Criminal Mastermind of the day

So, this guy's brother dies and he decides to impersonate the brother to collect his pension. He goes merrily along this way for 26 years.

But then he repeatedly fails to pay a minor debt. The police catch him.

The say he collected at least $119,400 over the entire period. That works out to about $4,600 per year. Wow. Was it worth it?
