Topic: Would you invest in an illegal business - page 2. (Read 2014 times)
Legal businesses can never provide as high a profit margin as the black market, even if it's just as simple as evading taxation. So if you demand huge returns, it's the only way to go.
Personally- if I have plausible deniability and legitimately have no idea where the money is coming from and have no contact with the "business" or "clients" then I'd entertain it.
I think Bitcoin is good for the legal grey area's business to raise money. Some of the business is profitable and not harming other people, but the law just forbidden it.
Since gambling and illegal stuff seem to be the only two "industries" that flourish in today's Bitcoin environment I was wondering whether you guys would consider illegal business as an investment option for you.
Please, note that I am NOT giving you an offer. I'm just curious.

For me, it would come down to personal values. I don't believe that everything illegal is 'immoral' so I'd invest in a good number of 'illegal' businesses that didn't violate my personal morals. On the other hand, if someone were starting a 'hitman for hire' service, I'd probably pass since it violates my personal morals. It's pretty black and white for me.
Because im in legit business no, however if the returns are high and the clients are your friends and there is little risk... I say why not?
Freedom is freedom. The law is not meant to be obeyed, they are made to make someone money - the govt.
Just my 2c. However, in all seriousness - Dont break the law.

I'm not sayin I voted yes, I'm just sayin I didn't vote no.
But obviously (to me) it depends on what it is. I wouldn't invest in a hit-man business or anything violent.
To be more specific, I meant drugs. I just didn't write it in the OP, because I wanted to see the general view on crime. But obviously (to me) it depends on what it is. I wouldn't invest in a hit-man business or anything violent.
