How did Michael Milken, Jordan Belfort and the Tinder Swindler resurface after harming lots of people with their financial crimes? It's a Catch 22 given:
Milken served 22 months of his ten year sentence and authorities let him keep most of his grossly outsized fortune.
Belfort "was sentenced to four years in prison and served 22 months in prison.... At the end of his career as a stockbroker, he was a regular user of ‘22 different drugs."
The Tinder Swindler served two years in prison in Finland for conning three women. He ramped up his fleecing skills after his 2017 release. His larcenous and fraudulent behavior is chronicled in a Netflix film. Simon Leviev is also a motivation speaker who says he made tens of million from bitcoin and real estate.
Three former fraudsters have their sights set on crypto, defi and NFTs.
They can all sell anything. Are you buying?
Update 5-27-22: Belfort's skill at separating people from their money is a league above the rest.
Update 8-2-22: A number of FDIC insured banks ran with the crypto devils and may go under as a result. How this is remotely OK is a question one should ask David Rubenstein and his former employee Jerome Powell/
