The movie "The Master of Fraud" is a movie that will make you feel very uncomfortable. The protagonist of the movie, Bernie, is the creator of the largest Ponzi scheme in American history, with an amount of up to 35 billion US dollars. Of course, this is just some background information. The film revolves around what happened after Bernie's Ponzi scheme was revealed, and it was Bernie who wanted to end the scam, and of course there was something wrong with the scam, but Bernie didn't think about it. If you want to abscond, you want to use some time for yourself to arrange your family and employees. This is a premise, a very important premise. If Bernie's strength was at that time, it was easy to abscond, with billions of Ten billion assets absconded, maybe what he will face will not be the last 150 years of prison and the separation of his wife and children, but Bernie didn't want to escape, but faced everything that happened calmly. psychological endurance. Many things about this movie of my bureau are actually an irreconcilable contradiction. The hoax that Bernie has built for more than ten years has been exposed countless times, but the problem is that no one has really gone to the Check, use illegal financing means to continuously expand the number of investors, if it is not driven by high interests, not too trusting, so many people will not become victims in the end, some people put their life efforts into it, when one day This investment seems to be in vain. These people are stupid and start to condemn the makers of the scam. But the problem is that at the beginning, it was individuals who did not consider the risk and made irrational investments. Shouldn’t they reflect on themselves while condemning the scammers? Just like the current illegal fund-raising, usury, and daily TV reminders, why are so many people still deceived, aren't these people dazzled by the benefits? I have never felt sorry for these people. When they handed over their money to the liar, no one forced them, and some people kept reminding them that they didn't know, I didn't expect it was not a reason at all. Who sees? To a liar? Or show it to someone who has reminded you? The same is true for this movie, a con that is so big, with just one or two people, can the Opinion Office make it? ? Wasn't it created by the connivance of many people? Would it be so if one had ever questioned this and dug into the investigation? Wouldn't there be such a person in ten years? In fact, Bernie's ideas are also a little extreme. He believes that he bears all the crimes and does not let his family participate in it. He even hides it from his family for more than ten years. He had enough money for his family, but what he didn't expect was that the one who sent him in the end was his son, the person he tried to protect. This starting point is Understandable, but Bernie forgot that he used money to raise his family in a harmless environment, and they could no longer accept anyone destroying their rich and comfortable life, even if it was a father and husband who gave them everything, So when this scam is exposed, what they can't face is that they can no longer return to their original self, and all the complaints and hatred make them unable to see who gave their once rich life. If I have such a wife, who will be rich and prosperous all my life, abandoning my husband and son just because I can no longer give her a comfortable life Why cherish, why? For more than ten years, I have endured all the stress and troubles just to give my family a good life. Even if it is wrong, the original intention is good. Should these be forgotten? Bernie's eldest son committed suicide because he couldn't bear the pressure. His wife moved to live in the place where Bernie's prison was located and never saw each other again. Relatively speaking, the second son, Andrew, at least dared to stand in the public to clarify the incident, which is better. , just relative, but as Bernie's son, it's really not worth Bernie's doing. Therefore, I feel very uncomfortable after watching this movie. The so-called right and wrong are relative terms. After encountering problems, human nature becomes more apparent, good and bad, good and evil.
