Bernie Madoff Dead In Prison At 82: Looking Back At His Ponzi Scheme Impact | NBC News
SAD day for MILLIONS of people….humans?????????????????
Good riddance honestly I am shocked that his victims aren’t celebrating in a big way.
U see
Seeds
His wife lost her entire family she was the book keeper….its called karma
Why would you invest your whole life savings? WHY? Also many people suspected, they just didn't care.
This is the reason i keep my money that i earn. I would never hand it over…Sure it don't make money but it doesn't disappear either….
All bs ,,,,,. Rich take from the poor,,, it's been like this for 1000s of years, won't end now ,,,
Is one man alone capable of stealing as much as $50 billion USD without anyone else's help?
Jordan Prince Hamzah bin Al-Hussein, son of Jordan Where is Prince Hamzah bin Al-Hussein
Sorry Bernie, you got caught and didn't grease the right palms. Rich people being ripped off isn't genocide its out greeding the greedy, that's a no no
"Scheiße schwimmt oben!" (german saying)
The fact his son's died the way they did .are to me suspicious
“ Never underestimate another mans greedâ€ÂÂ
Do you think he committed suicide or was suicided?
I wouldn't never turned my father in
Stole 50 billion? What a legend
Sorry, the biggest Ponzi scheme is the Federal Reserve.
The movie "Wizard of Lies" with Robert De Niro as Madoff is well worth watching. The book is even better.
O no I no MO no I noby 6t ft t ft ft ft ft deer 4 we r uhhbb NJ,
He. Won't. Be. Missed.
And this is why I don't trust anyone to handle my wealth.
Seriously, if you don't know what you're doing, it's not that hard to just look up an index fund and buy up every stock on the list and then keep that list updated.
You don't need all these unnecessary third parties. You do need a broker but he's insured up to 500k in the US. Use multiple brokers if you have to.
Hey let's bring up highly irrelevant to get rid of someone because he hurt us he is not the only one the comment below is right many others played their part what they wont tell you how they paid off the officials
Just a con.
How could the sons, who "ran the trading business" for a business that made no legit trades, not know?
He’s a greedy piece of crap he had so much money he couldn’t even spend it
All in his life time. He never gave any money to the poor he never help the community not thing.
His family is his own victim. He killed his son in embarrassment
Pretty funny… Madoff stole BILLIONS… and was given due process and jailed… George Floyd was killed on the street for having and passing a fake $20… It makes me laugh..ha ha ha…
Bernie had nothing on Congress, the biggest Ponzi scheme ever.
Bernie MadeOff with billions
Dhamn, I was just watching about him on HLN last Monday
did that camera actually push him back for a better photo lmao 1:16
The Mardoff karma got them from stealing billions of dollars.
Remember the most rich is the most scammers they r not saints
Good ridends!
This is the major problem, instead securing a life profiting job and a reliable source of income
JESUS CHRIST IS COMING VERY SOON!!!!
BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST AND REPENT FROM YOUR SINSðŸ™ÂÂ🙠NO TIME LEFT!!!
Big thief dead I don't have any feeling towards him , he was criminal , his kids dried this is greedy shameful person, he is in he'll know.
Death of a Wall Street
Hustle
ðŸÂÂâ€ÂðŸÂÂÂÂ
No love lost. He ruined so many lives. If there is an after life, I hope he suffers.
How many years not enough
Hard time without glasses two eyes
Correction.. The United States Of America is the biggest Ponzi scheme in history; simply start with the banks creating money out of thin air, and End with a 27 trillion national debt, which was never intended to be played off.
