When people made money off of the sub-prime mortgages, they didn't think that they would be making money off of someone else's suffering when the market turned and rates went up. They didn't think about any of it because they didn't care enough to think what could happen to other people. Not very many people do when it comes to making money. We see it all the time when things go wrong and other people pay, but the ones that made the money are usually pretty happy and untouched, feeling no guilt at all. Then comes someone that pulls off what Madoff did. He was all smiles, according to the reports, pretended to be "friends" of a lot of the people he ripped off. Maybe he was a good actor? Maybe he had no conscience at all? Maybe, just maybe, he just didn't care enough to ask what would happen to other people if he did this.
