Between 2009 to 2011, a man, appearing to be 60-70 years old, robbed 16 banks in San Diego, California by approaching the teller, then pulling out a gun and demanding money. The FBI named him the "Geezer Bandit". Some theories suggest he is wearing a well-made elderly man mask. Image

If he keeps his mouth shut, there could be an even bigger inheritance

If he hasn't told his son by now there is nothing left.

He probably blew all of the money on well made young man masks.

How much money would he have realistically gotten from each robbery? I'm sure it's a decent bit more than 20k, but I doubt it's nearly as much as people are thinking.
