Bernie Madoff practically had his own harem, and former mistresses were often paid off—to the tune of $250,000 in one case—to keep quiet, the New York Post reports in a look at the latest Madoff book. “He started having affairs all over the place,” one insider tells Jerry Oppenheimer in Madoff With the Money. A former employee recalls, “They were gorgeous. They were blond. They were young. They were like baby Ruths—the same type as Ruth, with the same hair color and eye color.”
