    Money laundering is the term for any process that “cleans” illegally obtained funds of their “dirty” criminal origins, allowing them to be used within the legal economy. And the practice is about as old as money itself. But how does it actually work? Delena D. Spann describes the ins and outs of money laundering.
    Lesson by Delena D. Spann, animation by Juan M. Urbina.

      I think it is the opposite. Adding too much history to the money so it would be harder to track the source.

    Investors really need to take heed to what Warren said about diversification. Most investors do it for the sake of just diversifying. Maybe one or even two per sector, as long as there are the top one or two in that sector. Also remember too the market goes up and goes down, not by its own but by investors. If a stock falls it's because some investors decided to sell. If a stock rises, its because more investors caught on to a buying opportunity or increased their position.

    • @PhilipMurray251

      To me, the issue comes from knowing what fields I can trust so much because unlike buffet, I simply don't have the ability to sit for 6 & more hours a day and inform myself. For me diversification is risk reduction strategy and its the best market approach . The more stocks you own, the less risky it gets, and more chance of gaining multibags.

      I own 5 positions and I think it's just fine. I don't like to own shares of companies I know nothing about or very little. At the end it's all about choosing solid companies. Some companies you can keep for a very long time. APPL, NVDA, MSFT, GOOG, AMZN, etc now im looking into some Berkshire top hodlings like coca-cola ( KO ), Kraft Heinz (KHC) , American Express (AXP).. Owning shares from these various companies work together to reduce my risk of a permanent loss of capital and portfolio's overall volatility .

      Snarky Edmonton Cyclist The US has the world's strongest currency though. Literally. An economic analysis shows that our paper money lasts so long that it would be a net econonic negative to pay the extra cost to mint dollar coins. We make them anyway because they are sometines useful due to their smaller size, but not often, given their greater weight. We would probabaly resist change anyway (unintentional pun) but in this case, changing our singles for dollar coins would actually be the wrong economic move. That isn't true with currency of the same value in most countries.
