Thought I'd follow up on this story:  The lady has been to the states twice now.  Seems my friend manages to get his Ukrainian ladies visitor visas rather easily - suspect it helps that she left her kid behind waiting for her.

I never met the lady, but my wife did.

After the last trip, my friend sent her home with a Visa card to simplify covering expenses.  She and her brother spent $14,000 on it...

Friend has dropped her.  *sigh*  Hasn't talked to me much though.  He is back in Ukraine trying again.

I guess she took the lump sum payment rather than the annuity.

If she had been thinking long term, she could have gotten MUCH more!!
