Something isn't right in this story.
One guy gets 2 million barrels of oil and makes $150,000.
The other guy gets 29 million barrels of oil and only makes $250,000.
Why is that? Taxes ;-)

Le Frogs are very stupid about money, it seems.
First, this from yesterday: (French) Banks caught by €5m spy sting (con)

Now this: "M Boidevaix...29 million barrels between 1998 and 2003...made $250,000 from selling on the vouchers..."
LESS than a penny/BBL!
Guess me Ol' Pappy was right when he said that a Frenchman would sell his own mother for sou.
