Here’s Why Today’s Investors Should Rush to Africa
“A Cradle of Humankind” - that’s the name the world gave Africa when the archaeological discoveries made it clear that the first people to walk the Earth were, in fact, Africans. And the world starts to appreciate the value of this continent to some extent.
Becka MaisuradzePublished 4 years ago in TraderWhat Your Credit Score Affects and How to Fix It
While nearly every adult in the U.S. has a credit score, people’s understanding of them vary greatly. Some are diligent about maintaining stellar credit, reviewing reports, and avoiding temptations that can ding their credit. Others know that they have a credit score but have no idea where they fall on the scale, or what to do about it. The fact of the matter is that a good credit score opens many doors for you and your family. A bad one, on the other hand, may force you to struggle to get things you want or even need. We’ll look at how your score is assessed, what that means, and what to do about it.
Paisley HansenPublished 4 years ago in TraderTalking Brook: ‘Yaron Brook Show: Zuckerberg on Wealth, Navarro's Muse'
Dr. Yaron Brook brings his expertise in parsing through newspapers to his show. He claims that the best paper, The Wall Street Journal, still has errors, flubs, and outright “nonsense.” He disagrees with economists like Thomas Sowell who contends that economics is about “scarcity” but still holds him in esteem. Dr. Brook challenges the scarcity notion. He says that economics is about production and trade. He finds that we live in abundance. He offers the example of how you can take “gunky stuff” like oil and make it into something that can be made into a human value to be consumed. Epistemology (respect for facts, reality, and the mind) and ethics (defining a proper code of morality) ought to drive economics to the good doctor.
Skyler SaundersPublished 5 years ago in Trader“Talking Brook: ‘Yaron Brook Show Economic Myths - Middle Class Stagnation’”
What Dr. Brook gets right (amongst a whole host of other topics) is economics. It’s his strong suit. He swings open the door to the show by redressing a commenter about the fallacy of how the standard of living has gone down in recent decades. He holds that an individual can do “fantastically well” today as opposed to the 1950s. Dr. Brook admonishes a YouTube commenter for not displaying sufficient grammar and spelling skills. He asks how someone determines their wages in the marketplace of worth. The good doctor concedes that while we’re in a good place across the world, things can be much better.

You have probably heard the word “economy” discussed in the news. It sounds important, but what does that mean and how does it relate to you and your investments?

Globally, Corporate funds peaked in 2017, and have been the center of growth for more than a decade. US non-financial companies expected tax laws that will allow them to recover offshore cash without legal action, brought their total liquid assets to a record $2.1 trillion by the end of 2017. Other non-financial companies in Europe, The Middle East and Africa recorded one trillion in corporate funds for the second year in a row, although net spending on mergers and acquisitions nearly tripled in 2017 to a seven-year high of $96 billion.

Ever wonder why there are different types of businesses? Shouldn't everything just be a business or not a business? There are C-Corps, S-Corps, LLCs, partnerships. Companies are public and private, it gets confusing.

Inflation comes from the latin "inflationem" meaning a puffing up or blowing into. Or flatulence, lol! It’s one of the things that can blow up your budget, and the economy over time if unchecked.

Soda, Cola, Pop, Coke; it goes by a lot of names, but the industry standard is Carbonated Soft Drink (CSD). It’s one of the most profitable industries in the United States, and two companies control over 70 percent of the market. The Coca-Cola Company and PepsiCo, Inc are the main players in the CSD industry; but, being the biggest in an industry doesn’t guarantee a large amount of profits. In 2017 Coke made $1,283,000,000, and Pepsi made $4,908,000,000, so the question is:
Why Become a Silver Stacker
I would like to take you through my journey into this seemingly thoughtless investment. At first, you could think to yourself that it would be simple to consider silver and gold an investment, but I would argue that you are missing the bigger picture outlook when it comes to "hedging" your money into this metal. Some of the theory behind why I stack silver and gold is grounded in the calculated conspiracy that the US Dollar will, in fact, collapse. I will start with why that is and then I will lead you into how I ended up with silver and gold as the way to combat this. The methodology is as complicated as you want to make, and the joy of watching your stack grow is a feeling that you cannot get in the stock market.

Amani MtimbaPublished 5 years ago in TraderHow Do Insurance Companies Make Money?
Ah, insurance. There's never been a truer thing that you can't live with or live without. This is especially true when people who can't afford health insurance get hit with a tax penalty that makes them... well, even less able to afford health insurance.
