Laws are not meant to be broken but that doesn't mean they can't be bent or twisted a little bit to perfectly fit a given scenario. Seeking out legal loopholes is a big part of a lawyer's job. They get paid massive amounts of money to use their eagle eyes to find that one tiny clause that'll make a big difference to their clients' lives, and often bank accounts.
We've heard of billionaires using loopholes to get out of paying taxes, or even criminals exploiting an unexpected loophole to get out of jail free. But there are some perfectly legal ways for ordinary people to beat the system too, as we discovered while reading through an intriguing online thread.
Someone had asked lawyers to share some of the most interesting laws or loopholes they've encountered on the job. And legal experts weren't afraid to speak up. No less than 5,000 comments came pouring in. Some were clever, others absurd and a few were actually entertaining.
