He forges art, nets 100m+ euros, goes to prison for 3 years. I spend 40 years at a job I'd rather not be at, lucky to retire with 1m+ euros. Leaves a sour taste.
You can still pick up a brush. 3 years in prison is nothing to sneeze at. It's a matter of ethics, after all, if all you want to look at is the eventual outcome we could all be bank robbers but most people prefer another life.
