18. I believe the fiance of the surviving son wrote a book. She gets to profit from it. |

I swear - as soon as a sociopath gets their comeuppance they turn into the walking wounded who expect sympathy.

6. I know. Are we supposed to feel SORRY for them? |
|
Well, maybe the only one I feel sorry for is the one who succeeded at suicide.
The older ones...no.
They somehow managed to NOT take enough Ambien to do themselves in.

11. I still haven't decided for sure |
|
whether the son on TV is a stinking weasel or not.
I mean, he DID turn his father in. I have to hand him that.
His brother who committed suicide...I believe it must have been a shock to him.
But Bernie himself? Worthless piece of shit.
Ruth? Clueless, pathetic liar.
There's a place in Hell for people like them. If not, there should be.

BS, they haven't walked down a street in decades. They get chauffeured in a limo whenever they hit the street.

16. Madoff made a lot of 99%ers out of 1%ers through his Ponzi scheme |
|
He was more effective than any OWS group at turning rich people into poor people.

are the bankers and the legislators that allowed this shit by getting rid such laws such as Glass-Steagall.
Mrs. Bern Madoff came off as rather a dumb (and never motivated with all that money to know how to become smart) cluck.
Her son is nothing short of fucked, and I actually felt that he was sincere. He may just have to take his medicine (sins of the father, and choosing not to stand up to him until he was caught up himself).
I believe that people who fuck up like this aren't criminals, they are just dumb fucks.
Anyone out there besides THEM ever been a dumb fuck about something fairly major in life? That's why I can't cluck my tongue and simple write them off as, "criminals"...

25. Madoff posted "profits" every quarter for 12 years. But his brilliant-investor son |
|
didn't notice that anything was wrong.
Heh . . . uh . . . okay . . . sure.
