So… if I wanted to do a scam… and I’d sell tickets to a cruise ship for 3 years, upfront payment of $90k… let’s say I sell 2000 seats for $180mil.
Is that enough money to disappear forever and live under a false identity?
Slowly paying it back while having the money invested, like they’re doing, is the real play.
Unless you declare bankruptcy.
There’s no way they’ll go bankrupt. Drop the money in a low risk investment, make 7% APR on it while waiting as long as possible to pay it back. It’s guaranteed profit at this point. Going bankrupt would only ruin that.
I am legally required to say no.
yes thoMaybe, maybe not. But if you’re paying back in monthly installments, there’s still going to be a lot of interest for you to live off of in the meantime.
Yeah, I’ll… pay it back. Promise.
Getting that money out of the company to use is very hard and can be traced/returned. It’s not like they’ve got 180M in cash. And having your company bank exclusively with shady banks is likely to prevent you from getting a business license.
You should read up on off shore accounts. Things are wild.
Just to add, you’re a cruise, it’d be expected you have an offshore account.
