America has the Strongest Growth in Millionaires 2007-08-31 13:33:00 In today’s economy it doesn’t seem like many people are making much money today. The middle class is on the decline, housing prices are dipping and debt to income ratios are high. However, America has the strongest growth in millionaires over the past few years. This growth has become so profound that it adds up to more money than many other nations combined. The amount of new millionaires was up 14% in recent years and is expected to keep going up over the next few years according to World Report. When we add the amount of millionaires from the U.S. and Canada it beats out all of the millionaires from Europe, Asia, Latin America, Asia and the Middle East combined. The problem is that the concentration of these millionaires is also going upwards. In the 1990’s the top 1% of the countries wealthiest people owned around one third of the Nation’s liquid assets. The wealthiest 5% of Americans own approximately 60% of the nation’s liquid assets. The good news is that according to ... America

The Collapsing Economy 2007-08-31 09:42:00 Government control of the trade deficit is absolutely essential to the survival and future economic strength of the country. The trade deficit is running straight towards a collapse. American officials and industry leaders are simply having difficult controlling what is happening in the American economy. The average American citizen is falling further into debt and continues to buy and purchase products with no concern for their own financial strength. Adding corporate greed with government mismanagement and the consumer culture doesn’t calculate well for the future. In 1975 the American trade deficit was positive and the country was making money hand over fist. The trade deficit increased until the beginning of the 90’s when America experienced a booming economy. However, by the time the late 90’s hit the country was again importing much more then exporting and this is now at a point it can damage American’s livelihoods. There is an inverse effect between rising imports and de ...

Business Networking and Social Site 2007-08-31 09:00:00 Business owners must network if they plan on increasing sales and meeting like-minded business people that can take them to the next level. It is the old saying “It is not what you know but who you know that makes the difference!” Having a great idea but nobody to help you make it a reality is almost the same things as not having an idea at all. The problem is that business owners and business minded people live busy lives. They don’t get the chance to get out there and really make things happen. Since these business people are online it would make sense that they engage in a business networking site that will put them in contact with the right people and still help them meet attractive people of who think like they do. Business and love are not mutually exclusive.For a limited time the Readers of this blog can receive 100% free registration. You have nothing to lose!

The Effects of Cross Boarder Trucking with Mexico 2007-08-31 08:55:00 Mexican Trucks squeal out onto American highways in hopes of delivering fresh produce and products to American companies and stores. At the same time an American truck loaded with electronics zips into the Mexican road ways to make its way down to some retailer. Under the North American Free Trade Agreement this was all supposed to happen a decade prior. The question people have is “is this beneficial for America?”The Mexican Transportation Ministry is going to limit the participation to 100 Mexican companies for the first year. Both the U.S. and Mexico want to study the overall impact of such a program in hopes of furthering the interest of both countries. What the governments are concerned about is safety of Mexican vehicles, smuggling and getting people to return to Mexico.The U.S. has a solution to part of the problem.

Do they add another brick and mortar location and the associated overhead and headaches that come with it?

Why I Like My Old Ford Pick-Up 2007-08-30 20:30:00 Yes…I have one of those Fords. Even though the company is going through a shake up Ford is hear to stay. As a matter of fact it is an American legend. Within a few miles I still drive the historic Henry Ford Museum where Henry Ford’s farm was and the River Rouge Plant where the great union strikes were held.My Used Ford is a 1999 Ford Ranger 4X4. It has a V6 engine (lots of power) and has been used for everything from hauling boats to picking up apples at my farm. As it rounds nearly 9 years old I haven’t had much maintenance on it. From time to time something breaks down but Fords are simply much cheaper to fix then many import brands. A quick stop at one of the Ford Dealers is enough.Someone might ask, “Why not get a new truck?” and I reply “Out of all of the Used Cars there is nothing like my Ford”. I love owning my Ford so much that I recently gave it an overhaul including breaks and exhaust system. Its body is in such good shape that I am considering giving it a pai ...

Using Public Domain Content For Your Online Business 2007-08-30 19:42:00 Let's establish that anything that is public domain is free, meaning that if you want it, you just take it. You don't have to pay for it and you don't have to tell anybody you took it. It's there for everybody to have. That's why it's called public domain.This is one of the reasons why you'll go into a book store and see a "collection" of works by some author from long ago. Most likely, all his works are now in the public domain and somebody was smart enough to realize that people might be interested in reading some of these long lost treasures or obscure works. Sometimes unknown writers and their works of literature become quite popular with just the right spin. The key is finding them.In order to do that, you first have to know what constitutes a public domain work as far as the time period. This is where things get a little fuzzy and hard to keep track of.Let's start with the easy one first. Any work that was published before 1923 is considered public domain. There are no re ...

Furniture Can Make or Break Your Image 2007-08-30 18:54:00 Everyone loves high quality furniture that shines with the highly polished finish of exceptional work. People who own homes and offices know that the design, size, quality and feel of furniture can make or break their whole ensemble and image. Imagine yourself walking into an office or someone’s home and see cheap, discount and imitation furniture. You might ask yourself “Why would they buy furniture or buy sofa from a discount retailer?” Your whole impression of the person seems to change in terms of whether or not they are competent, whether or not they have any money, and whether or not they have reasonable tastes.Now imagine yourself walking into an office or home with high quality and nicely polished furniture made of real wood. You might think to yourself, “Those are one of those great entertainment centers. I wonder where they bought it?” As you sit down on one of their new sectionals you strike up a conversation about their furniture. You would be amazed to find out t ...

Wonder Bread Highlights Failure to Continuously Improve 2007-08-29 15:13:00 Companies must continue to strive and change with the time. When companies fail to keep innovative and in touch with their customers’ needs they begin to see declining market share and outdated products. In some companies the concepts of continuous improvement and continuous change have not made it to the top executives. Their executives have become crusty, old and moldy.Wonder Bread will be laying-off around 1,300 workers in Southern California, closing 17 distribution centers, 19 outlet stores and an additional 5 locations. The Southern Californian market is all over. In addition the Home Pride Bread, Baker’s Inn and Roman Meal brands will be disappearing from the market forever.One of the reasons why the company is struggling is because “We must stop reinforcing failure and press harder where there is success,” the CEO Mr. Jung said. The company has been ignoring market data that show that consumers’ tastes have change, low carbohydrate dieting has become popular and the c ...
