Have pity on Ruth Madoff. No, seriously.

Full story: CNN Money

Have some pity on Ruth Madoff. Really. I'm serious. Her fate and her wealth are on my mind because of the auction, scheduled for today , at which the U.S. Marshals Service is slated to sell off hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth of property seized from her and her husband, the infamous Bernie.

Of course.
Because all men are jerks and all women are victims.
Plus I'm sure she had no knowledge and no involvement in any of Bernie's schemes.

Give me a break.

What is being jewish have to do with whether Ruth should get any pity?

I agree though, she should get squat and be lucky to live out a life with nothing like the victims of her husband.

On one hand, "Jewish American Princess" is just an idiomatic phrase, particular apt here since the Madoff's are Jewish. On the other hand, it is historically accurate to describe Jews as persecuted, i.e., victims. In this case, however, my own opinion is that she knew what her husband was doing.

So she's been "reduced" to a mere $2.5 million??? AT her age she could live comfortably the rest of her life on a tenth of that without doing a days work.!!!

BTW - i don't for a minute think her hub is in prison. No way to verify he is and i bet he's loafing in israel right now. The rich and powerful commit the biggest crimes and always get away with it.

Poor little Ruth "The Gentiles are Responsible for this" Madoff. She should be sitting in prison right along with her rotten husband.

This must have been one of the worst articles I have ever read.

I lost a day and a half last week.
It cost me
at least $180.00.

My insurance costs me $435 per month.
But I have insurance and
don't want it
"free".

Feel bad for me?

Screw them!

Even when they're "broke" after being billionares,
their worst day is still pretty warm & fluffy.

I find it hard to believe she was unaware any more than the wife of a mob boss would be. She wasn't charged with any crime but she didn't get to keep all the stolen goods. What is unfair about that? If anything she was allowed to keep too much of the ill gotten gains.

Not Touchy at all. I hate the bitch too and hope she goes to hell. Was just asking a question because I was trying to figure out what being jewish had to do with the evil this man did and whether she should get any pity which I think not.

Would you like to answer the question now or just evade it?
