tentacles into a foundation
Book deals, foundations, and non-profits .... the ultimate in money laundering. La Cosa Nostra, the Cartels, and every other criminal organization could learn a lot and from the folks that write books that no one buys but are paid incredibly hefty advances and the folks that run non-profits, etc.
Absolutely. I was very slow to recognize the money-laundering aspect of the “book deals” until just a few years ago.
