The LLC Money Laundering Shell Company Game

[MineralMan]

Step right up to the table, Sport! You look like a winner. Smart, too, I bet!

Let me show you how it works. See these three shell companies? Now watch. I'm going to put a million dollars under this shell. Keep your eye on the shell company where the money is as I move the shells around. When I stop, you point at the one with the money. If you're right, the money's yours. If you're wrong, you pay me $100,000. Win a million or pay $100,000.

How can you lose? There are only three shell companies. All you have to do is watch carefully and keep track of the one with the cash. It's easy! It's not a trick. I guarantee that if you point at the shell company that's hiding the money, it's yours. You're risking only 10% of your sure winnings, see.

Ready? Keep your eye on that shell company. Watch carefully as I move the shells around....don't take your eyes off the winner!

Now! Which shell covers the money? Point at it!

Oops, not that one. See, it's under this one. Now, hand over the $100,000. Bad luck!

Try again? There's still a million bucks to win. You won't make the same mistake twice, right?

Ready?....
