And the rest of 30% will be in bitcoins that we shall be able to use when they permit itTheNews wrote: Sun Jun 18, 2017 6:32 pm Being rich is great. But being rich in America? That’s even better.
With US stock benchmarks trading just below record highs, and Treasury yields not too far from the all-time lows reached last summer, the gulf between the world’s wealthy elite – those 18 million households worldwide with more than $1 million in assets – and everybody else is rapidly widening.
According to a new study by Boston Consulting Group via Bloomberg, these households - with a total head count of roughly 70 million people, or about 1% of the world’s population - control 45 percent of the $166.5 trillion in wealth. By 2021, they will control more than half, suggesting that, while wealth inequality in the rest of the world is simply accelerating, in America, it’s gone into overdrive. Right now, 63 percent of America’s private wealth in the hands of U.S. millionaires and billionaires, BCG said. By 2021, their share of the nation’s wealth will rise to an estimated 70 percent.

Re: Do You Get THAT Feeling?
105You mean that the NSA has direct access to the server of Skype? Last week the roaming fees fell away here in the EU (officially) and I remembered back the days where we paid a property to call abroad. Then came jajah and nono (I often used it) and then Skype. But now you have many other possibilities for a free domestic or abroad call (my ICQ-account is ancient). Poor Skype groups, if there are still any.

106 The Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFiD II) introduces some important changes to financial services regulation in the UK. In a notice issued on Monday, FCA encourages firms carrying out activities covered by MiFID II within the country to submit applications for MiFID II authorization by 3 July 2017.
The UK financial regulator reminds that MiFiD II will come into effect on January 3. 2018, and if investment firms continue to provide services covered by it in the country without the required permissions, they may face civil, regulatory and/or criminal consequences.

108The Israeli parliament – the Knesset – is due to discuss the eventual ban on offering binary options to clients abroad and accepting foreign clients by Israeli companies, local media report.
The so-called “Binary Options Act” will be tabled for deliberations by the country's Finance Minister Moshe Kachlon. The proposal has to go through two readings before becoming a law.
If this happens, the marketing and offering of binary options to foreign clients will be illegal and so will be the signing up of clients from other countries. Those who break the law will be the subject of severe penalties.

109 According to regulatory filings from previous week leading global investment banking, securities and investment management firm Goldman Sachs has sold down its stake in CMC Markets from 5% to 3.4%.
A long-term partner of UK CFD trading and spread betting provider CMC Markets, Goldman Sachs initially bought a 10% share in the broker for $140 million. It also took active participation in the listing of CMC Markets on the London Stock Exchange (LSE) in February 2016. Goldman had since retained an approximate 5% stake in CMC Markets, but probably got disappointed over the continuous decline of CMC Markets’ stock price.

110This Is a good point of view stated from the Nuclear Crisis Group, unfortunately the recommendations are not likely to be implemented in my opinion as long as the power is in the people which are currently in D.C , and sooner or later we will face the Nuclear war....
