From a few years ago but I found this quite interesting. This guy earned $2.5 million per month in prison. He probably had no idea: "Sentenced to a 40-month federal prison term in 2009 for his role in a tax evasion conspiracy involving offshore American accounts, former Swiss banker Bradley Birkenfeld elicited sympathetic comments from some observers who said the hefty sentence was likely to discourage other whistleblowers from cooperating with the government." "But the former UBS AG employee's situation has recently taken a significant turn for the better. Now 47 and out of prison, he is to receive a $104 million Internal Revenue Service whistleblower award for his work in helping the feds pursue over $5 billion in unpaid taxes on unreported assets at Zurich-based UBS and other offshore banks" http://www.abajournal.com/news/article/ex-banker_birkenfeld_gets_104m_for_ubs_case_cooperation_may_be_biggest_us_w/ http://www.abajournal.com/news/article/ex-banker_birkenfeld_...
