"I know all about flipping, 30, 40 years I have been watching flippers. Everything is wonderful and then they get 10 years in jail and they flip on whoever the next highest one is or as high as you can go."

Everything is wonderful and then they get 10 years in jail.

Seriously? No acknowledgment that there is anything illegal leading to these jail sentences. Just everything is wonderful.
