Money for murder, get out jail $
Here's a fictional but credible piece I ran here 4 years ago. Many Nomads know crimes against people and property are often punished by jail or cash
based on a minimum wage formula for a hypothetical working stiff in Distrito Federal in Mexico City.

Jorge, this is another file that I can't view since I upgraded to windows 10. Windows wants me to buy the correct version, or enter a product code
that I have no idea how to find.
Thanks for posting anyway!

Look up OpenOffice.org and never use windows suite software again.

114,400 pesos was about 11,440 dollars +/- 10%
What I'm doing at work is so secret, even I don't know what I'm doing!

I use LibreOffice, which like OpenOffice is free software that will open Word documents as well as saving them. In this case I opened up the original
and saved it as a "docx" file, which is attached. Hopefully it will work for you.

Thanks Pablo. Ancient writer, ancient computer and matching software. I have some old stories in here somewhere that are in cuneiform.
