One house down, how many more will go????

So they finally seized Madoff's Palm Beach house!  I appreciate what the repo means to the victims he stole from, but I am at the moment enjoying envisioning Ruth Madoff having to wash her own clothes and cook her own meals.  Oh yeah, she wrote that cookbook so maybe she can get around the kitchen but can she do the dishes???  That she has still has a 7 million dollar roof over her head with a staff oh who knows how many infuriates me.  I have my doubts that she will ever see a jail cell but it would be sweet if she had to live in a 2 room apt in Chinatown with her 2 sons! Here's a YahooNews piece about it.

Why Bernie Sucks

OK so we all know why Bernie sucks, but why Bernie sucks for me personally... 

My father, a retired police officer, who instilled in his four daughters a sense of family first,  a fierce work ethic and a very practical regard for spending and saving lost his entire life savings to Bernie Madoff.  He worked nights and weekends and did without so he and my mother could spend their golden years, modestly but with minimal financial concerns.  He did everything right and lost it all.
