dw31583, you are paranoid loon. last year you repeatedly argued that brazilian tax lawyers were somehow wrong (even though you don't know portuguese and never read a brazilian law in your life) that CFC rules existed in brazil for regular folks, hence people with offshore companies would be...

The EWZ put trade, I'm counting on a correlation between EWZ and the REITs. Its probably not that high of a correlation but it should be significant enough that if EWZ were to fall off a cliff, the REITs would as well. Which would enable me to buy my housing assets (and pay my rent off their...

I decided to calculate my exposures after this 'run on everything' that this market has had so I can have an idea of where I stand As of now I'm in 17.2% BR USD bond 2024 11.2% EWZ 10.7% PSH fund 10% GLD 5.9% 15y UST 4.2% 30y UST 3.8% OAK stock 3% BR REITs 2% BRKB 1.8% EWZS 1.4% CNX bond 0.65%...

A good tool to supplement an investor reading list is Google Now recommended articles. I have been impressed by the articles they suggest to me. Usually things that I'm interested in but normally would never find (because they are from sites I dont visit). Maybe thats because I use chrome and...

when you wire the money out of IB, it will go to your personal bank account. That account (if located in the UK) will have some reporting with HMRC

That 94 crime bill and 9/11 seem to have sent the US down to a dark path in law enforcement and surveillance. Now with these anti-cop prostests, wikileaks, Snowden, etc people seem to have reached their limit of how much they will take. Thats a good thing. Maybe they will reverse that trend

US citizens can still do some things so I would encourage anyone who lives there to watch this video. You could save you from huge trouble It applies to almost any country but this seems to be specially important in semi Police states

In Brazil, you rarely go to prison before having exhausted all the appeals. There are 3 or 4 levels of appeals available (in addition to your first trial). Juris are rarely used, so as a result, you will have a number of judges (the appeals usually involve a panel of judges) reviewing your case...

http://www.wsj.com/articles/is-america-facing-a-police-crisis-1469828089 Interesting article. This is one of the reasons I wouldn't consider living in the US. Law enforcement there is just too agressive. When you combine that with the huge criminal sentences, the US is one of the countries...

I knew SureTrader weren't even going to a cent from me when I saw that it was an offshore broker that charged a $100 wire out fee. This was a huge red flag. Specially given no SIPC

Brazil just raised 30 year USD money at 5.8%. Why I have no ideia (country has over $350B+ in USD reserves) but it goes to show how much sentiment has improved

No. I have never set foot in the US

I'd bet that even he would admit it was a mistake, he has said he is done with public shorts. Even if Icahn and others didn't gang up to try to squeeze him, just the risk that a crazy distributor would try to kill you or your family makes it not worth the risk. Specially in the US where anyone...

His thesis does make sense, which is why I don't think the stock is a easy call here. However, when the FTC comes out and say most people in HLF are chasing a business opportunity and the company "does not offer participants a viable retail-based business opportunity" it certainly should give...

You seem to know a lot about statistics, so, how many distributors one would need to talk to and survey before being able to make accurate conclusions about the distribution population as a whole? Could someone just show up at their local club and that is all it takes? Or should the person...

He had also some comments on how the short thesis is racist on twitter and I believe on his blog. I dont think he is being impersonated in the FTC site
