The Madoff Coat

Is it just me or does anyone else absolutely loathe seeing these classic, quilted, Euro-preppy coats on people now:



Ever since Madoff became their poster boy these things just scream "smug rich a$$hole" to me.

Yes/No?

I'm surprised he hasn't been attacked on the street....same with many of these CEOs who are the epitome of greed

I love the fact that Dick Fuld was punched full-on in the face (and knocked out, I think) while visiting the Lehman gym just after the big announcement.

So much better than a pie in the face. And I'm sure it left a mark, albeit nothing in comparison to the pain and chain of destruction his hubris dealt to everyone else.

Still, very satisfying.

yes, I forgot about Fuld. There was a similar incident in London. I figure with people losing their entire fortunes, emotions run high and it's bound to happen more often
