That's a woman-killer house.
Why would anyone lament the breaking up of the family he obviously didn't care about? Take him food? Why weren't they helping his wife move out?
That's just stupid stupid stupid. If it looks too good to be true, it IS!

??? It sounds like he cared about them a great deal!

On that we can agree.
Yet I'm torn on this issue: The article says that one guy lost 5 million dollars. I don't know whether I should be sad that he lost 5 million dollars or jealous that he had an extra 5 million dollars of disposable income just laying around to be invested.

Anything over 3000 sq ft.

Yeah, he cared so much he cheated everyone around him.

I don't think a ponzi scheme counts as an investment. I think it counts as greed compounded by stupidity.

After building that did he not have enough money to do any landscaping?

Just because he cheated everyone else around him doesn't mean he didn't care for his family.

The guy probably didn't know it was a ponzi scheme. He probably thought it was a legitimate investment.

The unfinished house will never sell at his asking price of $3Mil.
If they drop it closer to the average $300k price of the surrounding homes it has a much better chance.
What an idiot, building a multi million dollar home in an average subdivision...

How sad.
