wallstreetbets ? YOLO ? You Should watch this HK Series - The Greed of Man!! IMDB link:  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0843185/ When their family's entire fortune is wiped out after making the wrong bet on the Hong Kong stock exchange, an investment financier forces his sons to commit suicide before following after them. A Honk-Kong epic on life as it is, top clans. 20 March 2011 | by mkrjmn – See all my reviews A hidden gem of a Honk Kong movie-industry, the about-three-decades-lasted story unfolds a usual landscape of local traditional semi-transparent inter-links between industry and simply crime while following two clans created by ex-school-friends reveling for and separating by feelings to the same girl. Blood, murdering, thirst for reaches depicted as mix of comedy and tragedy easily consuming by any viewer, while local stars-performing and musical-helped this process much. An eventual presence of English subtitles might usher this epic into outer world surely.

 Statement from the President Melania and I mourn the passing of Sheldon Adelson, and send our heartfelt condolences to his wife Miriam, his children and grandchildren. Sheldon lived the true American dream. His ingenuity, genius, and creativity earned him immense wealth, but his character and philanthropic generosity his great name. Sheldon was also a staunch supporter of our great ally the State of Israel. He tirelessly advocated for the relocation of the United States embassy to Jerusalem, the recognition of Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights, and the pursuit of peace between Israel and its neighbors. Sheldon was true to his family, his country, and all those that knew him. The world has lost a great man. He will be missed. https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-statements/statement-from-the-president-011221/

Tim Culpan Thu, 24 December 2020, 7:00 am GMT+8·9-min read (Bloomberg Opinion) -- I was at Hong Kong international airport the morning the U.S. reported its first case of the virus out of Wuhan, China. News had already been circulating about this deadly new illness in Taiwan, my point of departure, and I spent that layover rushing around looking for the provisions needed to minimize the risk on my flight to New York. Masks were out of stock but I eventually found a small bottle of sanitizer with a cartoon Shiba Inu dog on the label, an irony I’d later appreciate. At the airline lounge, staff were dismissive of my suggestion that hand sanitizer be made available at the counter to all passengers. I knew that would change. By the time I landed at JFK airport, Chinese authorities had shut down Wuhan in an admission that this virus was serious and spreading. Yet that move was far too late. Three days earlier Taiwan had already set up its Central Epidemic Command Center, and three weeks pri...
