We’re buying a beer for… Ruth Madoff

Yesterday, your husband was sentenced to 150 years in jail. You got off easier, but you still lost over $77.5 million in assets, including $2.6 million in jewelry and almost $50,000 worth of fur coats. (Of course, you’ll get to keep $2.5 million.) For some reason, you can’t seem to find a place to live, which is sort of vaguely sad — although we imagine many people hope you end up on the street. Also, no one will touch up your highlights. Will the travesties never cease?
The Daily News, never one to shy away from pulling a (perhaps justified) punch, wrote that you’re joining the cursed wives club, putting you in the company of mob bosses’ wives, the wife of ex-Enron CEO Kenneth Lay, and various other unsavory types. That’s awkward. For you.
Ruth, we’ll buy you a beer. Everyone deserves a little kindness. But sorry, we don’t do hair.
