Description

Business editorial illustration for Canadian Lawyer Magazine. This one accompanied an article about the expected increase in Ponzi schemes that lawyers should expect to see it in the future and the legal difficulties in prosecuting them. On a side note, and here’s a bit of a personal story, much of my work day is spent listening to podcasts, included in which is the ‘Stuff You Should Know’ podcast. I’m not sure whether it was Josh or Chuck, but in their podcast on Ponzi schemes, one of the podcasters would say ‘It’s a Ponzi’ in a heavy Italian accent.  From the moment I got the call about this job I’ve been saying ‘It’s a Ponzi’, to the great annoyance of my wife, in the heaviest Italian accent I can fake.
