Don`t jump to conclusions....it doesn`t mean the guy had 30million it could relate to crimes in the past.

Usually money is gone when this type of arrest is made. I woud imagine he didn't have enough to cover the "Exit Clause".

[Pattaya_Fox]

....maybe he`s already invested it wisely

Great thing is I wasn't in that position and don't see it happening. You floated to the top first so were you a victim? Hard to make a sarcastic statement, isn't it?

There's a rumour going around that this was all one Big hoax: The true story apparently concerns a severe Cross-Dresser of the Female persuasion; Real name was recorded as Claudia Shiffer (no relation to Klaus !) Age is not 63, but 36 and the money involved was at least 30 Billion . . . . . . . . .

Like who cares !

Well the word is, if you want to be a millionare in Thailand you need to start with 30 million.

I thought it was 40 million but now with the dollar being so low, I think you might need 50 million (1 Mil Euros...)

Anyway... at 63 going to jail isn't that bad... especially if its in Germany...

....maybe he`s already invested it wisely

In his wifes name?

[robsamui]

DEZEURE...you missed the joke! The way to be a millionaire in Thailand is to start with 30 million...because you're going to lose the other 29 million!

Get it?

Normally what the police quote as estimated value has nothing to do with reality at all...for example vandalising a bus stop ( a bit of metal and glass) can be estimated as damage up to ten thousand pounds ( police investigation fees, scrapping of the old bus stop, building the new one etc) the actual bus stop may really cos 200 pounds..they just like to make their bust sound better, thats all.

if he still had 30 million he would still be on his beach drinking a chang beer.
