Kevin Bacon will be pleased.  He lost a fuckload of money due to him. 

George Costanza too.

Just as an aside - my mother absolutely hates Kevin Bacon, and says so every time that advert comes on.

Err, carry on. :unsure2:

Week 16 update

One death this week, noted criminal Bernie Madoff: Bernie Madoff: Disgraced financier dies in prison - BBC News

The f**k is the start of this BBC article?

Quote

Bernie Madoff, a Wall Street financier disgraced after he admitted to one of the biggest frauds in US financial history, has died in prison at age 82.

His death was announced by the Bureau of Prisons.

Mr Madoff had been serving a 150-year sentence after he pleaded guilty in 2009 to running a Ponzi scheme, which paid investors with money from new clients rather than actual profits.

It collapsed during the 2008 financial crisis.

"Bernie, up until his death, lived with guilt and remorse for his crimes," his lawyer Brandon Sample said in a statement.

"Although the crimes Bernie was convicted of have come to define who he was - he was also a father and a husband. He was soft spoken and an intellectual. Bernie was by no means perfect. But no man is."

Here's a slightly more reasonable American article: Bernie Madoff, Architect of Largest Ponzi Scheme in History, Dead at 82 - The New York Times (nytimes.com)

The stock market isn't real. None of it means anything. It's numbers on a screen. They could add a 0 to the end of every figure on it and nothing would change. Nothing would happen. You wouldn't have gained anything, you wouldn't have lost anything. 

Madoff died at 82, so he's worth 43 Base Points. He was a Solo Shot for @buddiepaul for a total of 93 points.
