Wasco
He had a nifty sleight of hand. Rodrigo, or Rigo as he was known by his friends, had stolen several wallets and purses of visitors to his island nation over the past five years. Only twenty-two, it was as if he had been bestowed the gift of stealing by the gods. He had never been caught and he had Francs, Euros, Dollars, Yen, and even Pesos in his souvenir drawer. He spent only what he needed and the rest he saved for the day that he retired. He'd heard of retirement planning from some couple from Philadelphia when he was 18 and decided that it was a good idea, right after he stole $125 from the wife's purse. Their money made up the initial deposit into his retirement fund.
