Comparison of silver and gold


Historical facts
In the past, gold and silver are considered a symbol of wealth and power of the king. The more gold and silver owned by the king, the higher the position of the king in the eyes of the people and the other kingdom. Gold and silver are commonly used as currency, jewelry and even used the throne as a symbol of greatness. But there are differences between them. Gold is more valuable and have a high position in terms of social status in the community owner. This view is further maintained for many years until now.

The availability of abundant silver
In nature availability of silver is more than gold. So that gold became scarcer and the selling price even higher. In other words, the more limited availability, gold becomes more exclusive than the silver. This is an effect on the price of gold and silver.

Academic assessment
In some states a lot of scientific work associated with the ratio of the value of gold and silver. And of course the value of gold is higher than the silver. In some poems also often use gold and silver as the ratio between the two different things.

In the case of medals, gold, silver, placed under
In a tournament, gold has always given to the first winner, while the silver for the second. gold value was more dominant than the silver.

But in the next few years it may have its turn. As in my previous posting

Choosing Business Location

In a business, location is a very important role in achieving success. Especially in the retail business. Before determining the location of the retail business there are some things you need to note that later can be a consideration in determining the location of your retail business. Consider the following questions:
1. Who are your customers?
2. How do you visualize your building?
3. Do you know what you want to sell and what the benefits of your business?
4. Area where your retail, storage, office, or the size you need?
If you do not know the answers to these questions, it will be difficult for you to find that perfect location to produce the maximum profit for your retail store.
Commodity
Identify what type of product you sell, because some products will require certain types of locations. You need to know whether you should consider a shop, store or shop the special shopping.
1. Comfort items require easy access, allowing customers to make quick purchases. A mall would not be a good location for convenience goods. These products are low price and bought by many customers.
2. Specialty goods are more unique than most products and customers generally will not mind traveling out of the way to purchase the product. A specialty shops can also do well near other shopping stores.
3. A shopping stores typically sell at higher prices are often carried by the customer. Furniture, cars and clothing are examples of high-end products found in a store shopping. Because prices of goods, customers usually want to compare prices before making a purchase. Therefore, retailers would do well to find their shop in similar stores.
Population and Your Customers
Regional research carefully before making a final decision. Read local newspapers and talking with other small businesses in the area. Get the demographic location of the local library, trade room from the Census Bureau. These resources will give you information about, income and age of local residents. If you know who your target market, make sure you find the location where they live, work and shop.

Accessibility, Visibility and Traffic
An area with a lot of traffic does not mean that it will also generate a lot of customers. Retailers want to be placed where there are many buyers but only if the purchaser meets the definition of their target market. small retail stores to take advantage of the traffic near the larger stores.
1. How many people walk or take a train through the site?
2. Is the area served by public transport?
3. Can customers and delivery trucks easily in and out of the parking lot?
4. Is there adequate parking?
Depending on your type of business, it is wise to have somewhere between 5 and 8 parking spaces at 1,000 square feet of retail space.
Signage, Zoning and Planning
Before signing the lease, make sure you understand all the laws, policies and procedures relating to the location of your grocery store. Contact the local city hall and the commission zones for information about the regulations regarding signage. Ask about any restrictions that may affect your retail operations and future plans that could change the traffic, such as road construction.
Competition and Neighbors
Other business areas in the candidate location you really can help or hurt your grocery store. Determins if your type of business that is compatible to your store. For example, a high-end fashion boutiques may not be successful in the various discount stores. Place next to the nail salon or hair and may be doing more business.

Business coaches

In each case every one need a teacher. Humans can learn from the seniors, the experience of others, books, or on natural events. Likewise, if you want to succeed in business in a relatively short time then we need teachers. There are several reasons why we need teachers in the business, such as:

1. Coach gives way of looking outside the box

It is impossible for everyone to look at him self. Coach can see what is the weakness of you. Like a chess game, people who see these games can usually be more to see the weaknesses of the players. Thus the coach could give advice to you in taking action


2. To make sure you stay on track

In every business there is usually a short-term plans, medium term and long term. Most of us difficult to continue to follow a predefined plan. Thus the coach can serve as a watchdog that will remind you if you've strayed far from the plan.

3. Coach can be a stabilizer Motivation and Energy

We know that the spirit can rise and fall. By engaging in an intensive program, coaches can work as a voltage stabilizer that stabilizes the spirit, to still have enough energy to the finish line. Coach has the ability for athletes “SPIRIT”, and energetic performing each exercise.

4. Coach Gives clear SUCCESS MAP

Like was driving to a destination, a driver will have difficulty if you do not have a guide, at least there should be a guide map and compass tool. Coach has two functions, namely to give a map / road and in the right direction towards success.

5. Resource brainstorming two-way

Imagine, how good a coach as well as discussing a mutual friend to build. Coach will give positive feedback about all the things that are constructive, and this is very powerful for mental and physical development of athletes. Be a very big opportunity is wide open if this strategic relationship built consistently.

On the sports field to the presence of coaches, even in your business. The competition is going on during the business life, have we as business owners realize the hidden dangers due to not having a business coach?

Make Business Out of Foreclosed Homes

At first glance, the prospect does not seem to spoil for those wishing to start their own business on the side while holding day jobs. It also may seem risky for those who want to jump into the business of selling real estate full time since the hotel was the former.
home for sale
Small-time investors to seek gold in the economy is bad, if you have a financial IQ can help sniff the good from the bad. When the bad economy at the beginning of 1990, Robert Kiyosaki Rich Dad, Poor Dad fame does not go directly to the local real estate office. Instead, he went to the office to find a bankruptcy lawyer in negotiating transactions taken over the house could easily sell it again in 90 days. The reason I chose to households in difficulty is that these properties are often sold at lower prices, about 30 percent less than their market value. All he had was subtle, simple way to finance standards, research, and a lot of guts to back him in his business.
Some smart people tend to keep their jobs and real estate flipping in his spare time. A small transaction is taken over the house to produce a few thousand dollars, and investors after they make the company grow into a full time hobby.
Rentals
How others can make money from seizures is through leasing. A good way to increase personal income from their work day is to have a steady cash flow of small houses can be rented. This is especially attractive to families or individuals who work and still can not commit to buying their own homes because the economy is bad.
When the benefits of the housing market is up, that are rented the same house could be sold, even for twice the price paid by buyers of bad moments. Everything is a matter of time and a good eye for business.
This scheme can be repeated again and again when people take a second look over the house.

Fixed Rate Secured Loans

Some time we need loans from friends, family or financial institutions such as banks. These loans can be for investment purposes, school fees, fees for medical treatment, purchase houses, purchase of vehicles and other financing.

When we decide to use banking services in financing our needs, then one thing of our concern is the bank interest. Each bank offers loans with varied interest rates. Some offer fixed rate and the other offer floating rate. Each offer has its own advantages respectively.

In a system of floating rate bank usually offers low interest in a certain time, for example the first year, and then use the floating system. In this system there is no certainty in interest rates after the fixed rate period ends. When the economy is good and stable condition, usually it is advantageous for the borrower, while in an unstable economic situation this could be a boomerang for the lender.

The system of fixed interest payments due to better ensure the sustainability of debt repayments and interest are not affected by economic conditions. Although the interest rate offered is usually higher than the floating rate system but this is safer for borrowers.

Each option has risks respectively. In addition to the interest system, there is also the sharia system more friendly for the borrower, although not so popular in the community. Every person has the choice of each and all of them back on their personal.
