Paul Simon

With a career spanning six decades, Paul Simon has been regarded as one of the best songwriters in music history. When he was just starting, Simon formed the duo Simon & Garfunkel, which released five studio albums. The two became one of the most praised groups of the 1960s. The singer was given credit for writing almost all their songs, such as The Boxer and Mrs. Robinson.

Simon was part of the group that was conned by known Ponzi schemer Kenneth Starr. The latter has already pleaded guilty to collecting millions from celebrity investors and is now awaiting sentencing. There is also very little chance that the celebrities would get any money back, considering that Starr only has about $140,000 in the bank, along with some artwork. The prosecutors are doing their best to seize Starr’s financial and real estate assets. We hope that this works out for the best, though.
