I think this is an example of "pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered." Edit: if someone looks at a jail sentence and a $250,000 fine and decides stealing millions is still "worth it" even if you are caught, it's actually not. Judges order restitution to the defrauded, even if you can't realistically pay it. That means your assets will be seized (bye bye Tesla and house) and you'll never be able to build wealth ever again because any of your future wages will be garnished, forever, because you'll never be able to pay back that debt, which will be the amount you stole plus interest plus legal fees.
