It’s just been proven, what we’ve suspected all along - dealing in drugs does bring in big money. Say what you will about the risks of getting gunned down by rivals, police swat teams, or even angry jilted ex-girlfriends, that doesn’t change the fact that the potential money is enormous.
Mexican Zhenli Ye Gon, aka Charley Ye, had amassed at least USD 207 million in his Mexico City mansion, alleged from drug-related activities. Two whole tons of USD 100 notes. A guy like that has no need of credit cards, or stock market accounts. Just to put things in perspective, that is probably more that you will ever earn in maybe 50 lifetimes.

Arrested in Washington, Charley Ye now faces extradition to Mexico City, where the government is eager to sink its claws into Charley, for embarassing them last week, when he told the Mexican media that he would prove that his fortune was, in no small part, due to senior officials in the government.
Ye had apparently owned a pharmaceutical company in Mexico, the Unimed Pharm Chem de Mexico. He had also been fond of gambling, visiting Las Vegas numerous times, and incurring a debt of over USD 125 million at various casinos.
