3. In the 1990s on CNBC and sometimes in WSJ, as I recall

There would be some huge option position on a stock that moved 30, 40, 60 points. WHO had inside info anchors would ask, back when Mark Haines and Sue Herrera were on in AM. WHO? SEC is INVESTIGATING!!! And 2 or 3 days later it would be said quietly, oh, the investigation truncated to a PO Box in the Cayman Islands. End of story. I recall P&G plunging 60 points on an earnings miss ... somebody made big money. These are plays of 500 contracts, controlling 50-100k shares ...

Oh well, somebody made a bundle .

5. Passports

I used to subscribe to a magazine called International Living. It was for expats who planned to retire overseas due to the high cost of US living. Getting a second passport was a frequent discussion in articles and I’m still considering it.

7. Don't hold your breath on the investigation.

DoJ won't do it, and the Senate Judiciary doesn't have the votes to subpoena.
