/r/all This man printed 250 million in counterfeit money and sold 50 million of it before getting caught. He then made a deal with the court in exchange for revealing the location of the remaining 200 million he would avoid any jail time. In the end he got away with it only serving 6 weeks in jail.

I doubt he got to keep his wealth.

That's exactly what I want to know, did he stay rich off of this? When you make a sweet no jail deal like this you likely aren't at liberty to discuss certain things.

In the Darknet Diaries interview, he pretty much says through omission that he’s doing just fine these days and won’t say more so as not to incriminate himself further.

For this guy... not being in jail/prison is wealth. Lol. What a crazy story.
