How To Prevent Swine Flu

Wednesday, April 29, 2009

Swine Flu is a respiratory disease in pigs triggered by a virus called H1N1. The new strain of H1N1 is a deadly combination of viruses from pigs, birds and humans. They symptoms of Swine Flu are sudden fever, coughing, extreme exhaustion and muscle aches. There is also diarrhea and vomiting more than normal flu.

Risk factors: Medical experts say that people, who are exposed areas where pigs flock are at risk of contracting the virus. The strains of Swine flu rarely pass on from humans to humans. In rare cases, the virus mutates into a form that can move from one person to another. The strain responsible for the 2009 swine flu outbreak has apparently undergone such a mutation and may stay like that for a longer period of time.

Can Swine flu be prevented or cured? There is no vaccine which can prevent swine flu. Medicines like Tamiflu and Relenza can be effective, if taken in the early stages of the disease.

Is it safe to eat pork? Swine Flu is not caused by eating pork or its products including salami, ham and sausages. However, it is a good practice to cook pork over 70 degrees C, which kills the virus.

Why is it called swine flu? The virus is called swine flu because one of its surface proteins is similar to viruses that usually infect pigs. Pork industry in the US are putting pressure on the officials to change the name of the disease, because no pig as such have been found infected with this particular illness which has spread among humans.

Forex Trading with your Buddy

I do not believe that anyone who has been trading the currency markets for more than a few months will have failed to notice the phenomenal increase in market volatility.

With increased volatility, so we see that trends tend to be of much shorter duration if a trend can be found at all.

If you examine the GBP/USD for example, prior to the credit crisis it had been in an overall up trend from March 2nd 2002 - until October 2007. Well over 5 years.

If you had bought on the 2nd of March 2002, 1 single standard lot (not allowing for the roll over charges) you could have cashed that in on Friday evening October 5th 2007 with a profit of over SIXTY FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS.

That is a profit of a little under $1000 (per 1 single lot traded) each month for the duration of the trend.

Anyone that actually did this would have absolutely no problem with agreeing the common and often touted phrase - The Trend is your Friend.

Since November 2007 and today, the same pair has been in what can only be described as a complete reversal.

In the past 16 months, the Gbp/Usd has dropped by over 7,500 pips or, to put that in to perspective, for one single standard lot (not allowing for the roll over charges) you could have cashed that trade in for over SEVENTY FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS.

That is a profit of a little over $4600 (per 1 single lot traded) each month for the duration of the trend.

Now I am not sure about you but for those levels of profit I am willing to at least consider the trend as a possible friend.

Of course, many of us do not trade over such long periods of time but this does not mean that we cannot follow a trend of sorts.

Within each main trend there are smaller trends. These are intermediate trends and are best calculated from a 1 day and 4 hour chart.

Particularly when the markets are volatile, seeking out the intermediate trend is a very useful strategy as the longer term trend can be difficult to properly calculate.

There are many ways to calculate the intermediate trend, but failing all else, the time honoured and trusted method is simply to draw a trend line using at least 3 swing points on the four hour chart.

Perhaps the time is right to introduce a new trading maxim:

The trend may well be your friend, but when your friend is not available the intermediate trend is your best buddy.

Understanding a Loan is a Must Before Applying for One

WHAT MAKES ONE LOAN DIFFERENT FROM ANOTHER?

A good number of people think that a loan is simply a loan, and that's it, but the facts are quite different.

So assuming that you're looking for a loan, let's take a quick look at the different types, and at the different decisions that you'll need to make, and that way you'll soon understand what makes them different.

Starting with the broad brush strokes, there are secured and unsecured loans, and there are personal loans, home loans, and loans for various purchases such as an automobile. Then there are commissions, fees, and interest rates, plus additional things like the duration of the loan that must also be taken into account.

SECURED LOANS

In essence, a secured loan is simply a line of credit that is guaranteed by some kind of personal collateral, and the collateral will typically be more valuable than the amount that's being borrowed, and if it isn't then the interest will most likely be a little bit higher.

A classic example of a secured loan would be a home loan, but as you most probably know, nearly all the banks are in big trouble right now because they assumed that house prices could only keep going up, and they offered loans to almost anyone that they could tempt into buying real estate.

They merely required deposits that were nonsensically low in order to encourage people to borrow, and it was a terrible business practice that was simply rooted in greed, and it's now causing a lot of distress to everyone that got caught up in it.

To add insult to injury, the banks have now gone in completely the opposite direction, and made it so difficult to qualify for a home loan, that even people with very high credit scores are failing to qualify. It's still possible to get a home loan of course, and it's obviously easier if you already have a property that has a large amount of equity in it that will allow you to put down a good sized deposit on your new purchase.

Most lenders now require a minimum down payment of 20%, and if it's anything less then you'll need to obtain private mortgage insurance.

Home loans can basically be split into two categories, a fixed interest rate loan, which means that the interest rate that you agree to when you take out the loan will remain the same for the life of the loan, and a variable rate loan that will float according to market conditions, and it's pretty clear that the only direction in which a variable rate loan is likely to go right now, and it's up.

Home loans are usually for 15, 20, 25 or 30 years, and the shorter the better as far as cost is concerned, because you'll pay far less in interest.

On a thirty year loan for example it's not unusual for the first fifteen years to be exclusively interest, meaning that after fifteen years, that you won't have reduced your indebtedness one iota.

An automobile loan is another example of a secured loan, with the car itself being the collateral, so if you stop paying, then the bank repossesses your car and sells it, for hopefully more than you owe on it.

It's common for the auto-dealer to arrange financing for the buyer, but unless the loan is being subsidized by the manufacturer you'll more than likely get a better rate from a bank, or a third-party lending agency.

A car loan will most likely be for between 1-7 years, and perhaps surprisingly, they can even include a period of time when no interest at all is charged.

Once the interest does start accruing however, it will generally be between 7-14%, and if you decide on a shorter period of time, then you'll pay quite a lot less interest, not just because of the shorter repayment time, but also because the interest rate will be lower too.

UNSECURED LOANS

An unsecured loan, by definition requires no collateral, but unless you have excellent credit, then the interest rate will be extremely high.

The best illustration of an unsecured loan, would be what is most commonly known as a personal loan, and not only does this kind of loan usually have to be paid off very quickly, but the interest rate will be around 12%, and if you don't pay the loan back on time then the accumulated interest will escalate extremely quickly.

THE BOTTOM LINE

Which type of loan you apply for will depend on your personal circumstances, and also on what you want to buy, but before you make any final decision, please make sure that you understand exactly what you're getting into, and how much it will cost you.

Make Money Managing Your Investment From Home

Saturday, April 25, 2009

When we first approach the idea of investing our money, we rarely think about how we can manage our investment from home. Instead, we immediately think about putting it in a bank CD or some other third party managed investment option.

I'm not expert investor, only a successful one, so I long ago decided that the best person to manage my money was me; that meant that I would not go out to look for investment options, but I would rather manage all my investments from home, right from my pc.

When I say from home, I mean that your money will always stay with you, it will always be home, and it will be only you moving it around in order to make a profit out of your investment.

There are many investment options that you can benefit from without the need to be an expert. Among some of those option you will find forex trading and stock trading. I have greatly benefited from both of them, but between these two I will definitely choose forex trading, for three basic reasons:

1) Forex trading can be a profitable investment options regardless of any domestic or international economic crisis. In fact, often times of crisis offer the best opportunities.

2) There are affordable resources and tools such as forex softwares and courses that will get your forex investment up and running almost immediately with a high level of accuracy and effectiveness.

3) Forex trading with an adequate set of tools and resources can comfortably deliver monthly yields of over 60%.

The best of all this is that you will always manage your investment from home, so your hard earned money will always be on your sight and under your control, priceless!

Now, how can you start making money through an investment within the forex market?

Simple, you need either education (you must learn how to trade and manage your risk) or reliable trading tools such as softwares and expert advisors (some of which will even be able to manage your trading account all on their own). Whatever your choice, always start trading on a paper money or demo account.

If you start on the right foot, armed with reliable tools and resources designed to manage your investment from home, you will see for yourself how your money cannot be in better hands than your own.

It is also an easy business to start and you don't need to have thousands of dollars in capital to start one. The need for credit repair services is growing by the day and there seems to be no end, so being able to help others with their credit issues is ideal.

Before you start, there are some things you will need to look at. One is your own credit. Your credit report should be at the cream of the crop or close to it as possible. That would be hypocritical of your to have a credit repair services company and you look like you could use a dose of credit repair. So, if your credit is not where it should be, it's not a good idea to counsel others.

Other than that, you will need a name for the credit repair services business. Select one that is easy for others to remember. Before it's etched in stone, see if there are other businesses around that have the same company name or something very similar. When it comes to credit repair, you want to make sure that everything is right.

In addition to that, you will need to choose if your credit repair services business will be a sole proprietorship, partnership or corporation. There are highs and lows for each, but choose the one that best fits your business. You want the right fit so that you will be able to start your business and help people that need your expertise in credit repair.

One of the most important things about credit repair services is that you need to know the laws that are in place for credit repair companies. You must carefully study all of the local, state and federal laws that are in place. These laws are used to protect the consumer and also to keep you from incidents such as fraud, overcharging and charging for services that were not done or not co completed.

Make sure that you are not only familiar with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, but that you abide by it. When you are using credit repair to correct mistakes and have outdated items removed from a consumer's credit report, you must refer to this Federal law in order to do it the right way.

Once the word gets out, your business will be flooded with clients that will need your services.

How to Rebuild Your Credit With Credit Repair

If you are one of those people who has bad credit and need to make some changes, you can start the rebuilding process with a credit repair program. There are companies that specialize in credit repair services that can help you do just that. The companies are professional and they know what they are doing when it comes to rebuilding your credit.

The credit repair company will work with you to adhere to the local, state and federal government laws that deal with consumers and credit. There are rules that creditors and collectors are supposed to adhere to as far as providing information to the credit bureaus. When the company is in compliance with these laws, they will be able to help you rebuild your credit. Using credit repair services can help to do just that.

The credit repair company will work with the credit bureaus to get assistance on clearing debts of consumers that should not be there. So, if you have debts that are questionable, you can challenge them first. Then if you're not satisfied, then you can get the company involved. Using credit repair services can help to straighten this out.

Nine times out of ten, the bureaus will respond to the credit repair company and comply with their wishes. This is done through written correspondence and a follow up. Credit repair services can be used for this purpose. Once those items have been removed, you should see a difference in your credit report and your credit score.

Another way to rebuild your credit is to get a debt consolidation loan. These loans work to get rid of your current debt. The loan is structured in affordable monthly payments that are to be paid every month on time. The credit repair company will work with you to get you a loan that is affordable and that you will be able to pay off every month. When you start to make timely payments, your credit will improve and your credit score will increase. Using credit repair services enables you to do this.

You can also rebuild your score by paying the credit repair company directly. They in turn, are responsible for sending the payments to the creditors in a timely manner. Even though they are doing your work, you are still held responsible for the payments. So you'll have to find a company that you can rely on to get the payments in on time. There are companies that specialize in credit repair services that can make this happen.

Using credit repair services is an advantage that everyone wants to take advantage of. However, for those who do want to implement a credit repair program, it will be well worth their while in the long run. They just have to keep plugging away at making timely payments on a regular basis for the duration of the process. Before they know it, their credit will be new and improved. Their credit scores will turn back to normal. They will become a member of the creditworthy society.

Stay at Home Moms Can Earn Income at Home

Sunday, April 12, 2009

If you're a stay at home mom, you might be wondering if it's possible for you to earn Income at home. You may have heard of other moms getting their start with a home business, but it can seem impossible if you haven't come across an opportunity like that yourself. Don't worry - it's easier than ever to get started with your own home business!

Stay at home moms are in a unique position because they are already technically working at home, and have a schedule that is just as limited as people who work outside the home full time. That means anything you do from home will likely be in between naps and bedtimes!

That fact alone can make it seem far too daunting to start your own home business. While it can seem overwhelming, it's time to brush those fears away! There are definitely ways for you to earn a great income from home without taking any time away from your kids or from handling household tasks.

You've probably heard of jobs like selling Avon or Tupperware, but were you aware that it's even easier to get started selling online? You've probably bought many things online yourself. People buy everything from personal care products, books, clothes, toys, groceries, and everything else!

All you need to do is be on the other side of things. You can be part of the team that sells products online. It's a perfectly legitimate, wonderful way to earn income at home. It's also good news that there are companies that take care of all the technical aspects and order processing aspects for you.

While you can certainly start your own website and begin selling things on it, it's far easier to join a network marketing company that handles all of that for you. When you join one of these companies you'll usually be asked to pay a small amount of money to try out their product and become a member of their team. Then, you're free to sell the product to others via the pre-built website they give you.

Now is the best time to start an online business. With the economy in the dumps and the unemployment rate so high, people are turning to the Internet to create an income for themselves and their families.

The networking part is great as well! It can be really lonely being a stay at home mom. It seems like you're always dealing with toddlers and babies and never get to interact with adults! When you are a network marketer that is no longer an issue. You'll get to interact with other moms and business owners who are members of your upline and downline. The greatest thing is that everything can be done over the computer!

You don't have to go back to work or confine your schedule to fit that of a 'job'. Your kids are your number one priority, and earning an income at home with your own business is an incredibly smart way to make your life and your kids' lives even better. The freedom you achieve is unmatched when you're able to earn income at home.

All You Need To Know About Debt Settlement Programs

Many consumers swimming along happily in a sea of credit suddenly find themselves drowning in a quagmire of debt. According to a 1992 Federal Reserve study, 43 percent of U.S. families spend more than they earn and, according to Cardweb.com, almost one out of every 100 American households will file for bankruptcy during their lifetime.

What should you do if you are one of these consumers? You could take advantage of one of the many services available to you, such as debt settlement programs. You can have your financial freedom back again.

What Are Debt Settlement Programs?

For years, debt settlement has been a popular method for thousands of consumers to regain financial wellness. Debt settlement means that, with the help of a settlement negotiator, you work out an agreement with creditors to settle your delinquent payments or unpaid balances.

If you are behind on payments on a high interest loan, for example, it could take you as long as 20 years to pay your debt. Debt settlement programs can help shrink your payment terms and amounts, and they can also provide you with the following benefits:

A Current Credit
ReportWhen you sign up for, and begin, a debt settlement program, many creditors will “re-age” your account, or bring it to a current status.

Lowered Interest and Monthly Payments
Depending on your debt settlement program, your settlement negotiator can help reduce the interest payments and monthly payments on your outstanding loans.

A Reduction in Creditor Calls
Creditors call consumers regularly if they are behind on their payments or not making payments at all. Negotiators can work with creditors to eliminate this practice once you are enrolled in a program.

In addition to these benefits, debt settlement programs can also assign you a credit counselor. Besides playing an active role in your settlement, these counselors can also provide you with financial tools to teach you how to maintain a healthy spending practice.

What Types Of Debt Are Eligible?

While debt settlements can be performed on almost every type of debt, most settlement cases involve revolving credit, or credit cards. Why? It’s because credit card debt is one of the easiest and fastest types of debt to acquire. According to the Federal Reserve, Americans made $1.1 trillion worth of credit card purchases in 1999. In addition, consumers in the U.S. carry on average $5,800 in credit card debt from month to month. Based on this information, the Federal Reserve reports that if only the minimum monthly payment was made on this debt, it would take more than 30 years to pay it off. This debt would also include an additional $15,000 in interest.

However, remember that debt settlement programs are not just limited to credit cards. There are many debt settlement programs available that can address your wide-ranging needs.

Are Debt Settlement Programs Right For You?

Debt settlement programs can be ideal for people with a good credit history who have been making consistent payments, no matter how small, on their debts. If, however, your credit history shows that you are behind on your credit payments, or that you have significant “charge-offs” noted on your account history, you might not be able to participate in a debt settlement program.

Unfortunately, many people don’t think about healing their debt problems until they decide to make a big purchase, like buy a new home. Being proactive with your financial situation in advance and seeking advice from a credit counselor can help you get back on the financial well-being track before it’s too late.

Here are a few tips to keep in mind as you enroll in your debt settlement program:

Outcomes Are Different For Everyone
Not everyone has the same experience in a debt settlement program. For example, some people are fortunate to have their debt reduced down to 75 percent of their original payment, while others may only experience a 50 percent reduction.

Seek Negotiating Advice from a Debt Settlement
Firm If haggling and hardball negotiation is not your thing, there are several debt settlement firms that can provide you with settlement expertise.

Be Patient
Even though debt settlement programs can put you on the fast track to debt freedom, in some cases, paying off creditors can still take up anywhere from two to four years.

Look forward to the future
Stay focused and remember that the right debt settlement plan can lift you out of the quagmire and have you plain sailing again in no time!

However, every debt settlement case is different. It depends on your creditors, on what grounds they would like to settle your debts or if they at all want to agree to some kind of debt settlement. Once your creditors agree on a specific debt settlement procedure, you need make your payments accordingly. Going for debt settlement saves you significant amount of time and money that you might have wasted over the years paying back your credit card dues.

On the other hand, bankruptcy is often the last option for most people going through financial distress. This is due to the fact that it will show on their credit report for the next 10 years. Applying for bankruptcy requires the applicant to attend at least one hearing in the Federal Court if not more. Though it is not a very desirable option but in some cases, filing for bankruptcy is the best thing to do in order to get you out of your debts.

Thus, if you are in a major debt trap, do some more research on the given options and see which one will suit your needs the best. So, go ahead and make an educated decision and stabilize your financial future. Good Luck!

Using Credit Versus Never Using Credit

Have you ever heard someone proudly proclaim that they never use credit for anything? That they pay for everything with cash or check and have never even had a credit card? Maybe they are even so bold as to claim that their lack of credit usage gives them a better credit score overall.

It certainly sounds like a noble cause. After all, it can be very difficult to live in the United States or Canada without making use of credit cards, student loans, auto loans, or home mortgages. But here are certainly people who do it.

Unfortunately, those who claim this is a better strategy than using some credit responsibly are completely wrong.

Let's think about what credit is and how your credit score might relate to the greater purpose of credit. Credit is based on the principle called leverage, or the act of paying out a little bit at a time to obtain something of a greater value than each individual payment.

Let's use an example to better explain the concept. Let's say you want to go to college in order to get a better job. Maybe you currently make $30,000 a year, but with your new degree you could be making $60,000. Considering the average lifespan of a North American, an extra $30,000 a year can be quite valuable when you add it up. Therefore, this education is worth quite a bit to you.

Of course, the universities know this too, so they want to charge an amount for their education that is relative to the value that their students will receive. So, let's say that 4 years of university will cost you $30,000 dollars.

Even if you saved 100% of your money for a year, never spending it on things like food, clothing, and housing you would just be able to afford 4 years of college courses. Not to mention that you may not be able to keep your job while you take those classes, so you would have to figure out a way to pay for food and housing while you're in school.

As you can see, someone who insists on never using credit could have a very hard time making ends meet while pursuing an education.

But someone who is in the business of lending would see this as a great opportunity. After all, here is someone who is trying to improve their life and their earning power by going back to school. Assuming you complete the courses and get the job you want, this would be a terrific investment. So which would you rather: scrape and save for a year or more to afford a college degree, or take out a loan now which will be even easier to repay once you graduate?

As for the argument that taking a loan and making use of credit will hurt your score, it's just not true. If you use credit responsibly as in our example of using borrowed money to improve your education and salary, and make your payments on time, your credit will be much better than the person who attempted it without a loan.

You see, lenders want to lend to people who will use credit wisely. Things like college degrees, home mortgages, or a loan for a reliable car are loans which can be used to improve your quality of life. It is this improvement that gives you a greater ability to use credit responsibly.

Let's Make Money! How To Make Money By Picking Out Hot Penny Stocks

Monday, April 6, 2009

Penny stocks are one of the most interesting investment opportunities. Because some people view these shares to be risky, I see many people avoid them altogether In reality, there is incredible opportunity to earn massive cash with penny shares once you understand what to look for.

Any share under $2.00 is what I view as a penny share. When I choose a stock to buy, I search for a company that is relatively new. Some shares of well established companies are cheap because of problems that the company has experienced. I try to look for businesses that are up and coming rather than established ones that are simply inexpensive due to difficulties the business has faced. This makes it possible to earn some tremendous cash down the road.

Let's now have a look at how you can pick out the best penny stocks. When you know what to look for, you can start making massive profits.

Studying the industry that the company is in is a crucial first step. Is the competition in the industry too large for a new entrant? This is a top-down analysis of the industry to ensure that the organization is involved in an area that gives them the chance to be a success.

Next, of course you want to examine the company itself. I always like to find a company that differentiates themselves from the competition in some manner. Possibly they make a special product or service, or maybe they are different because they have less expensive prices.

The Best Method of Forex Trading Available Online

If you are trying to make money with the forex you are probably looking for the best method of forex trading online. Naturally you are going to want to invest your time and money into the best method available. But what method will be the best for you is going to depend on your own skill level. It also depends on whether you want to do your own trading or let an automated program trade for you.

I prefer to let an automated program do my trading. I spent several years trading manually but I found an automated program that that makes more consistent profits than I do trading myself and it frees me up to do other things besides sit at the computer and analyze charts. But some people still like to do their trading manually themselves. For those who do it can be exciting and very rewarding once you learn to successfully trade.

If you plan on doing your own trading finding the best method of forex trading online is going to be a matter of personal choice. What might be best for someone else might not be best for you and your trading style. So you may have to experiment with different methods until you find one that fits you and your trading habits.

If you are a beginning trader beware of the trap that many traders fall into searching for the perfect method. Before putting much energy into finding the right method it's going to be more important for you as a new trader to develop your own personal trading habits and discipline. In the beginning just find any simple trading method that you understand and are comfortable with. Practice trading on a demo and don't worry about whether it makes or loses money. Just practice trading the method consistently. After you develop good trading habits then you can start looking for the best method that will be right for you and will make you money.

In my opinion the best method is to use an automated robot. The one I use makes a nice income, doesn't cost much and allows me to spend my time doing other things.

Your Auto Insurance Coverage Explained

Wednesday, April 1, 2009

If you drive, you need auto insurance. But many drivers still cruise around town uninsured. But why? It's because they don't think they'll end up in an auto accident. However, everyday hundreds of drivers find themselves in auto accidents, and I'm sure it's safe to say that they weren't expecting it.

Auto insurance is security. It's a way to protect your car, yourself, and other drivers while on the road. Auto insurance policy holders pay premiums and in return, the auto insurance company subsidizes expenses involved in an auto accident. It's a way to protect drivers against costly car repair, hospital, and even legal bills as a result of an auto accident.

But there isn't just one type of auto insurance available. Drivers have a few options they can choose from when selecting an auto insurance policy. Drivers can choose the level of coverage and liability of their policy. However, more liability and coverage means higher premiums. So how do you decide what policy to get?

What to Select:

When shopping for auto insurance, you first need to establish what type of coverage the state requires you to have and what additional coverage you want. Different states have different auto insurance coverage laws, so be sure to check with the DMV or your auto insurance company about specific state requires. But, in addition to state required levels of coverage, you can always add additional coverage to your policy. Standard coverage options include medical coverage, collision, and comprehensive coverage. Liability coverage options include injury and property damage.

If you want to protect yourself from paying high medical fees for someone you injured in a car accident, include injury liability to your policy. With most policies, you can even state the level of liability coverage, dictating how much your insurance company will cover and what your premiums will be.

What Not to Select:

Some people see auto insurance as a burden. They think they're perfect drivers and will never get in an auto accident. And if they do, it won't be their fault and the driver at fault will pay for any necessary repairs and medical expenses. So, they opt for the most inexpensive or basic coverage possible.

If you're one of these "perfect drivers" who thinks this way, you're not looking at the entire picture. What if you're rear ended and injured by an uninsured driver who flees the scene and is never found? Now you're stuck with medical and car repair expenses. If you had a policy that covered you in such an event, you wouldn't be stuck with the entire bulk of the bills. Basic auto insurance only provides basic coverage; and the term "basic coverage" means different things to different insurance companies. If you're shopping for auto insurance, don't just ask for the most inexpensive and basic policy. Think about what you need to keep yourself safe on the road in any situation. You never know what will happen when you're on the road.

Auto insurance is a basic necessity of life. If you want to keep yourself safe while on the road, you need to have proper auto insurance and a policy with the coverage and liability you need to protect yourself and your passengers in any situation.
