The economics of robbing banks, crime does pay – but not very much
Don’t seek a career in robbing banks because it’s really not worth it. Benefits are on average low (about 19.700 USdollars per person per raid). Risks are high. If you feel you must rob a bank, recruit extra members of your gang, don’t use fire-arms, stay away from bank branches with metal security screens. Do study econometrics before becoming a criminal.
