  • Reader Feedback on Madoff’s RPG Coders Indicted in Ponzi Scam

    April 5, 2010 Timothy Prickett Morgan

    Finally RPG is back! After all these years of being relegated to boring OLTP programs, RPG and the AS/400 rock!

    Now, when I send resumes, I include all the articles regarding Madoff and the 400, underscoring the creative use of RPG in the scheme.

    I have had more offers in the last year than the last 20 years combined! HA! All you sniveling little Java, VB, PHP, and .NET programmers–who’s laughing now!

    –TS

    “And this probably makes O’Hara and Perez the two highest paid RPG programmers in history.”

    Is it wrong to take perverse pride in this? I’m still laughing. . . .

    –Doug

    If you don’t laugh, you will cry. Might as well laugh. All enlightened beings do. . . .

    –TPM
