[ WP ] A wealthy dragon tired of hoarding his gold starts his own bank

A front, you understand, is a store or shop that appears legal at first glance, but allows criminal organizations filter through illegally obtained assets. 
 
 
 A gang is a group of individuals that obtains their assets through coercion and fear, often grabbing out and defending a territory that they hold influence over. 
 
 
 An underground syndicate is a large group of person that engage actively in organized crime, often controlling large swathes of territory with great or domineering sway. 
 
 
 What these groups of people and organizations have in common is that they steal, cheat and use violence to achieve the goal of enriching themselves in greater, and increasing wealth. 
 
 
 Now, a dragon opening a *bank*... That's something else entirely. 
 
 
 I would n't say that it was *stealing* per say, but the dragon's rates were a little bit too affordable. When his branch opened up as a trading house in the Kingdom, it was well known that the backer was more than mythical. *Golden Hordes* counting house was n't just a place for the mathematically and account minded, it was the home to a newer breed of criminal. 
 
 
 Offering loans at low interest rates, large sums of money suddenly available to peasants of the lowest class to Dukes, counts and barons of nobility, anything became possible. 
 
 
 If you could pay your bills. 
 
 
 One could not do business with the *Golden Horde Banking Company* in the Kingdom of Thuringa without incurring heavy penalties. All you could do is hope that when the bailiffs came, you could sit down, have a drink and relax. 
 
 
 He might have started his life as a humble dragon, but he ended up becoming a true financial monster by the end of his reign. 
 
 
 While it the *Golden Horde Banking Company* had it's humble origins from a dragon, today, you know it as Goldman Sachs, a world class investment banking company.
