Rogue Traders

Financial Market is a dream place for all the speculators and gold diggers. Despite all the rules and regulations there are still savvy combinations and dozens of tricky operations that make one person rich at the expense of others. Just as a famous Russian book character Ostap Bender who knew "approximately 400 relatively honest ways of taking money away from people".

Today even if you hide something eventually it will come out. There are too many ways of tracking the financial operations and other activity that might reveal your true intentions. But still who are those Doctors Evil  who couldn't stop and wanted just get more and more.

I searched internet and can't say i found so many examples. Not because there are not so many of them but simply because banks

Who is an Angel Investor?

What a poetic name for a financial term. Does it really have to do anything with Investment Industry? Yes, it does!

Angel Investor is a private investor who gives you money for your business. Usually this is a wealthy person  who can afford investing money in start-ups.

Most of the start-up companies have no budget or limited budget that consists of entrepreneur's savings, loans or any other equity. But this might be not enough to start a company.

Credit Cards That Give Free Money

Why would a bank give you money for free with no crazy interests? Well, they really do so. Just to attract your attention and make you get their card and become their client. Well it's up to them how profitable it is, but i think it is since they still have such offers. 

So when i was choosing my first credit card i found that Bank of America has a Cash Rewards Credit Card which gives you $100 after you in at least 3 months make purchases for $500. Well, great deal! You just use a card in stead of a debit card and then get $100 for being such a good obedient client. That is easy. They also give you cash back on your purchases of goods 1%, groceries 2% and on gas 3%. That is also easy! You just buy stuff that you always buy and you also get some cash back.

Is 3-D Printing worth your attention?

Some of you might have heard already about a strange device that can make miracles and create 3-D items that you can afterwards touch with your own hands. Just 50 years ago people would suggest you are kind of crazy but today it is hard to get surprised. Creativity of the scientists has no limits.

And yes indeed, it has become possible. 3-D Printers can create objects that you designed on a computer with a special software. Once you have an idea and a design you can print anything you want from plastic, ceramic, plaster, stainless steel and in the near future from silver.

Credit Card Trap

At some point in your life you get to know what a credit card is. And it's a happy time because you can spend the money that you actually don't have. And what about paying back? Yeah, sure... some time later. That's what you first think when you get a brand new credit card with your name on it. 

Of course you already have a to-buy list with all the urgent stuff you need to buy right now. This extremely important and necessary 10th kitchen combiner with that cute yellow button or the 20th pair of shoes that will match that gorgeous dress that you are going to buy as well. And you can really buy it, because you have a magic card.

How to be a Career Superhero

Just 20-30 years ago people used to get Bachelor’s Degree only and they were already considered as extremely strong potential job candidates. They got some job in the company and then even when being promoted they stayed within this company and demonstrated their loyalty that in a couple of years  was awarded with some bonuses.

Today getting a bachelor’s degree is not any incredible  achievement as it could be 20 years ago and you wouldn’t  surprise your potential employer by just showing your diploma ( no matter how hard it was for you to earn it). And at the same time it becomes harder and harder to find employees (especially young professionals) who stay in one company for more than 4-5 years.
