Le$$ons from the Great Cheaters

The two great cheats that cheat great together.
The Cheater Says: On a side note, Digital Sky Technologies, a Russian firm, also invested $50 million. Russian investment in US technology? No reason to fear, right Firefox? No, not that one, the one that makes me feel old.
The Cheater Says: Just because you automatically check your pockets when someone says “I have the car keys of the murderer,” doesn’t mean you killed anyone. Great Cheaters know, when all you do is “wrong,” it’s best to overreact to every vague claim of wrongdoing.
The Cheater’s motto: “Be prepared (to deny everything)”.
p.s. An “ecosystem” of corruption? Sounds like “evolution” talk, which – as anyone who exploits ignorance & fear for financial gain knows – is non$ense.

Investors speculate on claims against Bernie Madoff’s co-conspirators
The Cheater Says: So, let me get this straight: Financial institutions are placing bets on the outcome of legal claims… against financial institutions who placed bets with a man who convinced them he was legally placing bets… in a fund that was basically a series of bets spread across financial institutions… who had placed bets… on the old lady who swallowed a spider to catch the fly?
In any event, sounds like a sure fire way to part some money from some fools then get a sweet severance and a bailout when it all comes crashing down. Kudo$!
Bernie Madoff was arrested two years ago today.
The Cheater Says: Hold tight, everyone. The trustee seeking money only has until midnight tonight to file lawsuits. (Sure, he’s already hit a bunch of banks, but they’ll just get their political and judicial buddies to retroactively change the filing date). Almost there!
The Fed Gave The Financial Industry $3.3 Trillion
The Cheater Says: Um, yeah. Who else is going to keep that money safe from investors, employees, creditors, and taxpayers? Duh.
The Cheater Says: Hey Mulder & Scully, if you’re looking for your bribe money, we gave it to the Congresspeople. They said they’d deliver your cut. Talk to them. Now scoot, we’ve got 2 and 20 to “earn.”
