Hell, that's not true. I'm a con man. But not just any con man. I only go after the wealthy. That's not entirely true either. My 'marks' are godless people. Those monsters that prey on the weak and vulnerable. After a successful 'job', a portion of the proceeds goes into an account in order to draw salaries, pay overhead and fund future endeavors. Just like any business enterprise. The rest is distributed to those that are less fortunate. Poor people. My father was an extremely successful international con man who was murdered by the son of his arch nemisis in a car explosion. My mother is a great beauty devoted to humane causes.
