huge amounts of cash - not regular salary - were given to both sons, his brother and everyones wives as well. Bernie dd a great job at stashing the money.
you can belive he was really upset at missing his Dad who he (and you) says he wants nothing to do with, and I can believe it was because the ongoing investigations- and his sad and immoral chocie to participate in the profit (and that part is indisputable) and coverup (dad knew he was going to be caught beforehand, and getting his sons to be whistleblowers was a ploy, imho). Mark complely pulled out of the Ponzi scheme eight years before it exploded, why do that when he was doing so well? Him and his brither wanted to keep 30 million on loans from Madoff. So yeah, they;d have loved to keep the blood money- so Im still thinking selfish applies, in quite a few ways.
