In years past, collectors?who are among the most discerning shoppers?had few avenues for conveniently finding and then purchasing the items they were seeking. They would have to visit specialty shops and expensive boutiques. They often waited for ...

If the U.S. economy had to be summed up in one word, the word would be unsustainable. From entitlement programs to trade deficits, the U.S. economy cannot continue indefinitely on its current course. Sadly, changing course is difficult and political impossibilities are quickly giving way to mathematical impossibilities. The economy will soon come face to face with problems that cannot be solved and it will crash. The crash will be major and recovering from it will take many decades.The Weak DollarLarge trade and budget deficits have been weakening the dollar in the past few years. The dollar has fallen 30% against the Euro and 20% ...

A million dollars sounds like a lot of money to someone who makes an average salary, but it?s a drop in the bucket to a Warren Buffett or a Bill Gates. Running a hundred metres in a few seconds seems like a miracle to ordinary mortals, but a track and field athlete will work hard to shave even more off that time.Yet presenters often quote statistics without benchmarks, so the audience doesn?t know how to evaluate them. Is $10,000 a lot of money? Well it is for a bicycle. It?s not much for a house, unless that house is in a small village ...

Choosing one that suits an entrepreneur's needs and skills as well as interests.2. Choosing one that pays enough in commissions ...

A British politician, Richard Cobden once (1857) wrote:"Free Trade is God's diplomacy and there is no other certain way of uniting people in the bonds of peace"International, free trade is particularly important to developing, poor, countries (among them the "economies in transition").Without international trade, the local economy is limited. It does not manufacture and produce more than it can consume. If it produces excess products, commodities, or services - no one buys them, they accumulate as inventory, and they bring about losses to the producers and, often, a recession. So, in the best of cases - even assuming optimal ...

Some call it the "unofficial" or "informal" economy, others call it the "grey economy" but the old name fits it best: the "black economy". In the USA "black" means "profitable, healthy" and this is what the black economy is. Macedonia should count its blessings for having had a black economy so strong and thriving to see it through the transition. If Macedonia had to rely only on its official economy it would have gone bankrupt long ago.The black economy is made up of two constituent activities:Legal activities that are not reported to the tax authorities and the income from which goes untaxed and unreported. For instance: it is not ...
