A lot of people hide their money in overseas accounts...

...in the Cayman Islands and in Swiss bank accounts. It's really not that big of a deal. Most folks don't care.

However, only one of them is running for President. And that is a big deal.

Actually, it's not really well hidden. Look at my Visa or Mastercard statements...it's all there. Nothing hidden. $72 at the pool bar...$130 for a romantic dinner at a beachside restaurant.
