These are just phantom fares.
That car is on the road three shifts every day.
And at the end of the day, you know, at the end of every shift, the secretary from the office, she's going to make cash deposits.
Why?
Because it's Americans renting them.
The party buses that run from Cabo San Lucas to La Paz, those buses don't leave the terminal.
But on paper, they're making two trips a day filled with gringos.
The sport fishing boats, Cabo San Lucas is an enormous sport fishing area.
Well, the charter boats are rented twice a day, filled with Americans.
And as you can see, this provides a pretext for them to just say all these cash deposits.
Or if it made zero, you just said it made $20,000.
A lot of times those charter boats don't even leave.
They just stay in the marina.
But on paper, they've made two trips filled with seven tourists.
But yeah, so I mean, it's... Well, here domestically in the United States, that's a common ploy that's used in Los Angeles.
several decades ago the most popular athlete on the planet was Bo Jackson and so this was in the summer of 93 and so me and a group of my buddies were all partying at a nightclub in Beverly Hills called the China Club and so my buddy comes over hey you want to meet Bo Jackson you know I lived in Los Angeles but I was from Chicago I actually grew up just a few miles away from Comiskey Park well he was on the White Sox at the time so I go over I get introduced to Jackson we bullshit for a little while no big deal a year later I see him again at a nightclub down in Newport Beach
And so I walked over, reintroduced myself.
And he remembered, because there weren't too many guys from the south side of Chicago who had moved to Barley Hills.
And so we had this whole little conversation.
Like I said, we spent a few minutes bullshitting.
