Damn. So even the bank is in on the deception?! Fukkin nuts.A few years ago I overheard Patrick Kane having a conversation about when he first got his contract checks, he said "I told them just get as close as you can to making the check out to me. Not some company, not some shell corporation, none of that , just get as close as you can to write my name on the check and I'll go put it in the bank. Banks always wanted to work out some "Investment deal" with me, the answers was always no. I don't need anybody else to do shyt with my millions of dollars, I'm capable of handling them myself. I have months off at a time each year and I'm not that lazy or dumb to not sit down and do my own taxes, I can handle my own money"
I'll never forget that shyt, dude was like 23 eating in Lawrys in a T-shirt and flip flops.
He was right though.

Ehh, Yes and No. What happens when you have a certain amount of money to be put in the bank, is that banks treats you and your money differently. If you have ~$50 million to put in an account, the banks not going to want to treat your 50 million account like Joe Schmoe's $5,000 account. They make offers to invest it for you or offer you services and contracts that aren't available to regular customers like Joe Schmoe or Jane Doe.
Patrick Kane was fresh off a playoff run, I forget what his contract was but he was already rich as sh*t at this point, so I could see them wantin to play with his money differently. It's not necessarily crooked, but it's not necessary either, it's just greed at that point.

If it was me I would be sending my lil brother or sister or my momma to school to learn how to manage my money if I didn't wanna do it myself.
