Maureen Ebel : Princess to Pauper
The financial crisis has hammered people all over the broad spectrum of life. Mega investors have committed suicide, millionaires have attempted suicide, hedge fund managers have been arrested; however, there are thousands of lesser known stories, like Maureen Ebel. It’s a repeat of the Enron employees who put all their eggs in one basket only to find that the basket had a hole in the bottom.
New York investment manager Bernard L. Madoff had been charged with massive fraud and the list of his victims is long varied of which one is Maureen Ebel, 60, a widow who thought she had $7.3 million with Madoff. And for a woman of her age life was going to end in convenience and comfortable style. Then she got the message.Madoff was a Ponzi scheme artist. And her world changed immediately.
Six days after Madoff’s arrest for allegedly bilking investors in a $50 billion Ponzi scheme, Ebel had a strenuous temporary job caring for a wealthy friend’s 93-year-old mother and keeping her house, pushing the vacuum cleaner and ironing. “The first day, I went home and cried,” Ebel said. Ebel, a retired nurse was now re-engaging her forgotten skills.
“This is my fate,” said Ebel, who is still pained by her husband’s death in 2000, when he was just 53.
“I was married, had a fabulous marriage to a man I loved and worshiped, a physician. We traveled. We had a very fine life. And he’s dead. He died, and every penny I had in the world has been stolen.” During an interview in the living room of her four-bedroom colonial on a West Goshen Township cul-de-sac, Ebel swung between despair over her losses, anger that Madoff still calls a Manhattan penthouse home after ruining thousands, and determination to build a new life.
Maureen has put her Lexus SUV up for sale on eBay, hoping to sell it before the next $690 payment is due Feb. 15. And to have any hope of making the $2,400-a-month payments on her house in West Chester, she will have to get recertified as a nurse, go back to work and take in a boarder. She has already sold small items to scrape dollars together: a Ping-Pong table from her basement for $400, a painting for $1,500, jewelry for $1,100.
Ebel is much better off than many because she was once a princess. There are others who were commoners with few options.
