First, a lawyer for the superrich who both exploits the tax code to save his clients money and sounds the alarm when a loophole feels too outrageous:
He’s not ashamed of this. His methods are perfectly legal. In fact, he sees himself not as someone who exploits the system for the benefit of the few but as the guy who keeps the system honest for everyone.
Second, a man who made some of the best fake U.S. banknotes using an inkjet printer:
He dedicated an upstairs room in his new house to a regimented counterfeiting process, with two Hewlett-Packard computers, nine inkjet and laserjet printers, stacks of paper divided by type; it was a manufacturing routine based on production-line principles: “Probably the best organised office I’ve ever seen,” Mack Jenkins says.
Third, a man in the late 60s moves to San Diego to live a life of poverty and freedom:
