profit extraction

Fraudulently obtaining a profit from a consumer by deceiving, manipulating, tricking him or her.

Profit extraction reminds me of a tooth extraction, pulling the tooth out from the gum. It also reminds me of the term "rip off." Ultimately, profit extraction is the act of pulling something which belongs to a person, from them, and taking it away.

Sleight for Profit

/slīt fȯr prä-fət/

When an event is created/fabricated to push a country into war for the means of profiting from the war. A type of false flag event where the only thing that is false is the purpose of the war.

The entry into the war looked like a simple mistake but when every thing unfoled the mistake was nothing more than Sleight for Profit.

Pocket Profit

The money/change you find in your wallet, purse, pocket or even handbag that you forgot you had.

Money you have discounted as spent but is still in your possession.

Seems like an addition to your wealth when rediscovered.

Hey man hows your day going?

Pretty good just made £5 pocket profit :D

windfall profit

"A tax levied on a industry by a politician eager to pander to economically ignorant voters who, for whatever reason, are upset with that industry." Neal Boortz

Barack Obama said, "I'll make oil companies like Exxon pay a tax on their windfall profits, and we'll use the money to help families pay for their skyrocketing energy costs and other bills."
