He'd have to go for a third world branch maybe South America, the offices here have no growth potential, but his credentials are still good if he wants to go back into trading.

Solid post dude

This is fucking WINNING any way you slice it:

Packouz got into his brand-new blue Audi A4 and headed home for the evening, windows open, the stereo blasting. At 25, he wasn't exactly used to the pressures of being an international arms dealer. Only months earlier, he had been making his living as a massage therapist; his studies at the Educating Hands School of Massage had not included classes in military contracting or geopolitical brinkmanship. But Packouz hadn't been able to resist the temptation when Diveroli, his 21-year-old friend from high school, had offered to cut him in on his burgeoning arms business. Working with nothing but an Internet connection, a couple of cellphones and a steady supply of weed, the two friends — one with a few college credits, the other a high school dropout — had beaten out Fortune 500 giants like General Dynamics to score the huge arms contract. With a single deal, two stoners from Miami Beach had turned themselves into the least likely merchants of death in history.
 
Sean518So.. who's down to learn how to play fbo ? The way I see it with this guy in jail there must be room for a boutique arms dealer to fill the void he left.. There are probably some other "consulting" opportunities that could be taken advantage of as well.
I like the way you think

One teensy problem

We're committing stuff to the record here......
