Leaving a money trail when you’re stupid

Hello, stranger! New here? How about subscribing to my RSS feed? Thanks for visiting!
I’m pretty sure the New York govenor scandal of Eliot Spitzer with a call girl is pretty old news now. However, when your blog name is Money Relations, anything related to money goes.
It’s interesting what you can learn on the web. In personal finance, tracking your money is a big thing. So here’s a twist in a Forbes article on how authorities track your money when you do bad things. Basically, don’t do it.
The net is tighter now after 9/11 with new anti-money laundering rules in place. They were designed to capture terrorist and drug dealers when large amounts of money are transfered but as we see in the Spitzer saga, johns are getting caught as well. Dumbasses.
Here’s a news flash: cash is king. Haven’t they ever seen movies where they tell you to get off the grid and don’t use your credit cards? I could scoff in bewilderment at what poor choices these politicians are making but frankly, I’m sure that there are countless others doing exactly the same thing but haven’t been caught - yet. But they are doing their job… well.
All I can say is if you pull a stunt like that, be prepared be humiliated and pay. So the call girl went for $4k plus? What went through my mind was how much it’s going to cost him when I saw his wife stand at his side during his public announcement of shame. That’s got to be a few million at least. Cha-ching.

It amazes me that people still leave a trail when they are trying to hide something. How hard is it like you said to withdrawal a few bucks, spend it and leave no trail at all!? It’s not that hard
Or just not hire prostitutes when you are a politician.
