billion dollar whale - wright & hope (2018)

Jho Low is one smart boy without a conscience. what i cannot understand is how his dad and mom and extended relatives do not appear to be troubled by too many scruples either. i mean, would not your heart just break? 

Najib comes across as a greedy bugger who made an unfortunate marital choice. and not a very smart one either, compared to the gentleman above. but vicious in a corner.

as for Goldman Sachs, they are pretty much the scum of the earth. one can hardly believe the unfettered avarice.

i do wish that michael lewis had written this though.

rudolph the red-nosed whatever

i venture to the stores today in a trip determinedly dedicated to commerce. as opposed to a walk that serendipitously ends up in the neighborhood, so to speak, sans planning sans energy and sans wallet.

here are my observations:
  • they've started on the great christmas carol massacre. right on time just off of halloween
  • there is a concurrent black friday sale. that's cultural appropriation for you
  • some people even have an autumn sale! 
in any case, like i report to HOM, i spend two-odd hours browsing and successfully buy yong tau foo for lunch. vive la on-line shopping!
