bailout
Have you ever sweated through a loan interview, hoping that the banker understands your situation and will realize that you really are going to be responsible with your money and not only invest it in the areas the loan stipulates, but return the loan in a timely fashion? Have you then been granted the loan, only to spend it all on pop-tarts and kool-aid? And you have to go back to the banks and explain why all your receipts are from the local convenience store, and that though you can't repay the loan, it's okay, you'll get to it?
Financial manager Marcus Schrenker took the idea of a bailout very literally on Monday when he jumped out of his private plane after phoning in a fake distress call. Schrenker claimed that his window had imploded and that he was bleeding profusely, but when military jets were scrambled to aid the pilot, they discovered a dark cockpit with the door open. The plane flew nearly 200 miles on autopilot from Alabama, where Schrenker ditched, to Florida, where his plane crashed into a swampy area very close to homes.
