I’m sick and tired of Chinese nationals stealing things from me. I just looked in my basement. I’m missing nearly $10,000 U.S. Dollars and 14.25 ounces of gold bars.
If the Border Patrol would return the above items to me I’d really appreciate it.
$28,000 is a lot to most people...
24 ounces...oops 14 is more like it.
What Democrat campaign was this for?
There are so many dirt roads that cross into Canada, from Maine, that it’s almost impossible to patrol all areas. This network of roads, were built for logging, and criss cross throughout the northern part of the state.
truly not a lot of gold. less than 14 troy ounces
Today, gold is close to or just over $2k/ounce. That’s 14 Krugerrands. BFD. I wear one on a 1 ounce gold chain.
It’s funny when I cross the border, because many agents are surprised at how small $4K is in the real world.
Don’t forget: crossing the border with over 10K will get your money confiscated if you don’t declare it. See the 1971 law...
I often carry about $30,000 in gold bars.
You know, in case Taco Bell is open. Those $5 meals add up...
...In looter’s terms, is that about the size of 3 gold teeth?...
Post 1 & 5- Exactly, my first thought.
Coming to do the job that legal Americans won’t take: smuggling and money laundering. /s
It’s like the storys about some guy with 728 rounds of ammo. Way over hyped.
14 one ounce bars
It could be her life savings or it could be she was smuggling fakes.
Yes or have a friend in Smyrna or Houlton with a spare bed.
