This is demonstrably false. https://www.houstonchronicle.com/business/energy/article/Enr... > [F]ormer Enron CEO launched Veld Applied Analytics, billed as a sophisticated online platform to invest in oil and gas assets. So skilling is back on energy resources, e.g. exactly where he was at Enron > [CFO Andrew Fastow] has since made a career on the public speaking circuit, with one agency listing his availability to lecture on “corporate culture” at universities and corporations around the world for a $10,000 to $20,000 fee. Not exactly finance, but I also don't know how I ever get to be paid 10-20k/hour I can't find anything about the others, but the two big names seem to be doing well for themselves |
I'd hardly compare being CEO of a crappy startup with 2 news articles about it to one of the largest multinational corporations in the world. You can probably find some shit fund to work for with an insider trading conviction but you won't work for the big boys again.
> but I also don't know how I ever get to be paid 10-20k/hour
There are former felons who now lead nonprofits (I'm sure with 6 figure salaries) [1]. I quote: "In its third year, Just Leadership has a staff of 20 people and a $7.5 million budget for 2018–2019"
If people still decide to pay the guy after he's committed fraud, that's on them.
I'll also note Fastow went to prison for 6 years so it's not like he just paid a fine and got off. And the only reason it was 6 years instead of double digits was he informed on people.
