Feel bad for those people and THEIR families, not the people who lived decadent billionaire lifestyles for DECADES, lying and scamming the ENTIRE time. Screw Madoff, screw his family, everyone involved and screw the regulators who declared victory and went home after his conviction rather than pursue his co-conspirators.

Because, they can make money of it, before bubble cracks. If you invest lets say 1M and you get lets say 1.2M back, after 5 invest cycles you are on your own, even if it happens to crack. Everything above that is profit, so as far as ponzi keeps going, you will still be profitable. And when it cracks, you lose only that 1M. Its no lose scenario. You can even double your investment after that, but your risk is still only that 1M. For smarter ones. Stupid ones will keep filling everything back into scheme and lose everything. But if you play it smart, you can make legally lots of money on this scam. Only loser, besides idiots, is ponzi cheme runner, but you can always say "i didnt know anything". Nobody can take your money away, because you did nothing illegal. Thats why everyone pretended they had no suscpicion. Not at all......

Word of advice: Don't invest in US economic machinery. It's too corrupted. And the thiefs own the legislature. Invest in Japan/EU instead.

Question: What life guard on what planet could earn $5000 in 3 months in the 1960 economy? Whatever the ultimate scapegoat was doing then for money had nothing to do with being a life guard.

When Madoff was in Butner, only 3 people had “approved” visitation. His wife, his Attorney & a guy named Rich Towsley from Sarasota, Fl

Even officials at the US Federal Reserve thought that Madoff was a brilliant financier. He fooled everyone -- except Harry Markopolos, who determined that Madoff's success was impossible.

But, when too many people want their money back and less people get involved in the scheme the flow of cash is ''negative'' to the "Owner" of the scheme. Well, you need to see the big picture: he promises endless returns because he promisses that the money that goes to the scheme is invested somehow but this isn't true so he doesn't have money to pay back, and when there is too much people involved the amount of money that he needs to pay is like, 100 times more than what he does have. He only can profit of this if he give up like, 2 to 3 years after the begining of the scheme but he is well known on the market and stuff so he was a double idiot by doing this cause he wouldnt disapear.

Excellent doc!!

You guys missed two GIANT points. First off, you don't even mention the efforts of Frank Casey, who provided Markopolous with the details needed to go after Madoff, and did so over several years, on his own tab. Look up the documentary "Chasing Madoff" (among other films) & you'll find him. Second, the main reason why Bernie turned himself in wasn't because of the complaints from his victims; it was because at the point of the 2008 crash, he had essentially run out of "legitimate" investors, and the bulk of the money coming in was coming from organized crime, most especially the Russian mafia. Bernie knew that if he stayed on the outside, he was a dead man. Thus, he went to prison to stay alive, and it worked beautifully, from his perspective.

You can’t steal that sum without help from SEC and treasury.
