What wealth flight laws do countries with freely tradable currencies have? AFAIK I could move a million dollars from my bank account to a bank account in England with no issues.

You know Paypal is owned by Ebay? I would bet a lot of their fraud policies related to physical goods are derived from their auction experiences.

Has any individual ever been charged with fraud for misrepresenting their wealth? I understand its likely that the company faces fines and such, but I've never heard of an individual getting in trouble.

How do wall street arbitrage desks link equity and debt? While I'm sure there's some degree of correlation, it appears that debt securities tend to be much more longer viewed than equity.

I like https://oneshallpass.com/ better since it lets you change some attributes about the passwords generated. So if a site is compromised you can just increment the generation field and get a totally new hash.

Not very many NASCAR tracks are road tracks, looks like 5 out of 29. I don't believe NASCAR has ever (or at least in the past decade or so) raced an actual street course though. E.g. similar to the Monaco GP, Montreal GP or for ALMS, B

I wonder how a modern day CanAm car would compare to F1 cars. At the time the CanAm cars were producing far more power (Porsche 917/30 ~1,580hp) than F1 and still had to handle.

Have F1 cars been remotely close to something that normal people could relate to since the 60s? Are you sure its just them trying to make F1 green? The cost standpoint helps keep large companies involved and aids smaller companies so they a

But first is true for both cases. If you want to buy something like a Porsche 959, there are only ~200 of them in the world. To get them in the US you have to go through quite the process to have the emissions stuff modified and updated. Ev

The short wikipedia page about her seems to claim that she ran her father's business after his death for a period of 12 years. That doesn't seem like a prison with gold bars, it sounds like a career. Sure it seems like her persona

How often is there a direct transfer of this size? Fedwire moves about 2.7T/day and I believe it would have cost $0.26 to transfer this amount, assuming that its at the upper end of their sliding scale ($0.08 - $0.26/transfer).

How does that make sense? If you create a C corp, you are under no obligation to disclose that on your personal tax returns unless a taxable transaction happens and all the money earned would be inside the C corp which is its own entity.

Given only 3 have an entire network value of greater than $10M, I'm not sure I would agree with "succeeded". More to the point, outside of BTC and maybe LTC, I don't believe there are many (any?) merchants accepting them

"breach of fiduciary duty" is a very real thing. (29 USC § 1109 specifically) In this case it has nothing to do with the link you posted. He means the contract that Twitter signed with the banks probably has language that says the
