    “He said … ‘If I just had another two months, I could get the money back,’” Mitchell told NBC News.

    So the CEO was a gambling addict on top of being a clear idiot. How the fuck do these people fail their way into these positions and not get filtered out along the way?

      This was a sad read. A gambling addict would have at least had a chance to make money. This guy just kept throwing money away other peoples money and never saw any returns.

      I can’t believe someone at the bank didn’t question the strange wire transfers. Or that the guy who told him he was being scammed didn’t immediately reach out to the authorities.

      Question: Wouldn’t the FDIC reimburse most of these people’s money?
