Are our senior condo owners just too trusting? Are they willing to ignore warning signs -- just to try to live in peace? Are they shutting down their business sense just to "fit in”? Or are they plainly too gullible and impressed by somebody who is well-spoken and nice?
A female board member of a condo was totally shocked when she had to realize that a fellow board member had embezzled funds: "He was such a nice guy, didn't even forget my birthday!"
A judge who recently sentenced a board member to 20 years in jail said it just the way it is (quote): "These people saw you as their knight in shining armor, and that made it easier for you to do your scheme.''
