I insist that my bonds are denominated in US$

You know there's something messed up about your economy when the citizens who have the cash in full to buy a property are willing to pay the full purchase price plus annual interest just to get a place outside the borders.

Edit: Oh, and then leave the place derelict even.

Marti is going full Trump on us.

Someone should check if his name is on the list.

I am not rich enough.

Didn't you describe a rather shady arrangement by which you're minimizing your taxes?

Err, no. I am just doing what every lawyer in this country is doing, that is working as a self-employed professional rather than an employee, which allows me to pay a 19% flat income tax rate.

[DGuller]

Err, no. I am just doing what every lawyer in this country is doing, that is working as a self-employed professional rather than an employee, which allows me to pay a 19% flat income tax rate.

So you're being employed as a self-employed professional? 

[Martinus]

Err, no. I am just doing what every lawyer in this country is doing, that is working as a self-employed professional rather than an employee, which allows me to pay a 19% flat income tax rate.

So you're being employed as a self-employed professional? 

Yes. Besides, the state spends the money on stupid stuff and doesn't even allow me to marry - so why should I share the product of my hard work with it.

You don't see how this kind of chicanery may be viewed in the same light as the other stuff in Panama Papers:  technically legal but highly dubious?

1. Everybody is doing this.
2. I have already said I don't find anything wrong with Panama Papers. Haters gonna hate.

I wonder if Marty will have to go to jail.

[Eddie Teach]

I wonder if Marty will have to go to jail.

About as likely as Hillary.

[Martinus]

I wonder if Marty will have to go to jail.

About as likely as Hillary.

I wonder if Marty will have to go to jail.

About as likely as Hillary.

whatd I do now?

[Eddie Teach]

You mishandled classified documents.

[Martinus]

You mishandled classified documents.

Is this one of those roleplay scenarios?

[Eddie Teach]

Not one of those.
