A small selection of just some of the recent high-profile incidents to illustrate that SoCal/San Gabriel Valley is the financial engine of the joint CCP-cartel fentanyl epidemic
📍 Arcadia: CCP mayor
📍 Temple City: Chinese drug money laundering
📍 Irvine: Chinese money laundering/Sinaloa Cartel
📍 Bell Gardens & Downey: Chinese drug money laundering
📍 Rowland Heights & Diamond Bar: two CA safe houses used by key cartel money launderer Zhi Dong Zhang (Sinaloa + CJNG)
The vast number of Chinese students in the US are part of the machinery: a large (270k) ready-made money mule network to break down transactions to smaller amounts, with some of the drug proceeds even laundered into US tuition
California real estate is another key avenue (CA is the most favored destination for Chinese buyers, 70% of whom pay all cash)
Wanying Zhang's background (USC student turned realtor) notably involved both of these avenues

The CCP agent arrested at LAX recently who worked as a realtor in Orange County was also involved with Chinese money laundering networks in southern California
She's linked to another Chinese national with a construction business in Irvine who laundered Sinaloa Cartel drug money

The original Škoda 130 LR won the 1986 Turkish Rally Group B!
Šárka 105 RS is inspired by this legend, and soon you can win the 1989 Malden Islands Cup with it!

En el año 1865, San Juan Bosco soñó que había un hombre alto, de color negro y con cuernos, que tenía en su mano "una linterna mágica" con la cual entretenía a los jóvenes
A través de esa "linterna mágica", los jóvenes podían ver cosas divertidas, partidos de fútbol que se habían perdido, pueblos lejanos, libros, familiares, amigos, vacaciones que habían tenido, dinero que les debían, y hasta "escenas pecaminosas", entre otras cosas
Don Bosco relató que este dispositivo los entretenía tanto que alejaba a estos jóvenes de los sacramentos, especialmente de la comunión
Este texto se encuentra bien documentado y disponible para el que quiera leerlo, en G. B. Lemoyne, Memorie Biografiche di San Giovanni Bosco, vol. VIII, p. 110.

a decadência cultural das Américas nos últimos 100 anos aconteceu exatamente por essa mudança onde a classe baixa deixa de tentar imitar a elite pra se encaixar na sociedade e passa a exaltar e romantizar a própria miséria e mediocridade através da arte e da política

My top 10 mistakes in my trading career. What to avoid to make sure you don’t make the same mistakes as I did:
1. Inverse/leveraged ETF’s have DECAY. The longer you hold, the longer you get punished.
2. Do not MARKET buy low volume stocks. Only limit orders. The spread will make you lose -3% right from the start if you market buy.
3. Investing in semi’s, electrical equipment, hardware, memory, is NOT diversified. It’s one single leveraged bet on one theme. Don’t fool yourself. They will all move the same.
4. If you have FOMO, do NOT go all-in. Start small. 1/5 position size. Then add more once you realize you were acting like an idiot.
5. BUY when others get stopped-out. Look at obvious stop-loss areas. Buy there instead.
6. Don’t do anything drastic or crazy. Always do it small first. Markets are topping? Don’t sell, just trim. Markets bottoming? Don’t go all-in, build slowly. Markets can keep going up or down for a VERY long time.
7. Stocks grind up slowly. Stocks fall fast. Don’t let your emotions make you stupid.
8. TRIM when everyone is happy. And buy more defensive stocks.
9. BUY when everyone is sad. And buy more high growth tech stocks.
10. Individual stocks do NOT matter. It’s the entire portfolio working as a system that matters. Which ones are the superstars? Which ones are the role players? Which one is the rookie? Build your system and team around your strengths.
