For experienced investors , can you lock up your capital in the market to prevent loss?

The law firm will see if the company has been involved with shady dealings.

It sounds like there is actually money laundering going on--transferring funds to hide their point of origin.

If the person who is holding--hopefully not spending--your money is in another country, that can complicate matters.

Do this too: do a Google search. In the search box, type the name of the company with which you have been dealing and follow that name with the word COMPLAINTS. Do another search and substitute the word SCAM for COMPLAINTS. You may find the company has many complaints against it.

Do Google searches og both the companies and the individual with whom you have been dealing.

It is a red flag if the company does not show up in any Google searches.

But see one of those law firms right away. The longer you delay, the less chance of any financial recovery.

Do you think, Max, that networking has decreased in importance as a job finding tool?

P.S. With fraudsters, they always put you off--to give themselves time to defraud more people and make their final getaway!

Now here is something else I learned from conducting fraud investigations--do not get the fraudster charged by the police right away. See an attorney who specializes in fraud cases. Why? Because the police will tip him off that something is coming, and he will likely disappear with your money. A fraud attorney can get a court to freeze his assets, so he cannot abscond with your money.

Here are two anti-fraud law firms to check out in Hong Kong:

Most law firms will give you a free consultation. Make an appointment and see where you stand.

It's the only logical thing to do!

How to stop mass shootings.

Now let's ask ourselves a question: why has there never, ever been a "mass shooting" at a public shooting range?

Why do you think?

The guy who shot up Luby's in Texas used to go to the range at Ft. Hood and practice. But he was always very polite when he was there.

Could it be that these mass shooters know that if they started something at a public shooting range, the other shooters--who of course have guns--would have shot them to doll rags?

Mass killers love those "gun-free zones" like schools, because they know they can go there, shoot people, and not have to worry about being shot themselves.

Here is the number one rule about investing in precious metals: don't do it unless you have the metals in your personal possession.

George Takei of Star Trek fame told an audience once that he took a bath by investing in gold.

I have been a fraud investigator and this smells like fraud. Tslk to the anti-fraud unit of the Hong Kong police. I will bet that the guys running this investment scheme are known to the police. Do it today!

There are reasons to hold onto stocks or bonds, and certificates of deposit, while either waiting for the price of stocks to go up or for bonds to mature.

But you can always get your money out of these things.

I think someone is playing with you. Don't believe claims of locked up wealth, and do NOT invest in such a scheme.

Well I'm the best dog trainer on the planet!

I know what you mean, but its a competitive world out there. Social media is now a job. Getting people to look at you is a job. Both tools can make business opportunities beyond my tiny city. Instead of reaching the 2 million who live in my county, I can reach countless millions on line just by promoting my brand on youtube and facebook

If you can pioneer an online dog obedience school, the world will be your oyster! ;-)

You might think about renting a cabin at a park. Imagine a nice fire going in the fireplace, cozying up to one another while drinking a glass of wine . . . this would probably be a good time to rent one. And you can still enjoy nature--no matter what time of year it is.

Mrs. Sherlock and I want to do that this summer in the States!
