MONEY MATTERS

Going out for shopping has become a tiring work for my mother who likes to shop online. Online stores offer everything from clothes to furniture and electronics to kitchen utensils. You are saved from the maddening festive season crowd and you are able to shop from the comfort of your home, so it is easier to shop from online stores. When my brother was asking my mother to buy him a new set of team sportswear she chose to shop from online stores.
As you are able to compare prices and buy the best deal my mother feels happy. When you buy clothes or anything from stores you are always in a doubt that you could have compared the price of the product with more stores. Now you can be clear that you have bought the product for the best available price and this feel makes you happy. A few people are not satisfied with just looking at a product made from one company, they want to look at similar products from other companies and compare them. Computer and internet have made this job easier as you are able to look at and compare products from all the companies. You can also read reviews from customers who are using these products.

We all make plans for our future and we all want it to be filled with fun and happiness. All our lives are happy till something tragic happens. We forget to think that some disaster might come that will leave us stranded. This is what happened with my friend’s family. His father was in a good job and everything was going smoothly until the day when his father met with an accident. Everything came to a standstill in their life. His mother was not able to meet the expenses of the household and the two school going children. This is when my father explained to me about life insurance and its importance. We can learn about insurance through http://www.termvsannuityinsurance.com/ . My friend’s father forgot to think about the situation of his family if he were to die sometime.

Death is something we don’t want to think about and we fail to realize the consequences. Our loved ones tend to suffer if there is no savings and no insurance policy. The insurance company pays the amount to the family upon the death of the insured person and this money will be of great help to the family which has lost an earning member. So it is very important to get insured so that our loved ones will be financially safe even if there is some sudden disaster.

New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg has sent the police force to Manhattan’s Zuccotti Park, the heart of the Occupy Wall Street movement, at 1 a.m. to evict the peaceful protesters. In an attempt to wipe off the Occupy Wall Street movement the protesters were forced out of the park.

The Mayor has said that the eviction was carried out due to health and safety reasons. The police deployed bulldozers to clear the belongings of the protesters. Peeper spray, tear gas and sound canons were also used by the police. This is similar to the Oakland police action against the Occupy protesters.

At a news conference the Mayor said, “The law that created Zuccotti Park required that it be open for the public to enjoy for passive recreation 24 hours a day.” Since the Occupy movement began, he said that the park was unavailable to anyone else. As the owners of the Park sought for the city’s assistance to clear the sleeping and camping of the protesters, the Mayor had used the police force to clear the protesters.

The National Lawyers Guild has obtained a court injunction that allowed the protesters to return with tents to the park. “The guild says the injunction prevents the city from enforcing park rules on Occupy Wall Street protesters,” reports noted.

I had been asking my dad to buy me an iPhone for a long time and I was very happy when my father bought me an iPhone. I was eagerly waiting to show it off to my friends. When I took it to college my friend taught me many new nuances of the iPhone and he also told I have to Jailbreak Unlock iPhone to be able to use it to the full. I was really awed by the applications and free accesses that I was able to get through unlocking the iPhone. Many people are unaware of this and have only a limited use of their iPhones.

Free chatting, games, ring tones and wall papers. Even you can watch live TV on your iPhone. The unlocking helped me to save money and I am really happy about it. But approach a reliable company to unlock your iPhone. They help you to use different sim cards and different networks. Now I have a phone that works on my terms and saves me money.

Since the economic crisis began in 2008, nearly 30 million people have lost their jobs. The current global jobs growth rate is 1% per year and at this jobs growth rate it is very difficult to employ the 200 million unemployed people waiting their chance to get into a job. Millions of workers are working part-time as they are not able to find regular jobs and many have given up trying to find jobs.

Even before the economic crisis, half of the total unemployment outside agriculture was in the informal economy. Two out of five workers were living below the poverty line with $2 per person, per day. Youth are the hard hit in this crisis with youth unemployment touching 80 million and this two to three times more than the adult rate of unemployment.

The protests taking place in 25 different countries are related to unemployment and income inequality. Millions have jobs but lack the basic elements like dignity, social protection and right to voice their opinion. The situation could become worse and the global jobs recession could last for decades and this would lead to very bad consequences on the society and politics.

Now it is in the hands of the G-20 leaders to convince their citizens and the financial markets that the Euro-zone, the U.S. and Japan will manage their sovereign debt crisis well. Taking emergency measures to stop this financial fire is very important and to retain political legitimacy the G-20 must with equal vigor the tragedy of the millions of the unemployed and insecure workers who are paying the price for a crisis they had no responsibility in bringing about.
