Make Money Online With Your Own Internet Business


The Make Money Farce
You have seen them and probably received thousands of them since you have begun internet marketing. They come out the wood works, don’t they? Opportunities promising that you too can make money online with little to no effort. You then invest your money into the opportunity only to find out there aren’t any pies in the sky… only the cold hard reality that you just spent some of your rent money on someone’s new car.





Yes, this is the reality many internet marketers face. I have been there. I started in this business with my father and let me tell you… we have seen every scam under the sun. Why? Because we were those people who had a dream and wanted to help other people through success only to find out there ain’t no free lunch in business. The cold hard truth is that “business is business”. Period. There are a million work from home opportunities contrived each year. There are many more gullible individuals who buy into the dream. In the end, they are left like me and my dad… a few thousand dollars shorter.

But, It’s Online And It Has To Be TRUE
Here is a revelation. People who scam lie. They don’t just lie a little, its more like lie a lot. They want you to trust them, and to believe their story. But when it comes to delivering… well. You know. You’ve been there a thousand and one times. You’ve spent your money on the magic potions of the internet only to realize that you are out of money and now have a rash (the legendary rash of discouragement).



I’m not here to sell you a pie in the sky. I am here to be your jolt of reality. Sleeper, it’s time to wake up! The internet is not some new invention that defies the laws of business. It is business on steroids. Imagine the business rules you know and then multiply them by the sheer volume of variables now introduced by the online component. The internet can allow you to become very wealthy or very broke.

So… Can I Make Money Online Or Not?!
You can young Jedi. I know some of the things I’ve said may be a little cheeky but I am serious. There is no money like “internet business” online money. The thing is you have to see it for what it is. Your internet business is just that… a business. Do not enter the online business field with any other mindset than “I am going to run MY business”.


There is nothing more rewarding and satisfying professionally then running your own business. And if ran right, your internet business can feed you and your family. You may be looking for quick ways to make money. Once you setup your business depending upon the model you use the money can come quick. It all comes down to you and your imagination. Add hustle, grind, and grit and you got something.

How To Donate a Car In California


Are you ready to donate a car in California? If so, good for you! Donating a car to charity is a wonderful decision on many levels. First of all, your donation goes to help a great cause.  Plus, you get your old vehicle or junk car moved off of your property free of charge. You are also recycling an old vehicle, and you also get to claim the car donation as a tax deduction.

In this post you'll find some tips on how to donate a car in California and some specific requirements you should be aware of that relate to California car donations.

1. To donate a
car in California, you begin by submitting an online car donation form or calling the charity you wish donate your vehicle to.  If you wish to claim the car donation as a tax deduction, be sure to check that the charity is an IRS recognized nonprofit organization.

2. The process for receiving the tax receipt for your charitable donation may vary. Some charities will email you the initial receipt while others have the tow truck provide you with the receipt at the time of pick up. This is just an initial receipt and enables you to claim a tax deduction of up to $500. You should check with the charity to find out what their procedure is for providing you with this receipt when you submit your vehicle donation.

3. In the State of California, the license plates remain with the vehicle, so these should not be removed prior to the pickup.

4. Filing a Release of Liability with the California Department of Motor Vehicles is an important step you do not want to miss when you donate a car.  This document releases you from future liability which may arise for any reason after the vehicle is donated.  In California the procedure for filing a Release of Liability is that you must return the pink portion of the title or DMV form REG 138 to your local Department of Motor Vehicles. Alternatively, you can file your release of liability online at http://www.dmv.ca.gov.



5. If your vehicle sells for more than $500, or if it qualifies for a fair market value tax deduction, you will receive additional tax paperwork after the sale of the vehicle takes place. The amount you will be allowed to deduct on your taxes will vary depending on several factors which could include the price the vehicle is sold for or whether the vehicle is classified as a fair market value car donation.

6. One last point we should mention is that if you plan to claim your car donation tax deduction on your 2012 taxes, you need to make sure you donate the car well before the deadline of December 31, 2012. The charity should have possession of the vehicle before midnight on December 31st, or at least have the pickup well in the works, in order for you to claim your tax deduction in 2012. Don’t wait till the last minute as there could be delays that could result in you being unable to claim the donation as a deduction for the current tax year.

If you have any further questions related to your car donation tax deduction, most charities are relatively knowledgeable about the process and paperwork needed, however, you should consult a CPA or accountant for specifics regarding your particular tax situation.

For additional questions related to car donations in California, you can contact your local DMV or visit the California DMV website for the latest information on state specific requirements.

How To Start An Online Business – The Secret Is “Service”


If you’re looking to cultivate any sort of business endeavour – online or otherwise – the most important thing that I have found is the role of SERVICE in what you’re doing.

Service is NOT an arbitrary word used to describe whether you respond to customer support emails – it lies at the CORE of what determines whether a business venture will become successful or not.

Putting this into perspective, if you consider what a “business” actually “does” – we’ve witnessed a stark shift from a “production” to a “service” based model over the past 15 years.

Fuelled by the connectivity of the Internet & developments in engineering techniques, the way to “be productive” in the modern world (particularly the West) is to provision new products and tools. How they get made
should be a secondary concern (very little profit in it).

The key – as opposed to historic production – is that it’s no longer the case that having “production capacity” is a major deal… almost everybody has access to that.


What people don’t have is a MARKET into which to offer their products. This market (depending on which type of company you end up cultivating) will then determine the PRICE of the product and whether it’s something they’ll consider using.

The point is that if you’re looking to “get into” business, the absolutely most important thing you NEED to consider is what type of SERVICE you will be able to provide as a professional. This service – applied using either your own products/tools, or someone else’s – is the real secret behind why some companies “always” seem to grow, whilst the majority struggle.

This tutorial aims to explain how it works, and what to do if you’re looking to get involved in the world of enterprise.

Service Makes The World Go Round (Literally)

Most people get involved with “business” because they have an idea they wish to pursue.

Perhaps they wanted to create their own clothing line, have some sort of “lifestyle” business (winery/farm etc) or get involved with a particular field (cosmetics / modelling) – the hallmark of “failed” businesses typically starts with someone’s wistful desire to “work for themselves”.

This is a lie. People don’t care that you started a “business” and all the stories you read about a 12-year-old CEO who’s onto his fifth company are only there because the publication wanted some fresh hype to keep its readers coming back.

The simple reality is that the MAJORITY of people are only moved by necessity. How “necessary” they deem a product to be to their life is how much value they’ll attribute to it (and thus a price).

The way to ensure that YOUR products are bought is to create a necessity for its usage. Don’t even think about “selling” it – [most] people aren’t stupid; they’ll attribute a price to any product they deem as essential to their life. No one ever quibbled over the cost of life-saving heart-surgery… and the same principle exists in every other business. People pay you in direct proportion to how much you actually “give a damn” about what you’re doing.

The most important thing is to realize is that “service” sits at the CORE of what makes people interested in a company.

It’s not their “products” or even their “staff” – it’s what they DO on a daily basis which drives RESULTS. This “activity” is what the market recognizes – and is ultimately attracted to.

Think about it.



Apple don’t “manufacture” their products. They design them and come up with all the components etc. Their service is design.
Tesla do “manufacture” their products because no-one else can do it as well as them.
Amazon are really a digital logistics company – no one is able to store and send out as many parcels as effectively as them.
If you want to get into “business”, come up with a RESULT that you can provide to a market.

10,000+ Twitter followers in the first 60 days
150+ YouTube subscribers in the next 90 days
Conversational Italian in 14 days GUARANTEED
Branding Lessons From Ferrari + Lamborghini
CUSTOM SHIRTS get you laid; CUSTOM SUITS get you paid
If you’re looking to “start” a business, the absolute BEST thing you can do is look at what people are ALREADY looking to buy (just browse the “best sellers” section of any marketplace).

This gives you a direct indication of *exactly* what they have a budget for (what they’re willing to PAY for). This allows you to provide this RESULT as a service (IE in your own way) – giving you the ability to start attracting clients by virtue of how effective you are at providing said results.

The BIGGEST issue I’ve seen is leading with a product, or even “solution”. I hear it all the time – “what problem does your business solve”… hardly anyone buying a product actually thinks they have a “problem”. Rather, they are looking for a particular SERVICE that can be provided to them to improve their life in some specific way. Or – as Gary Halbert said – “your marketing should make their pupils dilate”.

Think about it like this – which would you rather do business with: “The World’s LARGEST Social Media Agency” or “The ONLY Agency To GUARANTEE 10,000+ FOLLOWERS In The NEXT 30 DAYS Or Your Money Back “. Whilst the former works for established businesses, the latter works for ANY business – especially new ones.



Notice how you’re not actually selling anything about the “process” of how you achieve the results? This comes afterwards; you need to stipulate EXACTLY what the buyer is going to get for their time/money, which in the case of “social media” is followers. For SEO, it’s #1 Google ranks and for “programming”, it’s to create a “RECURRING SAAS BUSINESS”.

Obviously, the way in which those various results are cultivated is vital. But the irony is no-one cares about how you do it… as long as it’s legit.

This is why some companies “always” seem to win – their “service” is based around the provision of particular RESULTS. They ignore (outsource) everything else.

If Starting A Business, It “Pays” To Focus On Service

In conclusion, if you’re looking at “starting” a business – the key is to forget yourself and focus entirely on the underlying results you can provide to the client.

If you don’t have the skills to provide said results, you need to get to work building them up (which can be done on the job).

Think about every transaction from the perspective of what you can add to the engagement. Don’t be afraid to “give away the family silver” (in terms of “secrets”) – 99% won’t compete with you, and the one guy who will rip you off will jump onto the next fad he finds.

The key thing you need to do from an enterprise perspective is to identify the various “services” which you’re either able – or capable of – providing for anyone with the right budget.

How To Save A Business Time And Money


If you’re an entrepreneur, you wear many hats, at least when your starting out. You’re the CEO, CFO and COO, along with the salesman, head of shipping and delivery and the marketing and advertising person. Everything that must be done, you’re the one to do it.


And, combined with only so many working hours in a day, it’s easy to see why it can be difficult to make any progress with your online business once you reach a certain point.

Once you have set up a business, you need to consider ways you can help it to grow. One of the ways to save a business time and money so it can develop is to put the necessary systems in place to help it run more efficiently.

Dealing with Emails

This might not be such a big problem at first, but as your online business grows, you’ll get a
lot of people emailing and messaging to ask you questions about your products or services.

Rather than spending a couple of hours every day responding to these and building good relationships with your followers, you can pass the task on to somebody else to complete. Neglecting the messages is never a good solution, since it could give your business a bad reputation.


Website Updates


Starting your own website might not seem very time-consuming at first, but if you’re successful and you start to get lots of visitors, you will need to regularly update your website in order to maintain your popularity and keep your followers happy.



Outsourcing allows you to free up your time for important tasks that demand your full attention. Also, it makes it possible for you to get people who are more skilled and knowledgeable than you to complete tasks that take you too long to complete.

Updating Your Social Media Accounts

This is another thing that entrepreneurs should be very involved in, but it can be extremely time-consuming to do all by yourself. As well as making new posts, you need to interact with your followers and let people know about any news or fresh content on your website.

The good news is that it doesn’t all need to be done by you! Social scheduling software means you can schedule posts in advance, and virtual assistants can take care of interaction.

Proof Reading

Stop stressing about making small errors in your articles, blog posts and website updates. Seek the services of somebody to proof read everything for you before it’s published.

This mean you can still publish content even if writing isn’t one of your strong points, and you can save lots of time on checking your spelling and grammar and being g about if you’ve structured your sentences properly.

Internet Trends

Internet Trends
The contemporary society has become a global room at such a rapid pace. Technology has successfully broken down the wall of distance in the dissemination of information. Before now, it would have been a very long rigorous process for me writing this and getting it typed using some manual sluggish typewriter that could take hours. But thanks to technology for saving me the stress.



The internet has become a networking zone. A meeting place for socialization and business. As a matter of fact, the easiest way to sell or market a product is through online marketing. In a few minutes you will be reaching to thousands of potential consumers with little or no stress. Virtually seven out of ten have constant access to the internet, either through laptops or cell phones.

With the aid of internet, dissemination of information spreads like wild fire across regions. This brings to the awareness of the general public events and issues happening around them. Some of these issues are of great interest either by their delightful or controversial tone as perceived by the public. Either ways, they become trending online, generating highest traffic for bloggers and on top of the chart for journalists.



Internet trends are products of perception. What people perceive an issue to be determines their reactions towards it. So internet trends can be subjective to an individual society. Issues relating to same-sex marriage would not trend in an European society as much as it will trend in an African society. Reason being because of the different perception of both societies on the subject matter. However there are global trends that cut across societies.

One feature of trends is duration. Every trend has a time span after which it becomes faded and stale. The length depends on how much traffic it generates online which is determined by comments and discussions about the issue.

By and large internet trends can serve as opinion poll. They portray people’s views, mindset and understanding about the issue at hand. Asides from generating dollars for bloggers and site owners, internet trends are statistical analysis. Not only does it show people’s opinion, it also gathers data on statistics of number of comments either positive or negative on each issue. Internet trends can serve as tools for random sampling for a research purpose. Interesting to also mention the less-cost dimension of internet trends. It is easy and faster to a larger audience.

Quick Guide To An Insurance Claim

Quick Guide To An Insurance Claim
Before anything else, we first have to understand what an insurance claim is. This way we can better appreciate the whole procedure and it simply becomes easy to go through because we already know what to do step by step, in relation to the whole process.



A claim is when you ask the insurance company to compensate you for damages you have sustained after a car accident, or when you ask the insurance company to represent you or intervene on your behalf when you are liable for damages.

You pay a lot of money for your car insurance, so it makes sense that if you are involved in an accident, you will want to make a claim. Depending on whether the accident is responsible, or not responsible, and the type of damage, your insurance company will be able to provide coverage based on the kind of car insurance coverage you have.

Claims can be paid from the comprehensive coverage, collision coverage, or any of the minimum car insurance requirement sections, such as liability. Claims may also be paid from multiple sections of your policy depending on the circumstances of your car crash.

If you are wondering whether your collision claims process will be more difficult to bear than the accident itself, the good news is that filing a claim is usually fairly simple. By following a systematic approach and carefully recording what has happened, you can gather all of the information you need. The following guidelines will help you ensure the process goes smoothly.

ON THE ACCIDENT SCENE

One of the best ways to speed up the entire claims process is to get off to the right start, and that begins at the accident scene itself. The more good information and evidence you can collect there, the better.

Here’s what to get:

Personal Data: Try to get basic personal information from everyone at the scene. That includes all other drivers, passengers, and bystanders. Get their names, phone numbers, and home and email addresses. Anything that will make it easier to find them later. If you have time, take some notes about what each witness saw and heard. Pass all of this information along to your claims adjuster, but be sure to keep copies for yourself.
Insurance Information: This is particularly important. Make sure to exchange insurance information with the drivers of all vehicles involved in the accident. It’s probably going to be the first thing your adjuster asks you for.
Pictures: Take a bunch of photos of the accident scene. If you can get pictures before the vehicles are moved out of the way, great, but don’t create a dangerous situation just to take them. Definitely take photos of all damages to your car, every other vehicle involved, and anything else. Take a few pictures of the accident location as well. A few different angles are always helpful. Take pictures of the parties involved and all witnesses, if you can. And, finally, take photos of each party’s insurance card.
Law Enforcement: Always call the police after an accident. They may or may not be able to respond, but it’s always worth a try. When they arrive, make sure to get the officers’ names. They will gather their own information and take interviews for their report, and instruct you on how to obtain a copy the report once it is written up. Hold onto whatever paperwork they give you and pass on copies to your adjuster.
Contact Your Insurer ASAP



I’m sure you’ve heard the saying, “most crimes are solved in the first 48 hours after the incident.” That’s because the crime scene remains intact and the details are still fresh in the minds of the witnesses. It’s kind of like that with an auto accident. We’re not talking about a crime here (I hope), but the idea still works. The sooner you contact your insurer, the easier it will be for them to make the inquiries they need to get the most accurate data. It’s not a bad idea to call them from the scene of the accident, if possible.

Be Cooperative and Prompt

Most small accidents are relatively simple for your adjuster to handle. He or she has done them hundreds of times over. That doesn’t mean that a claim can’t be held up by some missing piece of evidence or information.

If your adjuster calls you and leaves a message to call him or her back, do it as soon as you can. Good communication between insurer and claimant is vital. Plus, it’s hard to complain about slow processing if you’re the one holding it up.

Be Honest

This rule seems obvious, but not everyone follows it. It’s human to want to avoid pain, and admitting that you are at fault for your accident can be pretty painful. But if you are at fault, don’t try to get out of it by lying. First of all, insurance adjusters have a lot of experience with accidents and fibbers.

They’re really good about figuring out what actually happened and that can be pretty bad for you if you are less than forthcoming with the facts. Remember “Double Indemnity”? Insurance fraud is frowned upon and could cost you a lot more money than the premium increase you’ll likely get by admitting fault.

And if you’re looking for a speedy conclusion to the claims process, being dishonest will surely slow it down, and sometimes bring it to a crashing halt.

What Is Insurance?

What Is Insurance?
As we know one way of risk prevention is to insure a risk to the insurance company. This method is considered the most important method in tackling risk. Therefore many people think that risk management is the same as insurance. Though the actual circumstances are not so.



Insurance means the insurance transaction, which involves two parties, the insured and the insurer. Where the insurer guarantees the insured person, that he will be reimbursed for a loss which he may suffer, as a result of an event that would not necessarily occur or which could not be determined when or when it occurred. As the insured in the obligation to pay some money to the insurer , the amount of proportion of the sum insured, commonly called “premium”.

Viewed from several angles, the insurance has a variety of goals and techniques of splitting, among others:

A. From an economic perspective, then:
The goal:
Reducing the uncertainty of the results of operations undertaken by a person or company in order to meet the needs or achieve goals.

Technique:
By transferring the risk to the other party and the other party combining a considerable amount of risk, so it can be estimated with more precise the magnitude of the possibility of loss.



B. In terms of Law, then:
The goal:
Transferring the risks faced by an object or a business activity to another party.

Technique:
Through premium payments by the insured to the insurer in the indemnity contract (insurance policy), then the risk of transferring to the insurer.

C. In terms of Trade, then:
The goal:
Share the risks faced to all participants of the insurance program.

Technique:
Transferred risk from individuals / companies to financial institutions engaged in risk management (insurance companies), which will share the risk to all participants of the insurance it handles.

D. From a societal standpoint, then:
The goal:
Bear losses jointly among all participants of the insurance program.

Technique:
All group members (group members) of the insurance program contribute (in the form of premiums) to sympathize losses suffered by a / some of its members.

E. In terms of Mathematics, then:
The goal:
Predict the magnitude of the possibility of risk and the outcome of the forecast is used to divide the risk to all participants (group of participants) insurance program.

The Importance Of Insurance Reviews

The Importance Of Insurance Reviews
Most people reach out to their insurance brokers or underwriters when there is a significant event in their lives that necessitates new or revised risk coverage – perhaps when they purchase a new home or it’s time to trade-in the old car. However, far fewer remember to review their insurance at regular intervals or when more subtle changes to their coverage requirements occur.



Reviewing your insurance regularly helps ensure your coverage is what you expect it to be in the unfortunate circumstance that you need to file a claim. It also aids in making informed decisions regarding coverage and being proactive about minimizing your insurance costs.

There are many different circumstances that could possibly change your coverage requirements and prompt a call to an insurance professional for a review. The examples below identify some of the instances in which you might want to review your coverage:



Renovations – If you perform renovations to your house, it is likely that you are also increasing its value. Whether it’s a new kitchen, bathroom, pool, or even expensive landscaping, remember to check your policy limits to ensure they remain adequate in case of an insured loss. If you’ve recently renovated your basement, also note it is quite likely that your water damage insurance needs to be reviewed.


You’ve been accumulating possessions – Have you done a home inventory lately? Most people have more personal possessions than they think. Estimating the total value of your contents is vital to helping ensure your limits are adequate.


You’ve purchased a high value item – Remember that some of your personal possessions have to be scheduled to be properly covered. Jewellery, antiques, collectibles, wine collections, and art are a few examples of pieces that may require additional coverage.


New coverages have become available – The insurance industry frequently adapts to changing market conditions and offers coverage in areas that it has not in the past. For homeowners, insurance for overland water damage and home repair issues (such as broken furnaces) have recently become available from some insurers, in some areas. In addition, legal expense insurance, travel insurance, and pet insurance are available from brokers looking to cover more of your risk and insurance needs.


Laws changing to give you more or less choice – Changes to automobile accident benefits mean you should review your choices.


You become eligible for additional discounts – Changes in your personal circumstances may affect your eligibility for policy discounts. For example, if you install an alarm system you are likely eligible for a discount on your homeowner policy. If you use snow tires on your vehicle, many insurers offer a discount on your car insurance policy. If you pass the age of 50-55, you may become eligible for mature driver discounts.


If you change jobs and have a shorter commute – You should report this to your insurance broker as driving less typically correlates to lower risk and less expensive premiums. If you have a certain job occupation, you may also be eligible for lower insurance rates.


You’ve started a home business – A different use of your home, other than strictly residential, may require business insurance to properly cover liability risks.


Your personal circumstances change – If you get married or have children, you may want to review your coverage to ensure your coverage levels are adequate to look after your dependents in case of an accident.


Your child gets a driver’s licence – Always check to see if your child can be added to your policy. It is often the least expensive option for insuring them to drive. If they get their own car, you are also probably eligible for a multi-car discount.


If your child moves away to attend college or university – Check to see if your homeowners coverage can be extended to protect your child’s assets while away at school. It may be more cost-effective that purchasing a standalone tenants insurance policy.


If you haven’t had an insurance review in more than a year – Your coverage levels may be out of date. A key example of this is your home insurance. Property values and replacement costs can easily rise to the point that your existing coverage limits do not allow for the total reconstruction of your home in the case of a total loss.
Taking the time to speak to your insurance professional is always time well spent. Even if you don’t save on your insurance costs after the call, there is no substitute for having the coverage you expect when a claim becomes necessary. Since most insurance policies are for the term of one-year, it is a good idea to speak to your insurance professional before renewing your annual coverage.

The insurance quotient of these plans makes them an invincible product to cater child needs and fortifying his future. These plans fall under the category of investment cum insurance plans. Unlike other popular saving and investing schemes like Mutual funds, Public provident fund (PPF), National savings scheme (NSC) etc the child insurance plans protect the child from the financial hazards arising from untimely death of the policyholder parent.



In the event of the unfortunate demise of the policy taking parent the insurance company waives off the remaining premiums and continues the policy. The company pays the sum assured to the child at the maturity of the policy. To understand the plan better you may take assistance from a qualified life insurance expert. Child insurance plans can be either participating life insurance plans or non-participating life insurance plans. In participating plans you are eligible to share the profits of the company in proportion to the premium paid by you along with the sum assured. In non-participating plans you get the guaranteed maturity benefit and death benefit with no share in the profits.



Some people argue that why they should have child insurance plan and start paying premiums now when there are options of education loans available. They strengthen their argument by saying that at present they don’t know the potential of their child. Maybe when he grows up he won’t go for higher education or would have some other talent like entrepreneurship. To such parents the answer would be, these plans help generating a good amount of corpus and readies the child with a good amount of money that can be either invested in studies or in some business or in any other important event like marriage.

Education loans are a good option and are very popular but they put a big burden of repayment on your child’s shoulders right from the starting of their careers. Such burden compels them to take a good employment in order to be able to pay off the loans. In the pressure of such burden they can’t even think of taking up entrepreneurship as they can’t afford the gestation period. Moreover, in some cases their other life goals like getting married or buying a house get delayed.

If you are planning for the future of your child you go for a judicial mix of insurance, self finance and loan so that the child also becomes responsible. Compare online child insurance plans to learn a range of features companies are providing and save on the purchase. An educated customer is likely to make a smarter purchase thus, gather as much information as you can in your busy schedule and then plan wis

Don’t Complicate Matters

It is obvious the iPhone 7 is great. Your buddies and colleagues have purchased it,but the iPhone 6 plus is one that you simply bought a few time ago. While many of these new gadgets are fun and exciting to have, you undoubtedly don’t need a new phone unless your old phone is dying. You must never buy it unless you really want an iPhone 7.

Can that new phone do something that your particular old model can’t do? It is essential to sometimes treat yourself with luxuries, just make sure this really is something great rather

Six Uncommon Policies Your Insurance Agency May Offer

Six Uncommon Policies Your Insurance Agency May Offer
You want your home and family to be protected in case of an accident. It is the best thing you can do. However, that protection can be a little fickle. Your insurance agency may reimburse you in the event of certain problems, but it might not provide funds for other issues. In fact, if you do not have some of these policies, you may be footing the bill yourself in the event of an accident.



Renter’s Policy

Everyone knows it’s a necessity to get an insurance agency to write a policy for a home, but many do not think about getting a policy when they are renting. Yes, your property owner has coverage for their property in the event of a fire or another incident. However, that policy does not cover your valuables. A typical policy only costs a few dollars a month and includes some liability coverage as well.

Pet Policies

Like your children, your four-legged family members need annual checkups and vaccinations in order to be in top health. In the event that they need an operation at some point, it can get expensive. You can check with your insurance agency to see if they offer coverage for your pet that will help offset some of their general care costs.

Antique Coverage

Having a homeowner or even a renter policy does not mean that your valuable antiques are protected. Some policies do not cover these items, as they can be costly to replace or restore. However, if you own valuable family heirlooms, you may check into additional coverage. In the event that something should happen to the property, you want to make sure you have full replacement value or restoration coverage.



Long-Term Care

Most employers offer some form of disability insurance. However, they do not always provide long-term care coverage. In the event you should need to go to a nursing home or require long-term home care, this type of policy can save you money in the end. If you purchase this policy when you are younger, you will not spend as much. However, they can be pricey if you are not careful. You may also only purchase one that pays for three to five years of service, as most holders need them for more than three years.

Longevity

Most people understand the need to put money back for their retirement. However, in some cases, even the best-laid plans can find you running out of money before you pass. By purchasing longevity plans from an insurance agency, you can help ensure you are not in a bind. This program allows you to receive a specified monthly amount beginning at age 85. For example, you purchase $50,000 indemnity at age 55. At age 85, you would begin receiving the same approximate amount yearly.

Wedding

Wedding plans are nominal in cost, but they can save you a lot of frustration. The average cost of the big day can be upwards of $24,000. If you have to postpone it due to inclement weather or the death of a family member, you could spend as much to get it back on track. Having something in place to help you in the event your big day doesn’t go as planned is a good idea.



CATEGORIES: INSURANCE
The Three Most Common Types of Insurance
JULY 26, 2018ADMINLEAVE A COMMENT


There are many insurance plans available to offer coverage for various sorts of damage or accidents. All families should have at least one of these three.



Types of Homeowners Policies

Homeowner’s insurance falls under one of six categories. HO-1 and HO-2, as they are more commonly known, cover only the property against specifically listed damage. These policies vary as to what damage is covered, and neither protects belongings located on the property. HO-2 forms offer more coverage than an HO-1.

HO-3 protects against all types of damage, not just specifically listed damage. It also protects a select list of belongings located within the structure from specific damage.

HO-4 and HO-6 cover only belongings. Renters use these policies as the landlord or management company holds coverage on the dwelling. As with HO-1 and HO-2, HO-6 offers greater protection than HO-4 and is more expensive.

HO-5 is similar to HO-3 in that it covers the property as well as personal belongings. The difference is that HO-5 covers all belongings, not just a set few. It is also more costly than some of the others, but it is worth it.

Types of Medical Options

Medical is another common form of insurance, and as with homeowners, there are different kinds for you or your employer to choose.

Health Maintenance Organization, or HMO, is one of the most used types. This plan allows you to choose from a network of providers, and it also includes preventative care. However, you must be referred by your primary care physician in order to see a specialist. There is also a small copay you must pay at each appointment.

The Preferred Provider Organization, or PPO, also has a network of doctors available. Unlike an HMO, you do not have to choose a primary care provider. You can see any physician, or even a specialist, as long as he is in network. Also, you do not have to have a referral to change doctors. As with other plans, each visit requires a copay.



Exclusive Provider Organization, or EPO, works very similar to HMOs and PPOs. These cost less and have a network of providers available. However, unlike a PPO, where an out of network doctor visit is covered up to a point, there is no out of network coverage for these plans.

The Point of Service Plan, or POS, is a hybrid between an HMO and PPO. POS requires a primary care provider assignment, but you can see out-of-network doctors if you are willing to pay a higher copay.

Different Auto Coverage

Auto insurance is also widely used. Depending on your loan terms and state requirements, some options may be unavailable to you.

Liability plans cover damage and medical bills in the event the accident was deemed your fault. It only covers the damage done to the other person’s property as well as any of their medical bills. Most states require this as minimal coverage. It is also the most inexpensive option available.

Collision coverage will pay for repairs to your vehicle in the event of an accident. This type of insurance is worth having, in addition to liability coverage, even if you have an older vehicle that has no lien. In the event that your vehicle is totaled, your plan covers the value of your car. This policy is required for those with lienholders.

Comprehensive coverage covers anything unrelated to an accident like if your vehicle is stolen or you hit a deer. For most lienholders, this is a requirement.

Uninsured motorist is something that everyone should consider. While most states require at least liability coverage, some drivers don’t keep the plans much past getting their license or tags. This policy protects you in case someone else causes damage and doesn’t have a plan in place to pay for repairs.

Bitcoin Vs Goldcoin

Bitcoin Vs Goldcoin
If you don’t know what Bitcoin is, do a bit of research on the internet, and you will get plenty… but the short story is that Bitcoin was created as a medium of exchange, without a central bank or bank of issue being involved. Furthermore, Bitcoin transactions are supposed to be private, that is anonymous. Most interestingly, Bitcoins have no real world existence; they exist only in computer software, as a kind of virtual reality.



The general idea is that Bitcoins are ‘mined’… interesting term here… by solving an increasingly difficult mathematical formula -more difficult as more Bitcoins are ‘mined’ into existence; again interesting- on a computer. Once created, the new Bitcoin is put into an electronic ‘wallet’. It is then possible to trade real goods or Fiat currency for Bitcoins… and vice versa. Furthermore, as there is no central issuer of Bitcoins, it is all highly distributed, thus resistant to being ‘managed’ by authority.

Naturally proponents of Bitcoin, those who benefit from the growth of Bitcoin, insist rather loudly that ‘for sure, Bitcoin is money’… and not only that, but ‘it is the best money ever, the money of the future’, etc… Well, the proponents of Fiat shout just as loudly that paper currency is money… and we all know that Fiat paper is not money by any means, as it lacks the most important attributes of real money. The question then is does Bitcoin even qualify as money… never mind it being the money of the future, or the best money ever.

To find out, let’s look at the attributes that define money, and see if Bitcoin qualifies. The three essential attributes of money are;

1) money is a stable store of value; the most essential attribute, as without stability of value the function of numeraire, or unit of measure of value, fails.

2) money is the numeraire, the unit of account.

3) money is a medium of exchange… but other things can also fulfill this function ie direct barter, the ‘netting out’ of goods exchanged. Also ‘trade goods’ (chits) that hold value temporarily; and finally exchange of mutual credit; ie netting out the value of promises fulfilled by exchanging bills or IOU’s.

Compared to Fiat, Bitcoin does not do too badly as a medium of exchange. Fiat is only accepted in the geographic domain of its issuer. Dollars are no good in Europe etc. Bitcoin is accepted internationally. On the other hand, very few retailers currently accept payment in Bitcoin. Unless the acceptance grows geometrically, Fiat wins… although at the cost of exchange between countries.

The first condition is a lot tougher; money must be a stable store of value… now Bitcoins have gone from a ‘value’ of $3.00 to around $1,000, in just a few years. This is about as far from being a ‘stable store of value’; as you can get! Indeed, such gains are a perfect example of a speculative boom… like Dutch tulip bulbs, or junior mining companies, or Nortel stocks.

Of course, Fiat fails here as well; for example, the US Dollar, the ‘main’ Fiat, has lost over 95% of its value in a few decades… neither fiat nor Bitcoin qualify in the most important measure of money; the capacity to store value and preserve value through time. Real money, that is Gold, has shown the ability to hold value not just for centuries, but for eons. Neither Fiat nor Bitcoin has this crucial capacity… both fail as money.

Finally, we come to the second attribute; that of being the numeraire. Now this is really interesting, and we can see why both Bitcoin and Fiat fail as money, by looking closely at the question of the ‘numeraire’. Numeraire refers to the use of money to not only store value, but to in a sense measure, or compare value. In Austrian economics, it is considered impossible to actually measure value; after all, value resides only in human consciousness… and how can anything in consciousness actually be measured? Nevertheless, through the principle of Mengerian market action, that is interaction between bid and offer, market prices can be established… if only momentarily… and this market price is expressed in terms of the numeraire, the most marketable good, that is money.

So how do we establish the value of Fiat… ? Through the concept of ‘purchasing power’… that is, the value of Fiat is determined by what it can be traded for… a so called ‘basket of goods’. But his clearly implies that Fiat has no value of its own, rather value flows from the value of the goods and services it may be traded for. Causality flows from the goods ‘bought’ to the Fiat number. After all, what difference is there between a one Dollar bill and a hundred Dollar bill, except the number printed on it… and the purchasing power of the number?



Gold, on the other hand, is not measured by what it trades for; rather, uniquely, it is measured by another physical standard; by its weight, or mass. A gram of Gold is a gram of gold, and an ounce of Gold is an ounce of Gold… no matter what number is engraved on its surface, ‘face value’ or otherwise. Causality is the opposite to that of Fiat; Gold is measured by weight, an intrinsic quality… not by purchasing power. Now, have you any idea of the value of an ounce of Dollars? No such thing. Fiat is only ‘measured’ by an ephemeral quantity… the number printed on it, the ‘face value’.

Bitcoin is farther away from being the numeraire; not only is it simply a number, much as Fiat… but its value is measured in Fiat! Even if Bitcoin becomes internationally accepted as a medium of exchange, and even if it manages to replace the Dollar as the accepted ‘numeraire’, it can never have an intrinsic measure like Gold has. Gold is unique in being measured by a true, unchanging physical quantity. Gold is unique in storing value for thousands of years. Nothing else in reach of humanity has this unique combination of qualities.

In conclusion, while Bitcoin has some advantages over Fiat, namely anonymity and decentralization, it fails in its claim to being money. Its advantages are also questionable; the intent is to limit the ‘mining’ of Bitcoins to 26,000,000 units; that is, the ‘mining’ algorithm gets harder and harder to solve, then impossible after the 26 million Bitcoins are mined. Unfortunately, this announcement could very well be the death knell of Bitcoin; already, some central banks have announced that Bitcoins may become a ‘reservable’ currency.

Wow, sounds like a major step for Bitcoin, does it not? After all, the ‘big banks’ seem to be accepting the true value of the Bitcoin, no? What this actually means is banks recognize that they could trade Fiat for Bitcoins… and to actually buy up the 26 million Bitcoins planned would cost a meagre 26 Billion Fiat Dollars. Twenty six billion Dollars is not even small change to the Fiat printers; it is about a week’s worth of printing by the US Fed alone. And, once the Bitcoins bought up and locked up in the Fed’s ‘wallet’… what useful purpose could they serve?

There would be no Bitcoins left in circulation; a perfect corner. If there are no Bitcoins in circulation, how on Earth could they be used as a medium of exchange? And, what could the issuers of Bitcoin possibly do to defend against such a fate? Change the algorithm and increase the 26 million to… 52 million? To 104 million? Join the Fiat printing parade? But then, by the quantity theory of money, Bitcoin would start to lose value, just as Fiat supposedly loses value through ‘over-printing’…

We come to the key issue; why search for a ‘new money’ when we already have the very best money, Gold? Fear of Gold confiscation? Lack of anonymity from an intrusive government? Brutal taxation? Fiat money legal tender laws? All of the above. The answer is not in a new form of money, but in a new social structure, one without Fiat, without Government spying, without drones and swat teams… without IRS, border guards, TSA thugs… on and on. A world of liberty not tyranny. Once this is accomplished, Gold will resume its ancient and vital role as honest money… and not a moment before.

Rudy J. Fritsch was born in Hungary in 1947, and fled Socialist tyranny during the Hungarian Revolution of 1956. His family had lived through WWII and the consequent Hungarian hyperinflation, thus he has intimate experience with financial destruction.

As an engineer and entrepreneur, he ran a successful family business in Canada for decades, at its peak employing over 100 workers, until economic upheaval destroyed the profitability of North American manufacturing. Driven out of business, he decided to study economics… to discover the cause of this unhappy circumstance.

As mainstream economics “The Dismal Science” made no sense to him, he ended up studying Austrian economics, the only school of economics grounded in the realities of Human Action. When he discovered Professor Antal Fekete’s work he came to admire it and made a firm commitment to help preserve and disseminate the Professor’s legacy.

How To Find The Best Insurance Agency

How To Find The Best Insurance Agency
When you need coverage, you should look to your insurance agency to find the right policy. You might not be aware of some of the policies available to you. While you might think your traditional insurance will cover everything, you might be surprised to find out where traditional homeowner’s, rental, medical, and car coverage fall short.





Different Types of Coverage

If you should determine that you need any of these supplemental options, you should check with your insurance agency to find out whether they offer the coverage in question. Not all underwriters offer these policies. You may have to get these supplemental offerings from other agents.

If you have a dog, then you might want to purchase a dog bite or “pet liability” plan. While you might think that your four-legged friend would never harm anyone, there is always a chance that it could happen. According to the Insurance Information Institute, half of all incidents happen on the owner’s property. While homeowner’s liability may cover the medical costs, there can be complications, such as when incidents happen away from home. Having a specific dog bite policy will handle any unforeseen problems.

Those who live in coastal areas will want to get flood insurance. This protects your belongings from damage due to floods. What most homeowners don’t realize is that traditional homeowner’s plans do not cover this damage. That is why it is important to purchase these policies separately.



Burial coverage gives your surviving family members money to pay the cost of your funeral and burial. The cost is nominal, totaling only a few dollars a week or month. This policy is not often sold through a traditional insurance agency. You will either have to go to a broker or purchase from a funeral home.

Personal electronic equipment policies give you more protection than the standard homeowner’s plan. A traditional plan does not cover damage caused by installation errors. These programs offer repair or replacement of electronics such as computers, stereos, and televisions.

If you have valuable items like jewelry or high-end electronics, then you want to have supplemental coverage. While your homeowners plan does cover some items in the event of fire or theft, it does not cover everything.

Some businesses offer their full-time employees short-term disability. However, if your company is not one of those groups, you should look into having short-term disability added. Medical plans will help to cover bills from doctors and hospitals, but it will not help to cover normal monthly bills that can pile up if you have to miss work. While not all short-term disability programs are the same, it is something you should check into to ensure that you don’t fall behind on your bills.

Personal Finances Is All About Breaking Bad Habits And Creating New Ones

Personal Finances Is All About Breaking Bad Habits And Creating New Ones
People are often tempted to give unsolicited advice to others about the best way to manage finances. You’ll come across ideas that work and get you places, but often people are offering up such generalized advice. Trying to put together bits of information and use it in a meaningful way is not usually the best plan, as some of the information may be flawed and other parts confusing.



How can you take good care of your money and your finances so that you do not end up frittering away your savings on things you don’t need?

Generally, the problem is that most people lack a good understanding of just how important saving for the future is. Most people are going to do everything else with their money first before they even think about saving. Although saving in this way is better than not saving at all, it is in fact a highly ineffective way to build any kind of financial independence or security.

Managing Your Personal Finances

If you want to save money for the future, you’ll want these tips to help you on your plan. Many people who practice these methods are surprised at how easy they are to follow.

Simply set aside 20% of your paycheck.

Just reverse your spending and saving habits, instead of putting away your savings after you spent what you thought you needed from your income. Take 20 percent of your earnings first and put it towards savings before spending it all. Make sure to deposit this money as soon as you get paid. Whatever is left after the 20 percent has been saved can then go to paying bills, buying groceries and even getting yourself a new pair of shoes.

This method ensures that you’ll have the cash on hand that you need for your future and helps you to be more effective when you develop your budget. It’s a good feeling when you know that you have cash on hand for emergencies.

Keep Things Simple



There are too many people who are going to look at the latest gadgets and get wooed. You cannot let others around you dictate what you are doing with the money that is in hand. You want to buy the latest iPhone, but there is something you must ask yourself. Think about it, do you really need to spend the money on one?

Is there something in the newer model that is not there in your present one? There is no shame in being rewarded with luxurious items, but you need to keep it under control. You should never forego important expenses to purchase luxuries, and your twenty percent savings rule mustn’t be violated.

You Want Cash Over Credit

Don’t fall for fancy credit card marketing. So many people end up with huge debt due to starting to buy small items using their credit cards. It’s easy to get lured into the trap that a $50 purchase won’t wreak financial damage in the future because it can be paid off within the month. Actually, once the billing cycle rolls around, you are probably like most people who just pay the minimum amount of money towards the bill, making that $50 dress cost close to $100 in interest.

Try to use cash whenever possible. Save your credit cards for emergencies only. Replacing your credit cards with debit cards is an even better idea if possible.

Taking charge of a budget and getting your finances in order is simple. You just need to create good new habits to replace the bad old ones.
