General Bank Of America Anonymous Leak Alleges 'Corruption And Fraud'

[seph ir oth]

but it's more than a few grand!

 

[Varine]

The term few is subjective!

And go Anon.

Varine is rich!!!!

 

[YourFace]

Varine has 20 mil in his bank, so he can toss a few 50ks everywhere he wants!

 

[Varine]

No, Varine has about $5,000 in his bank. However Varine is poor as fuck and doesn't have an issue with accepting that, and knows that even if he had several hundred thousand sitting in that account, it still wouldn't be that much. A lot to you, maybe, but not that much.

Why? Don't tell me you don't like money

 

[Varine]

How was it at all implied I don't like money? I simply don't have much. I'm an unemployed, full time student living primarily off loans and the odd freelance work I find from time to time. If I get desperate I have programs I've developed I can sell, but I only really need about 17,000 dollars a year to live. Most of what I have above that is invested into my projects. With such a small amount, I haven't got much issue with putting it in a bank. It's unlikely that it will go away suddenly, and even if it does the bank will probably just be bought off by someone else and a different bank will inherit that debt. In the event of some kind of Enron situation, the government has to give it back because it's federally insured.

Oh wow, what a life you have there By the way, quick question: how do we unzip and zip using a dll? I'm trying to make a Warcraft III Version Switcher and I just need that. It's okay if you don't know how to

Well back to topic, I agree with you, we don't need so much money!

 

[Varine]

What? You mean, like programming? I don't know, use shell32.dll maybe? What language? Do you actually mean un/zip as in using the x.zip compression? I think all you would have to do is a package that contains all of the files changed in the last version, delete those files from the game's directories, and then replace them. Well that would be the easy way, could require a lot of data depending on how large the update is, but that's how we're doing them for our games. Doing it in reverse shouldn't be a problem. Aren't there already reverse patches available?

And it's not necessarily that. I don't necessarily like the standard of living I have, however given the circumstances (although I do despise school right now. It's no wonder so many people drop out, the amount I've learned is laughable) I'm fairly content. I desperately need about 12,000 dollars though. Which if I had, I could possibly have a working prototype of one of my projects. One I think is fairly profitable because I don't think anyone has done it yet, at least I haven't found one, but I'm getting increasingly worried there is one. In which case I will be very upset because I am really excited about being the first one to do it.

But anyway, yes. 50,000 is a lot of money. I could get a lot done if I had 50 grand at my disposal. I could complete almost all of my undegraduate studies over the next year and a half with that amount of money (as it stands it will likely be about three or four more years as I can't get that much money at once it seems. Which is a lot longer than I want to be here...).

However, we aren't talking about you or I. We are talking about banks. 50,000 dollars is a jokeable amount. That pays ONE employee a year maybe. These are massive companies, they employ thousands of people. Millions of dollars are thrown around every month on salaries alone. 50,000 is an amount they could easily just lose every year and not even notice it - just flat out fucking lose. With no excuse for it happening, because no one knows it happened. Of course there is going to be corruption. There is corruption everywhere. But banks aren't targetting us - what the corrupted do really isn't going to have a lot of an affect on your or my money, if any. Typically no one notices. But even the worst case scenarios, we don't lose much, maybe some initial confusion as our accounts are sold off. Even if they aren't sold, the government has to reimburse us legally. And if the government doesn't exist to do that, I think we have some bigger things to worry about at that point. You're money might even have been sold to a foreign entity, so it's still there. It's just in a different country somewhere.

Hmm, I guess you're right, Varine. 50,000 dollars to a Bank? Oh damn! They can even swallow it if it isn't illegal!

Ouch. My current income is about 10k a year and I can perfectly live off of that amount. Actually I can live off of 5k a year, 7k is "luxury life" for me

A software engineer costs about 100 000$ a year. For a bank, millions of $ are still peanuts. And they loose more than 50k a year. I would say 2% depreciation, but I have no clue.

Ouch! I'd never get to see 50k in my lifetime i guess...

 

[Varine]

They don't need that many software engineers. They do, however, need a lot of tellers.
