3.5 million dollar house and ten grand in taxes WTF?
---------------------------------------------------------------
Mohamed Ammar said the banker attacked him Dec. 22 with a 2½-inch blade and used racial slurs after a 40-mile ride from New York to the banker’s $3.4 million Darien, Connecticut home.
Jennings, who had attended a bank holiday party at a boutique hotel in Manhattan before hailing the cab, refused to pay the $204 fare upon arriving in his driveway, the driver said. When Ammar threatened to call the local police, Jennings said they wouldn’t do anything to help because he pays $10,000 in taxes, according to a report by the Darien police department.

I looked up the street, it's unlikely that's a 3.4m home. Another article values it at 2.3m.

I think I agree with you. After thinking about it, I doubt he even knows what his taxes are, probably the wife pays them.

I believe the exchange with the driver went something like this:
D. That will be $204 sir.
B. FU, I'm not paying.
D. Sir, you can not fail to pay me. I am a hard working immigrant who needs this payment to survive.
B. FU, I'm to BIG TO FAIL. Get the $204 from the tax payers. If your going to live in America learn how the system works!

Circa 50's house, probably a significant reno, including expansion.
Sold for 3.65m, 2005.
Taxes (2010) - 28k+.

I think we can all agree that he was an idiot.
Yellow cabs have cc readers. So pay the guy whatever, 300, 400 and then report him later on to taxi commission once he's out of the car - or even get take it up with cc company. Stupid to get into confrontation.

I think it's the morgan stanley way not to pay when you think you have a bad deal..
Dec. 17 (Bloomberg) — Morgan Stanley, the securities firm that spent more than $8 billion on commercial property in 2007, plans to relinquish five San Francisco office buildings to its lender two years after purchasing them from Blackstone Group LP near the top of the market.
“This isn’t a default or foreclosure situation,” Barnes said. “We are going to give them the properties to get out of the loan obligation.”

2 1/2" blade? come on. Hard to believe the guy pulled a knife with 2 1/2" blade. ok this guy from MS sounds like a @ss but, I find this guy Mohameds story not believable. First, what WS banker carries a knife? And, I'd say if a WS banker carried a knife it would be bigger that 2 1/2"s .. come on look how big their watches are.

2 1/2 inch blade sounds about right. Less a weapon and more a utility tool. In this case it's weapon function proved more than sufficient. I'm giving up my 10 inch Bowie in exchange for the 2 1/2 inch Swiss Army 'office' knife.
2 1/2 blade
Sissor
staple remover
Magnifying glass
Bottle cap remover/screwdriver
phillips head screwdriver
tool that allows you to steal from everyone, keep the money and have the taxpayer make up the loss.(I think it's called the lawyer tool)
Tooth pick

Morgan Stanley's bankers can't catch a break...

She was ready for the big time. Just the other day, in fact, Gristina/Scotland was sitting down at the office of her friend and business associate, a Morgan Stanley employee, to hear his plan for “expanding her operation through the Internet.”
