It seems inconvenient to need a sledge hammer to get at your go money.
Osteen (or any fictional HBO prosperity gospel preacher) doesn’t need this amateur crap for his go money. He can afford accountants. He can have as many emergency accounts as he wants in as many countries as he wants. He could put $100K and a bunch of fake IDs in safe deposit boxes in banks in every state in the US and Mexico and every province in Canada.
I get it, everybody thinks he’s a crook. But in the US, his grift is perfectly legal and he doesn’t benefit from doing something weird with the money in the collection plate that people are just giving him tax free.
He may very well be invested in something crooked. But he’s got lawyers and accountants and they’re going to hide his crooked investments with shell corporations and offshore accounts and bullshit like that.
