I am going to let the investigation progress before making any guesses, so I'm only going to note two things:
1. People enter into contracts they wish they hadn't all the time. And when they want to get out of them, they pay money whether (as appears to be the case here) contractually or extra-contractually. Clearly Jeff's annuity had a value a lot greater than $30,000, but that was (apparently) the deal.
2. Bobbie's comment about making less than Jeff is (if accurate) a bald faced lie. |
