How is it going to be now?
New president new expectations
There have been 45 presidents in American history. First, George Washington, then John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and so on... Today America has their 46th president - Joseph R. Biden Jr (was a member of the Democratic Party, 47th vice president during the Obama administration from 2009 to 2017, United States Senate from 1973 to 2009. who once said:
“America is an idea. An idea that is stronger than any army, bigger than any ocean, more powerful than any dictator or tyrant. It gives hope to the most desperate people on earth, it guarantees that everyone is treated with dignity and gives hate no safe harbor. It instills in every person in this country the belief that no matter where you start in life, there’s nothing you can’t achieve if you work at it. That’s what we believe.”
JOE BIDEN, APRIL 25, 2019
The United States of America throughout 200 years became very powerful but with a power comes responsibility. It is one of the strongest countries in the world. They are able to influence the shape of our reality. They know it and they are creating the reality we are living in. We can easily see their influence in times of the president elections. Every time USA have an election, the whole world expects lots from new president of the United States. Countries around the globe have their expectations towards president Biden.
China wants Biden to end the trade war, remove Trump's tariffs on Chinese goods, and to stop blocking Chinese tech giant Huawei. It also expects to collaborate with Washington on combating climate change and the pandemic. On relations with Israel some Middle East countries want the US to broker more deals like those between Israel, United Arab Emirates and Bahrain. On Iran, some Gulf countries are irritated by Biden's plans to revive the 2015 Iran nuclear deal. India expects more support from Joe Biden, against Chinese agreession on the Himalayan borders by building a broad coalition and wants H-1B visas to be lifted. People in Mexico and Central America want Joe Biden to end some controversial migration policies and support stronger sanctions against Nicolas Maduro in Venezuela. Nigeria wants Biden to reverse President Trump's travel ban policy and support Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala for the World Trade Organisation director general job. Germany hopes the Biden administration will represent a return to a transatlantic relationship which shares and champions democratic values and traditional diplomacy.
The United States of America is not an old country. It was, back in 15th to 18th century, colonised and now is fully independent and strong like no other. By issuing the Declaration of Independence, adopted by the Continental Congress on July 4, 1776, the 13 American colonies severed their political connections to Great Britain. The Declaration summarized the colonists motivations for seeking independence. By declaring themselves an independent nation, the American colonists were able to confirm an official alliance with the Government of France and obtain French assistance in the war against Great Britain. Right time, right document, right people. That is all what it takes to be the World power. Now, the question is what is next? What president Biden is going to do about all the requests? How many enemies and how many allies will he make? We will see in time what is going to happened. For now, we needs to be patient and watch. I have a high hopes that the good change will continue. It is The United States of America after all. I think he will have a huge influence on our reality. Let’s hope that he will bring world wild peace.

Guide to becoming a MILLIONAIRE!
You probably heard at least once in your life phrase: Money will not buy you happiness. If not, why everyone wants to be rich? Let's be honest, money can most definitely brings you happiness. It might not free our souls from chains of reality but it will pay the bills and give you quite comfortable life. Now, that we established that money can and will bring us happiness, what's the plan? How do we get rich? Does it have to be illegal? After all there is a saying that first million is always stolen (or at least that's what I've heard from some fellow broke people). Well, not necessarily. Rich people most of the time were born rich. They simply got a head start. Not every rich person was born rich though. What is it that those people have in common? They know the real definition of money. As Robert Kyiosaki says, money is debt. If we want to be rich we have to learn to manage the debt. The book "Rich Dad Poor Dad" is Mr. Kyiosaki's story of growing up with two dads - his real father and the father of his best friend, his rich dad - and the ways in which both men shaped his thoughts about money and investing. The book explodes the myth that you need to earn a high income to be rich and explains the difference between working for money and having your money work for you. In his book he reveals that school will not teach us about money. After all, school was created for one reason only: to make a good factory workers. No matter what your degree will say. The whole institution is programming young generation to be enslaved. Learning about money is the first step to change your view on life. Being rich means thinking like rich. Rich people do not buy random stuff, they invest. According to Wikipedia "Money is any item or verifiable record that is generally accepted as payment for goods and services and repayment of debts, such as taxes, in a particular country or socio-economic context. The primary functions which distinguish money are: medium of exchange, a unit of account, a store of value and sometimes, a standard of deferred payment." On the other hand we can find a slightly more clear definition of fiat money on Investopedia: fiat money is a government-issued currency that is not backed by a physical commodity such as gold or silver but rather by the government that issued it. The value of fiat money is derived from the relationship between supply and demand and the stability of the issuing government. If the second definition made you think about the whole economic situation in the world, then you not alone. When I was reading this definition I got a bit confused. They teach us in schools that we have to work hard, save money and maybe then we get to retire without worry. But if the value of money is strictly depend only on the issuing government, then we are not in the most interesting situation. After the pandemic, value of money drastically decreased as the governments all around the world has experienced the largest economic crisis in a century if not more. This is why we should not be scared of debt. Its part of life and once we master it, we win. We need to be also aware about the scammers who will try to sell you the idea of strugle free life within minutes. Nothing that is good comes free. It all takes work. Not for someone, for YOURSELF. Grow, learn and be wise.

Make America ?????? Again.
I am upset. I avoid the news for a reason. It gives me anxiety. Or I get mad. Or I get sad. And then I have a very very hard time shaking that feeling. I'm on anxiety regulators for a reason. So unlike the rest of America, I do NOT start my day with the morning news. I start it with coffee, my kids, more coffee, some cleaning, more coffee, some singing with the birds like Snow White, more coffee, and then... yeah. More coffee.

Another One Bites The Dust
“You took me for everything that I had And kicked me out on my own” – Queen As Los Angeles students prepared to return to school at the end of the Summer break, families at the North Valley Military Institute (NVMI) were in for a rude awakening. The charter school’s administration had rejected the LAUSD’s offer of space under PROP-39 the previous April but continued to tell parents that a new campus would be ready in time to start classes. Ignoring the NMVI’s impending collapse, the Los Angeles County Office of Education’s (LACOE) regulators did nothing to ensure parents were warned to make alternative arrangements. They even allowed the school to hold its orientation session for new students. When Mark Ryan announced the school would close one week into the school year, families were left scrambling, their children behind their peers in their new schools.
