Bernie Madoff's clients were only the very wealthy. Most had average to above average intelligence. They had to suspect at the very least that Madoff was investing their money dishonestly. They just wanted the high returns, no questions asked. They had the $$ and resources to check his operation out extensively but didn't. Now they want the government to cover their losses. No one has ever covered my losses or your losses b/c we're not super-wealthy. I'm surprised more people aren't implicated. Sure, Madoff was crunching all the #'s for the portfolios by himself and sending out the client statements as well for the last 20 years. Right. And no one at his firm asked or suspected? Madoff's wife and sons should be in a cell next to his, they had to know what he was doing. Agree. Bernie Madoff’s clients were only the very wealthy. Most had average to above average intelligence.

Or they thought he was investing in dishonest, or immoral, things they were happy to profit from -- or didn't want to know about it.
