| title | 8 Simple Ways to Become a Millionaire! |
| body | 1. Marry a Millionaire People think this is easy and fast, but it isn’t. It’s easier and faster than starting a business, building it up and earning it on your own, but you can’t marry a millionaire overnight. First, you have to target some millionaires. Where do you find them? Luckily, today, with the proliferation of information online, it’s easy and quick. Sugardaddy.org lists the 10 best websites to find a sugar daddy. Many of these sites also host pages for those in search of sugar mamas — no discrimination here. Some of these arrangements are expected to be superficial and temporary, but lots of relationships start out that way. It all depends on your powers of persuasion. That being said, it is understood, of course, that part of your power will lie in your physical beauty. To get a rich person to marry and support you, you must be beautiful. If that involves plastic surgery and a few hours a day at the gym, then consider that an investment in your future. Keep in mind that a lot of millionaires are smart and may ask you to sign a prenup, which is really only fair. In these arrangements, you can only live the lifestyle of the rich and famous as long as you are married to the person and holding up your end of the bargain (eg., no eating chips and donuts, and no cheating with someone young and attractive). 2. Gamble This is most commonly done in the form of buying lottery tickets, and it’s one of the fastest ways to become a millionaire. It’s practically instantaneous — but it isn’t easy. Many people buy extra tickets when a jackpot gets big, thinking that will help their odds of winning. And it does. But by such a small amount, it’s statistically insignificant. Imagine your odds of winning are like blades of grass on a football field. If you get two blades, you double your chances. But they’re still infinitesimal. Some people win big at casinos. But most don’t. Slot machines are popular because everyone loves to see one payout, all those coins spilling out, lights flashing, sound effects. But the odds of winning are low. In fact, the odds of someone winning are high; the odds of it being you are low. If you want to win at gambling, the best thing to do is to play a game with some strategy involved, like blackjack or poker. But you have to be really great at it and win a lot of times to become a millionaire. 3. Invent Something The catch: It has to be something people want. It doesn’t have to be good or useful, it just has to be popular. Remember Cabbage Patch Kids? Take a look at these 25 inventions that made their creators millions of dollars. You can see that some of these concepts were probably conceived by people who stayed up too late thinking outside the box. So that actually may be a step in the process. If so, that would make inventing something one of the best ways to become a millionaire. 4. Invest in a Company That Becomes Successful This is a little like having a 401(k), except on a grander scale. With a 401(k), you choose your level of risk and someone else decides for you what your money will be invested in, and you usually make money, although not often a million dollars. To make a million dollars investing, you have to put a lot into a company so that your returns are big. It’s true you could have made a million dollars buying a few shares of the original AT&T stock, but you would have had to wait a long time — close to a hundred years. You would have had to spend the money on a nursing home. You could research investment opportunities online, you could court smart people with ideas and no money, a la Shark Tank, or you could bankroll your cousin’s empanada truck — the format doesn’t matter; it only matters that they succeed. And that they give you your money. Read more: 13 Side Jobs That Can Earn You At Least $500 This Month 5. Buy Bitcoin I don’t understand what this even is, only that people claim to be getting rich with it. Is it legitimate? No one knows. We don’t know if investing in bitcoin will make you a millionaire, but if it does, it’s as easy as a few mouse clicks. 6. Get Famous It doesn’t matter how or why, for good or bad, most famous people have more money than the average Joe. Are famous people famous because they have money? Sometimes. And this is the paradox — if being famous makes you rich but you can’t get famous without money, how can you ever get there? 7. Save Up CNBC ran a story a couple of years ago about a couple who saved enough money in four years to retire at the age of 43. Sounds impossible, right? It’s important to note that they had always been good savers and at the time they launched their plan already had a ton of money in their 401(k). Also, after analyzing their lifestyle and expenses, they determined they — and their two kids — could live on $24,000 a year. (!) You can always find a story about a family like this in a magazine on the rack at the grocery checkout. They clip coupons and manage to eat on $5 a week, get their clothes from dumpsters and watch TV through their neighbors’ windows for entertainment. Do you really want to become a millionaire this way? Is it worth the pain and indignity? Suppose you launched a reasonable plan in which you saved for 20 years by being careful and eventually amassed a million dollars. What then? Continue to spend judiciously in order to be safe and ration it? Where’s the fun in that? The median household income in the U.S. is $56,516. At this salary, with no raises, you would earn a million dollars in 20 years. But you don’t have the money. Because you needed to live. So a million dollars is not just a number on a piece of paper. It’s freedom and excitement and fun. 8. Work Hard We put this one last because it’s the least fun, and it’s not the easiest way to become a millionaire. The odds of success are greater than playing the lottery, and the return on investment is more satisfying. But it is, of course, hard. And it’s not guaranteed. Billions of people work hard all the time and barely survive. You have to have a good idea and some luck too. But the fact remains that if you have these two things and you don’t work hard, you probably won’t get there. It’s true, sometimes you can get something for nothing. But not usually. And when you do get something for nothing, it’s often just an illusion, or it’s outright bad or dangerous. So beware. And be smart. These are our eight top ways to become a millionaire. We didn’t include anything illegal. Those strategies do sometimes work, but we don’t think they’re worth the risk. -Please Upvote, Share & follow @Valuemation for more content💯 |

"title": "8 Simple Ways to Become a Millionaire!",
"body": "1. Marry a Millionaire\nPeople think this is easy and fast, but it isn’t. It’s easier and faster than starting a business, building it up and earning it on your own, but you can’t marry a millionaire overnight.\n\nFirst, you have to target some millionaires. Where do you find them? Luckily, today, with the proliferation of information online, it’s easy and quick. Sugardaddy.org lists the 10 best websites to find a sugar daddy. Many of these sites also host pages for those in search of sugar mamas — no discrimination here. Some of these arrangements are expected to be superficial and temporary, but lots of relationships start out that way. It all depends on your powers of persuasion.\n\nThat being said, it is understood, of course, that part of your power will lie in your physical beauty. To get a rich person to marry and support you, you must be beautiful. If that involves plastic surgery and a few hours a day at the gym, then consider that an investment in your future. Keep in mind that a lot of millionaires are smart and may ask you to sign a prenup, which is really only fair. In these arrangements, you can only live the lifestyle of the rich and famous as long as you are married to the person and holding up your end of the bargain (eg., no eating chips and donuts, and no cheating with someone young and attractive).\n\n2. Gamble\nThis is most commonly done in the form of buying lottery tickets, and it’s one of the fastest ways to become a millionaire. It’s practically instantaneous — but it isn’t easy. Many people buy extra tickets when a jackpot gets big, thinking that will help their odds of winning. And it does. But by such a small amount, it’s statistically insignificant. Imagine your odds of winning are like blades of grass on a football field. If you get two blades, you double your chances. But they’re still infinitesimal. Some people win big at casinos. But most don’t. Slot machines are popular because everyone loves to see one payout, all those coins spilling out, lights flashing, sound effects. But the odds of winning are low. In fact, the odds of someone winning are high; the odds of it being you are low. If you want to win at gambling, the best thing to do is to play a game with some strategy involved, like blackjack or poker. But you have to be really great at it and win a lot of times to become a millionaire.\n\n3. Invent Something\nThe catch: It has to be something people want. It doesn’t have to be good or useful, it just has to be popular. Remember Cabbage Patch Kids? Take a look at these 25 inventions that made their creators millions of dollars. You can see that some of these concepts were probably conceived by people who stayed up too late thinking outside the box. So that actually may be a step in the process. If so, that would make inventing something one of the best ways to become a millionaire.\n\n4. Invest in a Company That Becomes Successful\nThis is a little like having a 401(k), except on a grander scale. With a 401(k), you choose your level of risk and someone else decides for you what your money will be invested in, and you usually make money, although not often a million dollars. To make a million dollars investing, you have to put a lot into a company so that your returns are big. It’s true you could have made a million dollars buying a few shares of the original AT&T stock, but you would have had to wait a long time — close to a hundred years. You would have had to spend the money on a nursing home.\n\nYou could research investment opportunities online, you could court smart people with ideas and no money, a la Shark Tank, or you could bankroll your cousin’s empanada truck — the format doesn’t matter; it only matters that they succeed. And that they give you your money.\n\nRead more: 13 Side Jobs That Can Earn You At Least $500 This Month\n\n5. Buy Bitcoin\nI don’t understand what this even is, only that people claim to be getting rich with it. Is it legitimate? No one knows. We don’t know if investing in bitcoin will make you a millionaire, but if it does, it’s as easy as a few mouse clicks.\n\n6. Get Famous \nIt doesn’t matter how or why, for good or bad, most famous people have more money than the average Joe. Are famous people famous because they have money? Sometimes. And this is the paradox — if being famous makes you rich but you can’t get famous without money, how can you ever get there?\n\n7. Save Up\nCNBC ran a story a couple of years ago about a couple who saved enough money in four years to retire at the age of 43. Sounds impossible, right?\n\nIt’s important to note that they had always been good savers and at the time they launched their plan already had a ton of money in their 401(k). Also, after analyzing their lifestyle and expenses, they determined they — and their two kids — could live on $24,000 a year. (!)\n\nYou can always find a story about a family like this in a magazine on the rack at the grocery checkout. They clip coupons and manage to eat on $5 a week, get their clothes from dumpsters and watch TV through their neighbors’ windows for entertainment. Do you really want to become a millionaire this way? Is it worth the pain and indignity?\n\nSuppose you launched a reasonable plan in which you saved for 20 years by being careful and eventually amassed a million dollars. What then? Continue to spend judiciously in order to be safe and ration it? Where’s the fun in that?\n\nThe median household income in the U.S. is $56,516. At this salary, with no raises, you would earn a million dollars in 20 years. But you don’t have the money. Because you needed to live. So a million dollars is not just a number on a piece of paper. It’s freedom and excitement and fun.\n\n8. Work Hard\nWe put this one last because it’s the least fun, and it’s not the easiest way to become a millionaire.

| body | Gaining traffic and followers is one of the hardest things to do when your new to Steemit, and at times can be quite discouraging when you don't get the results you want. So here are some tips that will hopefully help you: 1 - Make Connections You need to make connections with people to gain followers! Commenting/upVoting peoples posts, answering questions, replying to comments and following people are all things that WILL gain you followers and attention. Try to interact with people that you have something in common with. 2 - Content Don't expect to grow if you aren't putting any effort into your posts! I spend up to 2 HOURS on each article I write! When comparing to other articles where people aren't trying at all, you can definitely see better results in the better content. Just keep in mind it needs to be content that people actually want to view. It needs to have: Originality Uniqueness Quality 3 - Spam? (Following accounts hoping they'll follow back) Even the most popular Steem accounts are guilty of spam! This one is up to you to decide if it's something you want do because it may be a little unethical but is definitely one of the most effective strategies. Spam doesn't just include following random people, but also is done by replying to many peoples posts asking them to check your blog out. The number one reason why people aren't successful on Steemit is because people give up. If you really want to be successful, don't give up and make sure you love what you're doing! |

| title | Do this before you take action with a new idea💯 |
| body | Here’s the number one problem most entrepreneurs have… ...and why most of them can’t produce enough sales for their business. They fall in love with their ideas. Everyone gets excited over the idea. Everyone loves coming up with new ideas. But the reason why some businesses end up failing...or never become a reality... is because they get stuck on their ideas. They fail to adapt or they fail to recognize this aspect of business… Marketing. Everyone knows marketing is important. But I don’t think most people understand HOW important marketing is. I think it’s one of the most under-appreciated aspects of someone’s business. People love shows like Shark Tank. But now they think business is all about the ideas and raising capital. So here’s what you need to do instead when you have a new idea... Pay attention to this because it might save you a lot of time and money in the future… Before you move on with a new idea… Think about how marketable the idea is. There’s a common term in marketing called CPA (cost per acquisition). It’s how much it costs you to get a customer. And It’s one of the most important numbers to know in your business, if not THE MOST important. You can have the most brilliant idea in the world. BUT if your CPA is greater than what you’re selling the product/service for… Then you’re already dead in the water. There’s zero chance your business survives. So whenever I think of a new idea, I think about how marketable the idea is. A lot of people jump in with both feet before they think about the marketing… And they end up paying for it later. I know a guy who sunk $1 million into building an app before testing it out in the market… I’ll tell you that story another time. Don’t be like that guy. When you brainstorm the idea, brainstorm the marketing too. |

| title | 4 Stocks To Buy Today { August 2019 }💰 |
| body | 1 – Cisco Systems (CSCO) is the dominant player in internet switches and routers, but about 40% of overall sales comes from steady revenue streams in its software and services businesses. Cisco’s $34.6 billion in cash and short-term investments gives it plenty of latitude to raise dividends or make acquisitions. The stock yields 2.5%. In May, the company reported that fiscal third-quarter earnings were 13% above the same period in 2018. And company executives said during a quarterly earnings call that Cisco has slashed its manufacturing in China, reducing potential damage from a trade war between the U.S. and China. 2 – Danaher (DHR) is a health care equipment maker on a hot streak. Shares are up nearly 30% so far in 2019 and trade at 26 times projected year-ahead earnings. And yet, says Mike Bailey, director of research at FBB Capital Partners, the market doesn’t fully appreciate the growth potential stemming from Danaher’s recent mega-acquisition of General Electric’s biopharmaceutical business. The unit is a leading provider of instruments, equipment and software supporting the discovery, development and manufacture of complex, biologic drugs. 3 – Walmart (WMT)… Not many retailers can give Amazon.com a run for its money, but Walmart is giving it a go. Analysts at CFRA bumped up their rating on the stock from “buy” to “strong buy” after the retailer reported boffo first-quarter earnings, including a 37% jump in U.S. e-commerce sales. The retailer also announced plans to introduce free next-day shipping on orders over $35. “We think the offer will help it take e-commerce market share from Amazon,” say CFRA analysts. They see the stock trading at $115 within the next 12 months. 4 – Zoetis (ZTS)… Ahead of the 2020 election, talk of potential Medicare and Medicaid changes, among other things, has spooked many health care investors. But Zoetis, the world’s biggest animal health company, is immune to election-year rhetoric. Every major division of its business, which makes vaccines, medicine and health products for a diverse lineup of livestock and pets, expanded in 2018. Managers at Eaton Vance Worldwide Health Sciences fund like the firm’s predictable revenue and its growing overseas footprint. -Found This Helpful? Please Upvote & Follow @Valuemation For More..💙 |

Analysts at CFRA bumped up their rating on the stock from “buy” to “strong buy” after the retailer reported boffo first-quarter earnings, including a 37% jump in U.S. e-commerce sales. The retailer also announced plans to introduce free next-day shipping on orders over $35. “We think the offer will help it take e-commerce market share from Amazon,” say CFRA analysts. They see the stock trading at $115 within the next 12 months.\n\n\n4 – Zoetis (ZTS)… Ahead of the 2020 election, talk of potential Medicare and Medicaid changes, among other things, has spooked many health care investors. But Zoetis, the world’s biggest animal health company, is immune to election-year rhetoric. Every major division of its business, which makes vaccines, medicine and health products for a diverse lineup of livestock and pets, expanded in 2018. Managers at Eaton Vance Worldwide Health Sciences fund like the firm’s predictable revenue and its growing overseas footprint.\n\n-Found This Helpful?

| title | Here’s The Net Worth Of Every 2020 Presidential Candidate🔎 |
| body | Everyone knows Donald Trump is rich. But how about the 25 people jockeying to replace him as president? Forbes dug into the details—examining financial disclosure statements, scouring local real estate records and calculating pension benefits—to figure out the finances of the 2020 candidates. There were some surprises. Bernie is a millionaire. So is “middle-class Joe” Biden. Elizabeth Warren is richer than both of them, worth an estimated $12 million. But she’s a long way from John Delaney, whose $200 million fortune makes him twice as wealthy as every other Democratic candidate not named Tom Steyer. The hedge fund tycoon, who announced his candidacy in July 2019, is worth an estimated $1.6 billion. Aside from Trump and Steyer, the average net worth is $12.9 million—the same as it was for the 2016 contenders. The median net worth is $2 million. The poorest is Pete Buttigieg, who has an estimated $100,000—or about 0.003% of Trump’s fortune. We reached out to all of the candidates. No one, not even the Democrats who spend the most time bashing Trump for his financial dealings, answered every question. So we ranked the entire field on transparency, assigning scores ranging from 0 (lips sealed) to 5 (full disclosure). In the end, we uncovered the money, regardless of whether the candidates wanted it out in the open. The $5 Billion Field DONALD TRUMP Net worth: $3.1 billion Financial transparency score: 0/5 Money raised (as of June 2019): $124 million The billionaire-in-chief is rich enough to fund his entire presidential campaign by himself. Not that he will. While donors around the country have been pitching in to support his reelection effort, the richest president in American history has donated exactly $0 of his own, according to the latest filings. — TOM STEYER Net worth: $1.6 billion Financial transparency score: 1/5 Money raised: $0 After years of backing other Democrats, the hedge funder is trying his own luck as a candidate. Money won’t be an issue. Steyer founded Farallon Capital in 1986 and turned it into one of the largest hedge fund firms in the country. He stepped back in 2012 to focus on politics and philanthropy, concentrating his early efforts on protecting the environment. That struck some people as odd, given that he had previously invested in the fossil-fuel industry. Oil tycoon Harold Hamm, a prominent Trump supporter, once called Steyer “the world’s biggest hypocrite.” For his part, Steyer said he had a change of heart and divested his old fossil-fuel holdings. JOHN DELANEY Net worth: $200 million Financial transparency score: 2/5 Money raised: $26 million Delaney made a fortune in the business world before serving three terms in Congress. The son of a union electrician, he launched HealthCare Financial Partners, a lender to health care businesses, in 1993. One of his major backers: Tom Steyer, whose hedge fund invested $25 million. Delaney took HealthCare Financial Partners public in 1996 and pocketed $30 million when he sold it three years later to Heller Financial (later rolled into GE Capital). He quickly founded a second company, commercial lender CapitalSource, raising $542 million to launch it—$190 million of it from Steyer’s firm. — MICHAEL BENNET Net worth: $15 million Financial transparency score: 2/5 Money raised: $4 million The Democratic senator got millions working for Republican megadonor Philip Anschutz. After serving in the Justice Department during the Clinton administration, Bennet left Washington in 1997 to join the Anschutz Investment Company. There, he worked on a deal to merge three movie theater chains into Regal Entertainment Group and ultimately joined its board of directors. Today his assets include hedge fund holdings and Colorado real estate. — JOE BIDEN Net worth: $9 million Financial transparency score: 4/5 Money raised: $22 million “Middle-class Joe” is now solidly upper class. The former vice president and his wife, Jill, earned more than $15 million in the two years after they left the White House, cashing in on a multi-book deal with publisher Flatiron. In 2017, they dropped $2.7 million on a 4,800-square-foot pad in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. The next year, they paid off a mortgage on their other home, in Wilmington, Delaware. — KAMALA HARRIS Net worth: $6 million Financial transparency score: 4/5 Money raised: $25 million Senator Harris married lawyer Douglas Emhoff in 2014, creating a California power couple. She brought the clout, and he brought the money. Since then, they have raked in $8.2 million—most of it from Emhoff’s work at law firms Venable and DLA Piper. The couple owns homes in Los Angeles, Washington, D.C. and San Francisco, worth a combined $5.8 million before debt. portfolio, which includes more than $15,000 of Apple stock and at least $100,000 in Amazon shares. — BETO O'ROURKE Net worth: $4 million Financial transparency score: 3/5 Money raised: $14 million The former Texas congressman married into a rich family—his wife, Amy, is the daughter of an El Paso real estate tycoon—but only a small chunk of that wealth has trickled down to the couple. Their largest asset is a note held by Amy, worth $2.5 million, according to a campaign spokesperson. Beto holds a minority interest in a $2.5 million El Paso strip mall, which he got from his mother. BILL DE BLASIO Net worth: $2.5 million Financial transparency score: 3/5 Money raised: $1 million Mayor Bill de Blasio has spent most of his life in public service, but like the Oval Office occupant he hopes to replace, he owes his fortune to timely investments in New York City real estate. In 2000 de Blasio, who held a handful of city and federal jobs before being elected mayor, and his wife bought a 1,200-square-foot row house on a quiet Brooklyn block. Four years later, they picked up a 1,600-square-footer just down the road. Since then, real estate values have skyrocketed. Last year de Blasio collected $108,450 by renting out the two properties while he and his family live in Gracie Mansion, the mayor’s official residence. — BERNIE SANDERS Net worth: $2.5 million Financial transparency score: 4/5 Money raised: $46 million Turns out, the socialist senator is a pretty successful capitalist. After running for president in 2016, Sanders inked three lucrative book deals that have brought him more than $2 million so far, catapulting him into the 1%. Since the 2016 election, he has shelled out $575,000 for a northern Vermont summer home and paid off a 30-year mortgage on his Burlington, Vermont, house—25 years early. JAY INSLEE Net worth: $2 million Financial transparency score: 4/5 Money raised: $5 million Since 1988, Inslee has bounced back and forth between the Washington state government (serving as a legislator and now governor) and the federal government (representing Washington’s 4th district, then its 1st district). That’s made him eligible for an estimated $68,000 per year for life in state and federal pensions, an income stream worth around $750,000 in all. He owns a five-bedroom, $1 million home outside Seattle. AMY KLOBUCHAR Net worth: $2 million Financial transparency score: 4/5 Money raised: $13 million A prosecutor turned politician, Klobuchar holds a plain-vanilla portfolio. Her retirement holdings include a federal pension worth an estimated $560,000, the result of 12 years in the U.S. senate. — CORY BOOKER Net worth: $1.5 million Financial transparency score: 4/5 Money raised: $12 million When the New Jersey senator arrived in Washington in 2013, he owned stock in companies like Netflix, Facebook and Amazon. He sold all of that within a year of taking office, putting the proceeds into checking and savings accounts. Today Booker’s portfolio includes a 2,800-square-foot house in Newark, where he served as mayor from 2006 to 2013, and a New Jersey state pension. His federal tax returns show average annual giving of 11%, higher than any of the other 14 candidates who have released their filings. STEVE BULLOCK Net worth: $1.5 million Financial transparency score: 3/5 Money raised: $2 million The governor of Montana is a small-time landlord. He owns 50% of a historic building in Helena, Montana, where he rents out two commercial spaces and one residential apartment. It’s in a convenient location for Bullock, just a mile down the road from his office at the state capitol. His stake is worth roughly $300,000 after debt. The rest of Bullock’s portfolio is mostly composed of retirement accounts. — MARIANNE WILLIAMSON Net worth: $1.5 million Financial transparency score: 3/5 Money raised: $3 million Williamson made millions as a self-help guru and author (with books like the 1992 bestseller A Return To Love), but she hasn’t held onto most of the money. What she does have sits in mutual funds, money market accounts and cash accounts, along with a handful of publicly traded stocks like Apple, Home Depot and VF Corp. While Williamson is not likely to win the election, she’ll almost certainly make money off her campaign: In April, she released her latest book, A Politics of Love. KIRSTEN GILLIBRAND Net worth: $1 million Financial transparency score: 3/5 Money raised: $15 million Gillibrand owns a $350,000 home in Troy, New York, with her husband, Jonathan. She’s the breadwinner, earning $174,000 annually for serving in the senate. He made just $185,000 as a consultant and investor between 2007 and 2018, according to tax returns. Their most valuable asset appears to be Gillibrand’s federal pension, worth an estimated $450,000. — SETH MOULTON Net worth: $1 million Financial transparency score: 2/5 Money raised: $2 million Moulton got a physics degree from Harvard, then joined the Marine Corps and served four tours in Iraq. Back Stateside, he used the G.I. Bill to get master's degrees from Harvard’s public policy and business schools, before running for Congress. His $1 million fortune is largely spread among mutual funds, index funds and a 2,750-square-foot condo in Salem, Massachusetts. ANDREW YANG Net worth: $1 million Financial transparency score: 2/5 Money raised: $5 million The son of Taiwanese immigrants, Yang left a corporate law gig to go into the startup world. In 2000 he cofounded Stargiving.com, a website that gave charitable donors the chance to meet celebrities. After it folded he went to work for small mobile software and healthcare companies, then became CEO of test prep business Manhattan Prep in 2006. Yang helped grow the company to $11 million in revenues before industry giant Kaplan bought it in 2009 for tens of millions. — JULIAN CASTRO Net worth: $700,000 Financial transparency score: 2/5 Money raised: $4 million Barack Obama’s former secretary of housing and urban development has more than $100,000 in cash accounts, plus stock in a handful of mutual funds. After Obama left office, Castro joined the faculty of the University of Texas’ school of public affairs. His $40,000-per-year university pension is worth about $110,000. He also owns a modest, 2,000-square-foot home in San Antonio, where he served as mayor from 2009 to 2014. TULSI GABBARD Net worth: $500,000 Financial transparency score: 2/5 Money raised: $6 million Gabbard invested in the cryptocurrency craze in 2017, buying between $2,000 and $30,000 worth of Litecoin and Ethereum, according to documents she filed with the government. By the time she turned in her most recent financial disclosure report, in July 2019, she had gotten rid of those investments. It’s not clear if she made money on them. Most of her fortune is tied up in an $865,000 home in Washington, D.C., which has an estimated $560,000 in debt against it. — TIM RYAN Net worth: $500,000 Financial transparency score: 3/5 Money raised: $900,000 Elected to the House of Representatives at 29 years old, Ryan has been earning a congressional salary for years. After getting a law degree in 2000, he briefly served in the Ohio state senate, then won his House seat in 2002. In 2013, Ryan married a public school teacher, who is still paying off her student loans, according to his most recent financial disclosure report. — PETE BUTTIGIEG Net worth: $100,000 Financial transparency score: 4/5 Money raised: $32 million Mayor Pete has enough money to live comfortably in the Midwest, but he’s still the poorest 2020 contender. Chalk that up to his age (at 37, he’s the youngest candidate), student loan debt and his decision to give up a lucrative McKinsey job to run for treasurer of his home state of Indiana in 2010. He lost but got a six-figure gig as mayor of South Bend two years later. Still, he and his husband, Chasten, a former teacher, disclosed between $100,000 and $230,000 in student loans. |

| title | How soft are you? The Spartans' 8 Rules For Training Children |
| body | Ask Yourself... So my question to you is, "How soft are you?" When's the last time you went a day without eating, went camping and slept on the hard ground, or sat down and read a business book without getting up, went a month without going out to eat, did 100 pushups, or walked to get groceries instead of taking the car? An Amish old farmer once told me, "Tai there are 3 types of people in the world. People who make things happen; people who watch things happen; and people who WONDER what happened." If you are wondering what happened to your dreams there is a simple answer. Toughen Up... I learned how tought you need to be when I lived for 4 months in New Zealand. I learned to shear sheep to pay for my trip. If the sheep shearers ever heard me complain about the 12 days they would look at me and say, "Harden up mate." That's the simple answer. We are all too soft these days. Modern convenience is great but it comes at an expense. The expense of weakening our will to create, to survive, to build, to dream. The world is on a fast path to reaping the results of luxury gone wild: 50% diabetics, 60% obesity, and 20% of people on depression medication... And I will tell you why. It's because of the media. They are trying to SELL you something. They sell us convenience in the form of big Macs and stupid music and cheap clothes with fancy labels on them because they want your money. It's the wealthy using capital to prey on our basic instincts to seek the easy way out. So they build big companies that make frozen dinners and big gulp sodas to fill their pockets at our expense. The Rule Of The Sucker... Remember this, "When you are in a room and you don't know who the sucker is, YOU are the sucker." You never want to be the sucker. Stop being the sucker. You should WANT life to be a little hard. Like Tom Hanks says, "...The hard is what makes it great." The world doesn't need 50,000 more Paris Hilton/Kim Kardashian's running after the newest Louboutin high heels. It needs 300 Spartans. Spartans embraced being stoics. I was reading about how the Spartans trained their children: "the students... were fed just the right amount for them never to become sluggish through being too full, while also giving them a taste of what it is not to have enough." Compare that to our schools where we fill up the cafeteria with sugar, fat, salt, and soda. Spartan Rules... The Spartans had 8 rules for training their children: 1. Spartans had to prove their fitness even as children. 2. Spartan children were placed in a military-style education program. 3. Fighting was encouraged among Spartan children. 4. Spartans were expected to be lifelong soldiers. 5. Spartan youths were ritualistically tested. 6. Food was intentionally kept scarce, and poor fitness was cause for ridicule. 7. Spartan men were not allowed to live with their wives until age 30. 8. Surrender in battle was the ultimate disgrace. Sounds crazy? Yes. Not something I would recommend in our day and age. But there is a valuable lesson here. As Shakespeare said, "Let me embrace thee, sour adversity, for wise men say it is the wisest course." Forget Drake and Lil' Wayne. They are trying to sell you something. Yolo - You Only Live Once - is for suckers. There is a balance. You must find the balance. Maybe it's one part convenience, two parts challenge. Or maybe you are a little softer. Start out three parts convenience, two part challenge. Whatever balance you choose, choose a little more 'toughening up.' Take a cold shower, take the stairs not the elevator, lift something heavy, run around the block, turn off the air conditioning for a day, read a hard book, do a hard math problem, take a martial arts class, do 100 pushups, go a month without buying any fancy clothes, go a week without any sugar. It won't hurt you. In fact according to Martin Seligman, the famous happiness psychologist, it will make you a hell of a lot happier. And as Charlie Munger says it will make you a hell of a lot richer too. -Found Any Value? Please Upvote❤ |

| title | THE BRIGHT FUTURE OF CRYPTO🔥🔥 |
| body | The Future of Cryptocurrency Some economic analysts predict a big change in crypto is forthcoming as institutional money enters the market. Moreover, there is the possibility that crypto will be floated on the Nasdaq, which would further add credibility to blockchain and its uses as an alternative to conventional currencies. Some predict that all that crypto needs is a verified exchange traded fund (ETF). An ETF would definitely make it easier for people to invest in Bitcoin, but there still needs to be the demand to want to invest in crypto, which some say may not automatically be generated with a fund. Understanding Bitcoin Bitcoin is a decentralized currency that uses peer-to-peer technology, which enables all functions such as currency issuance, transaction processing and verification to be carried out collectively by the network. While this decentralization renders Bitcoin free from government manipulation or interference, the flipside is that there is no central authority to ensure that things run smoothly or to back the value of a Bitcoin. Bitcoins are created digitally through a “mining” process that requires powerful computers to solve complex algorithms and crunch numbers. They are currently created at the rate of 25 Bitcoins every 10 minutes and will be capped at 21 million, a level that is expected to be reached in 2140. These characteristics make Bitcoin fundamentally different from a fiat currency, which is backed by the full faith and credit of its government. Fiat currency issuance is a highly centralized activity supervised by a nation’s central bank. While the bank regulates the amount of currency issued in accordance with its monetary policy objectives, there is theoretically no upper limit to the amount of such currency issuance. In addition, local currency deposits are generally insured against bank failures by a government body. Bitcoin, on the other hand, has no such support mechanisms. The value of a Bitcoin is wholly dependent on what investors are willing to pay for it at a point in time. As well, if a Bitcoin exchange folds up, clients with Bitcoin balances have no recourse to get them back. Bitcoin Future Outlook The future outlook for bitcoin is the subject of much debate. While the financial media is proliferated by so-called crypto-evangelists, Harvard University Professor of Economics and Public Policy Kenneth Rogoff suggests that the “overwhelming sentiment” among crypto advocates is that the total “market capitalisation of cryptocurrencies could explode over the next five years, rising to $5-10 [trillion].” The historic volatility of the asset class is “no reason to panic,” he says. Still, he tempered his optimism and that of the “crypto evangelist” view of Bitcoin as digital gold, calling it “nutty,” stating its long-term value is “more likely to be $100 than $100,000.” Rogoff argues that unlike physical gold, Bitcoin’s use is limited to transactions, which makes it more vulnerable to a bubble-like collapse. Additionally, the cryptocurrency’s energy-intensive verification process is “vastly less efficient” than systems that rely on “a trusted central authority like a central bank.” Increasing Scrutiny Bitcoin’s main benefits of decentralization and transaction anonymity have also made it a favored currency for a host of illegal activities including money laundering, drug peddling, smuggling and weapons procurement. This has attracted the attention of powerful regulatory and other government agencies such as the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), the SEC, and even the FBI and Department of Homeland Security (DHS). In March 2013, FinCEN issued rules that defined virtual currency exchanges and administrators as money service businesses, bringing them within the ambit of government regulation. In May that year, the DHS froze an account of Mt. Gox – the largest Bitcoin exchange – that was held at Wells Fargo, alleging that it broke anti-money laundering laws. And in August, New York’s Department of Financial Services issued subpoenas to 22 emerging payment companies, many of which handled Bitcoin, asking about their measures to prevent money laundering and ensure consumer protection. Alternatives to Bitcoin Despite its recent issues, Bitcoin’s success and growing visibility since its launch has resulted in a number of companies unveiling alternative cryptocurrencies, such as:Litecoin – Litecoin is regarded as Bitcoin's leading rival at present, and it is designed for processing smaller transactions faster. It was founded in October 2011 as "a coin that is silver to Bitcoin’s gold,” according to founder Charles Lee. Unlike the heavy computer horsepower required for Bitcoin mining, Litecoins can be mined by a normal desktop computer. Litecoin’s maximum limit is 84 million – four times Bitcoin’s 21-million limit – and it has a transaction processing time of about 2.5 minutes, about one-fourth that of Bitcoin. Ripple – Ripple was launched by OpenCoin, a company founded by technology entrepreneur Chris Larsen in 2012. Like Bitcoin, Ripple is both a currency and a payment system. The currency component is XRP, which has a mathematical foundation like Bitcoin. The payment mechanism enables the transfer of funds in any currency to another user on the Ripple network within seconds, in contrast to Bitcoin transactions, which can take as long as 10 minutes to confirm. MintChip – Unlike most cryptocurrencies, MintChip is actually the creation of a government institution, specifically the Royal Canadian Mint. MintChip is a smartcard that holds electronic value and can transfer it securely from one chip to another. Like Bitcoin, MintChip does not need personal identification; unlike Bitcoin, it is backed by a physical currency, the Canadian dollar. The Future Some of the limitations that cryptocurrencies presently face – such as the fact that one’s digital fortune can be erased by a computer crash, or that a virtual vault may be ransacked by a hacker – may be overcome in time through technological advances. What will be harder to surmount is the basic paradox that bedevils cryptocurrencies – the more popular they become, the more regulation and government scrutiny they are likely to attract, which erodes the fundamental premise for their existence. While the number of merchants who accept cryptocurrencies has steadily increased, they are still very much in the minority. For cryptocurrencies to become more widely used, they have to first gain widespread acceptance among consumers. However, their relative complexity compared to conventional currencies will likely deter most people, except for the technologically adept. A cryptocurrency that aspires to become part of the mainstream financial system may have to satisfy widely divergent criteria. It would need to be mathematically complex (to avoid fraud and hacker attacks) but easy for consumers to understand; decentralized but with adequate consumer safeguards and protection; and preserve user anonymity without being a conduit for tax evasion, money laundering and other nefarious activities. Since these are formidable criteria to satisfy, is it possible that the most popular cryptocurrency in a few years’ time could have attributes that fall in between heavily-regulated fiat currencies and today’s cryptocurrencies? While that possibility looks remote, there is little doubt that as the leading cryptocurrency at present, Bitcoin’s success (or lack thereof) in dealing with the challenges it faces may determine the fortunes of other cryptocurrencies in the years ahead. Should You Invest in Cryptocurrencies? If you are considering investing in cryptocurrencies, it may be best to treat your “investment” in the same way you would treat any other highly speculative venture. In other words, recognize that you run the risk of losing most of your investment, if not all of it. As stated earlier, a cryptocurrency has no intrinsic value apart from what a buyer is willing to pay for it at a point in time. This makes it very susceptible to huge price swings, which in turn increases the risk of loss for an investor. Bitcoin, for example, plunged from $260 to about $130 within a six-hour period on April 11, 2013. If you cannot stomach that kind of volatility, look elsewhere for investments that are better suited to you. While opinion continues to be deeply divided about the merits of Bitcoin as an investment – supporters point to its limited supply and growing usage as value drivers, while detractors see it as just another speculative bubble – this is one debate that a conservative investor would do well to avoid. Conclusion The emergence of Bitcoin has sparked a debate about its future and that of other cryptocurrencies. Despite Bitcoin’s recent issues, its success since its 2009 launch has inspired the creation of alternative cryptocurrencies such as Litecoin, Ripple and MintChip. A cryptocurrency that aspires to become part of the mainstream financial system would have to satisfy very divergent criteria. While that possibility looks remote, there is little doubt that Bitcoin’s success or failure in dealing with the challenges it faces may determine the fortunes of other cryptocurrencies in the years ahead. |

| title | The Future Of Cryptocurrencies💣 |
| body | Cryptocurrencies have come a long way since the first Bitcoin which used to buy a couple of pizzas. Few of the people who owned these currencies still have them. But, many who rode the first wave of crypto have been rewarded with an ample amount of money and properties. How about 10 fabulous predictions for the future of cryptocurrencies? Everyone will start to use Cryptocurrencies — and they may not even be aware of it. Though it has been a decade since the arrival of Cryptocurrencies, there are people who aren’t aware of it. They make use of the traditional method of transactions to manage the money flow. In the future, businesses will start using Cryptocurrencies to pay for their services. With this, businesses will remove the middleman from various processes. And it will reduces costs and makes their services cheaper for the end user. All this will happen even when people aren’t aware of the cryptocurrencies. Bitcoins will hit $1 million. John McAfee has predicted a very bold thought about Bitcoin hitting $1 million by the end of 2020. He believes that, crypto currencies are the most trusted ones. Once the Bitcoin takes over the global economy, the demand will increase and the traditional dollars will no longer be needed. The owner of Snapchat, Jeremy Liew and Blockchain co-founder Peter Smith predicts that by 2030, the price will have reached $500.000. In the future, Bitcoin will act as Remittances for many people. Lack of knowledge can make the people buy Bitcoins as a safer mode of investment similar to Gold. With smartphone transactions, half of the world will march towards non-cash transactions by the year 2030. Cryptocurrencies will replace Fiat currencies. According to Draper, one of the Crypto Enthusiast has recorded his view on the same. He says fiat currencies will disappear as people will start marching towards cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc. The major reason for this adoption is people believe cryptocurrencies as the reliable storages of value accros country borders and political aspects. If you consider the most popular cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, it has reached the top 30 currencies list by passing the $10.000 hallmark. Thus, most of the experts predict Cryptocurrencies are here to stay by being an alternative for Fiat Currencies. Moreover, it is said that the total lifespan of fiat currencies will be at a maximum of five years. -Please If You Liked The Article Upvote it😊, & Follow VALUEMATION For More Special✨ Content💙. |
