You're like an educated European guy.

I don't get it.

And he basically explained that he doesn't do the mining.

He showed me photos.

He lives in like a shack.

made out of some sort of local wood and thatch, and he lays around while these guys stand around with machine guns, and then a bunch of other local people dig in watery pools with their bare hands and go down into holes, and they pull out coltan.

And it's like a really good gig.

And I said, how did you even find out about that?

And he's like, well, I'm friends with the president of the country, and he allows these operations.

And basically, it was like the most crooked, corrupt, shady...

thing that I'd ever heard.

Yes, I was like, okay, so white European guy goes to Africa and is friends with the president and has militia guards around him but may need to escape at any point in time and basically has what I'm hoping are not slaves digging for coltan in the dirt.

Yeah, exactly.

So, yeah, kept in touch with him for a while, but didn't kind of make the cut after I started finding out about this.

Yeah, it's like, oh, you run a porn cam site.

I want to know about that.

Then I never want to talk to you again.

And then it's like, how do you get payment?

Cryptocurrency.

Oh, so you're basically money laundering slash tax evasion.
