Download or read book Dirty Money written by Robert Perry and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2006-05-25 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dirty Money describes the origin of financial investigations of narcotics traffickers through four landmark prosecutions in Los Angeles. The House that Heroin Built tells of how a major heroin dealer's purchases of luxury items, including a San Marino mansion and several expensive cars, were used to prove he was the leader of a national organization and obtain a life without parole sentence. The Hunt for the Architect details how a small bank's reports of currency deposits helped identify and bring to justice an organization which derived more than $32,000,000 from heroin and cocaine. A Very, Very Honest Lawyer concerns the detection and investigation of a sophisticated money laundering service for narcotics traffickers run by a Beverly Hills attorney. The Grandma Mafia relates how a courageous banker helped uncover a multi-million dollar money laundering and cocaine trafficking operation run by middle-aged grandmothers. The recounting of these significant cases is told by former Assistant U.S. Attorney Robert Perry, who supervised the investigations and represented the government at trial. Today, financial investigations are a major weapon in the federal government's continuing fight against narcotics. This important investigative technique originated in the cases described in this book.

Download or read book Big Dirty Money written by Jennifer Taub and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2021-09-28 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Blood-boiling…with quippy analysis…Taub proposes straightforward fixes and ways everyday people can get involved in taking white-collar criminals to task.”—San Francisco Chronicle How ordinary Americans suffer when the rich and powerful use tax dodges or break the law to get richer and more powerful—and how we can stop it. There is an elite crime spree happening in America, and the privileged perps are getting away with it. Selling loose cigarettes on a city sidewalk can lead to a choke-hold arrest, and death, if you are not among the top 1%. But if you're rich and commit mail, wire, or bank fraud, embezzle pension funds, lie in court, obstruct justice, bribe a public official, launder money, or cheat on your taxes, you're likely to get off scot-free (or even win an election). When caught and convicted, such as for bribing their kids' way into college, high-class criminals make brief stops in minimum security "Club Fed" camps. Operate the scam from the executive suite of a giant corporation, and you can prosper with impunity. Consider Wells Fargo & Co. Pressured by management, employees at the bank opened more than three million bank and credit card accounts without customer consent, and charged late fees and penalties to account holders. When CEO John Stumpf resigned in "shame," the board of directors granted him a $134 million golden parachute. This is not victimless crime. Big Dirty Money details the scandalously common and concrete ways that ordinary Americans suffer when the well-heeled use white collar crime to gain and sustain wealth, social status, and political influence. Profiteers caused the mortgage meltdown and the prescription opioid crisis, they've evaded taxes and deprived communities of public funds for education, public health, and infrastructure. Taub goes beyond the headlines (of which there is no shortage) to track how we got here (essentially a post-Enron failure of prosecutorial muscle, the growth of "too big to jail" syndrome, and a developing implicit immunity of the upper class) and pose solutions that can help catch and convict offenders.

Download or read book Free Money Investing Strategies Step by Step Start Up Guide for Beginners Market Crash Survival Guide 101 written by Mandi Ward and published by Mandi Ward. This book was released on 2020-04-24 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Morpheus knew before all of us did. He knew the reality we created for ourselves is a lie. We are being used. We are the cogs in someone else's plan. Well, friends, I'm here to tell you that your SALARY or hourly rate is the BRIBE they give you to forget your dreams. Are you going to keep sleeping? Are you going to take a different path that freaks you the fuck out? The time to decide is right now. I don't need to tell you the world is falling apart but, do you see what a virus is doing to us humans? Do you know the way each country responds? Do you have toilet paper? I am in no way making an argument for mutiny. I love my country. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else except on a beach with a fishing rod and a never-ending drink, but that's another story. My goal is to open one of your eyes to investing. Hopefully, you will open the other eye! Then maybe with two eyes open, you can create your path. What does this mean for investing? Simple, what goes up must come down. If you are juggling flaming knives, when one is tossed up, another is aimed at you. Now, picture a trusted friend helping you with these flaming knives. Their job is to catch the knives and toss them in cold water to put out the flame. As it turns out, you can do this same thing with flaming stocks and their icy, bitter twins. These types of stocks are played against each other. When one is up, the other is down. Play the downturn loser, not the winner. Why buy the inverse stock that is running up? You probably think it is a done deal. Buy the winner hitting 15% today! Hold till tomorrow........ BUST. Often new traders have timing issues that cause them to enter into a position that suddenly drops after purchase. Instead, watch the inverse stock fall off the face of a cliff. Wait until the RSI is dirty low before buying in. Wait some more on purchasing the inverse until you see the running up stock flip (aka turn red or decrease in gains). The inverse chart will begin to show green tickers on the one day one minute chart. DO NOT PLAY INVERSE ETF'S ON ANYTHING BUT A DAY TRADE. You will lose everything and be stuck bad holding a L O S E R for a long time. I've done this. Don't do this; it sucks watching a $100 stock go to $30. You can cut your losses and take it in the rear. Or bag hold for who knows how long. When investing, you want to wait for the potential purchase to show you its actual value. A Floridian will buy shrimp off of some dude's pickup truck but, we won't dangle our feet off a dock because we know the hidden dangers under the water. Just as in investing, there are dangers you can only see when you truly take the time to look. Or you learn first hand when you get bit in the ass by a stock you had no business buying without a clear cut plan of entry and exit. You must learn to see the stocks for what they are—a shell game.

Download or read book Finance Essentials For Start up Entrepreneurs written by Professor Trilochan Sastry and published by Blue Rose Publishers. This book was released on 2022-04-12 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tries to present simple but important concepts in accounts and finance necessary to run a start-up successfully. It is not intended to be part of any formal course but rather a handbook to manage the finances of a business. Finance and Accounts is a vast subject and a formal study could take some years. What we have tried to do in this book is to simplify those topics which are very essential and basic in the day-to-day running of a business. If you go through these pages and try to grasp these basic principles, there is every chance that you can master the basics of finance to run your business. You must be familiar with the Pareto principle. In most cases, eighty percent of the effect comes from twenty percent of the causes. Similarly, in running a business, twenty percent of the theories of finance and accounts are important for running eighty percent of your business. It is this twenty percent that we have tried to simplify and put across to you in this book, both in text and in a presentation. The presentation that follows the main text was given to a batch of entrepreneurs who had enrolled for a popular program designed by IIM Bangalore for founders of new start-ups. The presentation was very well received.
Download or read book A Start in Life written by Alan Sillitoe and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2016-08-09 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An outrageously funny novel of adventure, sex, corruption, and crime from one of the greatest British authors of the twentieth century. Michael Cullen is proud to be a bastard. His first memories are of the war, when his mother welcomed every soldier in Britain into her house, and young Michael hid beneath her bed to let the rocking of the springs lull him to sleep. By the time he’s eighteen, he’s got a pregnant girlfriend, and is staring down a long life of working-class respectability that simply makes him sick. So Michael says goodbye to his girlfriend and his home in Nottingham, and hits the road for London, where he will make his fortune—or die trying. From the nightclubs of Soho to the depths of London’s underworld, Michael can’t help but get into trouble. But whether he’s chauffeuring a vicious gangster or smuggling gold bullion across the channel, he never stops having a wonderful time. Indeed, Michael is something else entirely: a happy bastard with nothing to lose. A rollicking picaresque novel by the legendary author of such classics of kitchen sink realism as The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Runner and Saturday Night and Sunday Morning, A Start in Life is one of the funniest British novels of the twentieth century. A Start in Life is the 1st book in the Michael Cullen Novels, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order. “A Start in Life is, for my money, the best novel that Sillitoe has yet written.” —New Statesman “The kind of hilarious nonsense that keeps you riveted to deck-chair or arm-chair, depending on the season.” —The Daily Telegraph Praise for Alan Sillitoe “The master of British verbal architecture.” —Rolling Stone Alan Sillitoe (1928–2010) was a British novelist, poet, essayist, and playwright, known for his honest, humorous, and acerbic accounts of working-class life. Sillitoe served four years in the Royal Air Force and lived for six years in France and Spain, before returning to England. His first novel, Saturday Night and Sunday Morning, was published in 1958 and was followed by a collection of short stories, The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Runner, which won the Hawthornden Prize for Literature. With over fifty volumes to his name, Sillitoe was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature in 1997.
Download or read book Hard Rules written by Lisa Renee Jones and published by St. Martin's Griffin. This book was released on 2016-08-09 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wall Street meets the Sons of Anarchy in Hard Rules, the smoldering, scorching first novel in the explosively sexy new Dirty Money series from New York Times bestselling author Lisa Renee Jones. How bad do you want it? The only man within the Brandon empire with a moral compass, Shane Brandon is ready to take his family’s business dealings legitimate. His reckless and ruthless brother, Derek wants to keep Brandon Enterprises cemented in lies, deceit, and corruption. But the harder Shane fights to pull the company back into the light, the darker he has to become. Then he meets Emily Stevens, a woman who not only stirs a voracious sexual need in him, but becomes the only thing anchoring him between good and evil. Emily is consumed by Shane, pushed sexually in ways she never dreamed of, falling deeper into the all-encompassing passion that is this man. She trusts him. He trusts her, but therein lies the danger. Emily has a secret, the very thing that brought her to him in the first place, and that secret could destroy them both. This is book ONE of FOUR in Shane and Emily's story. Excerpt from Hard Rules (Dirty Money book #1) His hand curls around mine and he drags it to his knee, and the way he’s looking at me, like the rest of the room, no, the rest of the world, doesn’t exist, steals my breath. I haven’t allowed anyone to really look at me in a very long time. “Emily,” he says, doing whatever he does to turn my name into a sin that seduces rather than destroys me. “Shane,” I manage, but just barely. “Did you say yes to dinner because you didn’t want to be alone?” I am not sure where he is going with this, if it’s about reading me or if he needs validation that I am here for him, so I give him both. “I like being alone,” I say, and on some level, it really is true. “I said yes to dinner because you are the one who asked.” My lips curve. “Actually you barely asked. You mostly ordered.” “I couldn’t let you say no.” “I’m actually really glad you didn’t.” “And yet you say you like being alone?” “It’s simple and without complication.” “Spoken like someone who’s lived the opposite side of the coin.” “Haven’t we all?” “Who burned you, Emily?” I blanch but recover with a quick, “Who says anyone burned me?” “I see it in your eyes.” “Back to my eyes,” I say. “Yes. Back to your eyes.” “Stop looking.” “I can’t.” Those two words sizzle, matching the heat in his eyes, and my throat goes dry. “Then stop asking so many questions.” He reaches up, brushing hair behind my ear, his fingers grazing my cheek, and suddenly he is closer, his breath a tease on my cheek, his fingers settling on my jaw. “What if I want to know more about you?” “What if I don’t want to talk?” “Are you suggesting I shut up and kiss you?” Yes, I think. Please. But instead I say, “I don’t know. I haven’t interviewed you as you have me. I know nothing about you. I want to know if you—” He leans in, and then his lips are on mine, a caress, a tease, that is there and gone, and yet I am rocked to the core, a wave of warmth sliding down my neck and over my breasts. He lingers, his breath fanning my lips, promising another touch I both need and want, as he asks, “You want to know if I what?” Everything. “Nothing.”
Download or read book Running from Office written by Jennifer L. Lawless and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015-04-08 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past two decades of politics in Washington have seen increased partisanship, prolonged stalemates, and numerous scandals. For today's teenagers and young adults, years of ineffective and inefficient political leadership have completely eroded any sense that politicians or government have the ability to do good or effect positive change. Worse, the mean-spirited, dysfunctional political system that has come to characterize American politics has turned young people off to the idea of running for office. With more than 500,000 elected positions in the United States, what will happen when this generation is expected to take the reins of political power? Through an original, national survey of more than 4,000 high school and college students, as well as more than 100 in-depth interviews, Jennifer L. Lawless and Richard L. Fox find that young Americans feel completely alienated from contemporary politics and express little ambition or aspiration to run for office in the future. The overwhelming majority see nothing particularly noble about those currently in office, viewing most as dishonest, self-interested, and disinterested in helping their constituents. These young people want to improve their communities and enact change in the world; but they don't think politics is the way to achieve these goals. In fact, they look disdainfully upon the prospects of growing up to be a mayor, governor, senator, or even president of the United States. Running from Office explores young people's opinions about contemporary politics and their political ambition (or lack of it). The book paints a political profile of the next generation that should sound alarm bells about the long-term, deeply embedded damage contemporary politics has wrought on U.S. democracy and its youngest citizens. As disheartening as their conclusions sound, Lawless and Fox end with practical suggestions for how new technologies, national service programs, and well-strategized public service campaigns could generate political ambition in young people. Today's high school and college students care deeply about improving the future, and it's not too late to ensure that they view running for office as an effective way to do so.
