Wow, sure sounds like they have extra money lying around that they wouldn't miss if it were taxed.

    Okay. Say no?

    I went to the bank one day, I says to the bank manager, I says to him, sir, I need an account opened for a shell llc to skirt the tax man a little extra for my own self, he says to me, no.

    I says okay then.

    Just say no.
