Say you find yourself sitting on top of a vast fortune of funds that were acquired legitimately (or otherwise), and let's just say this vast fortune propels you to billionaire status. Congratulations! You've made it! ... well, sort of. All that’s left to do now is make sure your fortune is secure for generations to come (and not lost as quickly as it was made).
But before you can enjoy the high life, you are going to need to first check-off a few things. Luckily you are in the right place. So, take out your notepad and pen, this is the first video in a two-part series on how to become the master of your finances.

    Here's how it works in the Art World: Step 1: John Doe is an art dealer. He persuades his friends Alice and Bob to buy works by an up and coming young artist, for $2 million each, on the understanding that they will be a good investment. Step 2: Over the next few years, John Doe uses his position to hype the artist. He hires people to write about the artist in academic journals, organises exhibitions, helps the artist to 'win' prizes, etc. Step 3: John Doe puts some of the artist's works into auctions, and bids the prices up with the help of friends. As he is ultimately buying from himself, the only cost is the auctioneer's commission. Step 4: Ten years later, Alice and Bob own works that are worth, on paper at least, $10 million. Step 5: In the meantime, Alice has just pulled off the real estate deal of a lifetime, and made a huge profit. Unfortunately, she now owes the IRS $10 million. Step 6: She decides to donate the painting to her local modern art museum. The trustees are happy to state it's value at $10 million. The IRS accepts the valuation and allows Alice to write of her $10 million tax bill. She is now a noted philanthropist, and she gets a wing of the museum named after her. Step 7: Bob, on the other hand, isn't doing so well. He needs cash quick, but he can't sell his painting on the open market - because it isn't worth very much without John Doe manipulating the price. Step 8: Bob goes to his bank and asks for a loan, using the painting as collateral. However, the bank wants an independent assessment of its value, so they ask a world expert on this particular artist - John Doe. John Doe confirms that, based on previous auction prices, it's worth $10 million. Step 9: The bank agrees to lend Bob 70% of the value - $7 million. Step 10: So Alice has saved herself $10 million in taxes from an initial outlay of $2 million. And Bob has gotten himself $7 million to play with from an initial outlay of $2 million. *DISCLAIMER: THIS IS FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY, AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE MONEY LAUNDERING ADVICE.

    I work in a Financial Crimes unit of a financial services company and it feels so pointless. Most laundering is done through legal means and laws against it really just enrich middle-men like lawyers, accountants, and personal bankers. Seeing it first hand just makes me think most tax laws either need to be harmonized or just given up on because the only people paying tax are those with modest salaries. My firm has sooo many Caymans and Malta registered businesses that one would think those two countries have the worlds most advanced economies. It’s just so much nonsense.

    I absolutely love seeing the stories about low-tier earners winning the lottery. They win $50M, and are broke within 5 years. What happens if you give a homeless person $40k? They'll spend it all within a month, then return to their sleeping bag in front of the Walgreens on Skid Row. And relying on your government to fix this "problem" is downright insane. When has any government program been completely successful, and stayed within the outlined budgets?

    Governments don't need to increase taxes nor get more taxes from billionaires to cure homelessness. They just need to trim spending in other areas and they'll have enough funds. Example: In the UK, the homeless charity Crisis estimates if the Government trimmed 5% of Trident spending (approx. £10 Billion) they could end homelessness in 10 years. Even if it cost double that, it would still be a tiny percentage of overall Government spending across all departments. Pressure Governments to do that first, then if you want extra welfare reforms THEN look to the 0.1%

    buying politicians are harder, buying votes on issues 1 at a time is more accurate. A rich firm doesn't say to politician x, vote on everything we like for money, rather they find a politician that largely agrees with them and gives them money to ensure loyalty and build relationships that way, a bit more mutual. Now if there is a certain emergency vote that they cannot use these more long-term strategy on, then they start bribing/mud-slinging attack ads instead since that's the one goal.

    This wasn't even really money laundering. I was hoping this video would explain something, but it didnt. The gist of it seem to be to fake how much money you make, by registering many more customers than there are, and so on. Then to get the money out you fake buy a lot of stuff from fake companies, and then you got your clean money. Casinos should make that much easier, and work much higher quantities.
