how much are you worth?

The Gazette had a hilarious article this morning about an informant to the RCMP who told them that he was offered 300,000$ for the life of one Paul Martin, Finance Minister in 2003. Vincent Brown, an accused cocaine trafficker said he didn't do it because "I felt I was being set up." hhahahaha

Aside from the fact that a)why would you hire a drug dealer to kill someone to y)what would you benefit from killing Paul Martin, my question is z)he's only worth 300,000$?

I'd like to think I'm worth at least a couple of G's on the black market...
