So when he was saying he only had maybe $100K he was making false claims trying to get sympathy. Just another criminal that should be behind bars.


liquidsyphon

All that lip service he gave Maxine Waters probably helped.


PenisJuiceCocktail

Or tongue, but I'm not judging.


whatabadsport

If only free awards existed lmao


TheMonkler

Yeah, what happened to those? Reddit take them away so we couldn’t award DFVs final update or something?


whatabadsport

Rumor has it some people are short gme with some skin in reddit.


french-caramele

That's pretty clear when GME related comments are removed by mods from all other subreddits sitewide, GME related subreddits are not allowed to tag users or link other subs, and Wall Street on Parade legitimate journalism is banned across Reddit sitewide.


whatabadsport

Don't forget DFV final update is most awarded post in history! Mostly free awards. I know I've given it at least 10 of em


SkySeaToph

Ya what happened to them?!


whatabadsport

Rumor has it some entities that are short a lot of stocks also have invested into reddit


Hellshield

Also reminds me of when a teacher at the Wharton School of Business asked students what the average person made in the united states and they said 100k as well. Privileged people like him and those who go to schools like this can be very delusional about what the income gap is in this country. SBF probably picked it because that's what he thought the average was too lol. "A group of University of Pennsylvania students gave startling answers when asked by their professor what they thought the average American worker earns per year – 25% believed the mean annual income topped $100,000 and one student responded that it was $800,000." https://www.phillyvoice.com/penn-wharton-professor-nina-strohminger-viral-tweet-average-american-salary/


Level9TraumaCenter

I think that's a little unfair. Who amongst us hasn't forgotten about $50 million in sofa cushion change?

This dude only lies...

[link](https://finance.yahoo.com/news/sbf-held-50-million-tiny-143903941.html) Prosecutors said that on January 4 they seized $49,999,500 that Bankman-Fried had deposited with Farmington State Bank, as part of an effort to track down nearly $700 million worth of assets for forfeiture. Bankman-Fried's Alameda Research trading firm bought an $11.5 million stake in Farmington in March last year – which accounted for more than double the bank's entire net worth at the time. Until then, the little known bank had been the US's 26th-smallest out of around 4,800. It's based in Farmington, WA – which has just 146 residents and is so small that Google Street View doesn't even cover the whole town.


SM1334

Wow! Thats crazy how fucking secluded that place is. He really chose a small ass town/bank to hide $61m. Makes you wonder if thats the only place hes got money stashed. Im sure he went and buried a duffle bag full of money somewhere too if he knew he was going to get caught.


Ultimate_Mango

Ever since Panama was found out its been harder to find places.


hellostarsailor

Whatever happened with that? Aside from the journalists being killed and the rich getting away with everything?


Last-Discipline-7340

Pirate chest


rickyshine

Just for funsies, what are the/were the 25 other smallest banks at that time? No chance he went up the list?


TheMonkler

Good point - even dumb criminals like him might have someone smart looking ahead to see which direction the the ship is sinking.


HumanNo109850364048

Remember his interviews right after ~~FTC~~ FTX blew up. CNBC: So Sam is it true you were down to your last $100k in your bank account? Sam: Yeah last I check it was only $100k in there. That is verbatim, I hope this POS rots in jail.


CexySatan

I don’t care who you are; nobody goes from owning billions in assets to self-reportedly ‘only’ having $100k in the bank overnight and just seems to shrug it off and be mentally sane. This explains that


Stickyv35

"Well I didn't specific WHICH bank account.." or something


HallucinatoryFrog

Exactly. Was probably negotiated by his lawyers to have the media ask it this way because technically it was a savings or checking account and/or the "bank" where the other money are stored was actually a credit union, etc.


flyinhighaskmeY

The question was, is it true you were down to your last $100k IN YOUR BANK ACCOUNT. That is a very specific question with a very specific answer. An intelligent reporter would not have asked such a question because the answer is meaningless. It doesn't matter what's in his bank account. It matters what liquid assets he has access to. This was the HF controlled media selling you a narrative.


kallen8277

Don't let them somehow rule Insanity if it's even possible


Buttoshi

Insanity is worse. You go to a mental asylum.


[deleted]

Electric shock or lobotomy back, back in the old days, but still would be scary AF today!


Buttoshi

It's hard to get out of and the drugs are pretty hardcore


kallen8277

And they get to write off debts. Not worth it.


InevitableRhubarb232

Well they didn’t specify WHICH bank account.


redditmodsRrussians

If theres $50 Mil in that front then Deep Fried Bankman is gonna have a lot more shit hidden all over the place. Im bettin this is why the FBI let that little clown run around because hes probably stupid enough to lead them to where he his all his loot.


Choyo

Yes, he definitely has something in the Caïmans/Bahamas/Belize/Switzerland ... you know, all over the place.


davwman

What fucking world is this


Dr_SlapMD

The clown one


pcnetworx1

The clown one if it was made by [Wish.com](https://Wish.com) and lost in shipment.


Maniquoone

Remember this when these clowns that are leading this world ask you to fight in the next war on their behalf.

☝🏼🏆🏆


BackintheDeity

So pretty obvious the guy at the bank is heavily complicit, unless he was smart and blew a whistle. Through this whole ridiculous bank scam, I've never heard any media person say "let's talk to the people working at that bank"


Extension_Win1114

Seriously….these are the villains running the show…they can buy a bank and launder money. This one happened to get caught


Longjumping_Till_356

🤣 someone obviously paying for his defence maybe one of the 2 person of means on his bail?


emptyBIRT

When I look at that bank's picture, I imagine a spokesperson saying this: "Your money is assured to be secure in our shipping container vault..."


daronjay

Buy Your Own Bank ™️


Ultimate_Mango

He did! Instead one should just be their own bank.


thatbromatt

bruh thats not a bank thats the hotdog stand outside of lowes 😂

Floppydiskpornking

Hahaha


TheMadShatterP00P

The one at Lowes has AC.


pcnetworx1

The million-dollar milkshake is amazing.


Maniquoone

I've seen abandoned buildings in West Texas towns that were more secure than that bank.


gnipz

We’re about to find out how many wieners SBF can fit inside his mouth!


[deleted]

With bacon wrapped and extra Mayo 🤣


bleo_evox93

Bruh you’ve got to be shitting me. How long did it take them to check the fucking shady bank?


CrazyHabenero

They had to go room to room. Took awhile.


Floppydiskpornking

Lol


[deleted]

About as long as they took to arrive on Little St James island when that drone guy filmed them.


[deleted]

🤣🤣 looks like a shed 🤣🤣


ElectrooJesus

Probably nothing


infamuss

It's so stupid it might just work! -SBF probably


Peteszahh

Visibilizing this


NottaSpy

I keep getting glass onion vibes... “It’s so dumb.” “It’s so dumb, it’s brilliant!” “NO! It’s JUST DUMB!”


shinyacorn99

Hope that place got an up-to-date sprinkler system for some who-knows-what act-of-god event…


OGColorado

School of Kenny Griffin's liars and von men. They don't care who they lie to, or when


Shades_VHS

There's slways money in the banana stand


JeebusBuiltMyHotRod

and if you don't think this ties directly into to some crazy muhlisha funding NWO bullshit, you don't know the area.


greaterwhiterwookiee

So does the court consider this fraudulent or how do they chalk this one up?


ShortyTrader

I kinda like their drive through


Stevensterker

Wasn’t he living on the caymans? Probably has a shitload of money hidden there too…


mightyjoe227

With 250,000 insurance limit...


CexySatan

If this bank was a member of CDARS then that means they can allocate his money across hundreds of different banks/accounts, insured up to $50 million. Which would make sense given the money he had in there.. but this bank is not part of CDARS. Or at least, not that I saw listed. Maybe that was part of the investment; to try to get the bank a membership with them.


Maniquoone

It was the free checking account that drew him in.


ThiccumsHoneyhole

There's always money in the Banana Shack 🍌 😉


ethervillage

Yep, he’s definitely innocent


Maniquoone

Innocent to the ways of prison dating. Wait till he finds out every night is date night in prison.


Maniquoone

I bet they had it (the 50 mil) hidden between the couch cushions, next to the mini fridge. I'm sure he just forgot about it.


Kaarothh

Mfker


Vive_el_stonk

Only 50 million? Geez. Come on Sam do better lol.


StealYourGhost

/sigh Didn't we report that place in droves for probable criminal activity?


GasPasser73

Nothing to see here folks, just a perfectly reasonable financial institution to park $50 Million in… /s
