@CasPiancey How do these guys throw money into stuff without audited financials?
Guy's doing due diligence by getting the financial bullets points via Signal or Telegram
@CasPiancey Does Michael Lewis understand that even if customers eventually get their money back (when they are supposed to always have access to it), that commingling funds is still a very serious infraction to commit?
@CasPiancey The only firms that would have the resources available to do this are the large global ones (Big 4 etc), who would never touch them because of the risk involved.
Any small firm opinion on these are completely useless.
@CasPiancey The value of an audit opinion to external parties is only as good as the auditor's reputation. If they don't have a positive reputation to protect, their clean audit report shouldn't mean much.
@ramit If you're living in a country where access to markets for investments isn't as open as the US, home purchase could be split between housing costs (interest etc) and investments.
@CasPiancey Being outside the US, I find it so strange that these things aren't public record. If you're an auditor here, it's public info who you audit.
Any private company greater than a specific threshold also requires an audit every year.
The US is crazy.
1) No doubt a tough & emotive piece for @JoeBrolly1993 to write. I'm concerned by his view that it is harmful for children when women share their stories of domestic violence in a public sphere, as a/c Brolly 'there is no protecting them now.' https://t.co/Sh8XMiGZib
