Why was he obsessing over the money and the 100k? As if that THE big story?
Because the media was asking him if it was suspicious and he legitimately was taken aback by the question. The media wanted it to be a "clue," and he was like, "Puhleeze. A $100k foreign wire is no big deal. Stop playing Jason Bourne over here."
It would be like if some reporters asked you, "Isn't it highly unusual and suspicious activity that you applied for over FIFTY credit cards in one year?!" and you would be like, "Oh my goodness, you guys are so out of your element. No!" And then they would hock you again, "But fifty?!" and you would be like, "I bet you guys carry a balance, don't you?"
Anyway, this guy is genuine.
