For those who may be interested, here is a quick anecdote...
I had some email correspondence with Dean Du Vall (business-related) around the middle of last year...
He wrote me a long email in response, updating me on what had most recently happened with him.
I won't go into all the details (since I don't have permission), but the short story is he had a medical issue, and was taken to hospital.
While he was recuperating in hospital, Du Vall said that his wife of the time fled with a sizable chunk of his wealth. He took her to court, and got much of it back, and they ended up getting divorced.
He then wrote a book about it, called "The Longest Con."
Du Vall has since fully recovered, and also remarried.
You can read about "The Longest Con" at the website he created about it here...

(I haven't read the book itself, though...)
Best wishes,
Dien
