She assumed she could win in a crooked game by playing fair and by the rules? This is China, the CCP own everything, and having someone take 'advantage' of a seemingly cunning and thoughtful hedging system is actually quite ingenious, but consider the follow:
> But once the flight is delayed, Li said she would make use of one of the insurance company rules that did not require the insured themselves to apply for compensation, and proceed to get compensation from the company.
Traders make the same bets all day by shorting stocks and currencies, but if you try this with the CCP I'd be surprised if this woman not only had all her money and property stolen from her, but she ended up in some labor camp in the South to appease the 'great leader' and was forced to make some forced apology that was subject to the same 1984 style two minutes of Hate.
- cheez 6y agoUh buddy the same thing happens here if you manage to find a loophole that makes you rich, you're a criminal.

John Corzine (a former Senator) and MF Global would disagree with your premise; as well as a long list of bankers at Citi, JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs etc... They make the rules, we don't; they win, we lose.
- cheez 6y agoNot sure what you're trying to say. If _we_ found a loophole that took money away from the big boys, we would be criminals. Look no further than Nav Singh for proof. He was taking money away from the HFTs and was criminalized for it.
