New York Magazine's Look At A Wall Street Sociopath: Bernie Madoff
Lack of empathy, no remorse, manipulation, predatory behavior, rewriting the facts, self-aggrandizing, megalomaniac, portraying himself as the victim, willing to do anything to anyone for personal gain........ "F*ck my victims" as he is cited as saying in the article.
What else can you say? Madoff is most certainly a predatory sociopath. Remember, Madoff at one time was the chairman of Nasdaq. How many other chairmen and executives on Wall Street parallel Madoff? I would guess plenty. Wall Street is like a drug for dysfunctional personalities - sociopathic personality disorder, borderline personality disorder, narcissistic personality disorder, etc. I might even surmise a few of these former Wall Street clowns who have become media darlings could easily fit this profile. Nothing like being paid to be a psycho.
