I like to think of Bernie being some bad man’s girlfriend.

I don’t know why people assume Madoff is a total wimp. It takes balls to committ that much fraud. The idea of this guy becoming some sort of jailhouse boss is inherently amusing. He starting to sound like a Batman villain. R. Allen Stanford (another rich crook) wasn’t so luck and got his ass beat the first day. He probably fought somebody younger than 60 though.
