Bernie Madoff squandered $3 million of sister Sondra's money, so the 74-year-old must sell her $900,000 Palm Beach home. Maybe she could try the newly-popular local pawn shop.

Sondra Wiener's case is especially sad because she apparently can't afford to pay the mandatory country club dues, which run $35,000 to $115,000. Madoff tried mailing her like $1 million in jewelry, but of course the Feds know all about that now, so it's been returned.

Her son, Madoff's nephew, tells the Post, "my family's a victim. More so than anybody else." That would be the son that isn't a director at Madoff Securities.

Elsewhere in the Post, readers learn about Kofski Antiques, who is buying items off once-rich Madoff victims, pawn shop style. He took out an ad in the local paper to find them, and is now offering one man's "silver, artwork and a new Bentley," which he has on consignment.

This, rich people, is what the poors call a "fire sale." It's a great time to buy, if you can afford it. And if you can get to your desired goods first. Maybe hire an experienced Wal-Mart shopper to train you. Like the maid you just fired.
