They have either lost their minds or know the future is coming, and they are frothing at the mouth

I am searching but still cannot find the ideal place to live a happy life. They either tax your wealth or your income with a rate of %50 which is another form of theft.

Monaco of course. You'll have to double your anticipated wealth to afford a rabbit hutch there and you'll be surrounded by dried out skeletons in Hermes jumpsuits but at least it's benign on the surface.

I once spent all night waiting on a pavement there. The Monegasque pigs weren't very nice to me.

Put the assets in a South Dakota trust.

Trustee incorporates a private corporation, the shares of which are held by the trust.

Trust funds the private corporation.

Private corporation opens a bank account.

Bank account has a credit card in name of company.

You use the credit card.  Don't do anything stupid with it.  Live wherever you want.

Any more questions?

Now when a no-coiner, tech illiterate friend tells you about "emailing bitcoins", you have to look down on your feet, clench your teeth and quietly and shamefully admit, that is indeed how it works.

good morning WO

My gf’s Dad keeps thinking he has bitcoin’s because he keeps getting emails saying he has 100,000 in ‘his wallet’, fucking tard.

Did they rainier on your parade?
Were they acting all un-grace-ful?

All that and more.

Rather unforgivably I was accompanied by a Person Of Colour which REALLY didn't go down well with a single person there.

In the end to escape the relentless abuse and refusals of service I took a helicopter back to Nice to rent a car and went up the Col de Turini thinking it would be exciting. Turns out doing 150 hairpins in a Fiat Punto is boring as fuck and extremely tiring.

Christ on a crutch.  Longs are almost 10x shorts on BFX.  This is the most crowded trade on the planet.  But shorts still paying longs on Bitmex.  Wtf is going on. 

Couldn't of put it better myself:

This is the most crowded trade on the planet.

My only thoughts is would you incrementally dump Tether for Bitcoin over the course of a month 
Maybe this tells us more about the future of USDT, rather than the price of Bitcoin.

They have either lost their minds or know the future is coming, and they are frothing at the mouth

 ...or they are a bunch of compulsive gamblers trying to board the next rocket for the moon at any cost.

Christ on a crutch.  Longs are almost 10x shorts on BFX.  This is the most crowded trade on the planet.  But shorts still paying longs on Bitmex.  Wtf is going on.  

I'm unable to make heads or tails of this. Just thinking aloud.

BFX allows for margin trading, but it also works as a conventional USD(T)/Crypto exchange. USD welcome. Max leverage is 3.3.

Bitmex is speculation only. You need btc to trade any crypto there. Max leverage is 100.

Longs/shorts are always 1.0 on bitmex. The funding rate for the swaps (who pays who) is determined by the difference between the spot swap price and the index price (basically an average of a few select "reliable" exchanges).

The population on the two exchanges surely overlaps, but how different is it?

So could we infer that gambling btc owners are still betting on DOWN - shorting the swaps, at least short term - while the general population, or at least tether holders - are more bullish?

Guys, I need your coming up with a Christmas gift idea for my wife (that she didn't already instruct me to buy for her) and it can't be a hat!  Money is no object as long as it's under $100 - I need the cash for stackingsats^TM... okay I might be able to go as high as $110

Scent/perfume always.
Dior or similar.

Where do I sign up for drinking classes?

Only problem - it's in the middle-of-nowhere, Massachusetts

as long as youre in the area be sure to visit the local weed dispensaries; no formal classes on the various ways to enjoy the kind bud but very instructive conversations pop up all the time in them nonetheless.

They also like clothes or new shoes perhaps. Is she a boots kind of woman? Nice, fluffy winter boots.

Now I have a question for you:

In Belgium, do you guys have Belgian Waffles, or do you just call them "waffles"?

Bringing black company in Monaco, how tasteless. Your fun with the hairpins and the punto. You deserved every bit of it.

Personally, I'd rather pay a reasonable amount of unjustified taxes - wondering how much it might be reckoned to be - than living there.

And here I was hoping to change my nickname to Abutment

 No way.  I just looked through all of my files and I don't have it!  Closest match:

 I'm going to have to up my game.  I'm asking Santa for an even faster computer.

It is indeed horrible but quite entertaining if you enjoy seeing supercars thrashed at speeds of up to 12 mph.

If you don't have massive ongoing income you may as well live across the road from it as the difference in property prices will eat whatever tax you think you're saving.

I will come with some ideas:

I really, really hate it when peeps post small print like this. My browser can't keep a line centered while zooming, so I have to zoom/scroll/zoom/scroll.
