AFAIK a Maltese passport is easy enough to obtain with a bit of cash.

I worked with someone who moved their entire workload into notes, email, spreadsheets, browsing, embedded sametime, you name it he used notes for it.

I was part of an acquisition, company was performing well against bigger players and IBM came in and threw a load of money at the owners.

Once we completed the transref of business we were paid massive retention bonuses, managers got company cars etc.

Not one sale of the product was made in the next 6 years and the business unit closed down. Previous CEO founded a competitor when his non compete clause ended and the customer base IBM had bought moved.

This is not an isolated occurrence.
