your daily work schedule into chaos. So the lower level people just ignore the report on their desk. Case in point, I once had a manager who was very old school. He hated email. He wanted everything in paper copy. You literally could not see the top of his desk because of all the paper covering it. When he finally retired, some of the papers at the bottom had turned yellow they had been there so long. I'm sure there was many things on that desk that just got ignored and the people who submitted the requests simply gave up on it. That was probably exactly what happened in the Madoff case.
Greed was well with Madoff but also with his investors. They didn't care that the returns were abnormal and made no sense - they just kept coming. Why anyone would put the whole of their wealth in another person's trust is beyond me.
A 12% return isn’t really all that unbelievable. Obviously 18% is super ridiculous. However you can’t really blame some of those people who trusted Bernie thinking if something was up the government would have caught him.
cause he the reason all them people lost their money every last 1 of madoff clients had been fine for years with no problems ponzi scheme or not everybody was paid & happy & had the weak poor excuse of a man whistleblower minded his business everybody dealing with madoff would still be getting money & happy the whistle blower ruined a lot of people pockets & caused a few deaths
He wasn’t a whistle blower. He had no inside knowledge. The guy was just a competitor that found a cheater in his industry that was protected by the SEC.
Why does Human greed or gullibility shock you..?? It's the foundation stone of the Capitalist economy we all depend on..? Mostly it works ...better than any other system..?
I wonder how long Ernie Madoff thought his Ponzi scheme would last without the market crash in 2008-2009. Since this is a fraud, soon or later it is going to collapse and be exposed.

I feel really bad for the sons, who lost everything, including their honest business. It sounds like Mrs Madoff also was not culpable, but her attitude suggests she is above it all and has no idea of the impact on regular people. I am not sure why she gets to keep $3 million. Why not take it all and have her live on Social Security like many of her husband's victims. It is not that I want her to suffer, but it seems all of their wealth came from the proceeds of Bernie's grand theft, and therefore qualifies for clawback.
It's amazing that Madoff could pull this off, especially when SEC supposedly investigated him and his "investments." He made not even one. What surprises me is his wife was able to keep a tidy sum whereby his victims all wound up dead broke.
I found it fascinating that some hedge fund managers knew damn well he was a crook. But they believed he was THEIR crook. Amazing all around & pointed out the utter uselessness of the silly, pointless, toothless SEC.

That's why they refused to have anything to do with him. Madoff's bankers also knew he was crook, because they saw that he wasn't making any of the trades he claimed to be making and that his company's only source of revenue was his so-called 'investors.'
@@CarrieFinley-g1m Of course they didn't. People who live in glass penthouses seldom thrown stones. Markopolos went to the SEC, but his analysis was buried.

I would suspect that his wife didn't ask many questions likely perhaps due to her having little or no interest in the business and she was likely happy and very satisfied raising two sons who turned out wonderfully. Along with this she would have enjoyed a reasonable social standing in the community due to Barney's standing in the industry and the good life she would have had.
They knew. There was no explanation meeting, there was just a “we are busted so let’s do plan A”…. Notice how even the son’s wife and mother words try to convince everyone that they didn’t know. No sorrow, remorse, just excuses. The son was the only honorable one who coy Don’t live with the GUILT.
I do believe Ruth. Not saying that she didn't suspect anything. But she did and still supports him in some way. You can't blame someone for being blinded by love. She might've lost more than any of them. Karma is a heavy price to pay for greed. Everyone lost in the end. Be careful what you ask for.
I think it’s very interesting both Bernie and Ruth outlived their sons by a good amount of time. In fact, the only one still living is Ruth and she’s in her 80’s. Normally, children outlive parents but not here. I just think it’s interesting.
This whole version about the family members knowing nothing... ridiculous. The sons ran a trading firm that practiced real stock trades. Two floors down, the investment business says it's buying and selling stocks, yet, the sons never wondered why their own father's investment business didn't use their own trading firm to buy and sell those stocks? The sons never wondered why they hadn't bought or sold a single stock from/for their own father's investment business? Right. Sure.
It’s impossible that a company with $65B equity. Only the head knows the reality. Those bank accounts always are checked by several people in the company . Plus the fact that of her no filling for a divorce make me think there is money somewhere.
Largest known!! Kenny griffin of citadel is still running BM payment for order flow....the new winner for largest is about to be crowned. Power to the players
Can you explain more? I really don’t like payment for order flow it rubs me the wrong way. Something I took into account when I chose Fidelity for my brokerage. I like the way they execute orders. Citadel and Robinhood did customers dirty during the short squeeze.
The fact that the sons wife will make a profit from the book just screams that they’re trying to recoup the money, how bout sending the profits to those who actually lost something valuable
It's ok. He scammed rich people with way too much money and way too much greed. And then lost it all and died alone, abandoned by his equally greedy family in prison. For me, this is a win-win.
You have no idea what you’re talking about. He scammed rich people AND many middle class people who lost their entire life savings. Who are you to judge without knowing anything?
lol, exactly what I was thinking. These lawyers always take a very high percentage. Ok if if it’s a very small amount but 40-60% of millions or billions could help recover more for the swindled clients.
The son is so full of crap, nonsense, trying to gain sympathy, and he makes me sick. All of a sudden he is a hero who wouldn’t bail his father out? After all the money his father gave him he would just leave him hanging? No honor, all greed, and I’m glad the dude is almost homeless….
David Boise himself invested in Elizabeth Holmes scam and was fighting like a pit bull for her by threatening the people who raised concerns. No wonder Dershovitz wanted to disbar him on many occasions. Now is flipping on the other side.
Allen Dershowitz is a name which always comes up when it involves criminals. Yes he is a lawyer, but look at his client roster: Donald Trump, Jeffrey Epstein, Harvey Weinstein, O J Simpson, Sholom Rubashkin, just to name a few. Dershowitz admitted that he “took advantage” of a “massage” at Jeffrey Epstein’s home, but said “he kept his shorts on”. The underage girl said she was sexually molested by him six times. The case was settled out of court (meaning he paid for her silence). DOJ & FBI look the other way because of the “don’t tell” rule. Power = Silence
It's nonsense to say that Madoff stole that amount. When he was finally arrested, Madoff controlled about one billion $, but on paper, his fake hedge fund was once supposed to be worth 60 billions.
It looks like Bernie's wife is giving off too many facial cues that she knew what was going on for quite awhile. She certainly looks and sounds like she's lying.
How does he not ask the son "You say you didn't know, but have you ever known a firm with consistent 12% annual returns? Are you lying or really that stupid?"
I do not believe the sons knew at all. Their father they knew their whole lives. Investigated and cleared by the SEC, he was the chairman of the Nasdaq. Worked on a different floor completely. I believe the sons. But not the mother.
And the son was worse. No honor and left his father hanging after the millions after getting millions. His wife and him spend all their time n how innocent they were but never say sorry OR give any money back voluntarily!!
Lots and lots of palms were greased over decades to pull that scam off. Nobody on their own could commit a crime of that size. All of it including the investors (victims) was driven by greed
I don't think the sons knew. They worked in the legitimate side. Parents can hide a lot from you, especially domineering parents. May the son who committed suicide rest in peace. The son is not to blame for the sins of their father. My sympathy to all the victims of Madoff.
To watch this now 15 years or so later I have some sympathy for his family and what his kids and wife had to deal with. obviously for the victims that lost everything. I remember having no sympathy for his family when this happened. I was almost 30. It's crazy how ones perspective can change.
Andrew's and Ruth's words ring hollow. When Andrew was asked if the father emphasized moral values. He said, he wouldn't say they discussed moral values but lived a moral life with a sense of right and wrong. That must have been on a sliding scale and as long as they got theirs off the top. For the other investigations they squeezed in just when they just ran out of morals, doggone it!! A thief by any other name is still a thief -all of them.🤬😡

I do not believe the sons knew at all. Their father they knew their whole lives. Investigated and cleared by the SEC, he was the chairman of the Nasdaq. Worked on a different floor completely. I believe the sons. But not the mother.
I believe the mother. She didn't even know what a Ponzi scheme was.
Why do the mega rich always look so weird

Authorities will never find Ruth’s money.
RUTHIE IS NOT HONEST, .........SHE HAS NO SHAME, LIVING ON THIS DIRTY MONEY.
And the son was worse. No honor and left his father hanging after the millions after getting millions. His wife and him spend all their time n how innocent they were but never say sorry OR give any money back voluntarily!!
Obviously a despot.....but am still puzzled that his punishment was worse than 90% of murderers. Or rapists.
His crime is arguably worse. He ruined thousands of lives.
It’s just money…
He stole from the rich and powerful, that's why
He was a murderer
The SEC did the same thing for SBF and ftx.
So who else got an advertisement for a blatant Ponzi scheme at the beginning of this video? 😂😂😂
Is it possible for the family to take a polygraph test ?
Polygraph tests are BS
The only person alive is Ruth and she’s in a care facility.
@@Otis1330 damn
Does the title still apply with sbf?
18:13 the real crime is a $15 tip on a $254 bill
No the larges ponzi is the federal reserve
👏👏👏👏
You absolutely right.
Insurers paid Silverstein, Taxpayers paid the families , only in America ; Land of the Fleeced and the Home of the Played
Lots and lots of palms were greased over decades to pull that scam off. Nobody on their own could commit a crime of that size. All of it including the investors (victims) was driven by greed
Bernies wife- this is a masterclass: How to make no one feel the least bit bad for you.
I like this video
I don't think the sons knew. They worked in the legitimate side. Parents can hide a lot from you, especially domineering parents. May the son who committed suicide rest in peace. The son is not to blame for the sins of their father. My sympathy to all the victims of Madoff.
Good I wanted to know as much as I can about this man and the way he makes money
"I'm gonna go get the papers, get the papers."
I got it!😂
The two lawyers pursuing this are no better than Bernie himself.
They billed over $1 Billion dollars for their services!
Most ungrateful son ever …….
The only time a gew goes to jail is if they steal from another gew
What's a gew 🤔

Wow, thanks for sharing a lifetime memory some of US still continue to remember the great author & his fantastic book, ALWELEDIM.
43:29 😂😂😂 God said you’re not getting off that easy 😂😂😂
SBF videos brought me here. IYKYK.
Excellent explanation!
To watch this now 15 years or so later I have some sympathy for his family and what his kids and wife had to deal with. obviously for the victims that lost everything. I remember having no sympathy for his family when this happened. I was almost 30. It's crazy how ones perspective can change.
it's the greed blinding their eyes and senses.
Arguably one of the greatest minds of the 20th century
Andrew's and Ruth's words ring hollow. When Andrew was asked if the father emphasized moral values. He said, he wouldn't say they discussed moral values but lived a moral life with a sense of right and wrong. That must have been on a sliding scale and as long as they got theirs off the top. For the other investigations they squeezed in just when they just ran out of morals, doggone it!! A thief by any other name is still a thief -all of them.🤬😡
Yes. That answer, which doesn't answer the question asked, struck me as a bit.. evasive as well.
@@jasonbourneistreadstone sure did. Now they're asking the public to go along with their brand of morals. More like and now you see it and now you don't..
Made off with it all and the lavish lifestyle for his family. They all paid the price in the end. A lesson needed
"Where'd the money go?"
Lets look at Israel and AIPAC.
My thoughts exactly.
same !
madoff wasn't Israeli- how silly!
@@brandonbrown4819 No one is actually "Israeli".
They're Turkish, Austrian, Slavic, or European who emigrated to Palestine and took the locals' houses and land.
@@BOBMAN1980 It doesn't matter if you say they are all from Loompa Land or are Chinese Zen Buddhists!! the suggestion that Bernie gave all the Money to Israel or AIpac is lunatic drivel
Regulation is very important ... Sincere prayers up for all the victims of this tragedy 🙏🏽 ...
Lol the ticking came on as I was checking my phone. I thought it was a bomb. 😂 I wasn't even watching this show 💀
His whole family should be in jail
Yeah, well both of the sons are already dead
We can bail out the banks but can't help the victims of this scam?
Only those whom steal from the rich are there consequences ?
The largest ponzi of all time is the US bond market
SEC dropped the ball
The SEC investigated Madoff no less than 6 times. Each time, the investigation was ordered closed from the top.
When you help the Shepard, you’re helping the sheep.
If you thought this was big, wait until you see what's coming down the pike.

Hahahaha what?
