    Ask yourself this. What's the most important thing, you or your wife and kids. Most people will have this Convo with 911
    911- what's your emergency
    Normal ppl- my wife and son have been shot by someone send an ambulance and police immediately. They won't introduce themselves and tell them where they live. Unknowingly you will prioritize importance in your brain. Someone who is genuine will tell the operator the emergency first. Not info about them. There was a study done on hundreds of 911 emergency calls and 97% started the call with what the emergency is. That's the first question you are asked, "this is 911 what's your emergency" it's not "911 what's your name, what's your address and then tell me the emergency." He's guilty.

      "Because there's always someone richer than me", as one millionaire explained it.
      It's a sad, pathetic life internally.
      And internal peace is all that matters.
      When it's not there, all the fancy externals are just a façade and an illusion.

    WHERE IS ALL THE MONEY???
    He earned a lot, stole even more from friends, family, clients & business. He was born into it, didn't pay the bank notes, potentially killed for it, plus much much more greedy behavior. He couldn't have used that much money supporting his alleged opiate addiction, no overdoses, no arrests, no noted decline in his appearance or business practices or performance. Where did all the money go?

    • @beanyboomer5391
      @beanyboomer5391 Год назад

      The money was spent on private, high stakes gambling…he was a regular user of meth but was not addicted…no doubt he used opioids but only when he overindulged on the first item and/or because he was in a losing streak…He only cried addiction as an excuse for stealing money. He soft balled it with prescription drug use because gambling isn’t as sympathetic. He could pull off addiction because he was a user. And Rehab was a bonus because he could lay low for a while

You have to consider the culture of the firm. Also, she cant audit her own books and even if she brought an auditor to look at their books im sure Alex wouldve derailed it & wouldve never let it happened. It’s more nuanced than you think.
