Just like everyone else....I read about Bernie Madoff defrauding thousands of investors in every newspaper last year and how he was convicted of operating a Ponzi scheme that has been called the largest investor fraud ever committed by a single person. It didn't connect to me that his son was my classmate in high school until read the article in Vanity-Fair (Did The Mandoff Son Know?) We didn't know him as Andrew but as Andy.
What do I remember of about him? He was arrogant, thought he knew everything, and wasn't a nice guy. I knew he had money then...but I didn't know how much. He had one of our most beautiful classmate as his girlfriend...(I am sure because of his money) He wasn't friendly to me...He worked for the Beacon (the school newpapers) He would put his friends on their. He would never talk me because he thought he was better than me. He saw the injustice of what other kids did to me and stood by and did nothing. I wanted to kill myself because the emotional pain they put me through. He had a sense of entitlement because of his father. I am sure he never worked a day in his life...everything was given to him.
