I don't know. 80% returns? Really? She was able to get 80% returns? GUARANTEED? This lady kind of sounds like a potential Madoff who got caught early. Yes, she may be totally innocent. That is one of many possibilities. Having mentioned that... man... 80%? guaranteed? Trading Futures? Maybe the punishment is a bit harsh, but it really does seem she was not totally on the up and up. And secondly, what kind of a person…
However I have to say that claiming 80% returns does not make her a potential Bernie Madoff. Since he promised more reasonable rates of return and kept it going for far longer. Therefore on the surface his ponzi scheme seemed much more legitimate than the 80% return of hers.
Now the other thing that got me in the article was using animal placenta as a beauty treatment. I know people are injecting themselves with toxins, so I guess it shouldn't come as that much of a surprise.
