Up to $30,000 will get you the services of Frank Ahearn, a private eye who specializes in helping people disappear. He doesn’t help people trying to run from the law or out to fake their own death, so who does that leave:
I still go to bookstores sometimes and observe people reading about offshore banking. I’m not looking for clients, I just do it for fun. It’s usually men in their forties or fifties who dream about leaving all their responsibilities behind. There is something romantic about the idea of starting a new life and walking away into the sunset, but for most people it’s just a daydream.[via Mr. Kottke]
