Rebirth 79: I opened a bank in the United States

Chapter 257 The Two Faces of Human Beings

"I'm sorry, Mr. Soros! Redeeming my share in Quantum is not because I have lost trust in Quantum Fund. It is really my current situation. I urgently need capital turnover. This is the reason."

Give money to others and let the other party make money for you, but after making the money, you run away with the money unethically.This approach made Carter, who was doing this for the first time, feel a little unreasonable.When facing Soros, I also felt a little bit ashamed
"It's okay, I understand. The redemption application has been approved by me. Once the money is received, it will be credited into your account within three days."

Compared to Carter with complex emotions, George Soros is much more open-minded.It's just that while being open-minded, Carter can also find that there is still a trace of haggardness on the other side's face.

Soros doesn't seem to be recovering from Jim's exodus
"Also, is it convenient to ask? How is Jim doing?"

The ensuing questions quickly confirmed Carter's conjecture.Just this question.
Thinking about the absurd experience of himself and Jim’s monthly subscription in Hawaii, Carter couldn’t help but see the image of Jim Rogers wearing floral underpants, holding a small water gun, swaying among two. Oh no, it should be four girls now.
"Well, this is generally stable. However, occasionally I will be a little sad! Jim told me several times that he left only because of the disagreement between the two of you, and it has no effect on the friendship. You are still the best for each other. friend!"

2 US dollars a month, the average day is 666.66666, which is really six!
I paid for it myself, but it turned out that Jim, the sixth child, enjoyed it all.Thinking of this, Carter felt a little emo, and the expression of this emo accidentally made Soros feel a trace of sincere comfort.

Putting on a smiling face again, Soros stepped forward and patted Carter on the shoulder:

"That's right, we're still friends, we're friends too! I've heard from Zhu Li about your recent situation. It's really not easy to raise [-] million U.S. dollars. Come on! If it's not enough in the end, you can call me!"

"Thank you! Mr. Soros, then I won't bother you for now. This time I'm mainly here."

"It's okay, I understand. Come, I'll see you off!"

"Didn't you get laughed at?"

Downstairs, Julian leaned against the car door, and when he saw Carter coming out, he made a joke with a smile.

He felt that Carter's trip was superfluous, and the investment in the fund was originally a business relationship between you and me.I think you are good, I invested in you, and now I want to use the money, or I think you are not good enough, so I choose to withdraw.

It is obviously something that should be done, so there is no need to go to Soros to say hello, or even say, to express apology or something.You didn't do anything wrong, so why do you think like this and make yourself feel uncomfortable?

"Joke! How is it possible, you don't know, Soros saw me and went to say hello to him, that was so touching!"

After following Julian into the car, Carter responds to Julian's jokes with exaggeration.But behind the exaggeration, Carter couldn't help but feel a little melancholy when he thought of Soros' expression just now, and Jim's heartless look.

"Julie, do you think people have two sides?"

"how to say?"

Feeling Carter's emotional change, Julian, who was driving, was a little dazed.He was still laughing and joking one second, why did he suddenly emo the next second? !It doesn't change so quickly, does it? !

"Didn't I accompany Jim on vacation in Hawaii some time ago? After playing for almost half a month, I hardly felt any sad emotions on him. Look at Soros again. From May to now, his brow I haven't loosened it, and I can see some white hair between the temples."

"I just feel that a person like Soros can do anything to make money, no matter what the so-called goodwill or reputation is. I just feel that he should be the kind of person who is ruthless and devil-like."

Think of the nickname of Soros in the future, and the terrorist influence that the countries will turn pale after the successful attack on the British pound.From the bottom of my heart, although the relationship with Soros seems to be good now, Carter has always been a little scared in his heart, and has always been a little wary of this old guy.

Whatever happened, he was basically unwilling to tell him everything.I always feel that the hooked nose may stab me in the back at any time
"On the other hand, Jim is kind, kind, and easy to get in touch with all day long. He also attaches great importance to goodwill and so on. It feels like a passionate and emotional person, the kind of person who can empathize with others very much. But now, let’s talk about them, their friendship of more than ten years suddenly separated, and Soros hasn’t recovered yet, while Jim is eating and drinking, having fun and flying!”

"It feels very divided. If the performance of these two people is reversed, I think it will be more reasonable."

After listening to Carter's narration, Julian's expression became much lower.After murmuring "humanity has two sides", he suddenly parked the car on the side of the road.

Under the gaze of Carter's surprised and confused eyes, Julian suddenly asked a question that was almost completely irrelevant:
"Do you still remember when I lent you 50 US dollars to speculate in silver?"

"Remember! What does this have to do with now?"

Carter didn't speak at a loss, only to hear Julian suddenly say:
"In addition to silver, you have also speculated in gold. Don't you realize that something is wrong?"

"Problem? This has"

Carter's words suddenly stopped.
Looking back carefully at the past, when I speculated on gold, I invested a total of 320 million US dollars.The price of gold rose from US$534 an ounce to US$718 an ounce, an increase of only 34.45%, but his own profit reached more than 1000 million, a profit of more than [-]%!
This is the charm of futures leverage!magic!
But while thinking of this, Carter came back to his senses.
Back then, silver seemed to have futures in it!Moreover, the increase in the price of silver at that time exceeded [-]%!
If I remember correctly, the price of silver fluctuated from about US$11 to the range of US$23-24 per ounce before closing the position.If it is also a futures contract, then when the price of gold increases by only 34.45%, you can get a rate of return of more than 1000%, and the price of silver increases by more than 100%, then your actual rate of return.
How much it is, Carter doesn't know how to calculate it, after all, he has not participated in the specific operation of speculating in silver.It's just that even without specific calculations, Carter at this time also realized that the return Julian gave himself at that time was far lower than the return he could get from real speculation in silver futures.
"You didn't speculate in futures at that time?"

Met with Julian, contact with the past, scenes flashed in front of Carter's eyes.The laughter and the intimate past made Carter unable to believe that the other party hacked his money.

I am unwilling to accept this reality in my heart. If even my most trusted agent, no, he is now a partner.If even he, Julian Robertson, is kidding himself, then
But looking back on this journey, Carter also felt that he seemed to have gone too smoothly.In the case of excluding the so-called power of heaven (the author praises it), such a situation where everything goes too smoothly is often an extremely abnormal situation.

And as the saying goes, if something goes wrong, there must be a demon!
