        i mean…it is, that is 100% how every bank/finance/investing group works (yes, even the one supposededly protecting your capital. to the tourist-bourgeois here pretending they’re workers)…

        nobody, and i do mean nobody, managing your money for you gives a single fuck about your $…they’re using it to further their own aims in bull markets. this is a country of gamblers and the stock market is the biggest casino around, pulling out 200-300%+ of your working capital yoy is incredibly easy to do when you know how it works. it’s laughably easy to print $ in a bull market

        the entire world uses the US’s unregulated financial markets (and the massively under-educated workforce, rich and poor, paying into it mindlessly) as easy exit liquidity, that’s arguably the only reason why most of the world actually puts up with our shit…not our bloated military but how easy it is for their rich to take $ from us and our rich

          Yes, with a 36 month sentence. For all of those crimes. After he fucked up a sting operation.

          The biggest lesson out of the whole movie was: Don’t get too greedy once the fed catches you, just take the plea deal and you’ll be set for life.

          Which is a pretty fucking sad and unjust state of affairs.
