We are in the information age, and technology has made the world a global village. We live in a global community as you can see us in various forum discussing. How far have you consider reaping from these?

We live in the richest world at the richest time in all of human history. We are

Money has energy of its own and it is largely attracted to people who treat it well. Money tends to flow toward those people who can use it in the most productive ways to produce valuable goods and services, and who can invest it to create employment and opportunities that benefit others.

At the same time, money flows away from those who use it poorly, or who spend it in non-productive ways. Our job is to acquire as much money as we honestly can and then to use it enhance the quality of our life and the lives of those we care about. Those that have the desire to get much money will get much of it than those that are not hungry of getting enough money. That is the truth.

Still, A.I.G.’s board voted on Sunday to approve the transaction, the people said, and on Sunday night A.I.G.’s chief executive, Robert H. Benmosche, was headed to Hong Kong to brief regulators about the transaction. It is unclear whether the transaction will be approved immediately, and other bidders — including rival insurance companies and sovereign wealth funds — may still try to top Prudential’s bid, one of these people said.

A sale of the Hong Kong-based business, commonly known as A.I.A., would lead to the biggest repayment yet of the more than $180 billion that the government has invested in A.I.G. as part of its huge bailout. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York, which holds preferred shares in A.I.A., would receive the first $16 billion in proceeds from the sale.

Before the financial crisis of 2008, A.I.G. was the world’s largest insurer, owning a diverse array of services across the globe assembled largely by a predecessor, Maurice R. Greenberg. Since its rescue by the federal government, however, the company has sought to sell off businesses to help repay its bailout funds.

Mr. Benmosche has outlined a future for the company in which it focuses on selling property and casualty insurance worldwide, under a unit rebranded Chartis, and life insurance only in the United States.

Soon after arriving at A.I.G. in August, Mr. Benmosche slowed the company’s sales campaigns, instead seeking to fetch higher prices for the businesses.

Beyond the sale of A.I.A., the insurer is also trying to sell another life insurance unit, the American Life Insurance Company, to MetLife for about $15 billion, according to people briefed on the matter. Those negotiations have been stymied over a tax issue that requires resolution from the Internal Revenue Service, these people said, though they still expect to reach a deal.

It is also seeking to the sale of other units, including an aircraft-leasing business.

A.I.A., founded in 1919 and one of A.I.G.’s oldest divisions, is widely considered one of the top businesses within A.I.G.: the division has about 20 million policy holders throughout Asia.

A.I.G. had been preparing an initial public offering of the division, lining up banks to oversee what would have been among the largest listings this year. But a sale to Prudential would have more certainty than a huge offering, which helped draw the support of government officials for a deal.

Under the terms of the expected deal, Prudential will pay about $25 billion in cash and about $10.5 billion in a combination of stock, preferred shares and convertible preferred shares, the people said. The British company, whose market value was about $23.3 billion as of Friday, is expected to sell a large new batch of shares to help finance the deal.

Representatives for Prudential and A.I.G. declined to comment.

In taking over A.I.A., Prudential would become the indisputable leader in the Asian life insurance sector.

A 162-year-old firm — which is not related to Prudential Financial in the United States — the company already draws a majority of its revenue from Asia, with more than 11 million policy holders in 13 markets there.

The acquisition would accelerate a strategy outlined by Prudential’s chief executive, Tidjane Thiam, to drastically increase the firm’s revenues in Asia, one of the fastest-growing markets for life insurance.

Prudential first approached A.I.G. last year, but it was rebuffed because its offer was too low, according to people briefed on the matter. Others, including rival insurers and sovereign wealth funds, had also expressed interest in acquiring part or all of A.I.A.]]> Sun, 28 Feb 2010 21:44:15 -0500 93400 http://www.dreamteammoney.com/index.php?showtopic=93399
* Merck KGaA will fund deal from own cash and debt

* Merck wins Millipore away from Thermo Fisher (Adds details about synergies, updates deal value)

FRANKFURT, Feb 28 (Reuters) - Germany's Merck KGaA (MRCG.DE) on Sunday said it agreed to buy U.S. biotech tool maker Millipore Corp (MIL.N) for around $6 billion in cash, as the company looks to build its lab equipment business.

Merck, the world's largest maker of chemicals for flat-panel displays, said late on Sunday it agreed to acquire Millipore for $107 per share in cash, valuing the deal at around $7.2 billion including net debt.

The deal snatches Millipore away from rival bidder Thermo Fischer Scientific Inc (TMO.N). A source familiar with the situation told Reuters on Feb. 22 that Thermo Fisher offered to buy Millipore for $6 billion [ID:nN22198210], but the exact terms of that bid were unknown.

Merck's bid represents a 13 percent premium over Friday's closing price for Millipore shares, which had already been boosted by recent takeover speculation.

In a statement, Merck said the tie-up would create a supplier of equipment and substances for research to the life science sector with 2.1 billion euros ($2.7 billion) in annual sales. Millipore, which makes filters and purifiers for laboratory water and other materials used in making biotechnology drugs, had revenue of $1.65 billion, or 1.21 billion euros, last year.

Merck said the deal will create about $100 million of annual cost savings, which it expects to reach within three years of closing.

Merck said it expects the transaction to clear regulatory review and be completed in the second half of 2010.

Family-controlled Merck, which traces its roots to a 17th century pharmacy, has been a smaller player in the biotech-research equipment market. It relies heavily on liquid crystals, the key chemicals for TV flat screens, and on multiple sclerosis drug Rebif and cancer drug Erbitux for earnings.

In 2006, it was trumped by national rival Bayer (BAYGn.DE) in a takeover battle over German contraceptives specialist Schering, but the following year it acquired Swiss biotech company Serono for 10.3 billion euros.

To finance the Millipore deal, Merck will use cash it holds on its balance sheet and will take out bridge loans, which at a later stage will be replaced by a bond issue, a spokeswoman said.

Millipore had confirmed on Tuesday it was evaluating strategic alternatives, including a merger or sale of the company. [ID:nSGE61N05L]

Millipore shares hit an all-time high of $97.58 after reports of Thermo Fisher's interest in buying the company. They closed at $94.41 on the New York Stock Exchange on Friday.

Guggenheim Securities and Perella Weinberg Partners advised Merck in the transaction, and Goldman Sachs & Co advised Millipore.

1)Build a foundation. It’s important to build a solid foundation for your employees so they feel invested in the company. Tell them about the history of the business and your vision for the future. Ask them about their expectations and career goals, as well as how you can help them feel part of the team. When any new employee starts, make sure he or she receives a thorough welcome orientation.
2)Create a positive environment. Promote an office atmosphere that makes all employees feel worthwhile and important. Don’t play favorites with your staff. Keep office doors open and let folks know they can always approach you with questions or concerns. A happy office is a productive office.
3)Put people on the right path. Most employees are looking for advancement opportunities within their own company. Work with each of them to develop a career growth plan that takes into consideration both their current skills and future goals. If employees become excited about what’s down the road, they will become more engaged in their present work.

Can You Be Successful Without a Website?

I don't think there's any question that you need a web presence to survive in today's business climate. But do you still need a traditional website, or has the web moved on in that regard?

Do you still need a website to be succesful online? Share your thoughts.

First off, let me be perfectly clear in that I'm not advising anybody not to have a website. That said, there are a lot of ways to have a web presence without actually having a site, and let's face it - maintaining a site (let alone a successful one) takes time, money, and resources.

According to data from Compete, Facebook has become a bigger traffic source than Google for some sites, and for many others, it is right up there with Google as a major traffic source. If it can drive the traffic, then that means the people are already at Facebook. You can be on Facebook without having your own website. Businesses can build a Facebook Page, complete with analytics provided by Facebook itself, and they can spend time making that page a good one. Here are some tips on how to do that. Facebook pages are perfectly capable of being found in search engines. In fact, they are often right on the first results page.

You know what else is often right on the first page? A set of local search results from Google Maps, courtesy of Google's Universal Search integration. Within those results (which are very often right at the top of the SERP) are links to individual businesses' "Place Pages". From here, users can find coupons, reviews, store hours, etc. There is a very good chance users will find this before they find your site anyway.



Google is actually going to great lengths to get people using these Place Pages. They are even sending out stickers with barcodes for stores to hang on their windows. When a user scans this barcode with their mobile phone, they will be taken to the business' Place Page. Social media profiles can also appear on these pages (although so can website links of course).

I probably don't have to tell you that the web is rapidly becoming more mobile. Smartphone usage and mobile broadband subscriptions continue to accelerate, and people are using a variety of devices, operating systems, browsers, and apps. Making sure you have a site that looks right across all of these is no easy task. This is not so much of a worry when it comes to Facebook pages, Google Place Pages, and other third-party entities.

In many cases, it seems that small business sites are becoming harder to find through organic search. If you look you can find them, but users want convenience, and they are probably not going to look too hard if they can find what they are looking for on the first search results page (or right within Facebook where they're already spending their time).

Social profiles show in up in search, and often early. The very nature of social media is viral. If one Facebook user becomes a fan of your Facebook page, that user's friends are going to see it. Then, maybe a couple of them also become fans. Then maybe a couple of their friends become fans, and that trend can continue on and on. The more people who become fans, and the more exposure that page gets, the more chance that page has of acquiring links, which of course can lead to better search engine rankings, not to mention a larger presence on Facebook itself, where a large percentage of Internet users are already spending a great deal of their time. Your reputation and following within the social networks themselves may do your profile well in the eyes of Google too.

If you sell things online, there are obviously many different options out there without having to sell from your own site. In fact, even Facebook and e-commerce are on the road to becoming more and more closely attached. People can buy/sell physical goods through Facebook.

A great deal of focus has been placed on Facebook in this article for the simple fact that it is the world's most popular social network. That could all change in time. But that doesn't mean the points would not sill apply to other services. Google is going to be placing a lot of emphasis on Google Buzz this year, and it's going to become integrated with more and more Google products. Currently, Google profiles are kind of the central place for a Buzz presence. Users can include any links they wish right into that profile (Facebook page, Twitter account, blog, eBay/Amazon listings, etc.)There's no telling how big Buzz can be, and there's always the possibility that something else will come along and take the world by storm. And that is one of the reasons...

Why it Still Pays to Have a Site

Can you be successful without a site? I think so. However, having a site gives you a more stable foundation, and still creates more opportunities than if you didn't have one. When you have a site, you have control. You don't have to adhere to the policy guidelines of any third-party platform. If Facebook decides to shut its Pages down (as Yahoo did with GeoCities, for example), you still have your own site that they can't touch. For that matter, having your own site certainly lends credibility to your brand.

Still, social networks continue to work on making data more freely able to flow among one another via a number of open standards like Activity Streams, AtomPub, OAuth, PubSubHubbub, Salmon and WebFinger. "The idea is that someday, any host on the web should be able to implement these open protocols and send messages back and forth in real time with users from any network, without any one company in the middle," says Google software engineer DeWitt Clinton. "The web contains the social graph, the protocols are standard web protocols, the messages can contain whatever crazy stuff people think to put in them. Google Buzz will be just another node (a very good node, I hope) among many peers. Users of any two systems should be able to send updates back and forth, federate comments, share photos, send @replies, etc., without needing Google in the middle and without using a Google-specific protocol or format."

Google itself, even has its own site dedicated to making user data for its various products exportable. That's just Google, but the web in general appears to be moving more in this direction.

I'm not saying that you shouldn't have a site, or even that you don't need one, but I think it's an interesting discussion. For now, I'm going to say having your own site is still in your best interest, but has a more social Internet with more portable data made a standalone site less critical? Is having a website going to be less important in the future? I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on the subject. Comment here.

Main article: Civil law (legal system)


Shamash (the Babylonian sun god) hands King Hammurabi a code of law
Civil law is the most widespread system of law in the world. It is also sometimes known as Continental European law. The central source of law that is recognized as authoritative are codifications in a constitution or statute passed by legislature, to amend a code. Civil law systems mainly derive from the Roman Empire, and more particularly, the Corpus Juris Civilis issued by the Emperor Justinian ca. 529AD. This was an extensive reform of the law in the Byzantine Empire, bringing it together into codified documents. Civil law was also partly influenced by religious laws such as Canon law and Islamic law. Civil law today, in theory, is interpreted rather than developed or made by judges. Only legislative enactments (rather than judicial precedents, as in common law) are considered legally binding.
Scholars of comparative law and economists promoting the legal origins theory usually subdivide civil law into four distinct groups:
French civil law: in France, the Benelux countries, Italy, Spain and former colonies of those countries;
German civil law: in Germany, Austria, Croatia, Switzerland, Greece, Portugal, Turkey, Japan, South Korea and the Republic of China;
Scandinavian civil law: in Denmark, Norway and Sweden. As former colonies, Finland and Iceland inherited the system from their neighbors.
Chinese law is a mixture of civil law and socialist law.
A comprehensive list of countries that base their legal system on a codified civil law follows:]]> Sat, 13 Feb 2010 05:46:47 -0500 92334 http://www.dreamteammoney.com/index.php?showtopic=92333 Legal systems elaborate rights and responsibilities in a variety of ways. A general distinction can be made between civil law jurisdictions, which codify their laws, and common law systems, where judge made law is not consolidated. In some countries, religion still informs the law. Law provides a rich source of scholarly inquiry, into legal history, philosophy, economic analysis or sociology. Law also raises important and complex issues concerning equality, fairness and justice. "In its majestic equality", said the author Anatole France in 1894, "the law forbids rich and poor alike to sleep under bridges, beg in the streets and steal loaves of bread." In a typical democracy, the central institutions for interpreting and creating law are the three main branches of government, namely an impartial judiciary, a democratic legislature, and an accountable executive. To implement and enforce the law and provide services to the public, a government's bureaucracy, the military and police are vital. While all these organs of the state are creatures created and bound by law, an independent legal profession and a vibrant civil society inform and support their progress.]]> Sat, 13 Feb 2010 05:42:26 -0500 92333 http://www.dreamteammoney.com/index.php?showtopic=92324 Commercial advertisers often seek to generate increased consumption of their products or services through branding, which involves the repetition of an image or product name in an effort to associate related qualities with the brand in the minds of consumers. Different types of media can be used to deliver these messages, including traditional media such as newspapers, magazines, television, radio, outdoor or direct mail. Advertising may be placed by an advertising agency on behalf of a company or other organization.
Organizations that spend money on advertising promoting items other than a consumer product or service include political parties, interest groups, religious organizations and governmental agencies. Nonprofit organizations may rely on free modes of persuasion, such as a public service announcement.
Money spent on advertising has declined in recent years. In 2007, spending on advertising was estimated at more than $150 billion in the United States and $385 billion worldwide,and the latter to exceed $450 billion by 2010]]> Sat, 13 Feb 2010 03:20:53 -0500 92324 http://www.dreamteammoney.com/index.php?showtopic=92323

• Translation software
• Communications

Trading partners: These are business organizations that agree to exchange business information, data and documents via EDI. Small, medium and large organizations that are involved in various types of business activities are part of this group. For partners that dare to trade options that are now being made available are endless.

Translation software: This software written in some of the most popular platforms regulates most of the operations. Some of its main features include,
1. It is dual purpose software and it converts files to or from an EDI format called a ‘document’
2. A document is known as an EDI message and the definition specifies the content and sequence of the data to be included
3. In the case of outbound business information, data or documents (we will refer to as document), an internal application file format is translated into an EDI format
4. For inbound documents, the EDI format is translated into an EDI format
5. For inbound documents, the EDI format is retranslated into an internal application file format
6. It is not necessary for trading partners to use the same translation software, nor is it necessary for them to have similar hardware platforms
7. Software and hardware independence is one of the major advantages of EDI

Communications: The transmission and reception of ‘document’ between trading partners using compatible hardware and software, which best suits their requirements.

I am interested in obtaining funds to purchase an almost NNN commercial property which is 90% occupied with leases expiring from 2008 to 2010. The CAP rate is 9.0%. This would be my first commercial investment. I am ready to put 20% down from my personal funds.

I would like to know which state I should establish the LLC as the property I have located is 2000 miles away from my residence and how to approach the financial institutions from that town/state to review my application favourably. My personal credit history is excellent however LLC has no history yet.

Any advice is most welcome.]]> Tue, 09 Feb 2010 06:20:18 -0500 92024 http://www.dreamteammoney.com/index.php?showtopic=91656 hi guys, any suggestions on how to manage finances well especially when bills are flooding every month from mortgage, personal loan, car loans, credit cards, etc. You may have some experience with this dilemma of paying bills.

The best offshore accounts offer its customer an account manager or a human being at the other end, instead of a computerized message. It has a personal touch to its service. This allows it to cater to the individual needs of the customers. The bank can also arrange for a one to one interaction between the customer and the bank executive. The bank uses both modern and traditional methods to communicate with the customers.

Which account to open is also a personal choice of the customer. This depends on the need of the customer. Whether that requirement is for an offshore business account, an offshore personal account, a credit card or medium to long term investment product, one need to ensure that the offshore bank can fulfill that requirement. Once the customer has narrowed his or her selection of offshore bank, one needs to ensure which products and accounts they have to fulfill requirements. The customer can finalize the selection based on which bank offers one exactly what you require.
