This all came crashing down in December of 2008, as the fraudulent businessman was arrested and subsequently charged to face over 100 years in prison, a sentence that he served up until his death last month. But here is the thing, Bernie's fraud, was… not…that… bad… In fact there is arguably more damaging behaviors taking place in the markets day in and day out today by some of the most revered businessmen in the world.
