joeatmanila Posted December 29, 2010 Posted December 29, 2010 They will get nothing from it.He did not took money to give women. He took money to take him to a certain city where he could negotiate himself whatever he wanted to do. Same as if they would send him to Germany or Holland etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
