| $290,000 speeding ticket
Quote:
A Swiss millionaire has been handed down a record speeding fine of $290,000 (£180,000) by a court.
The man was reportedly caught driving a red Ferrari Testarossa at 137km/h (85mph) through a village.
The penalty was calculated based on the unnamed motorist's wealth - assessed by the court as $22.7m (£14.1m) - and because he was a repeat offender.
It is more than double Switzerland's previous record speeding fine - handed to a Porsche driver in Zurich in 2008.
In the latest case, the motorist was clocked speeding 57km/h (35mph) faster than the limit, according to the cantonal court in St Gallen, eastern Switzerland.
"The accused ignored elementary traffic rules with a powerful vehicle out of a pure desire for speed," the court said in its judgement.
Swiss media reported that the man owns a villa with five luxury cars, including the Ferrari.

Shelling out a few hundred here doesn't seem that bad now.

This system won't work for all the rich kids in the lower mainland with no wealth of their own but live off their parents.

There are enough countries that for a couple hundred grand you can get citizenship. With a little bit of work your money will be so well hidden that it would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars for them to actually prove your wealth and what you actually own.
