Your analysis is too narrow. You are missing the point. The point is, people such as Madoff and Rossi have enormous chutzpah, and they are reckless. They will say or do anything. They assume they will always find a way to win out. Rossi must have thought he could blazon his way through and demand money from IH. He thought they would fold, and pay something, if not the full amount. The specifics details about whether Madoff was sued or Rossi filed suit is not at all what I am getting at. The key thing is, these people will do or say anything, even filing a lawsuit they cannot win. - Jed
