Sure they knew their Dad was rich as hell, but a lot of pretty savvy investors were taken.

Why do you think his sons would know how it was being done?

.

I'm not taking any joy in the man's suicide. But I'll question that one... How could you be an investment banker working for the firm running a giant ponzi scheme (run by your father) and not realize what is happening? You don't question what the investments are, that giving that return? really?

The man suicided because "he was brought to tears that no other firms would hire him" he either was a really really BAD money manager or he was dirty.

either way, he was so miserible over not manitaining his rich live that he opted out. Money was THAT much more important to him than his own son
