AIdea. But like about half an hour, 45 minutes later Kara went to the bathroom and he was like bro you really think Shruti is going to say no or what. Even just to get it out of your system? I think you should ask. Aisha gave some sus advice to him. You should actually not ask because then if like you know there was a chance of like playing the slow game and winning her over later now she will never even consider it. Like if you ask her now you'll never be able to like actually build up those feelings inside her. Now it's like puri life to Tori weight Karthi. Maybe someday she'll change your mind. You also need to get get over her. Move on with your life. It. Also Kara is apparently like in the middle of her asylum application. She is not a citizen.
BAsylum application.
AI think citizenship
BI may actually explore Karna cheddar. Seriously.
AI think Punjab. But mostly.
BBro we should have looked it up at least man. Yeah, illegal immigration,
Alegal immigration,
BCorona probe. Yeah legal immigration,
AAsylum applications. Conditions are the strict. Every time it's those who are most impacted.
BActually.
ACivil societies don't work that bro.
BIt's tell me a flaw in that. If you are an immigrant looking for legal immigration and you report an illegal immigrant and it turns out it was an illegal immigrant, you get your slot instead of them. Obviously like this might not be very resource effective one.
AIt's not resource effective too. They can't guarantee someone a slot by sacrificing someone else. Everyone needs to go through the process even if the process is flawed Lord.
BBut.
AIncentivize that slot goes to the next most deserving person.
BIt doesn't go to you but deserving list. Additional factor of how many people did you reward and free up? I don't understand.
AReport on your Jew neighbors and get
Bhigher rank in the SS Jew neighbors immigration law. Lawful.
AAsylum seeking is a very valid way of entering a country.
BDefinitely that is also legal way. I'm saying this person is probably not an asylum seeker.
AThe argument given every time for this type of citizen reporting is that it one creates a very unpleasant society where everyone's looking at each other suspiciously trying to find like if you incentivize a neighbor reporting on their neighbor it makes for a very hostile environment. And 2 the government or the police or whoever is in charge simply does not have the resources to investigate every single one of these complaints. It's like the abortion clinics right? Where like if you suspect that a doctor in Texas has been giving abortions even though it's illegal, you can report them. You can be any random person and you can report them. Yes suspect they are doing abortions
Bbut we penalty.
ABut you're forgetting incentive structures the people who are creating the laws right now are not creating it to create the best system. They are doing it to appease a certain type of voter.
BMay assume are we exactly abidjo system freeze and place K let's say.
AContinuously wet red I bet my feet are matte. Shy mood do shy mood who the shy mode
BMode

AOh, And next to each other to form the infiltration site. Langley mix up all the remaining security tokens and put one face down on each circle on the infiltration site. Return the leftover security tokens to the reserve. Without looking at them, flip this card over and place it on the operations area. Objective Recover the Cuda sample while in cold storage of Langley. Spend an action and discard any three city cards.
BI'm keeping it inside the deck.
CExpensive. Like look at how many tokens you need for each.
AWhy are you doing this? Why not keep it on there?
BThey said Operations Deckna. I mean doesn't matter.
ACold storage. And yeah Allied objective. So you have to be an allied identity to do it. You can't do it. Yeah. So we. We can do this later. After we've collected enough actions.

AThe third person can do it.
BIf I have to move people around and have one action left. I can just do that and then end my turn here.
ASounds good. Last turn. We added a Riyadh visa to Meha Allied identity. And we gave her a Warsaw visa.
BGive me the juice now.
ASo that she could fix these country like walk around and fix them. And come back to Shanghai as and when needed. And I got. Whenever I'm in Moscow, I can give cards to anyone. Very simple. Once per turn. But this is amazing. Bro.
BBro.
AWe're op as now I feel.

CI can handle the two checkpoints in my turn Sydney. In fact Flight B. Oh so amazing. Please. When you pick the token they put my turn first.

CI don't want to chew my juice.
BIt's.
AIt's.
BIt's.
CYeah, exactly. That is correct.
AHow can you.
CI think geographically plus neutral, permanent.
BOh, you also have. You have Jakarta.
AHuh?
BYou have Jakarta.
ASo should we. Let us. Can we finish set up before we discuss. Okay. Oh yeah, that's also true. But Johannesburg, Saigon, Baghdad, or pecking with Indonesia, Bogota, sf, Buenos Aires
Cto slow down persuasion.
AHavana, calcutta, atlanta. Havana and atlanta.
BBut it's the same thing as just one extra neutral card going from his hand. But it's finishing this off. Like he just has to fly to Jakarta.
AOkay, my turn.
BPut the checkpoint. Move to Sydney. Put the checkpoint. Finish. Done.
CThat's true.
BOr you can go to Jakarta. Or you will use Jakarta. Use Mexico City to put the checkpoint. Go to Sydney and use Los Angeles to put the checkpoint. Then you can pick up Los Angeles. That's easier if you have to.
ALooks good to me.
BIt's done. Games of penetration of her.
CThat's true.
AYeah. No, right?
CNo. You have no turns yet.
BDoesn't really matter which identity. But maybe. I don't know. Honestly.
AI need all my cards. No. Abi.
BYes.
CHe land in Sydney. You'll have to move him.
BI will move him.
AYeah.
BI'll start with this then.
CPerfect. Fine.
ALet me be in this one. So that later. Next one. I can remote remove these. And I can remote remove from Baghdad also.
CThat's good, bro.
AYeah. No, no.
BDo it later. It's fine. Sorry. Do you use Jakarta to fly
Aand.
BYeah, basically. Done.
CWho's that?
BI don't know. Must be someone outside. Don't know. And you. And you answered me.
CYou are answered me.
AThis, this, this and this.
BPerfect. Actions. Blue. Nice.
ABlue again.
BSo done.
CNice.
AI can go to Moscow. Start giving to me.
CYou have Saigon also, but we should handle this. Before that
Badd agents.
ALima, Khartoum, Legos, 3, Cunica, 2. Oh, sorry.
BPortrait nature
Aif you're starting with them.
COh, I Was thinking of starting with
Bother than put it down.
AWhat are you starting at?
CI think I'll start with this because. But.
BCan you. What?
AOnly.
BI mean, you could. I could technically go to Novo with my visa and then remote remove from pecking one.
ASo you can earn Saigon.
BYeah.
ANext tournament, you can handle the rest of pecking.
CWhat if I did go to Riyadh, walk to Baghdad, remove one from Baghdad. Can't change identity.
BAnother thing you could do is you could also, in your blue identity, fly to Karachi, change to red, go to Baghdad, get done with Baghdad.
CI can only say one.
BYeah. One.
AYeah. Baghdad ditch. Because Mehripas remote remover. And she has a Riyadh visa, so she can. When she goes and does this, she can handle all of this together.
BShe has a Riyadh visa.
CI do have a Riyadh visa.
BSo then why don't you just go to Riyadh and remove one from Riyadh? And like,
ASo you do this.
CDo I go to Shanghai?
BWashington. I wanted to end it in Washington. Like. Like, just. I don't know. Now when I will be back in Washington.
AThey return Socialism one. You have to move me for sure also.
BBut it doesn't matter if I do it.
AWait, wait, wait, wait. She has a moving thing, right? If you enter a city.
CIf I enter.
AOh, you save Saigon, huh?
CBut Mary turned many.
ABecause anyway, Choksi would have to.
BSo you. You start with blue.
CRed identity.
ANo. Red identity. Red only. Then we can do this.
BHow will you go to Saigon? Sorry?
CTo walk. Neutralize.
AThat's 1.
C1, 2, 3. And end back in. Back in Shanghai.
ADoesn't matter. He's gonna move you anywhere.
CYeah, but he can't leave me there with her surveillance.
BYou have to just walk through this. No.
CEnter.
AEnter. Madlab. You have to move. It's fine.
CWhat if I do this and then he walks me here?
ABut that doesn't help because you not auto remove from allied cities.
COh, yeah, that's true.
AActually, I think it's very useful.
BScar. I mean,
Aone move and then one move her back somewhere out into the Novo.
CMaybe.
BYeah, but how many actions have you used so far, bro?
AYour actions, your actions.
BOne way. Move there. Okay?
AAnd then move it out also.
BI can do that.
AI think it's inexpensive. Like, we're getting rid of three.
BYeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, dude. Oh, of course. On the way,
CCity dog. If I had symptom cards, I could return them.
ABut then why don't you give Choksi a card or something? Choksi give Her Washington.
CHow can he give me.
AYou were in Washington.
COh, give me Washington.
BI kind of. I thought I'll use Washington to fly back to Washington in the future.
ABut curling manage.
BYeah.
ATeam. Wait. What do we do? We just clean this. Okay.
CWalk. Sorry. Fly here.
AYeah, yeah, yeah.
CMove. Neutralize. Take card. Okay.
ABlue, blue, blue. Blue.
CSatellite over south america.
ALondon, London. Johannesburg agent. Yeah, Johannesburg agent.
BBoys, I have to remove. I have to remove you.
CBoth of us.
BYeah, yeah, I know, I know. Wait, so I have to. I have to put you in pecking and get you out, right?
CYeah.
BSo I can make both of your land in the same city basically in Saigon.
ALet's discuss which one.
CYeah, Saigon is good because he has Saigon in Shanghai.
BAlso I can make your land.
CI mean there's actually no reason.
AOh yeah. But I can give you Saigon and Taurus and Virus. Yeah.
BSo where should I end your land?
AIt doesn't matter. But.
BDoesn't matter, huh?
CDoesn't matter. But Saigon's good because whatever reason. And you can use Saigon to fly out. So it's good to be in Saigon. What if you get another blue card right now? So you give me some two different blue cards.
BCool. So she goes here, then back. You go here.
AAnd you enter.
BYeah, I just enter Langley and all this one
CAustralia color Pacific Rim.
BNeutral.
CAt present. Tino Aki card. Wow. Neutral. Pacific Rim. One chokes. You would Tokyo card. You die with it.
BWhen you enter this room, you may scratch two cover to add an event card of your choice. From the reserve to your hand.
CTo your hand. Not even to the day.
BYeah, that's insane.
AThat's pretty good. Wow. Nice.
BI think.
ABut you go down because in your next turn. Okay.
CYou get kicked out.
BOkay. Or in full escalation.
COh, wow.
ASo increase
Beverything is included. All cases are included.
ABoth thick and egg.
BWe're good.
CI'm hoping.
ALondon and Johannesburg.
COkay. Please.
BSo that's one the identity may allow.
AYeah.
BLagos is the only thing.
AYeah.
CActually they draw is not going to be before you get.
ASo this would be two.
BCan you give two cards. But you Buddha and Saigon. So that is just regular share.
AYeah, I can give anything regardless.
CHe can give, huh?
AYeah, I'll give. I can make.
BBut then blue card.
CI can pick blue card up as soon as I change identity.
BShe can fly.
CI can change Saigon build team and
Bthen fly to Lagos.
CNo, but I won't have change identity.
BBuild team.
CChange identity, pick Saigon up. Because he will have to discard Saigon to make safe house. So.
BSo you have Extra actions. No, right now you fly here and do it. No, but how will you fly. It's fine.
AI can fly using Saig,
Bbut.
AAnd she can pick it up easily.
BOh, the same thing. Yeah, it's the same thing.
CYeah, but Safe house. And I won't be able to change identities, which allows me to pick the card up.
AWe can delay that. I agree. But. You can move it. One
Cis good. Yeah, it will be very.
AWe'll just put it in.
BPlus, then either myself, Atlanta may be here. Also, when you enter this room, you may add one. Acid Stick. Got your allied alias for free.
AWhat the.
BYeah, just any assets you don't have space. But do you guys need asset stickers or. We all have maxed up on max. This is a free allied sticker.
CThat's why maxed on blue.
AOnly you can do it, bro, not us.
CYeah, if we infiltrated, we could also do it. I could also infiltrate. I have the necessary cards. I have one. I have Pacific Rim and I have new.
BYeah, but now you. There's no point.
ATechnically, we can replace our asset. Like, we can put an asset sticker over another.
COh, that's allowed?
AYeah, that's allowed.
BSo my Bombay visa is useless.
CAnd my Warsaw visa is also.
AWe can put some expensive. Bro. Like we have this.
CBut then plus minus one.
BThe thing is, if I go through this room now, then we can do this towards the end of the game anyway. Oh, no, maybe. But this will be discontinued. I don't know. Can we infiltrate after the objective was achieved? Because this is just a free.
ALet me see. Assets are worth it. You can take this one suitcase full of money. Instead of scratching a cover, you may check a box below. That will be nice.
CThat's good, actually.
AAnd for you also, portable computing. When you do the infiltrate action, plus minus one. That is there, that can actually help you right here when you are inside that room. But it.
BIt won't help me. My red identity. I won't get it.
AActually. We'll see. We'll enter. We'll see. We'll see if you want this or not.
CYeah, we have to decide what route to take.
AThat's 1, 2, 3. I remote removed. What's my fourth move?
BYou have one more move left.
AYeah, I can go to Moscow.
BGo, because then you can. From there you can send cards also to me or to anyone.
ABut in my next turn, I think Saigon Mehran.
CFor what? Joan.
ACrime boss. Once per day.
CWhat if you changed identity? Oh yeah, but I mean, turns me, Bachiya Sito. But change Identity.
AAtlanta or blue.
CAugust 3rd.
ALegos draw from bottom of this and Bogota. Place an agent in one or more incident to in every city with one more incent tokens in Africa. Yeah. Should I check that rule?
BYeah. Check it because I feel one hour.
CMay I remember reading also? Yes. And 9th house.
BSo now you don't even have to worry about the next escalation. Legos and books. Water.
AYeah.
COkay. Change identity to blue. To blue.
BPeak.
CPeak. Tell me about the.
BRiad.
CPick up Saigon. Make team
Abro. Without any.
CYeah. No extra card. No crying. So three actions over. I have one action left.
BJust fly to Riyadh. No, no. Fly to Lagos first.
ANo, no. The Chokshi is better to do
Byour urgency.
CWait.
AWhy don't you pick Saigon up again?
BFor what? Joy? Just fly to Lagos or Bogota and clean it up in your next turn. Now, it's not a threat, but it'll soon be. So that's the best thing to do.
CI can fly somewhere. I can't fix it.
BNo use fly. There's nothing like. There's nothing impending on the board. So just set it up for your next one.
ANo, I was thinking Saigon is utale. Because then she can come back to Saigon anytime. She will have to come here. No.
BWhy?
AYeah. Okay.
CIn fact,
ANeutral team.
BNeutral team. I will need more cards. Probably soon.
CYeah.
AAnd Riyadhma disease.
BYou okay?
AIt doesn't matter. One third probability.
BI'm just counting. Oh, that is through la. So this is la. La. And then. Then this moves to sf. One more action. I don't have anything else to do. So.
AAnything else?
CBlue. Jax,
Bhonestly, I am. This is no hurry. I can go to Novo and I can get started for this too.
AWashington, But Action token. That would be nice.
BWashington and maybe.
AYeah, that's what I'm saying.
BActually. Let's do that. So I'm set up. I'll get two more cards. I'm more set up for the next one because I have Europe. I have eight and I. I need allied and I need whatever this is
Cyou need to reveal those three. Take penetration.
AYou will.
BSo I'd use two actions to this to sf. So SF is. No, I cannot use this action also. It's fine. So I put it to la.
AYeah.
BI have a Novo visa. Fly to Novo and change alias. And I can enter.
AWhat does your alias do? Oh yeah, you can enter also.
BSo I'll do that.
CBut once he changes to Red, he can't ferry people around. Then it's every man for himself.
BI mean, I can do one ferry huh?
CBut you can't ferry us around the way we use you in your blue identity.
BThat is the.
CNow you are going to be stuck.
AHe can always switch back do things and switch back. So whether extra actions.
BAnd you can always just build a safe house and start.
CIs that his whole character is sharing cards and doing remote remove.
BLet's say you have Atlantis. You can do two actions on the fly anyway. You can build a safe house. And two action. So I move fly to novo.
AThat's two.
BI switch to Jackie White and I infiltrate
Cand do action. Token of Thalia,
BNorth America.
CNay move.
BIdentity in north america. Yes, to north america. Oh,
ANice.
BLiterally don't know.
ANow it's looking good.
CYeah.
AOh, no. But for this eight or eight to
Bbuild a tunnel, they have to need. What? What is it?
ABig numbers.
CBig numbers.
BEight plus one eight.
AYou have two eights.
CHe has three eight.
BThree eight, one six. I have.
AOkay, we'll calculate.
BYeah, we'll do everything. Sure. Action. I'm piling up.
CYes, you can give him your tools.
BLondon, one minute. Sorry, that objective was done.
AOh yeah.
COh yeah. Shouldn't we read?
AYeah, you read. What was the objective called? Recover.
BLearn more about Medusa Deployment Plan 188. I think this is the fastest we have done an objective.
CYeah, within two turns. The Soviets have grafted the final deadly strain of the Medusa plague onto Ragbeat pollen, inspired by the Japanese Fugo balloon bombs from World War II. Next month they intend to launch Operation Lion's Tomb. A series of weather balloons loaded with millions of grains of contaminated pollen. Once the balloons reach their targets, they will release the pollen and there will be nowhere to fight. Take one action token and give it to one player. Remove all checkpoint tokens from the board.
AOkay, my turn.
BI know. AD agents. London.
ALondon, my disease. Kiev, my disease. Okay, now let's plan your this turn.
BOh yeah.
AYou have
Bcondition whose keypad totals 10 or more? So then I. I will discard.
AYou need blue and red.
BI need eight later.
CYeah, So I can just remove one of your eights.
AEight. And Africa. Dono eights.
CEight minute. Eight minute.
ASo instead of you dropping this Africa, why don't I give you some like some number here so that you use that instead.
CLike Atlanta.
BI can also pick up any Soviet card with an extraction.
AThat's also fine.
BYeah, also look, now we need North America, Europe, Diversity. I can pick up Soviet cards whenever. Whenever I want. But if we we do reach here. What how many we need to. When the manufacturer spend an action. Discard any Four city cards. So that I can pick up from your. How many? How many are there bread?
CNo, can he pick up from inside the one.
BOh, there's only one.
COf my volume's also good because you'll have to discard two. You have exactly six. If you have to discard two, two plus four. I have to discard six exactly. So now you have exactly six.
AHe could have picked up. But yeah, just for contingency.
BYeah, I will pick up because I don't want to let the Tokyo card go because that is just.
ANow you can pick up the one I also gave you. So you can pick both. Yeah. Oh, ye. Okay. Anyway, one action is done. Second action remote remove, right?
BYeah.
AActually, let's wait. It's not an urgency. I can go to Kiev and remove.
BNo, why don't you go to Bogota or. Atlanta? Wait, escalation. I got the Bogoda
Cescalation.
ABut many like. No, actually I can just get back to Moscow.
BHow many actions you have left? Three.
AThree?
BBut you need two plus one for done.
ANo, two plus one remove.
BBut then you'll be stuck here next turn. I mean, but you got a scar.
AOh, there.
BWhat do you have? You have only one scratched.
ANo, I was thinking. What do you guys think?
BSure.
AYeah. Wait for kiev to get three, then go remove all three ones because 1, 2, 3, 4.
BThen maybe ferry the team SF Sadhenga. The SF is out of the picture as a potential burst.
CNo, won't be out of the picture. Char escalations working.
AOne. There. 1. I gave you a card. 2. Move the team 3 remote removed from Baghdad. 4. Should I just fly to Atlanta so I can go next turn by chance?
CBut you can only share cards from Moscow. I would like you to stay in Moscow
Aeasily.
BSure.
ABecause you also have Riyadh to save. Baregi. Okay. Actually, Riyadh's not an issue right now.
CBogota is probably also because like, let's
Bsay everything is equally an issue.
ABogota is not. Oh.
CIf you draw a card right now, neutral and you are in Moscow, I have a chance to pick it up.
AHow?
COh, I can't take. No, you can only give.
AYou will have to come to Moscow. Equally. I think you should just do both.
CHow do I do both?
BAtlanta.
AFine.
BAtlanta.
AYeah. Legos.
CCan't be helped.
ADo we in Disney? No, London. This agent Kiev disease.
BLondon may bought the musty Oria cave disease. Fly to Pyongyang. Solve Pyongyang. Yeah. There's no surveillance.
CYeah. Okay.
AAnd you have an extraction if needed.
BOh yeah.
COkay. Fly To Pyongyang. Discard what? Bombay?
ASure.
CNot really. Doesn't matter. Wait. Actually I should keep Bombay just for card variety. Discard one of these.
BYou're not in red. No. You would have removed all Remove one
AChar Oge Char action. You want to use an extra one to remove one from one extra from
Beither of these you remove from Pyongyang. If you're removing because we will build a new. We aspire to build a neutral team. We don't aspire to build a red. But then the red identity can remove everything.
ASo I don't know.
BBut how you change it there?
CYeah. I couldn't have flown to Pyongyang without blue identity. And I can't change identity in Pyongyang.
BYou can go to no, it's fine. Okay. You remove one more from Pyongyang then it's not a threat then for a while.
AIn fact, Next one. We were just debating whether to use this for Pyongyang or not.
CI don't think so.
AI mean. Yeah, we can take that decision later. Next one. Legos and Pyongyang. Dalvoy.
BOne thing May I could have done is gone to Washington. Gone here. Taken to cover. Pick the rearrange the event card and used it. But no, it's too cover gone for that.
AAnd save.
BMy action tokens later.
AAction tokens. Bro. Amazing. You have to go later. Yeah. First solve come back to no. Then infiltrate. You can't do the other way around.
BOh yeah, yeah, yeah.
ASo think about how can you solve.
CHe's in red identity right now.
BTo hop from Rome.
AYeah.
BBut then I need.
AWhy do you need that?
BI need to discard also in the end. No.
A4. But you can pick up also no action. See? Coming here.
BPick up. How many Reds are there?
ALots.
BI saw only one.
COh no. He's right.
AWhat the.
BYeah.
CI thought Reds discarded was only one. Oh, Because I'm gonna keep as I have a discard new one.
BSix discard cards.
CBut you can pick one up One only. You'll have to discard no to fly.
BBut then my Tokyo card will go. Which is.
CWhy will your Tokyo card go? What am I missing?
AIf that's irrespective of going there and
Bsolving no one card remains. Seven cards. Six will be discarded one. My idea was this will remain. And this is fulfilling all these three?
CYeah.
BPacific Rim 1 and Tokyo
Cneutral
Bagain. We have to wait exchange cards for that.
CTokyo is too good a card.
AI see.
BFlying is the problem. No, that's the main problem. Otherwise
AAction to. Okay, so no vote flight. That's true.
BThird action. To fly back to Novo.
ASo Idari Identity change. So let's just play it out.
BNo vote Identity change.
AIdentity change.
BFly to Bogota.
AFly to Bogota. Remove one.
BFour actions gone.
AYeah.
BThen fly back to Novo.
AFive actions change identity.
BSix actions gone. So six actions gone.
AI have now used Infiltrate do action token Milga.
BThen I have four. But yeah. Then I'll have to do this.
AYeah, you'll have to do that.
BI'll have to do this. And do we still have enough tokens? 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. No. Build tunnel four. Then traverse through tunnel five.
CI feel like it's fine.
AI think Khatam Gar better. I am on the opinion fair.
CBut like I think if we have to pick between the two, I would rather save.
BI would also pick that because there'll be something new that comes up then also which you have to save. I mean this is just one extra surveillance sticker. It's fine.
AYeah. I'm like this is not polluted. We'll get.
BIf we were close to these outbreak tokens running out. Even if 2 fato right now, we still are far away like from and you all can do clean up in your terms.
CYeah.
AThat's one. I'm counting the actions.
BYeah, you count the actions. Two. Blue or yellow hair Europe.
A3.
B3 Discard city cards. Actually, it doesn't say to use an act. Oh, these are actions. Which ones am I discarding? I think I'll get a this. These two are removed so I can pick them up later.
AYou don't want to discard the Tokyo, right? Huh?
BSo ABHI have to discard two totaling ten or more. Okay. So how many actions spent are you counting?
A1.
C3.
B23 4.
A4.
BAnd then I have to reveal a city card to go through the tunnel. 5. When you enter this room, take one Siddhi card from the player. Oh. Free Siddhiga from the player discard pile.
AOkay. Anyway, too late.
BFive.
CFive means ache side Cursing Interaction token.
AClinical trial alone Hospital bed. The restraint shows sign of heavy use. 6.
B6.
A1, 2, 3456778. When you enter, take an action token. So basically don't do that.
BYeah.
ASeven. Seven. Oga. Spend an action. You have to do that.
BSpend an action on discard Any four city cards.
AYeah. So eight. Eight total actions used.
BYeah. Four plus four
Cor objective achieved.
B102.
AWhat was the objective called?
BSabotage the manufacturing facility. Actually maybe this could have been saved. But maybe actions might have not been enough. I think three Four.
CYou discovered the manufacturing facility within Pearl Compound. Stacks of empty supply crates imply that the Soviets have already manufactured a large quantity of the plague. You render the sensitive equipment inoperable with a few subtle adjustments. That should take months to locate and repair. Take two action tokens and distribute them among the players as you like.
AShe can travel and fix.
CBecause then I can fix.
AOkay. Yeah, Bro. Final objective.
CBut guys, I'm worried about this.
AJohannesburg, Bogota, Pacific rim.
BNice character. Or abhi. I think variability. So if somehow. Or if you can just give me more cards.
AYeah, later.
BWashington also I can go and I can use Toronto. But one card will go Washington Valley.
AFree flight to Toronto.
BActions also.
AYeah.
BPacific. Pacific Rim. One or ally.
ACool. I'll do that. Go to Riyadh and clean all. Clean all
BLondon.
AWhat do I do with the other?
BYeah, you can't do either.
CYou can head to Moscow.
AYeah, I can go to Moscow, give a card to someone. Never have to worry.
CI have. I mean, I will try to remove one before leaving. Then I'll try to fix. Wait, what will I do? What am I doing?
AYou're fixing this? You're fixing all of these.
CTraveling How?
AI can figure he can help. Maybe
Bsoon. As soon as I go to Washington.
AOkay. I fly out of Atlanta and cure all three. And I get a symptom card. I'll use. Oh, neutral team would be nice.
BYeah,
Abro. You can move this to London. Next one.
BWhich one?
AThe team.
BBut I have to. As soon as I'm in that identity,
Ayou can switch back, bro. Anyway. You have to switch back.
BYeah, I have to switch.
ASo greeting Johannesburg is. 1, 2, 3. 1, 2, 3. Yeah, we can. You can keep less focus on these two because the team can clean it up.
BFive, maybe One, two. If it doesn't matter.
AYeah, okay.
BSure. Whose turn? Your turn.
AWait. London Disease Cube.
CYou have to change identities.
AYeah. Cartoon. All of these are getting spicy.
CWhat if I build safe house? Change identity, remove all the. Then I use Lima to fly.
AYeah.
CAnd walk to. Oh, you are not red.
AYeah. By changing identity might be expensive.
CYeah. Because I need travel from my blue identity.
AIf you get rid of it right now, then never again do we have to come back.
CBasically, if I change it. And if I build safe house, I can change. Change back two actions to solve Pyongyang. No. 3 actions. Build safe House Chain change.
AAre there any red ones? No. Red. Other red ones? No. Everything's neutral or blue. Yeah. I think it's worth it. So that we never have to worry.
CSo build safe house chain Change.
AYeah.
CDo I head somewhere?
AYeah. Then head somewhere. So Kitna safe house.
BHead to car. Oh no. SG is the.
AYeah, safe house. Change. Change.
CWait, I think it's enter. Enter. So just being in that city. Neutralize.
ABut then you're back into your.
CBut then why not then do three actions to remove agents. At that point it's the same.
BBut why are you even. I. I think you don't need to do that. Because escalations we don't have to. We might finish the game.
AThat is also true.
BSo just remove one and try to solve for the next escalation.
COkay, so what
Abased on.
CNeighbor to safe house neighbor.
BNow, Lima or Bogota?
CLima. Bogota is an option. Riyadh. Khartoum is an option.
AThis is better. No, these are all both three.
CRemove one.
AYeah.
CUse Riyadh visa.
ARemove two. But sure, go ahead. Yeah, that's what I said. Use Riyadh. Go here or move on. Go here. Remove one.
CHow many actions?
AYeah, let's see. One. Let's just count.
CYeah.
A1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5.
CTwo, 4, 5, 6, 7. But many team cities without using a God. Yeah. Chill. Max. 3,000. 3, 4, 5, 6.
BLondon.
ANice. Oh,
BI don't think enough turns up, but. Oh, action. Yeah, no, first before I. Before I change aliases, I thought I'll pick up some red cards from here to like maximize chances here. Because that. This is the only time I can do it.
ASo I'll pick up eight my show candidates.
BYeah, yeah.
CTeeny. I think.
AWow.
BCandidates are Moscow, 289. Asia, Europe. Asia, Asia.
AWhat else can you do?
BAction. Two actions.
ALet's just get rid of these and say. He's not started.
BYeah, yeah. Then I change identity.
AThat's one.
BOne gone.
ANo, no, no, no.
CDon't.
ADon't count now. Don't count. One.
BOkay, whatever. One. I changed alias. One, this moves to London.
ATwo.
BYou. Where should I move you to?
CKarachi.
ANo, no. Why not Lagos? So I can go Lagos.
BIt's better.
CWait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Did we infect?
BOkay, yeah.
AWhenever I enter a city, I think
Byou should move to Lagos. Only there's no other better candidate. This is under surveillance. You want to move to S.
ALegos is good because I'll remove. No.
BYeah, yeah, exactly. That's three. One. Action. Three.
AYeah.
CThree actions. Change identity. Move team.
AThree.
BYeah, we don't count it like that. How many? How many? Five actions, Actually.
AHow?
BToronto.
AAnd walk.
BAnd walk.
AFive.
BFive. Total. Six. Seven. How many actions do I have left? Seven.
CTwo.
ATwo. You can't do the action there. Even if you reach there. Two.
BOkay. Third. I need one. I just need one more action token. Yeah, I could have just finished the game.
AI mean you'll be gambling on that.
BYeah, like gambling on finishing the game. With one more action token. Mary, starting of the turn. 4 2 4 1 2 +. They have designed it like that.
CYeah.
BOkay so then just do five actions. Five and meet the Washington.
ASo wait that's not super urgent right now.
BWhat else can be done?
ABecause you're anyway eating into your extraction so
Cdisease cubes identity.
AInstead of moving me here because this you can also solve. I was here, right? Can you get me to London in two? You can wait.
CCan't you do London remotely?
AOh yeah, I can do London remotely in my other if you're at a
Bsafe house, change alias and do London.
CBut then you can't get to MOS Moscow and I For what it's good to have sergeant in Moscow.
AIt doesn't matter.
BThe game is ending.
CYeah. Yeah. I guess you're just doing like damage control.
BSure.
CSurveillance.
BOkay. Okay sure. Abikito. Done or may auto.
AHe Singh used right now to move to this. You might you're in your dad identity blue. Why don't you switch and switch back?
BUnless there's something to be done with the red identity. Some card to be prepared.
CNo, you please stay in blue. It's good to have you in blue.
BOkay cool.
AFine.
BIstanbul.
CSeven.
BOkay perfect. Perfect. This is the max best keys to enter. Yeah, you guys just have to do cleanup. You guys just have to clean up on your turns.
CYeah.
AAtlanta. Pegging.
COh auto cleaner.
BGood call.
AMy don't Yeah, I remove obviously and then change identity. Yeah.
CAnd Berlin and London.
AYeah.
CCan you do both or can you only do one?
AI think Berlin.
BBerlin. East Berlin.
AI can do as many as I want.
COkay yeah yeah. Paris. Connected.
BOkay,
Aso change identity and remove one to. Hey, that's two. Three. So I can either remove one more or remove one of these.
COr Berlin. Actually yeah.
ASatellite over europe.
BOver europe.
AYeah.
BIn ad agent.
AOh yeah. Havana. Baghdad.
BPerfect.
CM peak.
ASf or buenos aires. Huh.
BFly to Lima, go clean up in Bogota and then come to North America. So you don't not in surveillance.
CDo I have enough tones? I can remove only one from Bogota.
BThen fine.
CTake care. You can land me in Mexico City.
BYeah. So
Cremove walk. Probably Manila. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. Prague. What do I discard?
BDoesn't matter.
ADoesn't matter.
BEast border. Okay cool. Now I just Toronto Washington two actions. Three actions. I have Tokyo. Four actions.
AGo back, go back, go back, go back. Permanent asset. You you will get right. What are your assets? Show me. See if we can give you if this Bombay visa can be replaced. Right?
CHe never travels.
BBut then we have to depend on two.
ABro. You're fully maximized. Bro.
BI don't want to say I don't know you. Now you decide. Because I've seen it. Now I don't know.
AAh, clearly you have it.
BHuh?
AClearly you have.
BNo, I don't. I actually don't know. That's why I'm covering my hand. I don't know whether I have it.
AOh, it's a number one.
CNo, no.
AI'm saying even if it's worth to get a great asset on this guy.
BOkay, cool. The plus minus one thing.
CPlus minus one is red identity. Is.
AI'll tell you.
CIs this permanent safe house counted as an asset? Yeah.
ANo.
BAcid is just an upgrade.
COkay.
AYou don't want to waste. Yeah.
CInstead of losing cover, do this blue identity already.
APlus minus one. Short wave radio Human Bikar. As an action, discard three city cards of the same affiliation. To change a team in the Cobbler City to the affiliation of the cards. You can change the affiliation of the team, but you need to be in
Bthe same city as the team.
ANo, no, no, no, no. The team needs to be in whatever city you mention.
CHere maybe that's too expensive.
BIt's too specific. Also.
CYeah. Like you have to be in that city.
AIt's not.
CDiscard three cards matching.
AYou don't have to be in that city.
CNo, no. But be in this city. City.
AThis team needs to be in the city.
BBut it's actually imag think about if we make it work.
AYou don't have to do.
BThere's so much effort to put make a new team. What if we have to do multiple objectives and this is actually not a bad.
AIt's not. It's okay. Complicated experimental medicine. As an action, remove all disease cubes from your city. As an action, you may remove a disease group from an adjacent city.
BTechnically, I honestly feel we're changing team color. Both better.
COff the alliance you want to change.
BAt that point you might as well make the team. So then you put the other 13 tick.
CI think is best.
ASo first you do 1-22-3334.
BI didn't have that number. I didn't say anything. But I didn't. I didn't influence like yeah.
CThe decision
Bsix and Asia
Cdon't have six. Do you have six children. Six,
Bsix and Asia. Okay. How many actions? Two, three, four. I didn't use any extra music.
AYeah, bro. You can move me out to a safe house.
BWhere is she?
AShe's there because to fly out, she'll need. No,
Bsure. Yeah. Can do.
CYeah. I'll get the card to choke next turn.
BWhat?
AWhat Gets cards.
CHe needs six, right?
AHow will you get the card to him?
CIf it's a red card, I go pick it up and discard it for him. Asa Kuch. I'm seeing Matlab.
AI don't know if it's a red card then if it's already discarded, then he can directly pick it up.
BWhy would you pick it?
CThere's a bunch of sixes. There's Johannesburg. There is sf.
ABut
Btwo karak. I can put you in sf.
CBut then what will.
AHow will you get it? You guys can't exchange intel.
BI'll do is red card.
AYou guys can
Bdo you have six.
CHi. If you want, we can both meet in sf. Then I can give you sf. That's legal.
AYeah.
CAnd Jakarta.
BOr you just come to Washington.
CNo, we can't exchange SF unless we are both in sf. These are your three options.
ASF is the closest, but yay. Sf. Kasa podcast, I guess.
BToronto, Flight of a rock. Taylor Swifting.
CBut drop me in SF now.
BOh, that way. Yeah. Fine. To fill one extra.
AWait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Sf. That is one utility. But don't. The other utility is going to a safe house so that you can solve other.
CWhat is there to solve?
AFor example, and other.
CBut can't you fly to Moscow and solve Kiev? That's pretty easy for you.
BThe plus minus one would have actually
Ahelped right now, bro. Yeah.
BNo, it wouldn't.
AHow about.
BI mean, might as well put in the energy to get me the six so the game ends.
CYeah,
BI think this is better. Hopefully if I pull you on to the perfect extra turn one or use.
ANumber. Oh, we don't know we have to
Buse that only root.
CYeah.
BEscalation.
AOne discard something doesn't really Sydney Mathine. Sydney.
CSydney. Sydney or Sydney.
BOne, two exchange card. Then I can use.
AFour, five, six, seven. Don't have enough. Let's hope we get I pull a six or something.
CBecause you're headed to.
BSo end your turn in Moscow.
CHe has to go to.
BNo. But then how will you give it to me just. You have to give it in your turn.
AI can end it in novo.
CYou can come to novo if you get a six.
AYeah.
BNo, he will get the card after stone.
ASaigon.
CAlso true.
AAtlanta one.
CI got
AHavana.
CAtlanta Havana.
AOkay, my turn.
BCan you end in a place where you can give me. Can you come end your turn in Washington? That look best. Actually no.
CHe went his turn in Moscow. No, he can give anything from there.
BBut we have to wait for one more turn for his then. So I will only get SF and I can do the.
AYeah, I could. I'm thinking I also need to be in this identity.
BBut we are gambling on you getting a six. I think. Then you have to do two hours. Honestly not. It's not bad ending my ending the game in my next turn also. It's okay like we'll. We have to just then keep doing cleanup till then. No.
CWhat if I try going to.
BWhat?
CBut what if I try penetrating?
BActually Pacific Rim. Neutral. Sorry, neutral. Oh six. Asia.
ABut yeah, that's more. Less complicated.
BRabi, what is that impending risk?
ASydney.
CSydney. Sydney. Yes.
BI can move the team to Sydney in like two. Two actions in my turn. But
Ayeah.
BWhere are you? So are you in the Moscow visa identity?
ASo that switch Moscow three, four Symptom card. Yeah.
COr knee pending action.
BBuffy.
AOkay.
CEvent.
BRight.
AWe can use it South America. Let's just use it Allow to discard a card. Otherwise if you don't. We don't have a strategic way to use it.
BTK but you can peek him if we use that.
CWhat do you mean? I'm in my blue identity. I can peek.
BOkay. Okay. It doesn't matter. It's not.
AI had to.
CYours is on quiet night. So I peeked.
BOh, you peeked. Okay.
COkay. Now I pick up SF and what do I discard?
AWait, what do you do?
CSorry. I pick up SF.
BThis Whatever bro. Doesn't matter. Oh yeah. Wait. If you might enter.
CNorth America allied. I have seven total.
BOkay. And end in Washington.
CYeah. Two. I have one action left.
AWhat Identity blue.
CBig action based team move
Bactually.
ABecause Choksi will have to move it after that.
B2, 3, 4.
CI mean Atlanta.
ASydney is LA. So.
BHuh.
CBut Atlanta. How can I make Sydney easier?
BThere's nothing you can do. Remote powers, you know, nothing.
CEgg ton waste. No one can think of anything.
BJust move this to New York if nothing.
CFine.
BYeah. Doesn't matter. But whatever.
CPick up essay.
AWhere are you? In washing.
BAnd to do what?
CBuzz buzz. For shits and giggles. Build safe house. Psf. Build safe house. Then I have to discard one more card to fly to Washington.
BWhy are you flying to Washington?
CBecause there's a safe house.
BDon't walk to Washington. Build safe house and walk. Doesn't matter why are we.
COkay, fine. I have to discard too, huh?
BBut.
AFive away right now, right?
BSix away.
AOne, two, three, four and five.
BWe'll have to be moved two.
ABut ah. So we got two action zone. Did we? No, no. Yeah, both are doing because of pick SF is three. Okay.
CSo I can only move the team.
BAlso there is one issue I just realized with MIHA or doing the if that all card comes beach me.
AOh yeah.
BDrop four. So you will still be fine. Now what do you need? Soviet new. How many will be able to keep in your hand?
CI have to keep any. I will be able to keep two.
AOne plus four.
CYeah.
BSo you just have to keep Bombay. No, you need Bombay. This and this. That's the. You can use one action to remove the symptom card.
AOh yeah.
COh yeah. Okay. Fuck the symptom card.
BDon't. The safe house.
CN. I have one action. I have one action. The symptom card. Now tell me how to pick. Remove one from this.
AYeah, makes sense.
BOkay. Okay. If you could. If you could just walk, you'll be able to hold one more card.
ANo, bro.
BOkay, fine.
ACool. Kiev. May disease cube. Bogota, London. May disease cube.
BDisease cube.
AYes.
BOkay. Be. You'll manage.
CYou said three I need, right?
BYou need Asia neutral.
CAsia neutral.
BYou need Asia neutral, Soviet and six. So you need these three cards.
CThese three for sure.
BSo these four expendable. Okay, cool. Done. So now I just have to do cleanup. You want. We want to move this to.
AYou can now move that back in fact to Sydney. Sydney. To Sydney. Yeah.
COkay.
AAtlanta. Atlanta. So that's two. Two.
BI have extra actions also. I can go or immediately.
ATell me the names of the cities.
BAtlanta, Havana. Atlanta, Havana, Bogota. I use two actions. I go to Mexico City. Two actions use. Go to Atlanta. Remove one. Three actions. Four. Five. Five actions. Done.
AYeah.
BAnd all good.
CTurn.
AYeah.
BShould I use two more and go back to Washington in case satellite. I don't want to get scarred suitcase.
CClose.
AWe didn't optimize for it.
CYeah, we had to penetrate no Khartoum,
ARiyadh disease queue begging
Cto handle their pecking. Your tone.
AAt least either. Say I can give cards to someone I don't need.
BNo one needs it. It's done, bro. Just do whatever.
CI mean, not that it's urgent, but Khartum and Bogota are the two.
AFly to Bogota. Remove one. That's two actions.
CHe has to remove one disease.
ASeeing if I can do Khartum also. No. Right. Fine.
BEither Surveillance.
CDefinitely. That's true.
AEverything safe, right?
CYou had one job.
APlace a Pacific Rim, Riyadh. One disease cube. Bagota.
CAll good.
BSure.
APeak, Peking, Rio, London.
BPenetrate. Then you have infiltrate. Infiltrate?
CPenetrate.
BNeutral and Soviet, which you have. Then you need six and Asia, which you have.
AWait, wait, wait.
COh, I also get.
AYou can also get?
CYeah, everyone can get. But I am also full.
APick up discarded car that the tracking device. Peaking is not useful.
CPeaking is so useful. Shut the up.
BI mean many times we do come to know what is going.
CYeah, peaking is.
BBut yeah, it's not like. What are we replacing it with?
CMy blue identity.
BWhat will we replace it with?
CListen to me. In my blue identity which has maximum mobility, I can be at build safe house and travel. You have given me a Riyadh visa. This identity does not need a visa.
BIt does.
AWe decided that last time.
CI feel like. Diseased control center.
BI'm sure there'll be some. There will be some pushback for sticking.
AAs an action, remove all disease cubes from the city.
CNot replacing but peak or pickup.
AAs an action, you may remove a disease cube from an adjacent city. Where you can be flying to Karachi or something. And removing from Riyadh.
CI don't know. I don't think these are particularly enticing.
AInfiltrate neutralization. Remove one or two. That could be.
CThat could be good.
AGenerically useful.
CYeah.
BNeutralization.
COne or two.
BBro. Peaks are better.
CPeak is prescience. Bro.
BOutbreaks are not even going to matter in the next game. Like they will matter. But we don't care about surveillance anymore. We just care about running the counter of seven. But maybe remove the Riyadh visa. Honestly.
CExactly. Bro. He stretched and missed the best part of this. It's called Gunbrella.
BYeah, yeah, I know. Okay, so wait. How many actions you have left did you cover? Counting that.
COne, two, three.
BDone.
CAnd acquire target. Right.
AViolent gold storage of Langley. Spend an action card and discard any three city cards.
CAny three. And now tell me what to read.
A226.
BBE zero budget Next game.
CLast game you recovered the CODA sample and put a convincing placebo in its place. The CIA won't be able to use it. No one will be harmed by Coda. Again. What a lie. No further information.
BMaybe this is an alternate reality.
AAll objectives succeeding Czech cities.
CSo we get only one attempt at December.
BOh, it was like that last time also.
AYeah.
CI don't remember.
BYeah. Yeah, I think so.
ABye. Surveillance is racked up now. Coffee?
BThat's fine.
CWhat's the date today?
BSomeone please 29th Bro. 1 4th of the year is over
CClaudia time as well. Claudia
Ahave text tomorrow cartoon Nice Bogota. It's fine. We won't be making save house. I think certain passport. Please check legacy deck. Objectives. Legacy deck. Okay. Draw this card and read the back. During the step three at the game first open the following do 28. Assets test pilot. While in test pilot city. Whatever you write spend an action to remove a satellite taken token from the game.
BAny.
AAny prescription pills. Your hand limit is increased by one. While this alias is active.
BThat's not too bad.
AYeah, it's actually decent.
BWhile this alias is active,
Ayou have to discard
Bblue aliases. Maximized problem.
AYeah. Even there is a red alias we maximize. This one is good.
BActually this is pretty good for you, right?
AYeah.
BThis is better than the prescription pills. I think Sabik's intelligence helped a lot.
CThis game was a breeze.
BIt's going to push bite in the back next game. I think they must have designed it that way.
CWe are like oh Sabik bhai bhai bhai.
BDecember End of December.
AHere your satellite. Okay, so we have four budget.
BThese don't occur Users on action may remove a disease cube from an adjacent city. Remove all disease groups safer.
AWe are not getting a safer side. Not helpful, Bro.
BI think these two. We should get this. You take this, I take you. Always cleaning disease. And you can just. Whichever alias you use to clean disease, you use that.
CHe does actually he does. From neutral. No disease.
ANo.
CRemote.
AFrom your city.
BThere has to be given to neutral. Actually for one game you can remove it.
ACovering this whole area. We never have to travel.
BWhat about can you take all removal? No, but we our new max. This is a.
ASo I don't have to. When I'm on disease duty, I don't have to shift to this.
BWhat is the other?
AAs an action discard. As an action discard a city card to place a safe house into the matching city or remote safe house. As an action discover city card. To move a team to the matching city.
CUse Kia Headobar.
AI know, but still. Actually I don't know. I'm not convinced.
CThey're both equally unlikely. Like actually no. For this the team has to exist. Be of the correct alliance and you have to have a city card. Three things need to happen. For this you only need to.
AThat explains why.
BWe can put assets over assets. This guy's an infiltration master.
CPenetration penetration.
BNext game may be one of these three bees. This can only be reached through. Like this. Like this.
COkay. I'm hitting.
AJust write yes futures on Google.
BMinus 0.5% and cl.
ACl futures.
BOil future 103 oh it came down.
AI saw one headline 103 is pretty high. 100.
BIt's pretty high because they have been trying to keep it below. Oh my. Expected to go above 110. Brand Oil prices exceed 114 what is brand? How's it different?
AHas no oil has different specifications based on where it's being produced. Brent is produced in Europe. Wtf? Which is C. CL is produced in
Cus
Aso as you can imagine Europe in oil is more expensive because it's easier to get to Asian countries than American oil. Oh but if this persists CL will rise equivalent to Brent because then people will start importing from.
BIt's not many manufacturing difference it's just
Anormal oil only it's just different light.
BIt could have been sourced from the
Asame place but it's slightly different. They're not exactly the same. They're not fungible assets but people can use. Cos
BJapan.
AThat's why I'm asking
BK minus 5.
AJust the stocks, bro.
BThe stocks.
AKosp minus 4%.
BYou do know right now that America is at war. Like not technically war with Iran, conflict with Iran, but they also raised. They've lifted the sanctions on Iranians.
AYeah,
BIt. It's
Ayeah percent downs huge.
B5% down or 4.
ANikki, you said no, it's 5% down. Because then you're not just buying, you're also gaining some volatility premium on top of it.
BSell what?
ASell puts. You can sell one put on whatever you want to buy.
BBut to sell like I have to buy, right?
ANo, no.
BI still don't understand properly. I tried understanding and I'm very confused. I understood what is called but I don't understand. It's too scary for me.
ACash. Selling puts happens in hundreds of shares. You can't do one share like minimum amount 5,000.
B$5,000 will be at risk. No,
AExplain.
CI can explain. I think.
BNo, I also kind of understood. I know, call me $300 worth can give you 3,000 worth of profit.
AIt's a leverage instrument.
BYes, but when you say 5,000 like how much of the money is at risk? Max?
ANone of it is at risk.
CThat is not at risk. The
Aif you have the money to back your put that you've sold, nothing is at risk. You're just saying, let's say Google DOSO BesPay 200. That just means you're willing to buy at 200 irrespective of the price later. So if it stays above 200, you just collected the premium of the put without actually doing anything. If it stays out, if it googles that. I think it's a little hard to explain. Like if you don't know the fundamentals. But when you sell a put, someone will pay you money because they bought the put from you. So that money is your premium. Okay.
BOkay.
AIf it remains above 200, you're just saying I will buy it. Put option. Usnabola option later. Kabibi jobi price. Nikola ready.
CYou are committing to buying at 200.
AYeah, committing to buying 200. Abida. I won't sell it at lower. If it's. If it's at 180, I will sell it to you instead of selling it to the market.
BOkay, okay. Since I gave a commitment to buy it.
AExactly. So if you anyway wanted to buy at 200, do this and get that small amount of money from him.
BRight? But what if it does not go well? What if tomorrow it goes to 230?
AThen yeah, then you will only get the premium and you won't get the stock.
BBut I still get something.
AYou get the premium. No, he gave you some money for that privilege of selling it to you at 200.
BSo then how will I ever lose money in this?
AIf it goes to 180, you lost $20, right? Like you, you bought it from him at 200. If you instead you could have bought it from the market at 180. Technically you lost money.
BI lost money, but I still. It stays with.
AIf you're long on the stock in the long run, if you anyway wanted to buy it at 205,000.
BWhen you say is the minimum amount. Approx.
AAmount. Each put option is in hundreds of shares. So one put option doesn't mean one share, it means hundred shares. That's it.
CWhich is why one put option is like usually 2 to 3000, at least
A500 something. Right?
BBut so.
AYou will just nothing will happen like that person will exercise the option. Correct. And why I'm like telling you, right, this is better time to do this Is volatility higher? Options prices are priced higher right now. Because if volatility is high, people will pay more premiums.
BAt what time do you usually buy this? But then this seems like an easier way to make money. Like why doesn't everyone do it?
ANo, it's not. There is no net profit. Like you're not everything expected value zero. You're not making any money by doing this. It's just a different Way to express what you want.
CYeah, he says like this.
BBut then why do I do what?
AYou're expressing a different opinion than just buying a stock when you do this.
BI don't care about opening. I want money.
ABro. Whenever you. You're expressing your opinion now also you're just doing it in a naive way, which is buying a stock. You're expressing your opinion. Right?
BBy buying a stock at a discount with. With the intention I've got a Sasta. In the future it'll be how long on the stock? Okay.
AI'm just saying there are different instruments and you can make different shapes.
BSo if this basic is 220 and 200 example. So why. Why is someone ready to sell that to give that money to me?
CThat is a question I've often asked. But I have realized the market is so big, there is someone who's.
AWho's always winning on the other side. He's betting on the fact that. He's betting on short term. You're betting long term. If it rebounds. Yeah. The put itself. Yeah.
BSuppose it goes to.
CI saw it coming and I still jump scared.
BSee. Suppose it goes to like 210 and I. I buy it at the 200. Whatever. Do I get that premium? Plus I get it at 210.
ANo, you don't get the stock anymore.
BRight. You. I just get the premium. You just get whenever you money I got. But if it goes little below 200, it goes to 190. I get 190 worth of shares for 200 each. And then I just sit on.
AAnd the premium, previous premium.
BAnd then I just sit on it and the date for me, it crosses 200. And I want that money. I can just sell it quickly and take the money and effectively I don't lose a lot.
AExactly. But there is a catch here, right? Let's say you think the valuation of these stocks are low right now and I want to buy. You sell a put. Let's say you think. You never got to own the share that you wanted. You only got the premium.
CSo the number you buy the put for the cost, you buy like.
ANo, no, no. All I'm saying is one risk that you do with this strategy is if it never comes down here, you will never own the stock. Right.
BCool. But I'll still get money, you know, Little bit.
AYou'll get that premium.
BSo I can use some other money to actually buy it at that other price.
CHuh?
AYou can do that. But if you. But then you're mixing two opinions. One opinion was.
BBut While mixing these two pins, I'm getting some cash.
ANo, but you're spending in like you're spending 2x the money. Right? You're spending some money for this option. You're spending some money to buy the stock. You don't have unlimited money. Right. To sell this option also you need to commit some money. You need to commit. Correct. But you have to tell the brokerage. Exactly. I just buy stocks at the lower price.
CBut I feel like I'm not understanding and not feeling like I will act.
BCall option is ulta. Now that I understood.
AYeah, it is literally the Ulta. You are buying the right to sell at a higher price.
BIt is, you're buying the right to sell it.
CCorrect.
ARight.
CWhereas put is.
AYeah, this is put. Is this buying a put?
CYeah, correct.
AYou can use the options track website. Yeah. Playing around with that will teach you a lot. I feel like if you just, it's just, it just makes a graph of what the payout will be.
BI think that like it's simulations, right?
AYou don't need a simulation for that. You just. There is.
CIt shows you the shapes.
AYeah, it just shows you the shape of your peer basically. I think I was just saying. Yeah, Right now volatility is high. So.
BBut the reason why I want to know all this is because I do feel I follow a lot of geopolitical news and like overall overall economic, macroeconomical geopolitical news. And I feel that I can, rather than just reading about the world, I
Athink I can use it to my advantage. The only problem with macro trading is you need a lot of money because when macro trading, you're trading spreads, you're not trading.
BI guess I don't know about it. Not detail about all this, but this. So I know that the Trump's decision to get involved in Iran is a very stupid decision because I, I don't know like based on whatever I've seen,
Alike so many people know this, almost everyone agrees. But like, like, yeah, but yeah, like so you can also expect this, somewhat of this to be priced in already. Right? A lot of people have already knowledge
Cthe less profit exclusive is stupid. No, no, but like I think what Sajan is trying to say is when you have some like very specific knowledge
Athat like that's when you make money. But with your like see you have
Ba. I, I feel today is the 29th of April. I have a feeling that on the 1st of May overall the world's markets will be slightly lower than what they are today because I don't see this Resolving and I feel it for the first of June also. But I feel at some point it will also rebound.
AThat's what I. Now you feel this fully off by
Ca month in this whole.
AHe said one May, eight months. I think he means one month.
CHe said today is the 29th of April on the 1st of May. So today is the 29th of March on the 1st of April. That's what he meant.
BNo one like a month later from today till a month later. I do feel this is not getting resolved.
AOkay, so then what do you want to do with your US equities? You think it's not going to get resolved? Wouldn't you now want to allocate all your money that you have in a way such that you at least protect yourself from the downside or something like that?
BYeah. So that's what you do.
ABuy puts, buy ports, just sell your portfolio or whatever. I mean you are saying you're reasonably confident. But like a rational person would. Assuming they are correct. A rational person would sell and buy at a lower price so you can get more of the thing. Right.
BMove that way. I don't know. It all seems to.
AHuh. Then you're not confident enough on your thesis, right?
BYeah, like I'm not confident enough as an I. I feel it's too much gambling with my life like to do that. Yeah.
CI mean do you can do it with a percentage.
AI mean you shouldn't do it like my advice is not to do it. But I'm just saying like you what people do is just sell everything,
Bthe whole thing.
AI don't know. Yeah. If you were confident in your thesis you would do that, right?
BNo, I mean I am, I'm. Mine is a very layman. I'm still not 100.
AExactly. And that's why you won't do it.
BI'm probably like 60 confident. Yeah. Like I don't know what is going on there. What if just buy something.
AI mean puri finance, industry opinion, portfolios.
CAnyone wants seconds? There's more of everything left.
BI guess it's leave for a random. For a random person who doesn't is not so confident. The best thing is to just do 20 year investments.
CVu and chill bro.
BWhy like and then just hope that the US doesn't like kill itself.
AYeah.
BThat's all you can do.
AAgree.
BI mean how do I feel it
Cwill today I told. I was talking to Sajan about Kara and I told him Asylum Kia and Sajan just clutched his head and like sat there for 20 seconds.
AWhat I'm like, like. Actual Asyl act.
BYeah. Her parents. She was born. She was born in Delhi, but when she was a year old or something, they moved here.
AOkay.
BAnd her sister. So her parents got green cards and everything. And her sister became an adult during Obama. They are called daca. They were called dreamers. They were children of immigrants who moved here. Okay. So I think her. While her. From what I understand, while her sister was. Became an adult. Obama was the president and he fast tracked everyone to citizenship. But Trump came and canceled that. And so now to work around that, she's done all this asylum and all.
CYeah. But why not? Is like, was there a valid asylum case ever? Yeah, her parents like asylum means that you have to prove that your. Where you came from was hostile towards you and there's actual danger to you going back.
AYeah.
BThat today, of course must have whatever they're doing with lawyers and all. But does she grew up here, like when she was one year old. She has been here. Her parents just came here for work. So she never got.
AI mean we're not talking about her. Right.
BHer lawyers are just working 247 to ensure that. But it's very. I. I don't think her situation is good at all. I feel I'm in a better situation than her.
ASure.
BBecause she's trapped in the U.S. yeah. She cannot move out of the U.S. like she went to. And her parents have passports. Her sister has a passport and she's stuck. She doesn't have one because Trump came and canceled this. It's for. I think it's for children of parents of people who came here and who grew up here.
CYeah.
BAnd got citizens. Yeah. But. But I don't know. So what about people in tech? I think their children the God.
ARight.
BH1B green card.
AYeah, yeah. Children born in the U.S. children born
Bin Harbour, born in Athena. She was born and her parents got her here when she was a kid.
CNay. But even my Uber driver that in Malcolm.
BBut most people have overstayed tourist visa and all these guys.
CNo, no. He jumped the border, came from Goa, applied for asylum and got. Now his brother has also jumped. Got. But his brother jumped during the Trump term. So the brother was put in a detainment center. So this guy Malcolm is telling me 20,000 to jump the border, 30,000 to get him out of that detainment center. Detention center. And then because asylum successfully. Mostly lawyers. Detention centers, I guess. But application.
AThat is the lawyer fees.
BBut they have not illegally immigrated to the US like, they have not jumped the border.
AI mean Malcolm has also not illegally immigrated. They did jump a border, but now he has all the legal paperwork, right?
CYeah. Basically saying they made.
BI mean, but he did crossing the border.
CPoint is, the asylum application was Farji.
BI think. I don't know her details. I don't think hers is not humanitarian asylum. Hers is like her parents and everyone is here and.
CBut parents.
BHer dad has a business here, so I think there's something with. She's something on that business. That's what she had told me. She's Dhaka, basically.
CI. Choksi.
BHuh?
CFocus.
BI am focusing.
CI'm talking about her parents making a Farji asylum application. None of what you've said is related to that.
BHow is it Faji? I don't understand.
AWe don't know.
CWe don't know. But I'm saying, even Malcolm, like, we don't know if he was actually persecuted in Goa or not, right?
AProbably not.
CI don't think so. I believe.
BNormally at the 90s with the green card there is or something.
COh, okay. The vocals ground for asylum seeker. Yeah.
BShe was born in Delhi.
CShe was not born in the asylum. Meaning? Means I'm a refugee.
BDhaka people are counted under asylum.
AWhat is Dhaka spelling?
BDaca.
