Only a fool would use a credit card to invest
Unlike a mutual fund, UIT share prices in the secondary market may be priced above or below the net asset value of the trust's actual holdings. When you buy shares of UITs, you typically pay a sales fee, or load, of around 4 or 5 percent. But you should note that many mutual funds carry no sales loads at all. My dumbest investment: Lord, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. This means don't invest in things you don't know much about. I made a real estate investment in a marginal property and lost hundreds of thousands of dollars. It makes every mistake I ever made in the stock market appear trivial. Blind faith, hunches, and the assumption that there is a solution to every problem are what lead people into financial disasters.

Practitioners of tourism industry urged to charge fair rates
Accra, Feb. 5, GNA - The Ghana Tourism Society (GTS) has appealed to stakeholders in the tourism industry, especially private companies that have enjoyed tax rebates and exemptions to ensure that their prices and rates were commensurate to their services. The Society said all those who had enjoyed tax exemptions and duty-free incentives from the Ghana Investments Promotions Council (GIPC) should ensure that they kept their prices low and competitive to encourage more tourists into the country. Mr Ernest W. Owusu, President of the Ghana Tourism Society, in a release copied to the GNA Sports, said the gesture would go a long way in boosting the nation's tourism sector especially following the presence of a large number of visitors and football fans for the Ghana 2008 soccer tournament. He reminded all private entrepreneurs, corporate bodies and service providers, including hotels and car rental companies, tour operators and entertainment centres in the hospitality industry that the exemptions was to ensure that Ghana became competitive and affordable leisure holiday destination.

The ripple effect is dramatic. Even more dramatic are some of the tactics homeowners are using to fight back against many of the deceptive subprime and other loans that knowingly put them in unaffordable situations. When courts favor property rights over human rights, many are just trashing their homes in an orgy of anger and revenge before abandoning them. You might say these homeowners should have known better. True, some may have been scammers in the American tradition of always seeking a good deal, buying now and paying later. But there's no longer any denying that a large number were victimized by predatory practices and “deals" pedaled by sleazy brokers but backed by top banks and investment houses. Richard Biter, a former Subprime salesman tells all in, “Greed, Fraud & Ignorance: A Subprime Insider's Look at the Mortgage Collapse." He reports, according to a review by blogger Charles Hugh Smith, “that up to 80% of all subprime loan applications were rejected by honest subprime mortgage brokers.
