I do not think they are organized , set up or funded with the resources to do what it seems they are supposed to do , successfully and Wall Street likes it that way . They are definitely understaffed and underfunded, but they had him if they had only double checked the trade tickets with DTC to see if they actually were being processed. They never bothered to. It wouldn't have taken much effort at all. But Madoff was a well-respected member of the Wall St community....he ran a successful market-making business and was chairman of NASDAQ for 3 years. It was easy to trust him as long as the documents looked real enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had thousands of reps asking to put Madoff on our platform and each time the DD decided on not allowing it. Days after the scheme was broken up the DD office was flooded with gifts and lots of praise and thanks from lots and lots of advisors.

It’s on Disney+. Cool footage Wow. I had never heard of this couple. I imagine the footage is unbelievable. From the sounds of the first few sentences, they die doing what they love.

They definitely lived how they wanted to...and died that way as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROOSTA Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 What I miss? I awoke last Monday morning to blood gushing from my nose, chest pains, severe DVT throbbing in my legs, thought was buying the farm. Had to call 911 ... Two clots in both legs, lung infection, heart pumping at 50% capacity. I'm back home after a week, another 1/2 dozen scripts. The bleeding had stopped but as soon as I get back home. Momma I'm coming home! 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you need anybody to drive it up here for you for your move…I’d probably do it and pay the tolls and gas out of my own pocket for you.

Haha LOL I traded the Trackhawk (shouldn't have, no longer in production) chasing some tail. Turned out she was a fruitcake. Bye-bye, long gone. I really hate Insurance Co. Petitioned for home health, my vitals and condition don't meet criteria. In the meantime, I hobble back and forth from kitchen to computer, bathroom and couch. Afraid to drive because I'm faint (low B/P) and still bleeding. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
