another 'crypto' out of china is HNA, that which no one knows who owns what

watch it blow up

the debt of HNA can be as high as 250 billion, with overseas banks : domestic bank debt perhaps at 10:1

I have a deep understanding of lazy people. It started at 7 and half years of age,

In the class -well it looked more like a horse stable- there were three rows of double chairs. we sat in pairs.

One row for first grade pone for second and another for third grade.

Students avoided seating in the first rows as the teacher took a closer look at them.

I arrive medium term and took first row as I anted to hear everything the teacher would say.

To be able to learn what she taught grades 2 and 3 I had to work fast on the work she gave.

But I had to raise the hand as soon as I completed the works. My colleague at my seat would drag my hand down saying:
Keep quiet for us to relax.
I asked why?
He said: she will give us more work to do.
Was my first lesson on lazy people. I could not believe someone would like to relax instead of learning more.

From them on I discovered people are not like me. The vast majority are lazy. Just posted this on my Facebook under the heading:
The rise of the lazy people. Get a slave robot to work for them.

Leisure Society: 32 percent of students and working people do not think they need a job to develop a meaningful life. 40 percent say they would like a robot that works and earns income for them, freeing up leisure time.
