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]

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.

[@ihavenoson3384]

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.

[@FelixgreenYT]

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.

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.

set bail and he paid it but was still set in prison That’s rude
