If you thought Dennis Kozlowski's $2.1 million Sardinia birthday party for his wife in 2000 was excessive, think of it this way: That was a one-off.

This is how Madoff rolled every day, according to Fenwick:

-- He collected vintage watches ($2,900 to $72,000) and bought wedding bands to match the color and design of each watch ($525-$1,950).

-- Madoff would call his Saville Row tailor to his London boardroom for fittings two to three times per year. Average cost of suit: $6,000.

-- Madoff traveled in a Brazilian-built Embraer Regional Jet 145 ($29 million) on which he had installed a cappuccino machine ($1,650).

-- In London, he stayed at the Lanesborough Hotel, paying up to $11,600 per night.

-- Madoff threw a barbeque party for 400 on Montauk.

-- He smoked Davidoff cigars. ($160 per box)
