highly levered , but limited there isn't an unlimited supply of people getting jailed so there will be limits to where you can compound
I'll bet in most cities there are established bail bonds dealers who have a monopoly (or first dibs) on this stuff. I don't think its an even playing field like selling puts in the stock market.
And apparently bail bonds is a legitimate form of investment: https://www.investopedia.com/terms/b/bail-bond.asp The guy is not exaggerating.
That's a question for Dog the Bounty Hunter. But my question is what if the guy who skipped bail were in collusion with the bounty hunter to screw the bondsman. The guy can pretend to skip bails for the bounty hunter to earn a fee to catch him and then share the fee with the bounty hunter. The bondsman would've been screwed and won't even know it.
%% LOL. Last WSJ article i read on the subject- many states are doing away with bail-dont remember the number. BUT TN...... must still have it ; see plenty of bail bond ads
