It was unclear whether he left a suicide note.

Murphy had gone on to become a partner at the firm Paulson & Co. Inc. at the time of his death, reports said.

Trouble about jumping is what if you change your mind on the way down? Oh and in keeping with the MSM and Democrats’ false narrative this shows we need to ban semiautomaric rifles

I watched a documentary about Madoff the other day.

The most memorable thing was that a prominent Wall Street guy, Harry Markopolos, tried repeatedly to warn the SEC about the impossibility that Madoff's investment returns were legit. Markopolos was an expert in forensic accounting and financial fraud.

The SEC ignored him time after time.

Then, when they were investigated after Madoff blew up, they claimed they didn't have "the resources" to follow up on the information they'd been given.

This was during the term of Bush 43.

How did he make it all these years since Madoff? Why now? Did he just watch the Richard Dreyfus show?

This headline and article are misleading in that they try to make a connection between his Madoff losses and his suicide — but Bernie Madoff’s crimes already came to the surface nearly 9 years ago. And in the meantime, this man rose to become a respected partner at another firm - so a little logic then tells us that Madoff likely had nothing to do with his suicide.

Fake news also includes badly written news.

Suicide is a stupid, selfish, evil act.

Investor Who Lost Millions to Madoff Leaps to Death in Midtown...

As opposed to Chuck Feeney, the guy who earned his way to becoming a billionaire, then gave it all away. I'd never heard of him until a friend loaned me a copy of the book "The Billionaire Who Wasn't".

Two completely opposite views on wealth.
