Milken spent less than two years in prison, and was fined $600 million.
SBF has been sentenced for 25 years, and fined $11 billion. Pretty big difference - how much money does he have left?

You can be sure there's a healthy reserve put aside in his parents' name.

I honestly don't know what your point is. The topic being debated, "Is Michael Milken good?"

I'm not broadly aware of what Milken did but it sounds like he paid the price for his crimes and served his sentence. If he's rejoined society and has had a positive social impact, I'd call that a win.

I think that goes to show the inadequacy of the law more than anything. If he stole the same out of money by walking up to a bank teller, he would still be in jail

I mean, the damage is done. Let's not condemn him for at least doing good now. Would you rather he did nothing at all?

It's whitewash.
No amount of philanthropy washing can erase the damage his done.
Fuck that guy.
