Long-time readers of this site know that I like to recommend books and movies every now and then. In this spirit, I highly recommend the movie "Chasing Madoff." It is the story of Harry Markopolous who spent 10 years trying to convince anyone who would listen that Bernie Madoff was running the largest Ponzi scheme in history.
It is a frustrating story in that Markopolous' warnings fell on so many deaf ears for many years. The SEC, the supposed "guardians" of the American financial system failed miserably.
But, it is a good story in that Markopolous was eventually vindicated. His story of persistence and the desire to do right is inspiring.
This movie is based on Markopolous' book, which was reviewed earlier on this site and is also highly recommended.
