re: Ostrich meat

I had employee who was good at what he did, but not the brightest guy in the world. Due to his wife's illness he had a lot of financial problems, so I was able to find a reason to get him a nice bonus. Then he told me his was going to invest it in ostrich eggs, I never heard of such a thing, so I asked him to let me check it out before he gave anyone and money.

Of course, I quickly found out it was a scam and begged him not to waste that money on the stupid eggs. He did it anyway because his 'smart' brother-in-law was into it. He lost every cent.
