The decline from democracy to tyranny is both a natural and inevitable one.

    WOW, Thompson sure is committed to the cause...or maybe he just can't remember where he put it? B)

    Sounds like the gold in question belongs to the investors not to Tommy.
    Just can't trust people when it comes to gold.

    Hmm. Interesting. I wonder what the truth is exactly. Is 5+ years of your life worth 5 million or so? Maybe, maybe not.

    If you earned the 5 million yes.
    If you stole the 5 million no.

    Perhaps he no longer knows where the coins are... Yet divulging where they were, could lead authorities to his accomplice.... Just a thought... Cheers, RickO

    I agree... and that is the million dollar question right there.

    What's the statute of limitations?
    7 years?
    Must be a decent chunk of gold to play that game.
    Bonus on the free room and board.

    Michael Milken "stole" $4B, was fined $2B and spent two years in a minimum security camp. By my calculation they paid him $1B per year to go to prison...I might do that. Not $1M/year.

    ANA-LM, NBS, EAC

    Long incarceration for a short boat ride.
