You can still make millions off people you screw over, run a world class company into the ground, land with a $50 million golden parachute while your peons file bankruptcy, have multiple 10 digit bank accounts, an IQ of 160, and become a industry specialist making $50000/hr training fortune 500 companies how to do the same thing you did and still be an idiot.
Why? Because it’s happening.
Call it karma, fate, judgement, yin yang or whatever you like, but eventually what goes around comes around in this life or the next, or worse, your kids.
Not realizing all actions have a consequence makes you an idiot in my book. Not caring is even worse.[/quote]
Other than taxpayers, who are truly getting screwed (they didn’t ask to participate in the first place), I’m not sure who else is getting “screwed” when these firms go belly-up. The investors should all understand the risks. So long as fraud is not being committed there are no investment victims; just willing participants who lost. Likewise with the employees. I just don’t see the “screwing” going on other than at the taxpayer level.
