I am sure you have all heard of those pyramids. The uncle who comes to family get togethers and tries to push folks to buy his products so that they in turn can go to their friends and get them to buy those products so they in turn..... you get the picture.
Now imagine doing that as if it was an investment company. Come invest millions with the promise of super high returns, get more people to join, etc.
Stakes are high!
Well, this is just what Bernard Madoff did! A scam just like the pyramids scam except for investors. Now he's caught and the pyramid is collapse. The only difference is we are talking billions of dollars.
That is just plane wrong! Many Jewish companies and charity organizations joined this investment firm thinking it was legit, perhaps because the guy is Jewish. Sadly, they lost money in the millions.
All I can say is, if you've done something out of greed, perhaps now is the time to rethink that investment, rethink that choice, rethink your course of action. The golden calf is being taken to the slaughter house.
