Man sues bank - aims high with request

Post Posted: Post subject: Man sues bank - aims high with request

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/8318626.stm

So a guy is suing the bank of America. For $1,784,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.

No, I didn't make that up. That's $1,784 billion trillion dollars.

That's more money than there is on the planet. By somewhat of a long shot.

At least he's mastered the art of negotiation. Aim high, then come to a compromise in the middle ground to your advantage. :meh:

He's suing for that much money? Over poor customer service?

Most people would just close their accounts and move to another bank. I did. :P

Seriously though - 1 quadrillion, 784 thousand trillion dollars is a ludicrously large (and specific) amount of money; if his claim was upheld and he was successful in suing the bank, the whole world would become bankrupt and all money would be essentially useless. Is this guy maybe a communist extremist trying to force the planet to give up capitalism? :)
