    Blast! They removed the offer before I was even able throw a bet on it. Sneaky bastards. I'd love to rule Denmark. Then I would have a lifetime supply of free Gammel Dansk. :)

    I really can't understand why you didn't take the shot though, Jar. Denmark would be as good a spot as anything to start up the Regime on. Oh well, there'll come more chances.

    Or maybe not.

    Please, if I can afford a country given my current finances, then it isn't worth the time or effort.

    I dunno, I'm sure you could find an island or something in the carribean and then you can buy it off the natives for a pittance and make a deal with the Australian government to send all the refugees they don't want. They've been opressed before so I'm sure they're perfectly mould, they'd be quite willing to follow orders and maybe even die for you.

    Man, you don't even get that place to yourself. What a rip off. If I'm going to be forking out 4 million for an underground facility, I'd better get the whole place to myself.

    I think a moon base would be much cooler. Not much chance of a surprise attack if you're up there, and you can lord over all and sundry, and who's going to tell you different? Nobody, that's who. Plus when the Earth goes to shit, you've already got a nice piece of real estate, and can charge whatever rent you want when governments come a-begging.

    The whole moon base thing is basically the plot of a novel I'm writing. Or at least, the historical events that come before the novel.

    Victor Lustig was his name. That guy was one cool motherfucker. He also conned Al Capone (short version - borrowed $50k, promised to double it in a few months, did nothing, and long after the time was up he was still hanging around as though everything was okay. Eventually he gets hauled up to Capone, tells him the scheme failed, and returns his money, which really throws Capone, who then gives him $5k because Lustig claims he's in financial trouble) and sold quite a few people his Romanian Box, which "copied" money. Definitely a great imposter/swindler.

    He also ended up in jail with Capone as well.
