You're never to young to be swindled by Bernard Madoff! The Palm Beach Post reports that the $50 billion-Ponzi scheme-man's estate was toilet-papered. The PB Post found out because the alleged perpetrators called them:
Some teenage boys called The Palm Beach Post newsroom Sunday evening to take credit for the prank - one they said was sanctioned by their parents. They said they were acting in retaliation after they lost their trust funds to the accused swindler.This prank probably makes the stomachs of Madoff's Upper East Side neighbors churn, as some have concerns about the media circus (Matt Lauer hates it!) as well as angry investor retaliation on their building.A woman got on the phone to confirm their story, but no one would give their names.
By the time Palm Beach police arrived at the home Monday morning, the toilet paper was gone and the housekeeper chose not to make a police report, police spokeswoman Janet Kinsella said Monday morning.
Last month, a statue was stolen from Madoff's Palm Beach estate, only to be found with a note suggesting Madoff "return stolen property to rightful owners."




These teen lost their trust funds and all they could manage was toilet papering the house? If I lost my trust fund, I'd be throwing bricks through the windows or something.
Live well. It is the greatest revenge.
Oh wait! i forgot, you lost your trust fund!
haha oops, sorry.
TP not news.
Molotov's, now we're talking.
Are we suppose to care that a few twits will have to hold down real jobs because their trust funds were snatched away? Welcome to the real world, kids.
Hopefully some of these teens are the same ones profiled on MTV's "My Super Sweet Sixteen." Reality can be a real kick in the poon.
"They said they were acting in retaliation after they lost their trust funds to the accused swindler."
that's rich. er, maybe that's not the word i'm looking for.
used toilet paper would have been better
They lost their trust funds? Finally, a positive story from all this Bernie Madoff nonsense.
Many of these victims are just idiots. First, you never entrust your entire portfolio to one investment. Second, you invest unemotionally. Third, you fucking grow up.
"They said they were acting in retaliation after they lost their trust funds to the accused swindler."
That can't be good for the Williamsberg RE market!
