Bernie

No, not that one.

Tomorrow, or more accurately, today, is Bernie Madoff's sentencing. I'll tell you, reading this article makes me want some lenient sentencing.

wtf

These assholes are saying that their losses are not the difference between what they invested and what they withdrew. No, they are saying that their loss was the bogus number that they were given even though none of those trades/transactions ever happened. So, say I invested 10 million and over the course of ten years, ol' bernie told me my money had increased in value up to 50 million. Over the course of those ten years, I withdrew a total of 7 million dollars. My true loss is 3 million dollars plus inflation. These people are saying, no their loss is the 50 million.

This to my mind is more greedy and dispicible than whatever bernie did.
