Why would Madoff have STARTED OUT with a Ponzi scheme? There was no reason for it. No, I think he had a big name a big fund and a big image/ego, and he made a few bad bets and wiped himself out. Probably this decade sometime.

It would not surprise me if you're right. He certainly doesn't look like a con man.
