			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Life is very unpredictable especially death. You will never know when it will arrive and you will never know what will happen after it. But you need to bear in mind that you are the one to choose if you want to do something about it.<br />
You can be prepared if you want to. You can still provide a secured life to your family if you choose to. Being insured is the best way to be sure of life after death. And it is what can save your family from hardships while you are gone.<span id="more-687"></span><br />
There are two ways to get the insurance you need. The first one is to go to the offices and seek for the agent to sell you one. It is a good thing to talk to someone to explain the details of the insurance in person but there are also its down sides. Always be firm with your decision and know what you really need.<br />
The second method of getting <a title="Term Life Insurance Rates" href="http://www.lifeinsurancegroup.com/term-life-insurance.php" target="_blank"><strong>term life insurance rates</strong></a> is by searching for it on the Web. This is a process where it can be convenient as well as faster. You don’t have to do chitchats with an agent but just see how life insurance works. You can get to know the types as well as the different kinds of companies. This is the best way because you get to decide on your own.</p>
<p>You will have an idea of what will happen once you already have the insurance as well as tell the insurance provider of what you would want to have. Remember that the best way to get your exact specifications is by knowing what to require.</p>
<p>Your research will have a big effect on what you will receive. Get to know all about the world of security and see how it will affect your life in the future.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">As the holidays approach, there will be a greater increase in the number of DUI arrests made throughout the country and California is no exception. At the end of many office party or other holiday gathers, some folks will find themselves debating whether or not they should get behind the wheel of a car. First and foremost, if you’re near anyone who is having that debate, end the discussion by calling them a cab or taking them home yourself. In other words, if you have ask someone if they are safe to drive, they probably aren’t. On the other hand, you might also find yourself in the position when you own driving skills have become impaired. If you find yourself in the unfortunate situation of a drunk driving arrest, the best course of action would be to secure the services of an <a href="http://parkerlawcenter.com/orange-county-dui-attorney">Orange County DUI attorney</a> or a Santa Ana DUI attorney. You don’t want to face a DUI charge by yourself.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The first thing you should know about California DUI laws is that like most of the nation, the legal definition of driving drunk means you will have a blood alcohol content or BAC greater than .08. It’s hard to say just how many drinks it takes for a person to have a .08 BAC or higher because each person metabolizes alcohol differently. Rest assured that no judge will accept the excuse that you know better when it comes to how many drinks you can “handle.”<span id="more-662"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As a qualified Orange County DUI attorney or Santa Ana DUI attorney will tell you, California treats DUI offenses very seriously. Anyone who is found guilty of a DUI charge can be facing an uphill battle of some very serious consequences. For instance, even with a single DUI guilty charge, you’ll be required to adjust your auto insurance to carry a SR22 restricted driver policy. The SR22 insurance riders will instantly cause your insurance premiums to skyrocket. Not to mention the fact that you will also be subjected to follow-up inspections and courses in alcohol abuse.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Then there is the issue of jail time. In California, a first time DUI offense can land you in jail for up to six months. Think about that for a moment? That extra drink you had before leaving your office Christmas party could actually mean going to jail for six months. This is why you need to have a qualified Orange County DUI attorney or Santa Ana DUI attorney representing you in any of these matters. The jail time is not automatic. It only occurs with a conviction.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">You should also know that repeat DUI offenders are not looked upon favorably by the courts. Although you might think you can skate by a first time offense by paying a fine and taking some classes, with a second or third DUI conviction you might just be facing some mandatory jail time along with adding ignition devices to your car which won’t let you start the engine unless you blow a BAC lower than .08. That’s going to be a major hassle and that’s exactly why you need an experienced Orange County DUI attorney or Santa Ana DUI attorney on your case.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Do you ever feel that:  Your time is in charge of you? Someone else is in charge of what you do? You are only working for the money? You are looking forward to retirement?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I’m sure most of us can relate to this at some level.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">At Your Success Resources, they define <a href="http://www.yoursuccessresources.com/2011/10/18/what-is-financial-freedom-3/">financial freedom</a> as &#8220;Having access to enough resources so you can do what you truly want.&#8221;  Or in other words, no longer being a slave to money.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">So what&#8217;s the secret to financial success and financial freedom?<span id="more-644"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>The Secret to Success</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The vast majority of us have been sold the following plan:</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">- Work hard at school to get good grades</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">- Find a well paid and secure job or career</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">- Buy the best house (and hopefully luxuries) we can afford</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">- Save money and retire on a pension</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If we analyse this from a financial perspective, the first thing to notice is that we pay taxes before we even get our pay check!  In addition, although pensions are considered tax efficient, these are also taxed as soon as they come into payment.  Conclusion &#8211; the government get first dibs on our money.  The second thing we notice is that the banks have first charge on our houses and we are also often obligated to them via loans and credit card debts.   The banks have second dibs on our money and assert control (via repossession or bad credit) to ensure they get paid.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Note that with the above model, the people in control of your money (ie the government and the banks) are also in control of your time.   Therefore if you work in a job and exchange your time for money you are really working largely for the government and the banks.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The secret to getting financial control back into our lives is to understand that the government and the banks love this plan we have been sold because we pay lots of taxes and get into lots of debt.  In other words the system works just fine as long as you are spending your time bringing in a regular income.  The bank and the government will not help you get out of debt &#8211; you must change your relationship to debt yourself.   It is not in the bank&#8217;s interest for you to get out of debt until you are old and can no longer work for them.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Good and bad credit</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Robert Kiyosaki&#8217;s book &#8220;Rich Dad, Poor Dad&#8221; explains the simple difference between good and bad credit (or good and bad debt) in the following terms:</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">- Good credit is debt that helps makes you money every month</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">- Bad credit is debt that costs you money every month</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Bad credit is created through purchasing things that don&#8217;t make you any money.  Good credit is using other people&#8217;s money to make you money.  In other words, good credit moves us towards financial freedom and success and bad credit moves us away.<br />
What is the key to financial freedom?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The key to the game of freedom is to play it your way and not become a slave to the government or the banks with your time.  Primarily this means developing income streams which pay you when you’re not even there (also called <a href="http://www.yoursuccessresources.com/2011/10/20/passive-income%E2%80%A6e-such-a-thing/">passive income</a>).  This can be simply achieved through strategies like investing, trading, internet marketing or network marketing (MLM).<br />
Conclusion<br />
It’s not your boss that you need to tackle first if you want to become financially free its your relationship with money and what you do with your time.  If you use your time and access to credit wisely you can, like millions of others before you propel yourself to financial freedom within a few short years.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">The average consumers make some common financial mistakes that lead them towards debt. The US consumers can’t exercise financial discipline so they often get into the trap of debt. Therefore, it is crucial to inculcate a good spending habit so that you can prevent financial problems in future. A bad spending habit is considered to be the most common financial mistake that people commit. Therefore, if you sincerely and responsibly manage your finances then you can avoid making financial mistakes.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Here are the 4 common financial mistakes that you need to be aware of in order to secure your financial future:</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>1. Expenses exceed income:</strong><br />
When your expenses exceed your income then your situation can completely lead you to debt. This can be a serious issue when you don’t have control over your financial situation. This is a financial mistake that is quite common among the consumers in the US. Therefore, inculcate a good spending habit so that you can avoid getting into debt. Try to understand you reason behind the problem so that you can take prompt action and solve the problem.<span id="more-566"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>2. Reckless expenses:</strong><br />
Most people indulge into reckless expenses and end up spending huge amount of money unnecessarily. It will be a wrong decision if you buy things impulsively as you might not be able to afford to pay off. Therefore, it is advisable that if you do not have extra money to spend then avoid getting things that are beyond your reach. It will be a wise decision to think and then make a purchase but many people make some common mistakes of indulging into extravagance.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>3. No emergency fund:</strong><br />
Consumers who are struggling to come out of debt did not have an emergency fund to use it during financial crisis. It is advisable to open a savings account and deposit a portion of your income in it. Your emergency fund can help you manage your urgent financial crisis and prevent you from borrowing in future. But still people did not care to create an emergency fund despite knowing the importance of it.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>4. Tax error:</strong><br />
When it comes to taxes people generally make huge mistake in this area. They might suffer a financial crisis due to large number of withheld. But there are few people who might not have too much withheld but incur overwhelming debt that they are unable to pay back. They might have mistakes on the form, only took few deductions or did not utilize the benefit that lead to debt.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you’re starting a website to make money on the internet one of the most important aspects you will have to understand is how Google works. This is because Google can be one of the most profitable sources of traffic for your website. As I see it there are two main parts of the Google algorithm:</p>
<p>• Relevancy<br />
• Authority</p>
<p>Yes Google likes to remind us continually about the 100 different ranking factors that go into every search result but in my opinion it really comes down to these 2 components.  When you think about it makes sense right? There is no point in returning a site to the user if it has lots of authority but has nothing to do with the key phrase. Then at the other end of the scale you have millions of sites that are all relevant (they have that phrase on the page) but website 1 could be as relevant as 100,0001, it’s just text.<span id="more-449"></span></p>
<p>So Google decided that in order to give anything meaningful back to the user there had to be a relationship between relevancy and authority in every search. It’s not always a 50/50 split though, sometimes one is more important than the other, however remember that one can’t exist without the other.<br />
So what does this all mean and why does it matter to you? Well the thing is unless you’re trying to compete in some crazy market like personal loans or tablets that help with “blood flow” it’s unlikely that the sites are maxing out their full potential for both of these factors. So since we can’t phone up Google and ask (they have blocked my calls) how can we tell what the ratio is on a search?</p>
<p>Relevancy is somewhat easier to gauge as most of it comes down to the content on the page. For instance if you do a niche search were Amazon is listed and they have one page on the key-phrase with just a bunch of manufacturer supplied duplicate text. So are they there because of relevancy or authority? We can also look at some basic on page seo to help too. So if they don’t have the phrase in the title tag that’s another clue relevancy isn’t a big factor. Are they linking internally to this page with optimized anchor text? Are there other pages on this site which are relevant too? Or is this single page a one hit wonder?</p>
<p>At the other end of the scale we have a site that is super relevant but not high authority. So when you see a site like billy-bobs ecommerce store ranking ahead of Amazon it’s always because of relevance (no-one is going to beat Amazon on authority). What you will often find in Billy-bobs site is that he has created more than just a page about this topic, indeed he could have hundreds of pages on all aspects of this key-phrase. We know that Google has gotten very good at sniffing out related content so it makes sense that it looks at the site as a whole to work out how relevant it is (and not just the page they are listing).</p>
<p>So what does all this mean to you the next time you’re weighing up the competition in a niche? Well for a start relevancy is much easier to manufacture than authority since quality links (the main component of authority) take time and money to create. Creating content can be hard work too but we can all do it, if you sit down and create 100 new quality posts for your blog it will be a huge boost to both your overall relevance and your ability to grab long tail traffic. So the key to making some quick (and maybe easy) money from the search results is to find listings were Google has these default generic big sites in the results and provide them with something 100 times more relevant.</p>
<p>So is that all there is too it? Of course not but I do believe many of today’s marketers are going round in circles trying to work out what Google is doing on a day to day basis, it’s impossible and unnecessary. The basics multiplied are what it’s always been about and if you can find a way to multiply those basics quickly and efficiently then maybe I’ll be trying to work out what you’re doing right next time I’m looking at the results!

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wondering why in spite of grants, <a href="http://monsterhols.com/bankruptcy/declaring-bankruptcy-to-eliminate-a-college-student-loan.html">student loans</a> or scholarship you still find it difficult to manage your college expenses. Are you getting tensed thinking about your future savings as well? If yes then please stop worrying any more. There are plenty of scopes to manage your finances well in the student life. Keep your eyes open to all those opportunities. Learn to Use few super smart ways to save money in your super expensive college days.</p>
<p>1. Stop      buying text books from campus bookstore. They are mostly overpriced. Find      some willing seniors who would like give away their books that they don’t      need anymore. These books come within minimal cost or sometimes even free.      You can take your professor’s help in this regard or you can search      through your social networking site and university bulletin board. You can      get lucky with e-bay as well.<span id="more-369"></span></p>
<p>2. Food      is pretty expensive in college days. Don’t fall in the trap of university      meal plan. Students should try to collect coupons and follow sales at      grocery stores. Buying in bulk is always useful in this regard. Shop      around to find the best at the cheapest rate. Check whether your shopping      list includes things for everyday meals like ramen noodles, yogurt, peanut      butter, or oatmeal. While eating out share the bills with your fellow      students and friends if possible.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Written by Dave Young, President of Paragon Wealth Management</p>
<p>You may be surprised to hear that one household in 50 declare bankruptcy a year. On average, when a widow receives a death benefit, it is usually completely gone within three years. Credit card debt is at an all time high. Payday loan centers charging effective interest rates up to 500% are thriving. Gambling is epidemic. In the richest country in the world, millions of Americans are experiencing major financial problems.<br />
<span id="more-297"></span><br />
What is the solution to this problem? Make more money?</p>
<p>Most people think that the only way to solve these problems is to make more money so they have more money to spend. In reality, that might help their situation, but it isn’t the solution.</p>
<p>It may sound like obvious advice to spend less than you earn, but it is often ignored. According to an article in Smart Money, Americans collectively spent more than they earned after taxes for the past two years in a row. This bad habit afflicts people at all income levels– those with less may feel as if the extra expenses are necessary evil, while those with more may assume their high income protects them from any future financial trouble. This mentality must be changed in order to build wealth over time and save money.</p>
<p>I’ve personally met individuals who earn $40,000 a year but save $5,000 of that for the future. Although it may seem like a small annual amount, that money adds up to future wealth and security. In contrast, I have met others who earn $200,000 a year and spend $220,000. This is a quick way to destroy yourself financially. While it may sounds simplistic, in order to build wealth you must spend less than you earn.</p>
<p>Politicians talk about change… beauty contest contestants talk about world peace… all great ideas, but not practical unless they have a disciplined plan.</p>
<p>The solution that provides the structure or the disciplined plan to help you meet your financial goals is:</p>
<p>First, understand your personal numbers (the money you need on a regular basis) and write down a plan to spend less than you earn by making a budget.</p>
<p>Usually when you mention a written “budget “people often start to groan. They don’t like budgets because they take effort and force you to decide what is a real NEED and what is a WANT.</p>
<p>A budget is the cornerstone of any financial plan. It brings control to the “numbers”. It also takes your numbers out of the “world peace” type of plan and provides some substance and a road map to meet your goals. Budgeting can benefit both frugal people and spendthrift types.</p>
<p>A budget encourages frugal people to balance their spending. It helps them see they can spend money on things like entertainment when they normally wouldn’t have spent the money. It also helps spendthrift people balance their spending so they buy things they need first and then have money to spend on additional items. Budgets help them keep their spending under control so they don’t spend more than they make.</p>
<p>Six Steps to making a budget:</p>
<p>If you are married, include your spouse.<br />
IMake a list of all income.<br />
IMake a list of all expenses from the previous month<br />
IDetermine your needs versus wants. Sometimes we may think we need something, like a new ski boat, when we actually don’t. We would like one, but we don’t need one at that time. Instead, a need may be something like groceries. You definitely need groceries on a regular basis. We will discuss this topic further next week in another post.<br />
IStructure your budget so that you are paying yourself first, i.e. paying towards your savings or debt reduction, and your bills second. It is important to put money towards your savings or debts first and then set your budget. If this is done in reverse, your savings and debt usually don’t get paid.<br />
Determine if your goals are realistic<br />
Second, start setting financial goals after you have set your budget to determine your spending needs.</p>
<p>I suggest setting three goals. First, set two financial goals that you want to meet in five years from now. Second, set two financial goals that you want to meet three years from now. Third, set two <a href="http://www.personalfinanceology.com/">financial goals</a> that you want to meet by the end of 2010.</p>
<p>Last, exercise patience and evaluate your progress month to month.</p>
<p>Overall, with anything in life, it takes patience, self-control, patience and more patience to actually start accomplishing your goals. Over time, as you continue to use your budget and stay on track with your goals, you will see results.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At some point or another, we all experience the helpless feeling of being physically lost. Whether it’s traveling, hiking, starting a new school or job, the fear is still the same. When we are not paying attention it is very easy to lose our sense of direction. The same holds true with our <a href="http://www.moneyalps.com/">personal finance</a>. If we allow ourselves to become distracted we can find ourselves in the same helpless and scary situation. Financial goals are like the signs or markers along the way that keep us on track and prevent us from getting lost. Setting financial goals helps put our current financial situation in perspective.<br />
<span id="more-79"></span><br />
As individuals and as couples, identifying your finance goals early is important. For example, you may want to take and elaborate European vacation when your children leave home. However, if you don’t prepare now you will most certainly miss out on the dream. With goals in place, you are less likely to be tempted to spend your money on something you don’t need. As you identify and review your finance goals, remember to include your significant other because it takes a team effort.</p>
<p>Here are a few questions to ask yourself as you establish your finance goals:</p>
<p>* What hobbies do I have or would I like to pursue?<br />
* Is education important to me or my family members? What preparation should I be making to ensure we receive a good education?<br />
* Do I own a home or would I like to? What do I need to do to buy a home or pay it off?<br />
* What are my career goals? What planning or training should I be engaged in?<br />
* Is charity or church important to me and what type of contributions do I make to them?<br />
* Are there specific character traits that I am trying to develop in myself or children? Do my spending habits conflict with these?<br />
* When do I plan to retire? How am I going to be financially ready before that time?<br />
* With the state of health care, will I be prepared for the future?<br />
* How much consumer debt do I have if any? What am I doing to eliminate that debt?<br />
* Will my spending today bring me regret later in life?</p>
<p>As you ask yourself these questions, write down your goals and prioritize them. This will help solidify and keep them in your mind. Work towards each of your finance goals every month and as you do so, you will find yourself happier and better prepared for the future. Don’t allow yourself to become financially lost by setting short and long term goals today.</p>
