Ben, LOL! I'll try to not lecture anyone on this crazy issue, as it's been discussed thoroughly. And besides, I'm the least PIOUS person I know! AND I don't think all lawyers are crooks... they just naturally evolve that way, nature of the beast, so to speak. (Some of my best friends are lawyers!)
The OSRecovery civil suit is getting interesting. Suffice to say that the core defendants are now being pursued vigorously, and the co-defendants, less so. I have had a number of lengthy phone conferences with the plaintiffs lawyers this week, about this and other issues. What are the major lessons for me, and ultimately, all of us? Primarily, don't have an office in the US. (A good percentage of Fortune 500 companies have now re-located offshore... what does that tell you?) If the legal system in the US targets innocent business people, it's, uhhh, time for a change & throw some more shrimps on the barbie, as Paul Hogan used to say! This is purely a safety/longevity issue. And by the same token, years of dealing with the massively flawed US banking transfer system has educated us that it's not a pleasant experience, nor a safe one, especially not a reliable one. And that was BEFORE 9/11. I will personally assist any of our customers who have a US bank account, to replace it with a UK/European bank or similar. In any case, it's not that difficult, if you can show normal ID & have benign interests. In other words, just be a normal person (whatever that entails!) Cheers!
