Same for the people Madoff ripped off. You people were already filthy rich and you just had to have more - that's greed at its worst. If you're now worth "just $50,000," well, tough luck - and join the club. The rest of us will never make the money you earned and squandered in just one year, so go cry on someone else's shoulder. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Steve-a-rino]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 14th 2009 2:40PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenny Dykstra To Auction Off World Series Ring]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/09/13/lenny-dykstra-to-auction-off-world-series-ring/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/09/13/lenny-dykstra-to-auction-off-world-series-ring/</guid><description><![CDATA[I hear ya brother.  I just don't have much sympathy for anyone who has made millions upon millions in their careers, and now have nothing.  I can't understand how that happens.  I am far from the brightest crayon in the box but I could guarantee that I could make a million dollars last a lifetime......and these guys had multi-millions????  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brice Dudley]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 14th 2009 4:12PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenny Dykstra To Auction Off World Series Ring]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/09/13/lenny-dykstra-to-auction-off-world-series-ring/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/09/13/lenny-dykstra-to-auction-off-world-series-ring/</guid><description><![CDATA[Steve-O:  Please understand that not all of Mr. Madoff's investors were aware of being a "Madoff Investor".  More than a few elderly widows knew only that their husbands handled the family finances and that he or, upon his death, the estate administrator continued to make investments with the same shadow investment firms of many many years. Generally, these investors were far from the six-figure income level that fill the headlines. Far from it.  It was only after Mr. Madoff's mea culpa that the true extent of his fraud became known to these individuals at the very far end of the financial food chain.  As for Mr. Dykstra's financial issues, I am sorry to hear of his difficulties but I'm more concerned with the sanity of the potential purchaser of his home.  That must be one heck of a ego to carry around at $24 million.    Just an opinion.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Linda]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 14th 2009 8:11PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenny Dykstra To Auction Off World Series Ring]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/09/13/lenny-dykstra-to-auction-off-world-series-ring/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/09/13/lenny-dykstra-to-auction-off-world-series-ring/</guid><description><![CDATA[I wish I had the money to buy his World Series ring, so I could buy it and send it to Bill Buckner.

He Ripped of all his friends and investers. While going on Hbo bragging about his cars houses and other toys. As for the phillies giving him money, Why? he didnt win the big show. Nothing special about him. Toss him in with Madoff once his true business dealings are public. Hes a Scumbag that lives of other peoples money. Hes done, nothin to see here]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[lordmbuk]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 14th 2009 3:07PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenny Dykstra To Auction Off World Series Ring]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/09/13/lenny-dykstra-to-auction-off-world-series-ring/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/09/13/lenny-dykstra-to-auction-off-world-series-ring/</guid><description><![CDATA[This was a man that played the game hard, very hard. But the bottom line, he was just a good ole' country boy trying to wheel and deal. He is not much for brains. He let a few good opportunities go to his head and then thought who he was, not where he came from and what he was...Poor advice from people around him, cashing in on him. Not to smart, got greedy, didnt know he was falling apart. Oh wait. Lenny is a white athlete...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[red white & YOU]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 14th 2009 2:35PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenny Dykstra To Auction Off World Series Ring]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/09/13/lenny-dykstra-to-auction-off-world-series-ring/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/09/13/lenny-dykstra-to-auction-off-world-series-ring/</guid><description><![CDATA[I agree.

I can live just fine in an $80,000 home. He squandered millions buying homes that can only be lived in just like  mine. I am sorry that he has even 50 thousand dollars left. Get a job and eat a GRILLED CHEESE sandwich, just like me.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[rlgrump]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 18th 2009 2:46PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenny Dykstra To Auction Off World Series Ring]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/09/13/lenny-dykstra-to-auction-off-world-series-ring/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/09/13/lenny-dykstra-to-auction-off-world-series-ring/</guid><description><![CDATA[Lenny dosent deserve to lose his possessions.  He wasnt like the big head ball players there are today.  If anything he should keep his World Series ring some players never had the chance to play in the Series nevermind get a ring.  As A-Rod says he would trade in all 3 of his MVP's just so he could win the World Series.  But Lenny won that ring fair and square in '86.  If hes gonna save himself he should go do some coaching with the Mets or Phils to save himself.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[nyyscorpio11791]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 14th 2009 2:42PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenny Dykstra To Auction Off World Series Ring]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/09/13/lenny-dykstra-to-auction-off-world-series-ring/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/09/13/lenny-dykstra-to-auction-off-world-series-ring/</guid><description><![CDATA[The ring would be nice but I don't need two of them.

I can't feel sorry for rich people who feel they have to invest it foolishly to get even more rich. Madoff is a slime-ball who was able to con rich people out of their money because they were greedy. And the media wants the working man who watches the 6 o'clock news to feel sorry for them. Poor and middle class people get conned too, but most times you don't even hear about it. Madoff didn't kill, rape, or physically hurt anyone. He got 150 years because he cheated rich people. If he cheated poor people it doesn't even make the news. Dykstra had a good thing going, but if you blow all that money, I'm not feeling sorry for you. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[johnwestrick]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 14th 2009 2:56PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenny Dykstra To Auction Off World Series Ring]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/09/13/lenny-dykstra-to-auction-off-world-series-ring/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/09/13/lenny-dykstra-to-auction-off-world-series-ring/</guid><description><![CDATA[Just another athlete with no brains. Anyone making the kind of money he made should have simply invested it in CD's and Bonds and a retirement fund and not bought houses and risky investments. What does one expect from a ball player anyway -- even those who go to college, i.e., Vick, can't get a job off the playing field.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[joyceafrancis]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 14th 2009 3:05PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenny Dykstra To Auction Off World Series Ring]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/09/13/lenny-dykstra-to-auction-off-world-series-ring/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/09/13/lenny-dykstra-to-auction-off-world-series-ring/</guid><description><![CDATA[I met the guy at a spring training game and in about 10 seconds knew I would not associate with him for any reason. He was a good ball player, that is all. Like most of the rich athletes, lottery winners etc.. He should have gotten a lawyer and an accountant and had them put him on an allowance. Very few Fran Tarkenton, Michael Jordon, or Tiger Woods types are good at sports and business.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[GT]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 14th 2009 6:35PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenny Dykstra To Auction Off World Series Ring]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/09/13/lenny-dykstra-to-auction-off-world-series-ring/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/09/13/lenny-dykstra-to-auction-off-world-series-ring/</guid><description><![CDATA[Lenny I TOLD you I would save you if you hired me to be your divorce lawyer.

The red sox came back to sweep them 4-0 to win it. The yankees have the worst come back loss in any sport history! Plus most of the world series came all the way back before you were even just a little tadpole. On the dykstra issue, he is another person who was careless with money and he is paying for it now!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[gnet116]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 14th 2009 3:38PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
