  1. It's called securities fraud

  2. Posts from businessmen say simply that the only things that aren't ponzi schemes are day laborers living on the streets earning just enough to buy food. Literally everything else is losing money.

  3. You can make appointments but then you'd realize the line is actually weeks long.

  4. In California? The problem is overregulation and a lax judiciary. You won't have trouble finding honest work that pays on time.

  5. He was born in South Africa. Ineligible.

  6. Immigrant refers to people who move to a country permanently, expat does not. Most foreigners in China are there because work brought them there and they go home when their work ends. More foreigners in North America (including Winston) intend to live there forever and often come with no job, family, or backup plan to fall back upon.

  7.  @Bareego  plane ticket costs easily a grand while rural Chinese are paying like 20 bucks to rent a room

  8. One travel agency said most of the people visiting china they deal with are business people going there on business and they're asking how to avoid getting detained

  9.  @KennyCronin-wq8xq  Not zero, but not very much since the licensed charity organizations in China were busted for embezzling. The Chinese steal far more than they give away.

  10. Shut up

  11. They risk getting fired if they don't meet physically impossible quotas. The businessmen call it "squeezing."

  13. How about THIS: According to the South China Morning Post, 155,000 US visas were issued to Chinese citizens between May 2021 and October 2022. Those are big consulates.

  14. You clearly don't know who Winston is. He's a white African who fled worse conditions in South Africa and went to China looking for opportunity. At one point he was the "white monkey" of a corporation pretending to be a British engineer for a Chinese startup so that people would think they had foreign backers. At another point he was living on the streets, and at another point he was attacked by a mob outside a whorehouse for refusing to pay someone else's tab. He was still living in China when he started making videos about it, but now he lives in California. The only pay he gets is from YouTube.

  15. Vhut? Their vaccines are also fake and not all of them had it.

  17. The US/Canada grow at 10% a year and aren't ponzi schemes. Sure, Japan is a fully developed nation but there's no opportunity there since it is overcrowded with people while parts of North America are not fully settled. Same goes for Australia and New Zealand where many Chinese go too.

  19. The weapons are fake too. The Phillippines bought some back when they were butting heads with the US and returned them because they were malfunctioning or breaking after a few shots and were not accurate. Chinese rocket battalion soldiers said that during winter cold snaps they ran out of fuel so they just stole it from the rockets and so now many are empty. The number of soldiers given is also fake, as it includes inactive reserves ready for callups but are really working civilian jobs.
