Madoff is a political prisoner, he was railroaded by the US government. In order to steal 65 billion dollars, he would have needed to steal 6 million dollars a day, every day for 30 years. What did he do with the money? How do you spend 6 million dollars a day? Madoff only had a few million dollars in assets. What does an old man need 65 billion dollars for? IT's all a Lie. Also, American greed is a big LIE. It is communist party propaganda.

Really? Did you notice these journalists seem to believe Madoff (and raise compassion for him) but not his family, brave sons? I'm afraid Madoff could have narcissistic personality or traits. If he's a narc he lies about missing his children to present himself as a victim in order to get attention, so called 'narcissistic supply'. His 'honest moment' is rather a grab for attention. Since in prison he gets media attention, respect of inmates he is in his paradise! How awful joke (and laugh!) that Madoff would be worse off in the houses of his victims! Disgusting, disrespectful to the victims! Demonizing them while whitewashing Madoff. They quote he was a 'pathological liar' but act if it is irrelevant. Please look up Narcissistic Red Flags, Dr. Ramani. Sam Vaknin (self aware narc with 190 IQ). You may be shocked how many of them you know, see around, on tv. Use your critical thinking to discern. Much better in exposing scams is guy from the channel Calling Scammers. Enjoy:) and God bless you.

GREED IS GOOD 👍 MADOFFS PONZY 65 BILLION

Had he been a politician, he would be alive today.

Hard to believe it has been 10 years.

And this is why they never teach kids about money in school. They want you ignorant. It wasnt until late in my life what I learned what I was missing. Making your money work for you should be priority #1. Yet few people ever do it or attempt to even learn about it.

I'm fascinated by people like Bernie Madoff, not because of the big amounts or the scandal or all the more 'flashy' aspects of this story, but for that one moment when a person makes a choice and it all snowballs from there. I watched one investigation into him and it reported that in the early days, when he was just starting out and his wife was doing his bookkeeping (briefly)... he was just an ordinary guy, making an honest living. What was that moment when he felt like he needed to make that one bad deal - sell more to one person in order to pay off another, I guess, with actually nothing to sell? Because if he didn't sit at home plotting to create the mess he created (and from what I heard, he didn't really plan it; it wasn't like he was looking for a chance to start a massive Ponzi scheme), then at some point he must have got into some trouble, and decided to 'rob Peter to pay Paul,' invent some investment that never happened to get some new investors to pay off other investors when something went sour. And then it seems like he just got in deeper and deeper and eventually 'it' was controlling him, and he was not controlling it. It seems like he really did everything to keep his family in the dark, to keep his wife and sons (even when they worked for him) absolutely separate from any of his illegal activities so they would not be implicated when it all collapsed. But what was that one step, that one decision, that one moment that set him on this path? That's always the question that fascinates me most.

@RG-iw7py

Жыл бұрын

To a normal honest people it may happen, a moment in time, a mistake, even a series. But there are people with personality disorders. There's not enough knowledge about them and for most people it's very difficult or impossible to see through their web of lies, not to fall for their psycho manipulations. I have a lot of experience with narcissists (NPD) and they may be describing here a narc, maybe a covert narc: sociopath, controlling his office, controlling narrative, pathological liar, looking unassuming. His 'honest moment' could be a grab of attention. Only sensitive narcs may sometimes honestly apologize but it does not change anything, they'll keep abusing others . They feed on attention, positive or negative, it's called 'narcissistic supply'. Someone with such character doesn't change. Maybe earlier was 'helping' his 'favorite' clients and was lucky it wasn't discovered. If in the prison he's got attention, 'respect' he's in his paradise. Many narcs are highly functional and are used as politicians, presidents, etc. He served JP Morgan well. Maybe their attention, admiration of 'favorite clients' gave him attention, 'respect' he crave for and made doing more to keep it. Look at well known narc Sam Vaknin, with 190 IQ, researching this subject. He embezeld millions while working in the bank. Maybe the man who brought down Leman had narcissistic traits or personality. Maybe Elizabethh Holmes of Theranos. Look up Narcissistic Red Flags, dr Ramani, Michelle Lee Nieves (for a start). Spend few months studying it and you may be shocked how many such people you know, see on tv. They're not to be admired but ostracised, avoided. They know what is wrong or good but follow their tendencies, use others to regulate their emotions, satisfy needs. They were traumatized, broken or spoiled children but may hurt like only a sadistic adult can. The most amazing of their tactisc is 'narcissistic projection': they will accuse a victim of doing evil they do to their victims. Such strong is their ego in rejecting any of their wrong doings. They know somebody lies, cheat but will accuse their spouse, coworkers. While the victim is upset, try to reason they enjoy the show, feeling powerful, having impression they control this person and the situation, and having (false) sense of security. I used the word 'normal' people.. The're not mentally sick, it's not a disease, you can't cure it. Althought there are some therapies. Most of them won't see any need for a change because they seem to thrive while destroying their family, children, community, country. Some know who they are and are bragging about it. Because as a child they created a false persona of somone omnipotent, better than anyone else, entitled. Everything in oposition to a weak, scared child full of toxic shame. They go through life buling, destroying others. Often they run away into addiction from the pain of truth about themselves. May become a hoarder because people keep rejecting them but thinngs do not. It's impossible to help them with kindness. They are predators, pray on kind, helpful people. Someties only loosing everything they care for may give them strong enough motivation to accept they may be a source of the problem, not the world, and seek help. Therapy may help them feel safer. If Mr Madoff is a narc even now he does not have enough motivation to change anything because he's got attention (of thugs, media, yours).

From what I understand it started with his first group of clients early in his career. He had about 20 clients and about $50,000 in investments for his clients. These were legit trades. But the market crashed and he lost all of his clients money. He felt bad because he encouraged them to take these trades and he didn’t want to tell them he lost all of their money. So instead of being honest, he borrowed money from his father in law to cover the losses. Ultimately, it made him look like a genius. When everyone lost money his clients didn’t or so they thought. It led to more clients and it he became highly sought after. He build his clientele and in order to keep his reputation of a guy that always get you returns with little to no loses, he started robbing Peter to pay Paul. It just grew from there.

The financial sector urgently needs to be regulated back again. The rules which had been established after the 1929 crash and then removed by Reagan and Clinton has to be put in place again. The States stop guaranteeing savings, pensions funds, insurances long time ago. Basically between the 80s and the 90s the financial subjects have been allowed to gamble using the common people money. Unfortunately people, though the many scandals, seem to be anaesthetised. Occupy Wall Street should have been a massive protest and not left to just few dozens brave volunteers.

Please, kindly look up Narcissistic Red Flags, Dr. Ramani, Michelle Lee Nieves, Sam Vaknin (self aware narc with 190 IQ) because you may be feeding some already. Madoff shows traits of covert narc ad it's extremely difficult to recognize them, not to fall for psycho manipulations.

I agree that Madoff shouldn't be given a soapbox. Especially since this podcast adds nothing.

Madoff could play The Joker! He looks just like the character!! lol

I would go further. You cannot beat the system period. However what you can do is manipulate the system to your advantage. Now the really successful people know this and cut their cloth accordingly. Trouble is people like Bernie L Madoff don't realise this and go too far.

There were separate two companies and he called one 'his business'. One son felt used later because father would show their clients well prospering company sons worked for. He kept them away from 'his business'. Look at their actions. They brought in authorities. One son made mother choose between seeing father or grandchildren, set boundaries. Madoff could be a covert narcissist. They use gaslighting, manipulation, emotional abuse, etc. Father destroyed their life. If he is a narc he could be patological liar. He had audacity to regret pleading guilty as if he was innocent. That's typical for narcs to show themselves as victims. And shame for these journalist for whitewashing him, raising compassion for him, believing him but not family.

Finally a good use for Maddof, FERTILIZER

greed , he will meet his maker and have to face what he did to so many people. I see his wife in Greenwich ct she lives near there, she is living very well. people ask did she know.. I have no idea but she lost her son.

Boris, I don't think that was a photographer. I think that was one of his victims that lost all their life savings to Bernie.

Speaking to Madoff while in prison gives him attention which he seeks. Gives him a chance for input. He wants this ...don't give it to him. I have watched tv special and read about him give no more attention to him. We know how he did it. Give more attention to the victims stories so we know how they were duped.

So many of his investors were ordinary people who lost all their money. I knew an older woman whose husband invested in Madoff. Her husband was a very decent ordinary man, when retired did volunteer work and she worked almost for free with young children. When husband died she knew very little till the Madoff issue and at age 80 had to rely on family to survive.

He could have narcissistic personality or traits. There's nothing great about having no conscience, manipulating others. Narcs can bring down all nations down give the chance. He destroyed lives of his sons, wife, many good people. He wasn't a Robin Hood. Narcs do hate themselves, create false persona of somebody better than anyone else. Thety go through life using people, bullying, destroying. Just to have attention so now he thrives with all the attention from media, inmates, people like yourself. I hope you joked, and that was sarcasm.

Ok tell me something I didnt know already!

Several news media have assured they have interviewed Madoff..Yet none show any video or segments of such interview ????

Madoff saying that it’s less stressful at the time the interview was conducted, just goes to show how unbelievably selfish he is. One of his son’s committed suicide, the other had cancer, ruined thousands of lives & he’s less stressed in there?! Pure sociopath.

Did he just say “ I think it’s important to get in his head”. Then 2 min later say you can’t get in his head???

He could have narcissistic personality or such traits (controlling, pathological liar, no remorse: regrets not pleading 'no guilty'). His 'honest moment' could be a grab for attention. If appeared unassuming could be a 'covert narc'. Look up Dr. Ramani (for a start), 'Narcissitic Red Flags', well known, self aware narc Sam Vaknin with190 IQ who stole millions from the bank he worked for.

Only "29 million dollars?" That's not much.

I think The better way to say that would be many of his investors believed that he was doing insider trading so in reality they were OK with it being a crime as long as it made them money. But, 90% not even close. He took money from people who didn’t even have a lot of money and ruined their lives.

He reaped what he sowed. New testament, Jesus Christ
