Bernie Madoff confessed his Ponzi scheme on December 10, 2008. This Thursday, November 21, 2013, the Wall Street Journal is running my column, Five Years of Bernie.
Mark your calendars.
In the article, I list several lessons from Madoff’s fraud. Hopefully, they’ll be useful to investors and financial advisers alike. And with a little help from a private investigator, I offer a hypothesis about where the next financial scam is likely to hit.
Want a hint?
A 1969 Francis Bacon triptych just sold for $142.4 million. That’s all I’m willing to say until my column runs.
The New York Times describes my novels as “money porn,” “a red-hot franchise,” and “glittery thrillers about fiscal malfeasance.” Through fiction I explore the dark side of money and the motivations of those who have it, want more, and will steamroll anybody who gets in their way.
I love the picture you posted. It was so nice of you to give Bernie something to read, seeing as how he now has so much free time on his hands.
