The U.S. dollar was among the first to abandon the gold reserve system 40 years ago, as part of a series of economic mandates that came to be known as the "Nixon Shock". Since then, every other major world currency has done the same. With national economies now running on the fiat capital system, in which money is conjured into existence by governmental decree, there is simply not enough of any precious metal to back up all financial transactions everywhere. But will this stop minor forays back into a gold/silver-backed system? Clearly not.

Years back, Glenmarie Cove in Klang sponsored potential property buyers a river cruise along Klang River, near the project site. Then, The Mines South Lake Heritage project took similar approach where prospective buyers could get a free lake cruise visiting both North Lake and South Lake at The Mines. Both aims at giving potential buyers a feeling of their "future lifestyle" should they buy the property. Today, The Mirage Experience by OSK Property bring the launching to another level by providing a breathtaking experience of a lifetime to visitors. Hot air balloon ride, a cruise on the Putrajaya Lake, Cyberjaya city tour, Street magicians, Clown & balloon sculpture, RSVP required, First-Come-First-Serve basis as "limited seats available". Pretty impressive, as one of my friend is planning for a hot balloon launching just before I received this special "hot balloon shape" flyer. Of course, as usual, we have better ideas and strategy to comple...

The CEO of IBM in 1952 said there would never be a market for more than five computers... Right now is 1952 for solar. Those who recognize that fact will be tomorrow's Bill Gates. The industry is still maturing, reducing costs, increasing efficiencies, and reaching economies of scale. To dismiss the long-term profit potential is like saying you wouldn't invest in Apple (NASDAQ: AAPLE) in 1985 when it was $1.84. You'd have been an idiot who missed out on 19,500% gains. It'd be like saying personal music players would never catch on when they still looked like this in 1975: One of my favorite charts showing the forecast growth of solar for the next decade: Just keep that in mind when pondering the future of energy. The "here and now" perspective isn't always the correct angle to view the situation. Advances are being made every day. And it won't be long before solar goes the way of the iPod... Everyone will have one. The key is...

One day, Gandhi was getting off a train when one of his shoes slipped off and fell onto the track. As the train had started to move, he could not retrieved it, so he removed his other shoe and threw it near where the first shoe fell. Asked why, he smiled gently and replied:"Now the poor man who finds these lying on the tracks will have a pair he can use." We are here to learn lessons and the world is our teacher. Gain wisdom by reading good books, learn from successful people and share with others. Learn to do everything with love and everything will become easier and attainable. Gandhi said: "You must be the change you wish to see in the world." Coincidence with what was learned from Money & You program, "For things to change, first I must change" 1.

Social networking devices seem to play a significant role in facilitating an easy way for strangers to come together for the purpose of organizing a protest. As so many protests around the world have been transformed into more aggressive outbreaks of violence and rioting, several questions and concerns now revolve around these modern social networking vehicles. Mob Robs During Riots There's a hot new trend in civil unrest, called Mob Robs, when a mob of people swarm into a store and take everything in sight. The store workers become completely overwhelmed and can do nothing to stop it. A typical Mob Rob: These mob robs sound frightening similar to the food riots happening around the world. And the really disturbing part is that they're happening more and more frequently...

The Fed would wait for the pain to get intolerable and then would reenter with a third round of quantitative easing. Simply said, the Fed will wait for us to beg for the poison that is killing us… more counterfeit money. The business of America's business had become passing paper around, a process called "securitisation". The financial sector (lending money) contributed 44% of US corporate profits; only 10% came from manufacturing. Billions of profits from money-lending allowed the finance industry to buy all the politicians it wanted, and keep the media docile. Financial regulation barely functioned and banks were allowed to lend US$35-40 for every US$1 deposit. Managers of the huge pools of unregulated capital called hedge funds had to pay only 15% tax while ordinary workers paid double, or more. Washington's answer was more debt to cure the problems caused by too much debt. (so we have QE, QE2... check out inflation explained . Money should not be made ...

As the turbines spin, clean renewable energy will flow into the power grid. In short, it's an interesting mix of the best of both solar and wind power; but unlike solar and wind, the mechanical energy created by Davey’s machine allows the unit to operate 24/7. As for cost, the project has a $750 million price tag. According to a 2005 industry report, this would imply about 10 cents per kilowatt-hour, which is roughly one-third the cost of electricity from current solar cells and almost half of the cost from nuclear power. Financial models suggest the tower will pay for itself in 11 years; engineers believe the tower will have a life span of 80 years. Once it’s built, Davey’s tower can be expected to produce power with virtually no maintenance. Better yet, it requires no "feed stock" — nothing but air and sunlight spin the turbines...Instead, hot air rushes out of the huge, towering mouth of Davey's creation — enough hot air, in fact, to turn a massive turbin...

Some coverage on food, financial mess, riots... The haves and have-nots Whatever the cause, what we have seen is how socially excluded groups of people have take to the streets and for that suddenly been given the time of day by the media, those in authority and the world is paying attention – willingly or unwillingly. Large generations of Malaysian young adults enter the workforce with a heavy load of debt for basic needs and are unable to buy homes and cars without their parents help. What will then happen to the next few generations? Will they have to pay off a generational debt? When people are hungry for basic necessities, have worked hard and still do not make enough to live, it is only a matter of time before they reach their tipping point – and then what? http://www.thesundaily.my/news/108243 Japan Food Riot Fears on the Rise The price of 60 kilograms of rice had a reference price of $13,700 (£8,399) for delivery in 2012 but it reached more than $19,210 on the ...

Frank Robinson was a bookkeeper who worked for Dr John Pemberton. Robinson gave the mixture of caramel-coloured syrup and carbonated water the name, Coca-Cola. He wrote out the name in his distinctive cursive writing. Today, 125 years later, the name is written in exactly the same manner as Robinson first wrote it. Now that is sustainability. 1.

Innovation ensures that a company and by extension, its investors, will not stand still. Two ways to determine the importance a company attaches to innovation: - to examine the company's history of rolling out new products, - to check the annual report for the amount of annual spend on research and development. 3.

假如中国拥有2万亿美元的外汇资产，而人民币对美元比价为 8：1，那么以这些资产为抵押发行了16万亿人民币，这些“毒素超标”的美元资产收据经过银行系统的放大作用已经流入中国的经济体内，并广为大众持有。 如果在美国的压力下，人民币被迫升值到 6：1，会发生什么呢？做个形象的比喻： 如果2万亿美元在国际市场上能够换回16万亿个面包，那么人民币升值前的每一张收据可换一个面包。 现在面包价格突然变为用12万亿张新收据可买16万亿个面包，貌似升值后的新收据购买力提高了，但实际上当人们用这个比价关系去换取面包时，会突然发现在前12万亿张收据取走了16万亿个面包后，“还有4万亿张收据什么也换不到了！” 在人民币升值的那一瞬间，强制12万亿张“新币”等价于16万亿张“旧币”，意味着“旧币”对于存量资产的购买力的暴跌！ 这与蒋介石1:200兑换沦陷区的伪币，和苏联1：10兑换旧卢布一样， 都是对旧币持有人的财富剥夺 ！ 更糟糕的是，由于美元滥发，导致了国际商品价格上涨，2万亿美元以前可以买到16万亿个面包，如果现在只能买到10万亿个面包，其结果就是16万亿张旧收据可索取的真实财富从16万亿个面包下降到10万亿个面包，这意味着升值前的人民币持有人的实际购买力大幅缩水。 这就是为什么人民币对外“名义升值”，而对内的真实购买力却在贬值的原因。 当货币以美元为抵押发行时，美元的贬值将最终传导到货币持有人头上！ 从表面上看，美元储备资产被政府拥有，但这些资产的最终收据却掌握在人民币持有人手中，因此，这些“劣质毒美元”资产的实际拥有者是老百姓，而政府仅仅是“代持”。 最终拥有美国债权的并不是政府，而是广大货币持有人，因此， 美国赖帐的最后埋单人是老百姓！ 当大众的视线被吸引到贸易平衡或汇率操纵等话题的时候，真正上演的其实是货币升值对国家几十年来所有存量资产进行价格重估的大戏。 相关资讯： Inflation Explained - movie 你被A了嗎？ 我國的外匯儲備簡單來說主要分為美元和黃金。我們拼死拼命存錢──假設存了100美元藏在枕頭底下，門外，老美的印鈔機卻“砰砰”聲在印鈔票，一夜之間，枕頭下的100美元變小了。老美繼續“嘿嘿嘿”，全球跟它一起分擔苦痛，同時間它所承擔的債務隨著美元眨值而減輕了。 在美元面前，我們都是...

Ever wonder why Malaysians are paying more for food, even living in a blessed country that could grow crops all year round? Check out some facts: The most significant factor affecting food prices is the lack of investment and focus on the agricultural sector. In Malaysia the public development in agriculture fell from 22% in 1980 to 3.8% in 2007. Agriculture’s contribution to gross domestic product fell from 22.9% in 1980 to 7.7% in 2007. The result was a greater dependence on food imports. Malaysia’s import bill increased from RM11.6 billion in 2003 to RM21.5 billion in 2007, an increase of 85% in just four years. As the writer of the letter, N. Marimuthu, President of Fomca suggested: "to reduce dependence on food imports and to ensure affordable food prices and more important food security, the government needs to invest and give higher priority to food and agricultural development." The various measures need to be undertaken as suggested are: 1. Land Refo...

Angry Birds involves catapulting cartoonish birds into fortresses built by egg-stealing green pigs but Vesterbacka (chief marketing officer of Angry Birds creator Rovio) said Rovio is "not a games company". What we are building here is the next generation of entertainment franchises. With some 300 million downloads, the addictive game is heading for global domination. However, success doesn't come overnight. "We built 51 games before Angry Birds so it wasn't like we were an overnight success." said Vesterbacka. Rovio has successfully expanded the Angry Birds franchise from the virtual world to the real world despite being repeatedly advised that it would not work . "We've been told time after time that we're not supposed to do movies, books, toys," he said. " We sold like 8 million toys." It's not "rocket science". If you are a strong brand, if you have a strong following of fans you can do anything. ...
