Tired of your dead-end job? Why not become a convicted fraud felon and sell your secrets to the FBI!
Seriously. Meet Barry Minkow at his FDI site. (Yes, FDI, not FBI.)
Here’s
a guy who once went to prison for schlepping hundreds of millions of
dollars from consumers in the 1980s. He even once bunked with a
convicted murderer, and his biography claims that he spent seven years
in prison among many of the “nation’s leading white-collar criminals.”Apparently,
they taught him how to play the PR game to the hilt. It seems these
days that most people convicted of some sort of crime tend to find God
or some religion when all else fails. Folgers Coffee drinkers – take heed – you’ve got competition with Insta-Religion and Insta-Credibility poured in for good measure.
