15 years since Madoff taught us ‘bull’ isn’t always followed by ‘market’ on Wall St.
This week marked 15 years since Bernie Madoff – declared ‘the monster of Wall Street’ by a harrowing Netflix documentary on his demise – pled guilty to masterminding the largest known Ponzi scheme in history, worth an eye-watering $65bn. Formerly one of the most revered and respected figures on Wall Street, the one-time chairman of the Nasdaq stock exchange was sentenced to 150 years in federal prison, eventually dying three years to the day on April 14, next month.
