Madoff Victims May Have to Return Profits, Principal (Update1)
http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=a3kFmYaaw5sY&refer=home
“Dec. 23 (Bloomberg) — Like some of Bernard Madoff’s clients, a Florida restaurant owner was lucky enough to withdraw part of his investment before the money manager allegedly confessed to a $50 billion Ponzi scheme. Now he’s worried he might be asked to give it back.”
“The 53-year-old investor, who asked not to be identified to protect his stake, took out about $600,000 this year from his $1.5 million account, using some of it to pay down a mortgage. He and other Madoff clients who withdrew funds as long as six years ago may be sued on behalf of other victims to return profits and even principal, securities and bankruptcy lawyers say.”
Boy that’s going to go over great at the dinner table this Holiday Season, huh!
“A so-called clawback of paid-out funds in the Madoff liquidation could result in lawsuits against investors such as charities, hedge funds and individuals who redeemed profits and took out principal.”
Better learn to “Clinch Up” those Ass cheeks, boy that’s gonna hurt.
I will say one thing you better enjoy the rest of this year because 2009 is going to a MoFo….
Oh and Happy Holiday’s Asshats!

“What. I’m very glad we’ve been able to find a way to keep things civil between us this holiday season (thanks for that) and I look forward to continued civilized and informative discussions in 2009.”
Well Biff I better withdraw the rest of my money from Madoff because the world is coming to a end. ; ^ }. Be well and be safe.
