Bernie the Swindler
Bernard Madoff, the investor who admitted to running a giant $50 billion Ponzi scheme early last month, had a copper statue worth $10,000 stolen from his Palm Beach home on Dec. 22.
The statue has since been returned, with the following note attached to it:
Bernie the Swindler, Lesson: Return stolen property to rightful owners. Signed by — The Educators.
Hahaha!!! I know it’s not funny to those who have lost millions to Madoff, but this made me lol when I read it. And just remember, the SEC was asleep at the wheel the whole time, especially when you realize that someone warned them about the Ponzi scheme YEARS ago.
