Hello everyone! Help me find a movie.  
I think it’s an American film from the late 80s or early 90s.  
The main character is a con artist who was raised by a swindler—either his father or adoptive father—according to his own principles. I remember that the main character spent a long time collecting his own blood to later stage a murder, making it look like his body was dumped in salt mines. In reality, he escaped with all the money.  
I also remember that the hero was young, rode a sports motorcycle, and lived in a single-story house.  
At the end of the movie, instead of credits, they show us his father’s dogma.
