Ex-Millionaires Are Revealing How They Lost All Their Money, And I'm Actually Speechless

BuzzFeed Tue, June 25, 2024

Reaching millionaire status is a feat people dream of achieving. But unfortunately, having millions of dollars doesn't mean you're invincible, as evidenced by redditor u/HypnoticMushrooms, who asked people to share how they or someone they knew became an "ex-millionaire." I'm genuinely surprised at how some of these people weren't responsible with their money. Here are some of the most insightful stories:

1."COVID-19. I built a business that was given a valuation of a few million back in January, but the industry went down, and I'm doing all I can now to avoid bankruptcy."

2."I dated a guy who unexpectedly inherited $6 million. His parents had been killed in a drunk driving accident when he was a baby, and so their life insurance and money from a legal settlement sat in an account collecting interest for 18 years. He got a call from a lawyer on his 18th birthday, and that's how he found out about it. He went nuts. Every time I saw him, he had a new car.

He bought an extravagant house and insisted on taking these big vacations. He would go to our local comic shop and buy EVERYTHING. His spending was a major factor in why we broke up. It was all too much, watching him blow through money like that. He didn't invest any of it. He blew through all his money in five years. Last I saw him on Facebook, he was destitute."

3."I built a business worth around $3 million, had a house worth $1.4 million, investments worth more than $2 million, and had four nice cars. Divorce laid me low. An ex-wife, a lawyer, and a judge stripped me of at least 75% of that. I was left with a Miata race car, a bit of money, and 51% of my company.

And I still had to pay alimony. I gave up. I negotiated my way out of alimony by giving up more of the company and liquidating everything else.

I bought a boat and f*cked off. 26 months later, I sailed back into my life and started over. I've earned enough to live a modest retirement, and that's where I am today. Don't get married, boys. I've done it twice. The first time was a disaster, and the second time was an annoyance. Just my opinion and experience."

4."A family member of mine did very well in tech. He was an incredibly smart physicist but a horrible businessman. He retired, having made his millions, then bought a beautiful antique yacht. 10 years later, he's in debt and has struggled to sell the boat for years. His family is so pissed at him. TL;DR: don't buy a boat.

5."I was close to being a millionaire after selling my company to a bigger competitor. I reinvested most of it since I didn't have much use for the money, but then I got scammed for about half a million on buying some real estate.

I basically bought a fantastic holiday destination facility from someone who did not own said fantastic holiday destination facility. And by 'bought,' I mean that I'd put a substantial down payment to keep other interested parties at bay. Classic."

6."My grandfather died and left everything to my mom. Then, my father died and left everything to my mom. Mom always thought she was a smart gambler that would win. As proof, she won maybe $25k from the lottery once and went out and bought a car. After that, she was hooked. When Dad was alive, he didn't let her gamble; he kept it under control. After he died, my mom found a boyfriend — a former bookie who was a 'professional' gambler.

They used to like going to casinos, squandering every penny and more. Then, my mom sold the big house for another $500k and bought a small condo. She took out a home improvement loan for it for $50k, but no improvements were ever made. Casinos and lottery tickets. A cool million or two gone."

BuckeyeTree: IMO, not only Iraq and Iraqis need their new exchange rate, but the world needs for Iraq to activate the new exchange rate with not only the amount of business currently contracted but additional business yet to contract. Business will benefit Iraq and those companies, and the countries connected with them will benefit. There are many inter-connections.

Sudani was talking about Iraq and sports interests which will bring more tourism and internationalism because Iraq has security and stability. It is an exciting time for renewal and becoming part of the First World for Iraq and Iraqis.

Therefore, IMO, the phrase at any moment fits even if it may be days away, but difficult to imagine the wait being weeks or months, not with new ATMs out in place and many of them. If the educational videos were made end of April just after US trip, the near proximal future seems to be not too far off, IMO, and July is almost here.

We have the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia engraved with words from the Bible which include "Proclaim liberty throughout the Land and to all the inhabitants thereof." The upcoming period IMO will be a time of great prosperity and freedom from terror for Iraqi people. We wait to hear what is next on Iraq TV from Eddie plus bank friend. We will celebrate when the mission is accomplished. Can you imagine the celebration that will be in Iraq. IMO……Praise God.

The Iraqi Airways Company talked about a new plan to return the green bird to the skies of Europe again.

The Director General of Iraqi Airways, Manaf Abdel Moneim, said in a statement followed by Mawazine News, “The company resorted to a system called (wet leasing) to operate flights and transport Iraqis to Europe in light of the imposed embargo, and we relied on a plane leased from another country that is not subject to the embargo. For a period of 6 months, then the contract was terminated.”

He added, "During that period, we prepared an alternative plan to operate Iraqi aircraft to Europe through the 83 BIS Protocol, which means operating our aircraft under the umbrella of the aviation authority of another country that is not prohibited, and we contracted with Turkey, but we were surprised by Turkey's withdrawal and the refusal of the Turkish Civil Aviation Authority, as a result of the lack of interaction."

The Iraqi Aviation Authority corresponded with its Turkish counterpart, and the latter submitted a low evaluation report to the Iraqi Aviation Authority, and said, “We will not operate aircraft with this system.”

The director of the airlines continued, “After the Turkish Aviation Authority’s refusal, we resorted to the third alternative, which is registering the Iraqi aircraft with a state.” Others are not banned, just registration and not sale, and thus we can use its license to fly and operate our planes to Europe, but during that we received offers and emails from European countries that are not banned, to operate our planes under their umbrella,” pointing out that “the Iraqi Airways Company is continuing with this.” direction".

Professional Ethics: Theoretical And Methodological Imperatives And Economic Transformation

Economy News – Baghdad Researcher in finance and development affairs and academic Aqeel Jabr Ali Al-Muhammadawi

It considers modern ideas about the concept, essence and structure of professional ethics, examines its main categories and problems, and determines its relationship to the general theory of ethics.

It is worth noting that there are common phrases on the subject of professional ethics: professional ethics, professional ethics, professionalism, moral values, and professional behavior.

Ethics emerged as a philosophical science in the middle of the first millennium BC. Because of the need to formalize ethical standards which was the result of the separation of theoretical spiritual activities from practical material activities.

One of the types of material and practical human activity was professional activity. Therefore, even in ancient times, professional ethics arose as an integral part of general ethical theory. Its emergence was due to the emergence of professional ethics and values.

The existence of a special professional ethics in society is a direct result of the historically established professional division and development of labor: professional specialists who know how to do what others cannot do are given certain responsibilities in relation to those who use their services, and this requires the development of special rules, charters and values, Able to support the moral position of professional groups in society, inspire confidence in them and provide moral preconditions for their development.

A good example of this topic is the famous Hippocratic Oath, the prototype of which was the Oath of the ancient Greek doctors Asclepiade.

In addition to the norms that regulate the relationship of the profession with society, the demands directed to each other within professional groups were also formed.

As an example, we can cite the laws that determined the life of workshops in the cities of Western Europe in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. It included a number of rules that put community members on an equal footing in terms of purchasing and processing raw materials, training and developing the capabilities of trainees and trainers, distributing orders, etc.

As well as the fundamental economic content of regulation within shops and industrial economic units, which sought to prevent the accumulation of capital and the development of free competition, it also contained a moral aspect to some extent.

With the development and complexity of social relations, with the identification of an increasing number of individual specialties and professions, the need for professional ethics has grown as a special area of ​​moral knowledge designed to regulate relations between people in any particular profession.

The need for specific ethical requirements and, hence, special professional ethics, is manifested primarily in social-humanitarian professions, in professions of the “person-to-person” type, the main content of which is education and satisfaction of the needs of the individual.

Professional and ethical norms are also being developed in those types of activities associated with the performance of socially important and necessary functions - in the organization of the civil service, in the service sector, commercial, industrial, agricultural, etc.

Professional ethics are also shaped in other professions; It also develops ethical relationships between professionals, society, managers, subordinates and other employees. These relationships are subject to professional ethics. With the development of modern administrative structure and work organization, increasing importance is given to the development of rules of administrative ethics and management ethics.

The emergence and development of such standards and corresponding motives of behavior and professional assessments is one of the directions of the moral development of humanity.

Despite the universal nature of ethical requirements and the existence of uniform business ethics, specific behavioral and value codes have been identified for an increasing number of types of professional activity.

Especially in the reality of economic and professional transformations in Iraq, and the importance of preparing, organizing and approving a guide to professional ethics and conduct procedures and its pioneering role in development and economic renaissance.

Laundering Corruption Money Raises Baghdad Real Estate... Questions About The Source Of Purchasing Power

Baghdad today – Baghdad Economic affairs researcher Mustafa Akram Hantoush confirmed today, Sunday (June 23, 2024), that

the rise in real estate prices in some areas of the capital, Baghdad, is due to money laundering, considering that the Baghdad Municipality’s approval of the area to be 200 meters or less is considered a violation, and also caused an increase in prices. Real estate. Hantoush told “Baghdad Today” that

“thereal estate file in Iraq has become a very complex file and contains clear errors, and

there are also government decisions that have contributed to the rise in real estate prices, including the Baghdad Municipality approving an area of ​​200 square meters for the house as a basic design and there is a separate bond, especially

This square has become unavailable in most areas of Baghdad, except in some upscale areas.” He stated,

"TheCentral Bank of Iraq recently took a correct decision, that any house valued at more than 250 million before the tax must deposit the amounts in a bank until it is known where the source of that money comes from.

This is one of the ways to combat and limit money laundering through purchasing real estate.". He added,

"In areas that are witnessing a crazy rise in real estate prices, with the square meter reaching approximately 12 million or more, real estate there must be monitored, as

this rise may be caused by money laundering, especially since there is no such purchasing power in areas that are originally residential and not commercial." The researcher in the economic affairs continued,

“Working to register one or two houses in the name of one person is considered a reactionary law.

There is no harm in anyone owning dozens of houses if the source of his money is known.

We do not expect that such decisions, if there is a trend towards them, will not limit the rise in Prices at all, but may even have negative consequences.”

30 Countries ditch US dollar: What Next?

Fastepo: 6-25-2024

Nations and regional alliances are increasingly moving away from the US dollar for their trade transactions, a process termed de-dollarization.

This trend seeks to decrease dependence on a single currency, thereby enhancing economic stability by employing a variety of local currencies.

By prioritizing their own currencies, countries aim to mitigate geopolitical risks and bolster their domestic economies.

This ongoing shift is transforming global trade and financial systems, potentially reducing the global dominance of the US dollar.

In this video, we examine the recent trend among various nations to decrease their dependency on the US dollar for international transactions.

We investigate the reasons driving these decisions and offer insights into their economic strategies.

Additionally, we focus on de-dollarization efforts within the BRICS+ bloc, highlighting significant steps these countries have taken to diversify the currencies used in global trade.

Tishwash: Finally, “Carrefour” will open in Baghdad.. The international chain has ended its hesitation

It may not be a passing commercial event in Baghdad.. The international shopping chain “Carrefour” - which has been reluctant for years to enter the Iraqi market - has made up its mind and is actually preparing to open two branches in the capital.

The first will be in the Jadriya area within the “Jadriya Mall,” and the second within the Bismayah Mall complex. According to information obtained bythe 964 networkfrom various sources, the opening of the chain of markets in Al-Harithiya Mall has been withdrawn, because “Carrefour” needs a very large space that “Al-Harithiya” did not provide.

He already got what he wanted, as he acquired the largest part of the area of ​​Al-Jadriya Mall, which will also include a group of branches of international agencies, while the chain’s branch in Bismaya will also obtain a large area within the mall of the residential complex, and Al-Jadriya Mall was scheduled to open.

It was strange that the local authorities in Baghdad agreed to open “Carrefour” in Jadriya...the most crowded area of ​​Baghdad. Usually, the authorities oblige the “Carrefour” chain to open its branches in areas far from city centers, to contribute to the revitalization of remote areas and eliminate traffic congestion, especially since the crowding “Carrefour” is a certainty due to the easy and unique shopping experience it provides, the competitive offers and prices, the way products are presented, and the quality standards supervised by teams of international experts.

Carrefour is a French international supermarket chain with five branches in the Kurdistan region of Iraq (5 branches in Erbil, a branch in Sulaymaniyah, and another in Dohuk), and provides a wide range of home, food and other shopping options to the consumer.

Carrefour was scheduled to open a branch in Baghdad Mall in the Al-Harithiya area in the center of the capital, but the lack of suitable spaces prevented this, which prompted those responsible for the chain’s affairs in Iraq to search for alternative locations, indicating the possibility that the chain may have a third branch and perhaps A fourth in Baghdad soon. ink

Tishwash: Canadian oil replaces Iraqi crude on the American West Coast

Refineries on the West Coast of the United States intend to replace their imports of heavy Iraqi oil with cheaper crude from Canada, at a time when the newly expanded “Trans Mountain” line is re-arranging trade flows across the Pacific Ocean, according to what Bloomberg reported.

California and Washington are scheduled to import about 150,000 barrels per day of Canadian crude via tankers in June, representing a seven-fold increase in average volumes, according to preliminary data from Vortexa. At the same time, their imports of Iraqi “Basra Heavy” crude are expected to decrease to 3,587 barrels per day, from 76,000 barrels last May.

The Trans Mountain expansion, which began in May, transports 590,000 barrels per day of crude from the Canadian oil sands to Vancouver for export. This is likely to be an advantage for refiners on the US West Coast, which would otherwise pay several dollars more per barrel to buy Iraqi crude.

As Canadian imports to the US West Coast rise, shipments of Brazilian medium-sulfur TUPI oil, as well as Basra Heavy crude, decline.

Alberta's heavy West Canadian Standard crude is trading about $13 cheaper than U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude, or about $67 a barrel, according to Bloomberg's general index pricing. Basra Heavy crude is trading about $5.55 cheaper than benchmark Brent crude, or more than $80 per barrel. link

Canadian Oil Replaces Iraqi Crude On The American West Coast

Money and business Economy News - follow up Refiners on the West Coast of the United States intend to replace their imports of Iraqi heavy oil with cheaper crude from Canada, at a time when the newly expanded “Trans Mountain” line rearranges trade flows across the Pacific Ocean.

California and Washington are scheduled to import about 150,000 barrels per day of Canadian crude via tankers in June, representing a seven-fold increase in average volumes, according to preliminary data from Vortexa. At the same time, their imports of Iraqi “Basra Heavy” crude are expected to decrease to 3,587 barrels per day, from 76,000 barrels last May.

The Trans Mountain expansion, which began in May, transports 590,000 barrels per day of crude from the Canadian oil sands to Vancouver for export. This is likely to be an advantage for refiners on the US West Coast, which would otherwise pay several dollars more per barrel to buy Iraqi crude.

Trade flows also suggest that the United States will for now remain a dominant buyer of Canadian oil, even as the pipeline gives producers access to coveted Asian markets.

European competition for Iraqi Basra crude in light of the shortage of supplies

While the Trans Mountain line is still not operating at full capacity, the company expects 22 tankers to ship crude oil from Vancouver this month. More than 81 thousand barrels per day are heading to China. Another 50,000 barrels per day are headed to India, the first movement of its kind off the Canadian Pacific coast.

As Canadian imports to the US West Coast rise, shipments of Brazilian medium-sulphur, Tupi, as well as Basra Heavy crude oil are declining.

Alberta heavy West Canadian Standard crude is trading about $13 cheaper than U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude, or about $67 a barrel, according to Bloomberg's general index pricing. Basra Heavy crude is trading about $5.55 cheaper than benchmark Brent crude, or more than $80 per barrel. Views 69 06/25/2024 https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=44588

It's time we put thoughts of lack behind us. It's time for us to discover the secrets of the stars, to sail to an uncharted land, to open up a new heaven where our spirits can soar.-Sarah Ban Breathnach
