Matt Levine put this as a great idea for a lucrative job in his Bloomberg column (where hedge fund can be replaced with any company):

> Take a job at a hedge fund.

> Get handed an employment agreement on the first day that says “you agree not to disclose any of our secrets unless required by law.”

> Sign. Take the agreement home with you.

> Circle that sentence in red marker, write “$$$$$!!!!!” next to it and send it to the SEC.

> The SEC extracts a $10 million fine.

> They give you $3 million.

> You can keep your job! Why not; it’s illegal to retaliate against whistleblowers. Or, you know, get a new one and do it again.
