A divorce would be cheaper. Just sayin'

Ahmed Boyer wanted some money. Needed might be a better word. So he did what any other desperate guy would do. He robbed a bank. 

The problem is, the money did not last very long. When I say "not very long", the time frame I have in mind is somewhat less than 24 hours. 

Should he press his luck or reduce his expenses?

Press his luck. So Boyer went on and robbed a second bank. 

Oops, not enough money.

So he robbed a third bank. 

It wasn't enough money, but it was going well. So he went for a fourth bank.

One might assume he used my handy crime-planning services for the first three since he had not been caught. But on the fourth one, he was caught. Somehow, his super-clever plans went awry and he was caught. Not by a sting operation. Not by great detective work. No, an off-duty cop ended his crime spree.

So now you are wondering why, Ahmed, why? Why rob four banks? What possible reason? Did you have a loved one who needed an operation you could not afford? Did you need money to save a flagging business? Did he need a lot of money because his fiance was getting out of control with wedding planning?

Of course you know that was it. 

"The wedding was costing a lot of money and I realised I would never be able to pay for it," he told the court.

Wonder if his marriage now will be to a different gender than the one he anticipated.
