"Yeah that's right petal, billionnaire. I went to uni at 14 and renegotiate debts for small countries. Of course, the money's tied up in a family debt which is why i'm driving this Micra in the meantime. So, fancy a shag princess?

Did he meet her in Bolton, i think i've heard similar lines used with equal success in pulling munters here.

There was a documentary about this case on TV last year. They guy was originally from Germany and appears to be either as very good con-man but also somewhat dilusional.

Also seem to remember that he was implicated somehow in a murder 20 or so years ago in the US before he re-appeared posing as a Rockerfeller.

I'm sure the documentary will get a re-run somewhen soon, interesting stuff. He certainly managed to fool more people than just his wife.

She aint stupid. She's a senior partner of Mckinsey's and they don't make a habit of employing fools. Naive maybe.

I thought people with jobs like this were supposed to be intelligent? FFS!

Sounds just like your average Management Consultant to me.

I assume that is sarcasm. FFS She is 42 years old and has been through a lot. What exactly is wrong with how she looks? She is not a 21 year old supermodel, but she looks absolutely normal to me. Of course every bloke on PH is a George Clooney lookalike...

I've dealt with some McKinsey people, at times known for following the script rather than outright smarts frankly.

Definition of management consultant. Someone who borrows your watch and then tells you the time.

Oldie but goldie.
