    Favorite Website Host?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I know GoDaddy is not that popular to many, but I have been using them with no complaints. A feature that I especially like with the plan I have (that may be included with a lot of different hosting plans with many other companies) is that you can host unlimited web sites from the same account...

    buying a home to LIVE IN is NOT a good investment

    You're not comparing apples with apples. That 773024.40 is paid over 30 years and isn't a lump sum payment. You can't compare this with the $873,024 you would sell the house for after 30 years because the time value of money implications are completely different. One is a final lump sum cash...

    Must have resources

    Excellent advice, thanks for the tip. I was wondering of a good way to extract some terms from the competition so I know what else I can try to rank for. :eusa_clap: I couldn't live without gmail, nor could I imagine using any other email client. Google's Gmail client is perfect and wouldn't...

    Kind of like, we will plow through this just like every other difficulty we've encountered? Very true :)

    Global Currency?

    INVESTING 
    Good point. While a global currency does by no means mean a one world government, it certainly would make it easier for one to form if that is the agenda of the world's leaders in the future.

    How to put together a directory

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Belonging to a directory is never bad for SEO, since it is considered a backlink. Why not offer businesses or hotels one free year to be listed on your directory, just to get your name out, then they might want to continue paying you since they have a benefit of a backlink. If you want to do it...

    Scenes from the recession

    Russ H - great point. While looking at these pictures I was thinking to myself that at least some of these could be applicable to non-recessionary times and could be happening regardless of the economy. Completely agreed, the media will try to report on doom and gloom whenever possible because...

    Global Currency?

    INVESTING 
    Well said, I see your argument much more clearly and you do bring up some valid points. The only reason I'm hesitant to agree with your point about centralized power and ability to freeze assets is due to some real life examples... Yes, absolutely if we have a global currency there will HAVE...

    Jay-Z on luck

    Wow, couldn't agree more. And I loved the way he worded it too. Simply relying on luck (either good or bad) is just a way of placing the blame on something else. If you have the perspective that you create your own luck, you not only are taking responsibility for your actions, but are also...

    Name your price Cafe thrives

    I think it is a great idea for promotional events to attract new customers and to get your name out, but doing this type of thing long term, I fear would attract customers who wouldn't pay a fair price.

    Global Currency?

    INVESTING 
    The entire global economy is shaky due to its reliance on the US, thus the saying "If the US sneezes, the rest of the world catches a cold". With the US Dollar being the international medium of exchange, as well as issuing huge amounts of debt, each country's economy has grown quite...

    Aiming High Or Aim Low?

    MINDSET 
    Wow, wonderful message, and he is absolutely right. If we aim high and are motivated enough to accomplish more ambitious goals, we will find a way to do it. The "how" becomes unimportant because you will find a way to do it regardless. The "how" is "none of your business" because it will do...

    Help Me Understand Public Companies

    Very interesting observation. We'd probably have to check out their actual annual reporting with the SEC to see whats going on in more detail. Very curious to see what Analyzer finds out if you decide to check it out :)

    The Mortgage Fiasco ... Not My Fault!

    MINDSET 
    The term exotic is a relative term since the Fixed Rate, 30 year mortgage is considered the standard in the US. And, yes, to us entrepreneurs and money-minded people, ARMs and Alt-As seem pretty easy to understand. But to less savvy banking consumers, this could get a little confusing, being...

    The Mortgage Fiasco ... Not My Fault!

    MINDSET 
    We're missing an element to this story though. Yes, I think individuals should take responsibility for getting in over their heads in debt, BUT there is some fault with bankers. Sub-prime mortgage products and other "exotic" debt instruments were originally created to suit the more...
