    When I want to transfer money between bank accounts, I either use my bank's website or go there and ask the first employee I see. They even have specific account managers that I can talk to on a walk-in basis. At no point am I like "wow this is complex. Wish I had a CIA paedophile to help me push three buttons."

      There are various fees and regulations involved in the US for transferring anything above $10,000. You and I are normal people, so we've never had to worry about taxes involved in large money transfers. It sounds like Epstein was helping Chomsky avoid IRS attention.

            IIRC Epstein's cover story was that he was a hedge fund manager, so if we assume the best about :chompsky: then we could say that he simply thought he was depositing and withdrawing money from the account Epstein managed. Of course you don't have to assume the best...
