I know, I know. These are really moot questions. The guy is obviously someone who has some serious issues with monetary reality -- the relative value of money. I just cannot believe how intellectually bereft some people in this society are.

This story is, frankly, sad and a bit disturbing on many levels.

And I am left to wonder about this man's mental capacity as well. He was released from jail so I hope that it was determined that he is neither a threat to society or himself. I am also left to wonder if he was told that the check was valid and whether or not he believed it to be true.

I remember years ago some friends and I encountered a young man whom they seemed to know but I did not. They began to tell him about homosexual fantasies that another friend of ours had with him and he believed every word that they told him. He became so angry that I feared he would become violent toward our friend who had no idea what was being said in jest. I told the young man that they were joking and he became instantly relieved. But he believed everything that was told to him as if he had no concept of the possibility to be deceived or lied to. So there are people out there who will believe all that you say because they have not the capacity to know better.

I am unsure if that is the case here with the 360 billion dollar check. Fuller may have been high, or he may have been drunk, or he may just be that ignorant: who knows?

It's true he may not have any concept regarding monetary value.
For all we know he may be a Real Life Rappin' Rainman .

Q: How much is a recording studio?

Wow, so that's what Leo Wanta looks like.

Heck you have to call, ahead now days to make sure that the bank has enough cash if you're taking out a tidy sum. Say $5,000 + in a smaller branch.

Proof hes actually dumber then he looks.

Fuller now faces charges of fraud, unlawfully carrying a weapon and possession of marijuana. Officers reported finding less than two ounces of marijuana and a .25-caliber handgun and magazine in his pockets.

While in a patrol car, police said, Fuller blurted out that he is starting his own record label and his girlfriend's mother gave him the money to help him out.

He was gansta.

This guy sounds like he could fit in here in Dayton. There's plenty of young men just like him around town, especially third and main st.

$$$

All in a days work...

He had 3 strikes against him and they let him out?!?!?
Let's see this again in slow motion...
1. He commits bank fraud.
2. He has a substantial amount of drugs on him
3. he has a loaded gun on him.

He made bail?!?!?
Who is more retarded?

I would've asked for it in change.
250 billion in quarters
80 billion in dimes
25 billion in nickels
5 billion in pennies
Then I'd never have to worry about the soda machine not taking my ratty dollar bill ever again. Man! That would be so cool!

Even dumber than this "criminal" is the bank that had him arrested. What kind of threat is this poor guy to society? If I was the teller and got a check like that I'd just laugh. They're taking themselves far too seriously.

Well, I guess at least from a business perspective he was looking for an investment.
I'm sure most his homies would much rather spend the cash on liabilities.
