Some investors did see that Madoff's returns weren't real. But he was an insider at a stock exchange and they figured he was using his position for insider trading. In other words they sensed he was cheating but they thought he was stealing for them not stealing from them. So they were willing to turn a blind eye as long as they got the good returns.

@vissitorsteve4 жыл бұрын
What they didn't mentioned was that Madoff's scam also played on a stronger human characteristic than greed, as well as Malcom says, 'trust'. From what I've heard and read, he was just very good at appealing to his clients by making his 'investment' scheme so exclusive that he actually refused enough people so that if you were really really wealthy and were not accepted by Madoff, it was like being denied a membership into some exclusive country club. People were tripping over themselves to get in because they were used to their money buying everything...

Not trust. It was greed and fear of missing out like Jonny Blaze commented. In order to establish trust you need to know them on a personal level. Some may have trusted him, but most did not trust him. Rather, many may have trusted people that did get returns on their investments. They were greedy and impulsive.
@Bryan_Lion3 жыл бұрын
In prison, Madoff said he carried greedy people for 20 years. Sounds like one of those things where nobody was bitching when times were good and they were rich but when shit hit the fan in 2008, he felt like he didn’t have to show remorse because people were throwing money at him. He said he wish he was caught earlier but he was too good

There was a Frontline documentary on Madoff and one of the people they interviewed was one of the first people who worked for Madoff as a salesman. The person talked about receiving his first check from Madoff for some obscene amount of money and he and his wife were sitting at the kitchen table trying to figure out what to do with it. What's interesting is that he decided that it was a "gift from God" (that's the exact quote) and that they were simply blessed to have it, which I think is one of the ways that explains why so many people were willing to either not look too deeply into Madoff or just not bother.

Exactly. Bernie "hand picked" the people he would let invest with him. His services weren't open to just anyone. Bernie also "tricked" the FTC and the people who were supposed to be watchdog groups over him. Much like how Enron was able to pull off their scam, the accusation against them of a scam of such a grand scale, that it was brushed off as conspiracy theory. Nobody thought Bernie, who was the chairman of the NASDAQ once, was orchestrating a $65 BILLION dollar ponzi.

Correct! It was exclusively Jewish. He didn't mention the Jewish component once. According to the NYT that particular detail was key to understanding the Madoff Ponzi scheme.

He makes it sound like if it were not for the 2008 financial crisis Madoff would still be in business.

The members who lost the least amount had no problem saying it was a scam and they were fooled. Basically, the more you are into it, the harder it is to admit you were fooled.

That's actually a very silly thing to say, although of course it's going to get a lot of likes, since it sounds radical and cool. It's silly because the government is not an investment firm. It collects taxes not as ostensible investments, but to fund myriad state functions, from infrastructure to regulatory bodies to law enforcement to the military to government itself. One can and one does debate and criticise much of that expenditure, including government waste; those discussions are known as politics. It has nothing to do with a Ponzi scheme to defraud would-be investors.

The problem is I dont really see any area of contention to debate. Im not sure of Malcolm Gladwell's individual political bent, but even if he was an Indentitarian Left-winger, that's more personal than what he writes about, which seems to be more general personal economic observations. Like im sure Jordan Peterson has ideas on America's Foreign Policy in the Middle East but that's not his area of expertise, so a debate with like Noam Chomsky really wouldn't be interesting, even though both are smart. Even if Jordan Peterson disagreed with Chomsky (which I doubt he would cause JP is actually fairly Left Wing in a true traditional sense and Chomsky is literally the only true Left Winger calling the Russia probe nonsense).
@DIVISIONINCISION4 жыл бұрын
I see it like this: Gladwell has the concepts and principles of practicality and logic down, but he's no match for Peterson's background in Psychology and understanding of the human psyche. As it pertains to application of ideas, I'd maybe give Gladwell the edge but over everything else including motivation and analysis, it's all Peterson. They would agree on many things, except perhaps social constructs and politics. I see Gladwell as a centrist, possibly progressive while Peterson is socially conservative and perhaps a Libertarian.

When Gladwell talks about trusting genes beating paranoid genes every time, he's talking about social contracts that work in limited environments in certain eras. That really does create an optimal society when it works and my succcessful parents raised me to think like that in middle America, but then when I became a world traveller I realized that, rightly or wrongly, people all over the world stereotype Americans as total idiots that "need to be taught a lesson" for being open and trusting. Even in America, real pro businessmen and financiers and politicians and sociopaths (if there's a difference) whose first priority is personal gain literally "capitalize" on our misguided confidence: "Hey, I trust you because you're trustworthy, so it has to work both ways, right?" P.S. In light of recent events, I should have said they literally "Capitolize" on our misguided confidence.

One frustrating aspect of this mess was the whistleblower who reported these trades as a statistical impossibility several times to the SEC and other agencies falling on deaf ears until Madoff turned himself in.
@Matt-cr4vv Жыл бұрын
Them not taking the guy seriously isn’t actually what I find crazy. The guy is really abrasive and arrogant. While he was clearly right from the beginning, if you ever spend some time watching him speak on it you can see why an inept regulator may not have taken him as seriously as they should have in hindsight. He submitted fraud tips with work he felt provided the scam, that I’d taken serious would have likely found it years before he turned it in. But I think people also need to remember various competitors had been filing complaints and accusations against Madoff for years and he was investigated many times although clearly never competently. I believe there are SEC investigations of his fund going as far back as 1992. One also needs to look in context. Bernie had stuck to a strategy of being very secretive in trades and strategy to cover this scheme for years. It wasn’t like he just did this out of the blue one day when he was being investigated. He handled his business that way from the beginning. So when he responded in that fashion during investigations and the like it didn’t raise flags for them because it wasn’t anything outside of his normal. He was also well connected in the industry, both with other managers as well as politically. He was the head of NASDAQ for three terms. It is unfortunately natural that they would lean to taking Madoffs word considering his status and tenure over the accusation of a random analyst from a competing firm. It was the word of an icon of the industry versus that of an analyst if a competitor who stood to financially and career wise benefit if he brought Madoff down. Sure that’s a poor way to look at it but it’s also realistic in the world we live. One also has to consider that he never produced wild returns to really raise the eyes of regulators. He was never doubted because he produced large returns, he was noticed because he was too consistent. During his time managing money he had something like 12 or less months where he reported a loss. And when he did report losses they were never big. His returns were always in line with and at times under the returns that the S&P produced - the appeal of investing with him was the exclusivity and status of him accepting you into his fund mixed with its consistent steadiness in its moderate returns. I spew all of the above to say that while we now see in hindsight that they should’ve listened to the whistleblower. We see that he was correct in his accusation. But there are also pretty realistic reasons why they overlooked the guy. And even with overlooking him it’s not like Madoff didn’t get their attention. Over a 16 year time period his firm was investigated eight times. The issue that is frustrating is more how they investigated so many times and never found anhthing. The truly pervasive issue is that the SEC has no chance to successfully hold hedge funds accountable. First one has to remember is a civil agency. They don’t charge crimes, they simply issue civil fines. They are able to go after a license but rarely do. Civil fines don’t do anything to curtail schemes. Take an example of Steven Cohens previous hedge fund. The sec got the fund to plead guilty to insider trading. They instituted the largest fine ever of $1.8B and Cohen couldn’t manage outside money for 2 years. That’s a huge punishment as far as the SEC goes. What happened after? He opened a new fund when his ban ended that now employs double the people his old fund did and manages over $8B more in assets than the old one did. That’s what happened in a case where they actually got a big “win”. An agency that imposed fines can’t handle an industry that makes so much money breaking their rules that even a gigantic fine like that one is simply a cost of doing business in comparison to the the profits they earn over the long term. The other issue with agencies like these is that they’re understaffed to enforce the industry to begin with and they have no chance to retain the brightest staff to keep up. They keep some mission motivated staff around but the disparity in pay that someone can earn going to one of the firms they regulate over staying with the SEC is simply immense. The max pay you can earn in the SEC is around $280K. That’s a nice salary. But you also live in DC which is expensive as hell. You work all the time. You’re always short staffed. Or you can go work for one of the firms,l and easily make 7 figures or more. The only people they can retain are the passionate. The majority leave once they are recruited Jj private industry. And when that’s the playing field you’ll never be able to keep up. It’s just the sad reality of government regulation.

Madoff isn't all that surprising to me. What I find surprising is that he was publicly busted and didn't just end up becoming the next Goldman Sachs. The reason it's not surprising to me is because several years ago I listened to an audio course from The Teaching Company or maybe the Great Courses series (so taught by an actual professor at a real university) called 'Explaining Social Deviance.' It was about the research done on how different societies define deviant behavior, and how they deal with that deviant behavior. They studied many different societies all over the world in different contexts. When they went to study the upper class and wealthy, they discovered that criminal activity (white collar crime specifically) was so tremendously common that it could not even be called deviant. It was accepted. It was normal. It was expected. White collar crime is punished so rarely, and punished so lightly, that it has simply become how the upper class functions. Even though white collar crime does more economic damage and even kills more people every year than street crime does, our society can't be bothered to care about it. Because Madoff was dealing with upper class investors, they would expect him to be doing something shady. As far as they are concerned, that is how the world operates. By scamming, hurting people, and 'getting one over' on others. They would have been more surprised if it was revealed that he wasn't defrauding anyone.
