Bernie Madoff no longer has to worry about getting Trump as a cellmate

https://www.cnn.com/2021/04/14/business/bernie-madoff-dead/index.html

Bernie Madoff, who created the software stock trading program that later became the NASDAQ stock exchange, has died. A very smart man, Madoff later proved the adage “a fool and his money are soon parted” by creating and running the biggest Ponzi Scheme the world has ever known. Because fools with enough money to get into Madoff’s racket really hate to be ripped off - the minimum buy-in was $100,000 and many invested millions - Mr. Madoff was rewarded for his ingenuity by being sent to federal prison for 150 years.

He died of natural causes.
