Bernie Madoff, 71, has been sentenced to 150 years -- the maximum prison time sought by government prosecutors.

To add insult to rest-of-your-natural-life-in-jail injury, judge Denny Chin made sure it was known that none of Madoff's friends or family bothered to submit letters attesting to the disgraced financier's character. So if we've learned anything from the Madoff saga, it's that stealing massive amounts money from everybody you know is a terrific way to end up friendless and unloved in prison.
