What a despicable human being...

Nice, learning all the bad stuff that comes out of my country (Brazil). Congrats

Who the hell cares about his failing health. He ruined several lives so he needs to rot in prison

Yeah, I still remember the $5000 shower curtain.

I lost my job at WorldCom because of this asshole, as did a lots of my friends and colleagues. He gambled it all away. Has he got anything to say to all the people whose pension funds he busted.

Now do Elon
