Bernie Madoff, Architect of Largest Ponzi Scheme in History, Is Dead at 82

Largest discovered Ponzi scheme.

I wonder when bitco... I mean, what will be the next one.

I'm curious if anyone who knows about accounting/etc - could he have skirted trouble by going deeper on "illegal" activity? Money laundering maybe, or partnering with arms dealers or the like?

He had connections with the top 3%, that "access" was probably worth a good fortune alone.

I'm sure he'd have been found out eventually, for other crimes that "pro-longed" his fund, but I'm just curious what a better criminal mastermind could've done in his shoes lol.

The good old crash of 2008, the only one who went to prison is the one who swindled the rich. All those who stole from normal people got richer and free.

Bernie Madoff was chairman of the federal reserve?

I was going to say, there's thin line between illegal ponzi schemes, and other, schemes.
