    If someone ripped me off like that I wouldn't leave it up to the justice system to punist him. Before I'd kill myself (which I wouldn't since I don't love money that much) I'd make him pay in a permanent kind of way.

    One of the people he ripped has to grow some balls and pump a couple sluggs into his spine. Bernie wouldn't be enjoying his time in jail for sure. Problem is most his investors are panzies with peas for balls.

  7. As they should be.

    Money is what remains from your work. Stealing your money is stealing your time. Your efforts.

    I don't take kindly to it. No sensible person does. I'm sure there must be a few Madoff victims that would be glad to send him to his eternal ASAP.

  8. A word to the filthy rich. Worry more about keeping what you are lucky enough to have , and less about adding to it so you can wallow in yet more vulgar luxury.

  10. Something for me isn't adding up in the way Madoff is behaving.

    Allegedly he admitted that he defrauded his clients. Presumably his sons turned him in.

    But - he is trying to stay out on bail (that he gets to make bail while recent stories of smaller frauds land the accused in jail without bail is a double standard of justice to begin with. Especially since the bail money may have been originally stolen from clients).

    If he admits he's guilty, why make bail - why have a lawyer start defending him at all? He confessed - save the taxpayer some money and drive to Rikers.

    So while he may have told the FBI agents he fully expects to go to jail - and he supposedly confessed to his guilt - he is fighting it already.
