How the Wealthy Genuinely Make Money, Beating Probability Based (like Casino, Lottery, and Sports Betting) Games, and More

- in this post we'll examine how wealthy people genuinely make money:
- control the laws. Block things that make things more efficient monetarily and represent competition to you:

An analysis shows that Intuit, H&R Block, and other private companies and advocacy groups for large tax preparation businesses, as well as proponents in favor of electronic free file, have reported spending $39.3 million since 2006 to lobby on "free-file" and other matters. Federal law doesn't require domestic lobbyists to itemize expenses by specific issue, so the sums are not limited to free-file.
Intuit has spent $25.6 million since 2006 on lobbying, H&R Block about $9.6 million and the conservative Americans for Tax Reform roughly $3 million.
Derrick Plummer, a spokesman for Intuit, said taxpayers can already file their taxes for free and there are online free-file programs available to some people. Individuals of all income levels can submit their returns for free via the mail.
A "direct-to-IRS e-file system is a solution in search of a problem, and that solution will unnecessarily cost taxpayers billions of dollars," he said. "We will continue unapologetically advocating for American taxpayers and against a direct-to-IRS e-file system because it's a bad idea."
Starting in 2006, an agreement between the IRS and some commercial tax preparation companies, known as the Free File Alliance, prevented the IRS from creating its own free tax return filing system. In exchange, tax preparation companies agreed to provide free services to taxpayers making $73,000 or less.
The provision that barred the IRS from exploring a free-file system expired in 2019, but the Free File Alliance agreement to provide free services for low-income taxpayers remains in effect.

Two Monkeys Were Paid Unequally: Excerpt from Frans de Waal's TED Talk

fairness experiment dogs
Dogs have an intuitive understanding of fair play and become resentful if they feel that another dog is getting a better deal, a new study has found. The study, in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, looked at how dogs react when a buddy is rewarded for the same trick in an unequal way.
Dogs Understand Fairness, Get Jealous, Study Finds : NPR
https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=97944783
Dogs have their own innate sense of fairness and did not learn this from humans as previously believed, a new study has concluded.
In fact the research suggested the opposite may be true – that dogs have learned greater acceptance of inequitable treatment as a result of their close relationship with people.
In tests, wolves and dogs would both refuse to take part if they received no reward for pressing a buzzer while a partner animal got one for doing so. The same was true if they received a lower quality prize.
It was thought that dogs had learned the importance of equality – seen as a sophisticated trait found in humans and some primates – during the domestication process, but the study found the wolves displayed a greater reluctance to take part once they realised what was going on.

monkey fair experiment
The piqued monkey, in a nonhuman-primate sort of way that looks pretty sophisticated, grasps the situation's unfairness. And it's not just this capuchin monkey, but others as well, as explained by Sarah Brosnan and de Waal in their article from 2003 called "Monkeys reject unequal pay.").
Watching those two monkeys in the video, I feel it's OK to be a little less hard on myself for any verbal outbursts about unfairness — maybe it's a primate thing to react in a peeved way when our expectations of fairness are violated.
Of course, the human world contains genuinely significant injustices — too many of them. Such inequities are no laughing matter. But I'm not thinking about those here; I mean only the small injustices we all experience on occasion.
And in that context, watching those capuchins makes me laugh, and helps me to get over myself.

- employ massive amounts of deception/fakery. Most printers, game consoles, prestige/luxury vehicles, high end defense equipment, etc... are cheap up front (possibly even sold for a loss) but once you factor in the cost of ink or toner, games, maintenance, etc... that's where the money is made. Note most price match guarantees have many clauses which often make them very hard to actually take advantage of but they often help to bring people into the retailer in question. Cover up use of dodgy/slave/child labour by not covering it in the media through the selective use of  national security laws?

- control the flow of income and access to assets by never promoting or employing people who can challenge you? Only promote useful idiots as they can't really take over from you as they're incapable. Notice how their are no laws which state that you must hire the best available candidate which means lots of organisations just hire who they like a lot of the time (I've seen this many and been on the receieving end many times)?

- make extensive use of useful idiots. Patent other people's ideas? Commercialise other people's ideas without giving them any credit? Good examples of this are academic community who get paid very little for their ideas and research but businesses get paid heaps for simply commercialising it. Also, a lot of stuff in ICT world is often just rebadged/relabelled FOSS stuff? As long as you understand how capitalism works and are ruthless and understand how capitalism works you can make things work in your favour

Thereafter suppress and dispose of all other competition using any means necessary. Ironically, this method doesn't require you to be making profits beforehand and is highly inefficient but has been the core of what many FAANG companies have recently done...

Most people assume sky-high drug prices are unavoidable. But in 2022, Mark Cuban decided to test that belief by launching the Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drug Company, a pharmacy built on a blunt idea: sell generic medications at cost plus a transparent markup and show every customer exactly how pricing works.
The model was simple and radical. Take the manufacturer's price, add a fifteen percent markup, include a small pharmacy fee, then charge flat shipping. No hidden rebates. No mysterious middlemen. No inflated numbers that change depending on who is paying. For patients used to watching prices jump overnight, that transparency felt almost unreal.
What followed surprised even skeptics. Many drugs that once cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars a month suddenly dropped to a fraction of their original price. Prescriptions for diabetes, cancer care, heart disease, and infections became affordable for people who had spent years rationing pills or skipping doses entirely.
Cuban didn't build this to dominate a market. He built it to expose one. By openly publishing costs, the company forced a public conversation about how broken pharmaceutical pricing had become and how much of that pain was avoidable.
Today, the company offers more than 2,500 medications and has opened and continues expanding its own manufacturing facility in Dallas to push prices even lower. It is not a miracle cure for healthcare, but it is proof that change can begin with a single refusal to accept the system as it is.
Sometimes progress starts when someone simply decides the numbers should finally make sense.

- many government decisions make perfect sense once you understand the extremely high failure rate of smaller businesses and stability of corporate businesses who basically have an undeclared monopolies on making money? The other issues with the massive corporates is that they probably have a large say in purchases of assets/items as well in the local economy, may pay large amounts of tax, are so big that they may impact FOREX and share markets, superannuation, etc... Once you understand how we all fit together in an economy, it feels like we live in a reality based on illusion but many people don't seem to be aware of it?

In development economics, the middle income trap is a situation where a country has developed until GDP per capita has reached a middle level of income, but the country does not develop further and does not attain high income country status.[1] The term was introduced by the World Bank in 2007 who defined it as the "middle-income range" countries with gross national product per capita that has remained between $1,000 to $12,000 at constant (2011) prices.[2]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_income_trap
- many online simulations of rags to riches type situations aren't realistic? If you genuinely come from nothing you know that there is so much more you have to deal with. Being genuinely homeless is different, no education you can count on, no network that you can fall back on often, you face personal security issues constantly, hunger, illness, etc... Suspect the reason why many countries can't create economies that work properly for everyone is in part due to the fact that many people at the top don't genuinely know what it's like to be genuinely homeless or the difficulties that people at the bottom have to deal with?

- be willing to arbitrage anything. They say the economy is composed of products/assets and services. In reality, you're treating people in the same way as an asset/chattel though? In recruitment and management you're arbitraging people when you run a company or recruit them. For a recruiter, you're either taking a salary or fee when recruiting them or else you take a government subsidy to recruit them? As a manager, you're using an employee to do work for which you take a profit margin off the top. The lower the wage the more profit you can take for yourself and the company?

In Essai, Cantillon provided an advanced version of John Locke's quantity theory of money, focusing on relative inflation and the velocity of money.[56] Cantillon suggested that inflation occurs gradually and that the new supply of money has a localised effect on inflation, effectively originating the concept of non-neutral money.[57] Furthermore, he posited that the original recipients of new money enjoy higher standards of living at the expense of later recipients.[58] The concept of relative inflation, or a disproportionate rise in prices among different goods in an economy, is now known as the Cantillon Effect.[59][60] Cantillon also considered changes in the velocity of money (quantity of exchanges made within a specific amount of time) influential on prices, although not to the same degree as changes in the quantity of money.[61] While he believed that the money supply consisted only of specie, he conceded that increases in money substitutes—or bank notes—could affect prices by effectively increasing the velocity of circulating of deposited specie.[62] Apart from distinguishing money from money substitute, he also distinguished between bank notes offered as receipts for specie deposits and bank notes circulating beyond the quantity of specie—or fiduciary media—suggesting that the volume of fiduciary media is strictly limited by people's confidence in its redeemability.[63] He considered fiduciary media a useful tool to abate the downward pressure that hoarding of specie has on the velocity of money.[64]

- Make use of financial engineering. Once you understand how markets work if you can make any money maximise the gains through intelligent use of tax law, employment law, corporate/business/company law, leverage your capital, make intelligent use of whatever capital you have, etc... Remember just because it's legal doesn't mean it's ethical though?

'Your borrowing power will reduce'
Ms Megginson said, in practice, that means your "borrowing power will reduce by a maximum of 10 times the value of annual HECS repayments", which is nothing to sniff at.
"So, if your annual payments amount to $5000, your borrowing power will be reduced by $50,000," she said.
"But you could balance this out in other ways. If you know you have a HECS debt to include on your application, then working to pay off other debts like a credit card, personal loan, buy now pay later or a car loan could add some borrowing power back to your application."
The financial expert said that student loan debt isn't the only debt you should worry about when getting a mortgage, you also have to consider credit card debt.
"Many people don't realise that a credit card limit, not a credit card balance, impacts your loan application," she said.
"If you have a credit card limit of $10,000 but you only owe $2000, you could reduce your limit to $5000 and immediately boost your borrowing power.
"Education is key. Knowing how the bank reviews your application can help you take the steps you need to make your loan application as attractive as possible."

- if you think your life is difficult try to understand the numbers you'll see how difficult/awful the lives of people are in many countries? You can not fix this problem simply by giving money out or redistributing it. You have to change the underlying systems in play for it to work better? It's like some countries are in deep financial trouble but are lying about it in order to drive sentiment up and maintain things?

- fascinating watching certain geopolitical conflicts play out. Neither Russia, EU, US, China can really give Ukraine what it really needs and wants? Same with many African and South American countries. The correct play would be not to get to get involved in the conflict and get what you can or else hitch your cart once it's clear who is vastly superior? Never get into a conflict with near peer threats. Both sides just destroy one another as in World War I and World War II. You can only win when you're vastly superior which is what happened during colonial/imperial period

global gdp share history
The 19th century appears to be the key juncture when China and India declined and the West rose. Imperialism appears to be the most obvious answer given that before China was 'opened' in 1842 in the first Opium war, it had its greatest share of world wealth. Within a century of these interventions China went from 32% of the world's GDP to just under 5%.
In the graphic below, the area for each country represents the share of the world's wealth. The rise in the share of wealth by the US and Europe is of similar proportion to the decline in wealth of India and China. The total area shown represents the amount of wealth that the seven selected countries have collectively. Note the decline of collective wealth in the last century as the rest of the world has begun to take a greater share of the global economy.

us share of global gdp trend
https://ycharts.com/indicators/us_gdp_as_a_percentage_of_world_gdp
The following chart shows U.S. GDP as a percentage of global GDP from 1960 to 2014. For example, in 1960, U.S. GDP was $543 billion and global GDP was $1.367 trillion (based on current U.S. Dollars). Therefore, U.S. GDP was 40% of global GDP ($543 billion / $1.367 trillion). This remained stable for nearly a decade despite the distractions of the drug culture, free love, and a strong anti-establishment sentiment among American youth. In 1969, U.S. GDP was still producing 38% of global GDP, but the winds of change were beginning to blow. From 1968 to 1980, a period that included racial unrest, excessive inflation, the misery index, an oil embargo, gasoline shortages, auto manufacturing innovations (i.e. technology), and a host of social and economic challenges, the global significance of the U.S. economy had sharply declined. By 1980, America's contribution to the global economy had fallen to 26%. Enter President Reagan and supply-side economics.
During the first term of the Reagan administration, America's economic role in the world increased substantially, rising to 34% of global GDP by 1985. This was followed by another period of decline, which didn't improve until President Clinton's second term. By the time Clinton left office, U.S. contribution to global GDP was 32%. It was downhill from there. Today, U.S. GDP contributes only 22% of the world's economic output. What happened? Why has America's role in the global economy declined nearly 50% since 1960?

In 2010, a man walked into the Bellagio Casino in Las Vegas and handed over a stack of high-value chips. In less than a minute, the cashier gave him $20,000 in cash.
But there was a problem. The chips were fake.
What followed was one of the most precise casino scams in modern history. From a garage in the suburbs, Erik Morikawa, a handyman with no criminal record, began modifying $1 chips into $25,000 replicas, using nothing but paint, stickers, and a printer.
For eight months, he printed his own casino fortune and walked away a millionaire. Until greed, addiction, and surveillance brought everything crashing down.
This is The Counterfeit Chip Scheme That Made a Millionaire.

In today's documentary, we uncover how a single high-roller used the casino's own surveillance cameras to steal $32 million in plain sight. Witout card counting or table hacking. Just perfect information.
By exploiting an internal access flaw, an external team watched live casino feeds in real time, feeding flawless decisions straight to the player. There were no arrests, no public trial, and no money recovered. The man walked out, boarded a plane, and vanished, while the casino quietly rewrote its security systems forever.
This is the true story of how the house lost by seeing exactly what it sees.

In today's documentary, We'll see how a respected lawyer, businessman, and even a judo champion, became the mastermind of one of the most sophisticated casino scams ever exposed. This is the story of the Cutter Gang, a syndicate that used hidden cameras, flawless teamwork, and a baccarat loophole to steal over $20,000,000 from the world's most secure casinos in Macau, Las Vegas, and Manila.
From the first false shuffle scams in Asia, to the breakthrough cuff camera method that captured entire baccarat shoes, and finally to the dramatic bust at Casino Filipino in 2011, this documentary reveals how casinos were outsmarted, how the syndicate operated across borders, and how one mistake brought everything crashing down.
Discover how baccarat's simple cut procedure, meant to ensure fairness, became a casino weakness that professional cheats exploited for millions. Learn how surveillance, gaming regulators, and casino bosses fought back, and why the legend of the Cutter Gang still haunts the gambling world.

Is the British Government incompetent, or is it a criminal enterprise?
I am joined by sitting MP Rupert Lowe as he asks the ultimate question: "Is the state in the hands of organized crime?" From the billions missing in procurement contracts to the "sticky fingers" of the political class, Rupert argues that the British state has become the active enemy of its own people, and that the UK is sleepwalking into an Enron-style bankruptcy.
We also discuss the "institutional rot" destroying the nation, including the cover-up of the grooming gangs, the "Weimar" economics of money printing, and the deliberate destruction of the middle class. Rupert opens up about his split from Reform UK, the betrayal of the electorate by the "Uniparty," and why we only have until 2029 to save the country from total collapse.

Just two casino dealers and a shuffle, For 4 years, they pulled off the most brilliant casino scam in U.S. history, hitting 29 casinos across America and Canada, stealing over $7 million using nothing but a flaw in the way cards were shuffled. No cameras caught it, and no players ever suspected it.
Until one meeting in a Mississippi hotel room changed everything.
This is the full story of The Tran Organization, the FBI sting that took it down, and the secret casino loophole that made it all possible.

how does corporate lobbying impact share price
Abstract
We examine the relationship between lobbying expenditures and the market performance for sin stocks. Considering the benefits of lobbying spending (such as receiving bailouts during economic crises, preferential tax rates, government contracts, and tariffs), we conjecture that sin stocks invest more in lobbying than non-sin stocks, and that this strategy leads to higher market performance. Using a sample of US listed sin stocks, we find strong evidence that firms in controversial industries spend more money in lobbying activities. Additionally, our findings suggest that lobbying sin stocks enjoy higher average (annualized) returns than non-lobbying sin stocks. Moreover, we find that these lobbying sin firms enjoy a higher return when compared to a benchmark of non-sin stocks.
We also compared our sample of sin stocks to a sample of firms known by their outstanding CSR scores to allow for a sharp contrastf. Interestingly, our findings suggest that, when comparing between CSR and lobbying, lobbying activities seem to (positively) affect the market returns of sin stocks only, while CSR activities (positively) affect the returns of high CSR firms only.

- a lot of countries which depend on resource and asset price movements make sense now? If you can't depend on externalisation (to force favourable trade terms on other countries) and you depend on asset prices moving up then you're in huge trouble because you're at the mercy of global markets? You have to maintain the asset prices in question and their movement upwards (including FOREX as well possibly as well). You also have to balance it with redemption/liquidation of assets rate to ensure there's enough cash flow within the national economy to pay for essential goods? If you understand how subsidies boost and how loans/bonds are impacted and issues such as profit margin then you're stuck in a doom loop? Capitalism is always subject to boom/bust cycles if you can't externalise your issues as per colonialism/imperialism? If you look at most of the countries doing well they're often manipulating situations to their advantage but most don't realise it?

how many companies do share buyback
What's Fueling the Stock Buyback Boom?
Corporate America splurging on buybacks is nothing new. Share repurchases eclipsed dividends as a means of returning cash to shareholders 20 years ago in the US and have mostly led ever since. According to Aniket's research, roughly two thirds of the 1,202 current constituents of the Morningstar US Market Index repurchased shares over the last year. Twenty years ago, just 22% of companies in the index did buybacks.

which countries manipulate their currency
Treasury's "Monitoring List." As part of its semiannual report to Congress on the international economic and exchange rate policies of major U.S. trading partners, Treasury includes a "Monitoring List" of countries with exchange rate policies that merit close attention. In November 2024, the list included China, Germany, Japan, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, and Vietnam. Because the monitoring list garners attention, Congress might consider how the list is constructed, whether or not to require additional analysis of the countries on the list, and/or whether to require engagement with countries on the list.
China and ongoing transparency issues. Treasury has repeatedly noted China's lack of transparency around key features of its exchange rate mechanism, complicating analysis of China's policies. Legislation was introduced in the 118th Congress that would require the U.S. Executive Director at the IMF to advocate for greater transparency of China's exchange rate policies (H.R. 839/S. 4418).

define investing
Saving is a way to store money for when you need it in the near term, whereas investing is about acquiring growth assets or assets that generate income, with the aim of building your wealth over the long term. The key differences between both are defined by risk tolerance, timeline and personal financial goal. So, what does that mean?

- if you worked with/for larger organisations you'll realise it's similar to running government at times. Massive resources at your disposal but the overal targets are different? Massive outsourcing/competition theoretically allows for efficiency gains as long as the money dispensers can properly differentiate value for money vs just spending money. Other optimisations that you see for both nation states and larger enterprises/corporates are attempts to push price down of inputs and try to supply something for upper end. This leads to economies that are common to more developed countries which often specialise in luxury goods and expensive/advanced products? Ironically, this is where organised crime and colonliasm/imperialism seem so similar at times?

France is the 7th largest economy in the world, a nuclear power, and the home of luxury giants like LVMH. But beneath the glamour of Paris and the strength of its military lies a terrifying economic reality: France is structurally closer to the Soviet Union than it is to a modern capitalist democracy.
In this documentary, we expose the "French Command Economy." With government spending hitting 58% of GDP the highest in the developed world and a manufacturing base that has collapsed to just 9%, France is trapped in a spiral of debt, de-industrialization, and political paralysis.
We trace the history of this collapse, from General De Gaulle's "Dirigisme" and the fatal socialist experiment of 1981, to the rise of the "Nomenklatura"—the closed caste of ENA elites who run the country like a private club. We explain why the 35-hour work week paralyzed the workforce, how the "Luxury Trap" hides a hollow economy, and why the French government is now a hostage to its own people.
Is France a superpower, or just a nuclear-armed museum running on credit?
In this video, we cover:
The 58% Problem: Why the French State controls more of the economy than Communist China.
The Nomenklatura: How the ENA school created a ruling class of bureaucrats (Enarques) isolated from reality.
The 1981 Mistake:  How François Mitterrand's socialist pivot destroyed French competitiveness.
The Luxury Trap: Why selling handbags (LVMH, Hermès) cannot replace real industry.
The Hostage Crisis: How the "Street Veto" (Yellow Vests, Pension Protests) makes reform impossible.
The Debt Bomb: Why France's €3 Trillion debt pile is the biggest threat to the European Union.

Hence, the massive Useful Idiot Industrial Complex (UIIC) and Useful Idiot Support Network (UISN) in many former imperialist/colonialist countries? You can't outright ban smart and hard working people, groups, countries, etc... but you can exclude them via obscure rules and descriptions and a sea of fakery that filter the people and groups you want in and the people and groups you want out?

Terrance Watanabe was a successful businessman who inherited the Oriental Trading Company, a multi-million dollar empire. But his life spiraled out of control when he became addicted to gambling. In just one year, he lost $127 million at two Las Vegas casinos, earning the title of one of history's biggest gamblers. The casinos fueled his addiction with insane perks: a three-bedroom suite, $12,500 in monthly airfare, and $500,000 in gift shop credit. When he couldn't pay his debts, they sued him for $14.7 million—but Watanabe fought back, exposing how they exploited him with alcohol and drugs. This is the wild story of his rise, fall, and the legal battles that shook the gambling world.

Man Wins $27 Millions After Discovering Lottery Loophole
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NcYixKX2zWE
In today's documentary th Man Won Lottery 14 Times Using a Simple Math Trick, we'll discover the incredible true story of Stefan Mandel, a mathematical genius who won the lottery 14 times. This crazy true story takes you on a journey through Mandel's life, from his humble beginnings in Communist Romania to becoming a lottery legend.
Stefan Mandel, an economist, developed a groundbreaking formula to beat the lottery system every time he play that allowed him to significantly increase his chances of winning. This simple yet effective math trick, known as the "combinatorial condensation," reduced the number of possible lottery combinations, making it feasible to buy enough tickets to guarantee a win. Mandel's first major victory in Romania was just the beginning of his extraordinary success.
This mini-documentary delves into mandel's strategy when he refined his method and formed syndicates to fund his ambitious lottery ventures. His meticulous planning and relentless pursuit of success led to multiple jackpot wins, including the ultimate triumph in the Virginia State Lottery, where he executed a master plan to secure a $27 million prize.

Find the edge and bet the edge and then multiply/grind it out many times? Sports leagues which are competitive but have long odds for non-favourite are good places to take bets or ones where the odds are fair because you can hedge bets to increase chances of making money while reducing chances of losing money?

how often do favourites win the melbourne cup
1.
A favourite horse has won the Melbourne Cup 34 times out of 153 races. This means the favourite has a 22 per cent chance of winning.
Peter Hall, a professor in mathematics and statistics from the University of Melbourne, says that's a good result.
"If you choose a horse at random, the probability that it wins is 1/24 = 0.042; and if you put your money on the favourite, the probability of it winning is 34/153 = 0.22," he said.
"That's an increase by a factor of about 5.3 by simply noting which horse is the favourite, and that is not bad."
2.
The favourite has placed first, second or third in 46 per cent of all Melbourne Cup races.

How often does the favourite team in football win?
Let's consider the 2018-2019 season. At InnerDrive HQ, we analysed every match in the 2019-19 Premier League season and found that favourites only win 57.9% of the time and, surprisingly, lose 42.1% of their matches. The graph looks like this:
We think it's fair to say that many would expect favourites to win much more than they lose. However, we didn't expect the difference between the number of times the favourites won and lost to be so small. So, why do the favourites lose, and how could they win more often?

which sports bookies provide fair odds
The concept of market efficiency becomes crucial when evaluating whether overrounds represent fair pricing or exploitation. In highly efficient markets like IPL cricket, low overrounds typically reflect genuine competition and fair value, while excessive margins in less popular sports may indicate opportunities for bookmaker shopping or market avoidance.

- notice how happy/competitive countries are generally in a "sweet zone" for currency. Makes it easier easier to have a balanced economy, healthy debt, good growth, etc? I have to some more work I obviously have an interest in AI/ML and automated government/businesses. Ironically, primitive versions of such things are pretty simple and could easily be built by basically combining a bunch of my scripts related to this topic to look for various alternative solutions to problems? What I also didn't realise is that the jobs of a lot of public servants/Mandarins may actually be redundant owing because they're limited in what they can do, have limited toolboxes, etc? Makes sense given the style of education/indoctrination/colonial overhang (https://dtbnguyen.blogspot.com/2020/05/education-or-indoctrination-random.html) that we have? You can see this by the relatively small number of solutions for similar problems globally via some scripts I've been working on? I wonder how close you can get to responsible version of direct democracy you can get (completely open data, decision trees, decision selection, etc...)? Aside from crazy nude women (http://dtbnguyen.blogspot.com/2022/01/country-gdp-growth-correlation-checker.html) I know some public servants/journalists frequent this blog. If you scan across similar countries for countries that have successfuly grown out of their situation there may be something useful from the Country GDP Growth Correlation Checker Script? Whether it's viable will be determined by various political, geo-political, legal, local, etc... issues

are forex markets more impacted by trade agreements or currency manipulation
The relationship between international trade and exchange rates has been notoriously difficult to establish and quantify. The researchers evaluated import surges after trade deals to reveal the effect of trade on currency risk. Their modeling and analysis proved their hypothesis: increasing trade lowers the risk of exchange rate volatility.
"When countries trade more with each other, their economies become more aligned, making their exchange rate more stable and less risky," Loualiche says. "It's hard to find a relation between the exchange rates of two countries and how much they trade. We found that trade deals grow trade between countries and normalize their exchange rates, leading to less risk in their currencies."

- you can almost tell which countries are struggling purely by the strength of their currency relative to the reserve currency/US? Partly, the strength of money determines what enterprises are viable for your particular country? I just had to wonder whether racism is reflective currency strength. Genuinely remarkable that the strength of the currencies/FOREX pairs seems to be reflective of past attitudes towards racial superiority (check median values per continent of currency pairs versus the USD, https://tradingeconomics.com/forecast/currency)? Namely, since the slavery and colonial era it has been said that white people are better then black? In most parts of the world the pattern repeats. There's a belief that white Western people are superior, then Eastern/Asian people, then South American, and finally Black African people at the bottom and this is reflected in the strengh of regional currency/FOREX pairs versus USD? I find it remarkable that much of the world isn't more aggravated by the nature of the international trade system (maybe they are judging by some covert activities?) because the way it's currently setup it means that if people do the exact same work across the world they end up with different purchasing power depending on where live? Unfair/dodgy trade agreements, dodgy regional and international regulatory bodies, etc... exacerbate this problem? You need a reserve currency to manage any potential empire because it helps to manage it?

How a Dealer Stole $5 Million From Casinos for 19 Years Using One Simple Chip Trick
🔥 Step inside the secret world of the most legendary casino cheat in Las Vegas history.
This is the unbelievable true story of Richard Marcus — a broke blackjack dealer making $4.50 an hour who discovered a weakness inside every casino on the planet… and used it to steal millions without ever touching a weapon, hacking a system, or threatening anyone.
From the smoky floors of 1970s Las Vegas to the royal tables of Monte Carlo, Marcus built an invisible empire using a single move: The Savannah — a chip-switching technique so smooth, so flawless, that casinos didn't even know they'd been robbed.
For nineteen years he beat roulette tables across Vegas, Atlantic City, London, Paris, and Macau.
For nineteen years casinos chased a ghost.
And in the end… they hired him.
This documentary dives into:
– How Richard discovered the blind spots in casino surveillance
– The psychology behind his legendary chip-switch move
– His worldwide run of million-dollar hits
– The betrayals, close calls, and casino manhunts
– How he flipped the script and became a high-paid security consultant for the same casinos he stole from
Every scene is written by hand. Every detail researched.
No AI summaries. No shortcuts. Just real storytelling.
If you love heist stories, Las Vegas history, and high-stakes mind games — this one is for you.

- capitalism is composed of biased probabilty games that are posing as games of chance? The funny thing is that sports bookmaker is no different then casino game creators and capitalist managers? Psychology when incubments lose is identical to that of casinos, sports bookmakers, capitalists, etc... when they lose? Namely, you ban the better player from playing or else try to renegotiate the trade deal?

Breaking Vegas is an American television series that premiered on the History Channel in 2004. The series covers the great lengths people have gone to make money, sometimes illegally, from casinos.[1]
Many episodes have to do with cheats who illegally take money from the casino using sleight-of-hand tricks or some sort of gadget. Namely, these scams include pastposting and card marking. Other episodes include famous examples of legal money-making techniques such as card counting. Some episodes are about legal strategies like winning at the craps table by throwing at certain angles using a certain grip with certain numbers at the top, or taking advantage of a worn-out ball bearing and a thus tilted roulette wheel.
The series was inspired by the two-hour History Channel movie entitled Breaking Vegas: The True Story of the MIT Blackjack Team, written and directed by Bruce David Klein and produced by Atlas Media Corp.
The episode "Professor Blackjack" is about MIT professor Edward O. Thorp's (portrayed by Jonathan Dickson) computer-based research on the Kelly criterion that was applied in real Vegas casinos in the form of computer aided card-counting schemes with very successful results. Manny Kimmell (portrayed by Peter Salzer), a known mob associate, provided the venture capital for Dr. Thorp's real life experiment and his contribution is described in the same episode.

Free trade
Reagan was a supporter of free trade.[39] When running for President in 1979, Reagan proposed a "North American accord", in which goods could move freely throughout the U.S., Canada and Mexico.[40] Largely dismissed then, Reagan was serious in his proposal and once in office he signed an agreement with Canada to that effect.[39] His "North American accord" later became the official North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), signed by President George H. W. Bush and ratified by President Bill Clinton.[40]
Reagan understood free trade as including the use of tariffs to protect American jobs and industry against foreign competition. He imposed a temporary 100% tariff on Japanese electronics as well as other tariffs on a variety of industrial products, which resulted in some free market advocates criticizing his policies as protectionist in practice.[41]

Bezos Expeditions
Bezos makes personal investments through his venture capital vehicle, Bezos Expeditions.[112] He was one of the first shareholders in Google, when he invested $250,000 in 1998. That $250,000 investment resulted in 3.3 million shares of Google stock, worth about $3.1 billion in 2017.[113][114] He also invested in Unity Biotechnology, a life-extension research firm hoping to slow or stop the process of aging.[115] Bezos is involved in the healthcare sector, which includes investments in Unity Biotechnology, Grail, Juno Therapeutics, and ZocDoc.[116] In January 2018, an announcement was made concerning Bezos's role within a new, unnamed healthcare company. This venture, later named Haven, is expected to be a partnership between Amazon, JPMorgan, and Berkshire Hathaway.[117][118]
Bezos also supports philanthropic efforts through direct donations and non-profit projects funded by Bezos Expeditions.[119] Bezos used Bezos Expeditions to fund several philanthropic projects, including an Innovation center at the Seattle Museum of History and Industry and the Bezos Center for Neural Circuit Dynamics at Princeton Neuroscience Institute.[120][121] In 2013, Bezos Expeditions funded the recovery of two Saturn V first-stage Rocketdyne F-1 engines from the floor of the Atlantic Ocean.[122] They were positively identified as belonging to the Apollo 11 mission's S-1C stage from July 1969.[123][124] The engine is currently on display at the Seattle Museum of Flight.[125][126]

To be honest, it is very low. If you check out Marketplace Pulse, there are a very large amount of sellers that are making next to no money. Just like starting any other business, it takes the right amount of work, knowledge, and dedication to run the right way. Most businesses in general are not successful, and FBA is no different.
However, if you are willing to put in the work and make some of the right initial investments, starting your own is more than possible. Start slow, and don't focus on how much total money you are making. Focus on your margins. If you are able to maintain solid margins, you should be able to scale up!

The Teen Hacker Who Fooled the FBI Twice & Got Away With It
This documentary-style video tells the unbelievable true story of Maksym Popov — a Ukrainian hacker who went from scamming classmates in Zhytomyr to manipulating the FBI itself. At just 20 years old, Popov was lured to the United States under the promise of a tech career, only to be arrested the moment his plane landed. But that was just the beginning.
In 2002, he became the centerpiece of Operation Ant City, one of the FBI's earliest and most ambitious cybercrime infiltrations. Working from a jail cell, Popov helped the Bureau penetrate CarderPlanet, the world's largest identity theft forum — all while secretly warning other hackers that "Uncle Sam is watching." His manipulation cost the FBI millions, destroyed careers, and exposed how little they understood the digital underworld they were trying to control.
By 2005, Popov was running a fake cybersecurity firm — Sichos — extorting Fortune 500 companies while still on the FBI's payroll. His scheme culminated in the unthinkable: hacking the FBI itself, then charging them $10,000 to "fix" his own breach.
This video dives deep into every phase — the arrest, infiltration, betrayal, and confession — of one of the most sophisticated psychological and cyber games in modern history. It's not just about hacking; it's about manipulation, power, and the thin line between law enforcement and the criminals they recruit.

- if you see see most people for what they are it's easier to fix things? The tragedy of capitalism is that (like many other social systems) it rewards those that best play it best. Maximisation of resources and people at your disposal is secondary. Hence, most countries/states try to externalise "bad things" while internalising "good things" (lookup and understand colonialism and/or imperialism and this is easier to understand). A large and advanced Useful Idiot Industrial Complex (UUIC) and Useful Idiot Support Network (UISN) is crucial to this especially in the military and intelligence sectors. After you have enough capital/money then you use government bureacracies and proxies such as the private sector to redistribute assets and opportunities internally in the form of income? You alter opportunities by changing the bank loan terms, capital requirements, regulations and legal requirements of government and business sector, subsidies, etc... Very similar process to money laundering?

The study, which involved 2,800 participants across eight different experiments, found that people commonly believe individuals get rich because they're smart, talented and hardworking, and are deserving of their wealth.
But when it comes to groups of wealthy individuals, like C-suite executives or the top 1% of American wage earners, most folks have a more cynical view.
They attribute those groups' wealth to luck and "an economic system that favored them," says Jesse Walker, the study's lead author and an assistant professor of marketing at Ohio State University's Fisher College of Business.
In one of the study's experiments, participants read the same fact — that the salaries of the CEOs of the largest 350 companies in America had grown from 48 times the average worker in 1995 to 372 times today — framed in two different ways.

- notice that many monetarily successfully people often have mostly similar profiles and often try to start businesses earlier in life (or have a lot of help)?
Some turnkey venture capitalists/consultants make more sense now? They understand the job of building products and making money are radically different which is the reason why they insist on control? Anyone can lie, cheat, steal, etc... but's lying, cheating, stealing, etc... and getting away that counts?

The Democrats' inaugural leader was Don Chipp, a former Liberal cabinet minister, who famously promised to "keep the bastards honest". At the 1977 federal election, the Democrats polled 11.1 percent of the Senate vote and secured two seats. The party would retain a presence in the Senate for the next 30 years, winning seats in all six states and at its peak (between 1999 and 2002) holding nine out of 76 seats, though never securing a seat in the lower house. Due to the party's numbers in the Senate, both Liberal and Labor governments required the assistance of the Democrats to pass contentious legislation. Ideologically, the Democrats were usually regarded as centrists, occupying the political middle ground between the Liberal Party and the Labor Party.

how much progress has occurred in finding a cure for alzheimer's
Over a decade and billions of dollars have been spent on research to find a cure for Alzheimer's, yet none have thus far proved real clinical benefit. If the elusive Alzheimer's disease treatment isn't found soon, scientists estimate that by 2050 someone in the United States will develop the disease every 33 seconds.

Success isn't just about how hard your kid works or how much natural talent they have.
In a true meritocracy, the children with the most investment will always come out on top.
It's not just about money, although spending $75,000 per year on private school definitely helps.
It's about the time, energy, and specific skills you invest in developing your child's potential.
Think about two kids with the same natural ability.
Child A gets $12,000 worth of public school resources.
Child B gets $75,000 worth of elite coaching, private tutors, and specialized extracurriculars.
Even if they both work equally hard, Child B will almost always outperform Child A.
This isn't an unfair advantage; it's a predictable result of massive-scale investment.
As a parent, your job is to be the primary investor in your child's future.
Start by identifying the specific skills your child needs to succeed in their chosen field.
Invest your time in teaching those skills, or find the resources to have someone else do it.
Don't just hope they'll figure it out on their own.
Build a structured environment that encourages and rewards high-level performance.
The more you invest now, the greater the returns will be for your child later in life.
Subscribe for more high-performance parenting strategies, and let me know in the comments: what's the one thing you're investing most in for your child right now?

- information assymetry is crucial to maintain a class based society that tries to repsent itself as free? In each part/tier, you'll notice that they're told what their part in society is from a young age and they can't aspire to be more unless you're already at the top. You'll notice that if you progress towards the upper end they teach to the test in school as well as the workforce which means that they can't generally make the big/important contributions people have a deeper can. Any attempt to switch to a more sane hierarchy will mean most of the current elite will have to move on to other things since their hierarchy depends heavily on lies, hypocrisy, double standards, etc? Humans often have a social system like capitalism, socialism, communism, religion, ideology, etc... and then production (like medicine, science, politics, law, engineering, etc...) on top of it? The lack of accountability and rampant lies, hypocrisisy, and double standards means there's often a disconnect between the two which you often don't get what you want?

What I want to know is if you can you use AI/ML in conjunction with data from various parts of the economy to build an economy from scratch or optimise it so that we can get people into jobs that that are genuinely useful, that they're happy with, that will make the most of their backgrounds, etc? The hardest problem is understanding the logic. Without it, you can't really do anything?

- China (and similar countries that have done well in the modern era including Germany, Japan, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, and Vietnam) have done the exact right thing. Well played, they had partners willing to provide them with decent prices for raw materials, they built up their military industrial complex to allow them to maintain sovereginty and not be co-erced by strong military powers. They developed sovereignty and didn't depend too heavily on externalities which meant they could move up the global economic order? They relied on Open Source stuff and knowledge, insist on skills transfers, engage in exchange programs, made the most of their population and helped to develop it, were pragmatic where need be, etc... They took advantage of the existing global economic order where necessary but didn't become too heavily on it

- Mr Dutton's opposition are promising voters can pull 40 per cent of their super – up to $50,000 – to buy a first home. Separated women would also be eligible.
Yet few people under the age of 40 have enough superannuation savings to pull out $50,000.
The average male aged 30-34 has about $83,000 in their super. The average woman aged 30-34 has about $60,000. The median super balance for people aged 30-34 is more than $10,000 less than the averages.

- It comes as Charles reportedly splashed out £3 million ($A6.1 million) on the home next door to Camilla.
According to the Daily Mail, the monarch bought the neighbouring four-bedroom home – named the Old Mill – to prevent it becoming a wedding venue.
A royal source claimed Camilla had "great anxiety" over the proposal plans, as the potential buyer was said to be keen to "maximise commercial use of the property as a short-term holiday rental and wedding venue."
The source stated: "Think of it – dozens of wedding guests carousing every weekend just the other side of her fence."
The King is understood to have purchased the home using private funds.
He will now reportedly find a "security-vetted tenant" who will put the home to "appropriate" use.
Ms Seward added: "Now, obviously there is security at Ray Mill house, and this was one of the problems with the house next door.
"Because, although the house next door wasn't exactly on her fence, the land from the house next door went right up to her boundary fence, which meant that people could literally sort of hang over the fence and look and look into her grounds."

- Dfat's chief of protocol, Ian McConville, wrote to the Russian ambassador, Alexey Pavlovsky, in late 2022, politely urging him to pay the fines and warning the number of offences could soon be publicly disclosed under FOI laws.
"As you are aware, road safety is a matter of significant community concern in Australia," Conville said.
The Russian embassy will take legal action over the termination of a lease on a site in Canberra for a new embassy.
"We would would also appreciate it if you could remind staff and their dependents of their responsibility under article 41.1 of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations to respect Australia's laws and regulations".
Foreign officials have diplomatic immunity in Australia and cannot be taken to court for traffic offences and overdue fines. But road authorities can issue demerit points and suspend licences, with Dfat able to stop the transfer of registrations until fines are paid.

- Taichi often strikes people as a slow and gentle sports game practiced by the elderly for health benefits, but Li Tianjin's story proves that it is a technique that can help you beat the attacker.
Li said the secret of tai chi lies in meeting the incoming force with softness and following its motion while remaining in physical contact until the incoming force exhausts itself or can be safely redirected.
In Jack Ma's eyes, this applies to business too. He summarized the essence of tai chi, or running business, in three words: "calm", no matter what happens, remain calm; "follow", follow the trend; and "abandon", learn to abandon burden in life.

- In an interview with RT, Musewe pointed out that despite over $2.6 trillion in aid having gone to Africa since 1960, the continent continues to grapple with poverty, unemployment, and inadequate infrastructure.
"The numbers actually say that there is more money going out of Africa than coming in," Musewe explained, estimating that the continent loses around $40 billion annually through aid-related transactions. He criticized the conditional nature of Western aid, which often requires recipient countries to use foreign contractors and suppliers, making the process more of "a business kind of transaction" than genuine assistance. This approach, he argued, fosters dependency rather than development.  
As an example, Musewe highlighted the health sector in Zimbabwe, where reliance on foreign aid has created instability. The withdrawal of US aid, he noted, led to job losses and shortages of essential medicines.
When asked how African nations could break free from this cycle of dependency, Musewe stressed that achieving financial independence would take time and require major structural changes. The first step, he said, would be to improve tax collection by expanding employment opportunities and strengthening domestic industries.
The economist also underscored the need to combat corruption, noting that much of the money meant for development never reaches its intended recipients. "I think out of every dollar, 80 cents goes towards administrative kind of issues, and 20 cents really touches the ground," he said.
Musewe called for better governance structures, increased transparency, and stronger accountability measures, particularly from parliaments and civil society.
While the road to self-sufficiency may be long, Musewe maintained that Africa must build internal capacity and move away from a reliance on aid that has historically failed to deliver meaningful progress.

- In 2008, a man from Voronezh, Russia, named Dmitry Agarkov turned an ordinary credit card offer into one of the most remarkable legal twists in modern banking history. When Tinkoff Credit Systems sent him a standard application, he did not simply fill it in. Instead, he scanned the document, rewrote the fine print, and inserted terms that were entirely in his favour: 0 percent interest, no fees, unlimited credit, and hefty penalties for the bank if they altered or cancelled the agreement.
To his surprise, the bank signed the altered contract without noticing the changes and issued him a working credit card under those conditions. For two years, Agarkov used the card according to his customised rules. The situation took a turn in 2010 when the bank closed his account and sued him for unpaid fees. In court, the judge ruled that the bank's signature on the altered contract made it legally binding, and Agarkov was ordered to pay only the outstanding principal, not the fees or interest.
Not content to stop there, Agarkov counter-sued the bank for breach of contract, demanding 24 million rubles, claiming they had violated the very terms they had agreed to. While the full amount was never awarded, the case ended in an out-of-court settlement, and the bank even issued him a special debit card with unique benefits.
This unusual story has gone down as an extraordinary example of how paying attention to fine print, and having the creativity to challenge it, can flip the balance of power between customer and corporation. It is a rare moment in legal history where a single individual used wit and precision to outmanoeuvre a major financial institution.
Fun fact: Dmitry Agarkov even registered a spoof website with a name nearly identical to the bank's, adding an extra touch of authenticity to his altered contract.

- "The treatment of young Aboriginal kids seemed to me to be one which could be described as over-policing."
Over-policing can take many forms, including unwarranted surveillance and stop-searches, which can follow racial profiling.
...
According to the latest data from the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, young Indigenous people were 21 times as likely to be in detention than their non-Indigenous counterparts.
On an average night in 2019, 53 per cent of those in juvenile detention were Indigenous.
"What Daniel Yock's death shows is what occurs at an individual level, at a local level, at a personal level, is repeated endlessly … and ends up in those completely outrageous statistics," Professor Cunneen says.
...
"Law is about the rules and applying the rules, whereas justice is about seeking to achieve some balance that is equitable," he says.
"Often the application of the law doesn't result in justice."
Although he is a high-ranking officer of the court and the country's most senior Aboriginal barrister, Mr McAvoy is under no illusion about the shortcomings of the legal system.
"The Western legal system wasn't designed for justice for Aboriginal people," he says.
"The history of interaction between First Nations and the Western legal system is littered with occasions of injustice and will continue to be so for a while."

- He also said Richardson had suffered from alcoholism and had been able to work increasingly less in his job as a plumber because of injuries.
"He's not a person of good health at all," he said.
Fine and good behaviour order for public nudity
Magistrate Hunter described Richardson's behaviour as disgusting and expressed concern for his neighbours.
"Somebody should not have to live like this," she said.
"He just does what he likes."
She acknowledged his preference to be naked, but she said once he stepped outside it was a different matter.
"What he does in his own home is his business," she said.
"Quite frankly we in the community do not want to see him naked."

- Ms Angle said the helpline was expecting a surge in calls at the end of the year, especially from people who may be suffering the mental health consequences that often came with increased financial stress.
"People who are calling us are sometimes suicidal," Ms Angle said.
"We're treating ourselves like a mental health helpline."
Ms Angle said people who used to call regularly had gone quiet because they had more money in the bank due to JobSeeker payments (which used to be called Newstart) increasing.

She is encouraging people to reach out to financial counsellors and know the difference between a financial advisor and counsellor.
"Counsellors are always free, they don't earn commission and they are trained to deal with people in trauma," she said.

"A lot of museums use this term of 'contested histories', as this way of glossing over what's actually being contested, which is that nine times out of 10 they were stolen in very violent circumstances or taken as part of looting after a conflict," she says.

- We barely see any diversity within the highest levels of politics and government. In a 2018 study conducted during my term at the Australian Human Rights Commission, we found only about 3 per cent of the federal ministry and 5 per cent of members of Federal Parliament had a non-European or Indigenous background. Far below the estimated 24 per cent within the general Australian population who have such backgrounds.
...
Some Australian cultural reflexes reinforce the tendency. Many of us like diversity, but only as a therapeutic source of national pride. We don't always like it when it challenges us. A certain disapproval seems reserved for minorities who don't express perpetual gratitude for the opportunities presented by this great land. If you're from a migrant background and offer criticism of Australian society, you risk being lashed as an unpatriotic ingrate.
There is, you might say, a certain pressure for our multiculturalism to be nice and polite, maybe even compliant. Many minorities feel a social expectation to be happy "quiet Australians" who won't disrupt the peace.
Compounding the problem, many multicultural true believers too often think that being smart and working hard will be enough to see them rise in our society. They wrongly believe that meritocratic diversity's time will inevitably come.

-   Thousands of people are perpetuating violent assaults and life-ruining
   scams each year to feed gambling addictions, with research for the first
   time proving just how many crimes would be prevented if government clamped
   down – even slightly – on the pokies.
   The "disturbing" study, by NSW's renowned crime researcher, confirms the
   warnings of a man in prison for a multimillion-dollar fraud: gambling,
   like illegal drugs, pushes addicts into a life of crime.
   Gavin Fineff said gambling companies were like dealers "handing out free
   heroin". A study has found gambling spending is linked to violence, fraud
   and theft.
...
   The National Drug and Alcohol Research Centre this week published
   disturbing research in the journal Addiction that found, as gambling
   profits grew across NSW, crime rose with it.
  The researchers concluded that every 10 per cent increase in gambling
  expenditure causes a:
     * 7.4% increase in assaults
     * 10.5% increase in break and enter into and stealing from homes
     * 10.3% increase in break and enter into and stealing from businesses
     * 11% increase in motor vehicle thefts
     * 8.2% increase in stealing from a motor vehicle
     * 7.4% increase in fraud.
   Cutting gambling expenditure by just 10 per cent across NSW would result
   in 4579 fewer assaults; 4247 fewer break and enters; 1398 fewer car
   thefts; 2361 fewer stealing from motor vehicle offences; and 3793 fewer
   frauds each year.

- Ultrasound Revolution: Stopping Brain Lesions Without Surgery
A Quiet Breakthrough with Powerful Impact on Brain Health 🔬✨
In a groundbreaking study, scientists have harnessed the power of focused ultrasound combined with microbubbles to halt the growth of cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) dangerous clusters of faulty blood vessels in the brain that can cause seizures and headaches. Unlike traditional treatments, this technique requires no surgery, no drugs, and no radiation. Instead, it temporarily opens the brain's natural barrier, allowing precise intervention that silences the threat at its source.
In laboratory tests on mice, this revolutionary method stopped 94% of lesion growth, demonstrating a remarkable level of effectiveness. By targeting the problem without invasive procedures, the technique offers a safer, less painful alternative that could transform how neurological diseases are treated, especially for patients unable to undergo surgery.
More than just a medical breakthrough, this innovation signals a new era in brain healing one where precision and non-invasiveness work hand in hand. It's a quiet revolution, promising hope to millions suffering from brain vascular disorders and opening the door to future therapies that protect and restore the brain naturally.
