Follow the money. £500k teaser

1406

I’ve been sent a brain teaser.  What legal reasons would someone have to discretely pay another individual £500k?  The people are not currently in business together, although the recipient previously worked for the sender.  No goods have been provided.

It’s a puzzle.

Looking for legal reasons only, no crazy illegal notions or wild speculation about real persons, this is purely a theoretical exercise.

Apparently I’m being sent a moral dilemma tomorrow: Will the recipient, with off-shore accounts but living in interesting times, declare the £500k?

    if all we had to listen to where the likes of hately, good God. How long did this era last at Rangers – 20 years. The end justifies the means, just keep saying it’s ok and nobody will question us, we want success so we’ll go and get it, forget the rulebook, tell the proles we’re the best and keep coming up with dodgy ways to stay on top, everything for one man’s dream, pure Thatcherism, there is no society.

    My first view of Celtic .League Cup final. Ranglers overwhelming favourites and they did not except defeat like gentlemen.

     

    Celtic had to cut short the lap-of-honour and run for their lives as the huns invaded the pitch.

     

    It was mayhem around me in the mixed enclosure .

     

    Vastly outnumbered Celtic fans getting attacked all around and outside making our way to the station was more really bad scenes of violence .

  14. All those poor Rangers folk, duped by the evil genius that is Craig Whyte. They really thought he was the billionaire whyte knight come to save them. And no one could possibly have uncovered the truth about his past.

     

     

    Unless they had Googled him of course. Or checked his previous record as a company director. Or the court cases he had been involved in? The ban on acting as a company director? All matter of public record.

     

     

    Anyone familiar with a computer could have found all of that out within ten minutes. And any self respecting journalist should be thinking about resigning if he or she couldn’t manage that level of basic research.

  15. Roy….

     

     

    perhaps he should…..that plate will soon be a valuable piece of memorabilia!

    Ps you are quite patently a big H.. Aren’t you ?

  18. Show mo mercy to McCall and co today, bhoys. Who comes second is a matter for lesser teams to fight about. We should only care about keeping our wonderful run going and heading for the title.

     

     

    Thomas Rogne had a wee rest in midweek and could be back today. And if Scott Brown has a knock he can have the day off with Victor Wanyama coming back into the midfield. I wouldn’t be surprised to see James Forrest or Sami start in place of Kris Commons too.

     

     

    Must be great as a manager to have so many options all over the pitch.

    wee Chic had a bad feeling about him though.

  20. Any victory will do for me today. I just want that league table to be showing a 23 point lead tonight.

     

     

    And I have a wee sneaky for Inverness tomorrow…….

  23. “I do not choose to be a common man, it is my right to be uncommon … if I can, I seek opportunity … not security. I do not wish to be a kept citizen, humbled and dulled by having the State look after me. I want to take the calculated risk; to dream and to build, to fail and to succeed. I refuse to barter incentive for a dole; I prefer the challenges of life to the guaranteed existence; the thrill of fulfillment to the stale calm of Utopia. I will not trade freedom for beneficence nor my dignity for a handout. I will never cower before any master nor bend to any threat. It is my heritage to stand erect; proud and unafraid; to think and act for myself, to enjoy the benefit of my creations and to face the world boldly and say: This, with God’s help, I have done. All this is what it means to be an Entrepreneur.”
