Tal.. that article is total BS... I know for a fact how much and where some of his money is sitting... and its more than that article claims is his total net worth... and there is no doubt there is a lot stashed other places.. as it would be wise to do.Quote:

Know it all, eh? Well tell us or shut up
Why would I want to tell you WHERE... so people I know might get fired? Because you likely won't believe it anyway... because you believe journalists are ALWAYS honest and unbiased.Quote:

Because I know a LOT of things Joe average has no clue about and I can't say... and even in cases like this... go into detail about. For a number of reasons... sometimes legal... sometimes because it would cost several good people their jobs if I did which is the case this time.
Ask a teller at your bank sometime... they will explain to you why. And you won't have to take my word for it. I'm sure Australia has similar laws on the topic as we have.
It would be nice to actually know what you are talking about. We have no laws against whistle blowers but of course retaliation happens. I used to be a bank teller, you keep the clients business confidential and don't even hint you might know something to big note yourself. As an accountant I live by Integrity which means you keep clients information confidential unless of course there are legal issues
Here there are actual legal issues if someone even looks at an account they are not actually doing business with at that moment... there are other legal issues if that information is passed on... even by the party who did not originally see it themselves.Quote:

That's why I would not say "X" has Precicesly "X" ammounts in "X", "X", and "X" institutions. Though I do know numbers that are very close to current... I won't say how much or where... beyond the writer of that article being full of bovine excrement.
Integrity and journalism are mutually exclusive terms these days.
Yes smoothy we know certain media rely on sensationalism and the old ploy of make an accusation, how many times do we see reporting that we know to be factually incorrect, or we find later to be factually incorrect, Too much spin and hype and political crap
Exactly.. and some of us have seen far more of it than most people (speaking for myself). Without having to wait for someone to later prove them wrong... assuming they can get any airtime at all when they do.Quote:

That's what we try to tell ourselves to make it easier to stomach... the reality is most of this stuff like many a weighted down body in the river... never comes to the surface again. Only a few ever pop up to cause problems for someone.Quote:
