postlinks — Thu, 08 Dec 2011 19:46:36 +0000

Retirement life planning requires numerous years of savings to build up a nest egg to use all through your retirement life. Government entities advances tax favorable old age savings intended for both firms and individuals; nevertheless it has guidelines you have to stick to. It recommends important retirement age checkpoints to help thwart early use of those savings then it requires their use in retirement. Social Security along with Medicare health insurance programs have their own crucial retirement requirements and important ages of application. Knowing these types of ages are usually important to your retirement planning.

While most people pursue retirement plans so as to make sure they have got a respectable retirement amount of money plus a satisfactory quantity of pension income, when you enter it, you understand there could be some other sub-objectives which help you place more income in your pocketbook. Some of those goals may be to lessen or eliminate the amount of Social Security Tax you pay. Specifically, you are taxed on your Social Security income according to your entire level of income along with what components makeup that income. Utilization of a retirement calculator is very helpful for such retirement planning along with reducing income taxes.

The intention of just about every retirement calculator should be to let you know either of these 2 bits of facts:
1. the amount you actually need in order to save (commonly every month) to be able to stop working or
2. how large of your nest egg you must have in order to leave the workplace.

The retirement calculator online does these types of calculations by means of accounting for the particular retirement property you already possess PLUS:

* savings within a retirement plan including 401k or even IRA
* regular monthly cash flow you might acquire from the type of pension or even coming from social security or deferred comp plan
* non-retirement assets that you’ve got: stocks and shares, bonds, mutual funds, notes, and many others
* usable equity in your own home you might have available if you ever want to trade down in addition to access money for investment or maybe take a reverse mortgage loan

This retirement calculator also considers the age at which you want to leave the workplace along with your calculated lifespan. While it may look like like the biggest concern is the amount of retirement money you bring to your retirement that could affect your own retirement living comfort, it is really not these kind of financial aspects. The most significant impactors of the old age comfort are your retirement age and the number of years you may spend within old age. For that reason, whenever using any retirement calculator, we recommend you run the situation many times using various life expectancies and also see what are the results after you alter the retirement age from say age 64 to age 66. You can be quite surprised at the real difference you see.

THINGS TO LOOK FOR WHEN SELECTING HOSPITALITY MANAGEMENT SCHOOLS

admin — Wed, 05 Oct 2011 12:06:08 +0000

Tourism and recreation will never go away, regardless of how bad the economy may seem. Because of this, hospitality management has become a popular choice for students in recent years. But what are the things that you should look for when looking through all the hospitality management schools?

Probably the most important aspect of choosing a school is its location. Many students prefer to go to school in their local area to save money. Money can be saved by avoiding costly moves, decreasing commutes, and living with roommates or family.

Tuition is also very important to choosing a hospitality management school. College is very expensive and most people have to take out loans. Compare the tuition for different places of education. They may have varying costs, different term lengths, and changing credits per class. If you are planning on going to school in a different state, be aware of the tuition costs for out of state students.

You will have to choose whether you want to go to a big school or a smaller one. Big education faculities usually are well known and having their name on your degree may be able to help you get a better job. However, you will usually have to pay more for that prestige. On the other hand, smaller schools usually offer lower tuitions and are more focused on their students. Because the campuses are smaller, they generally have smaller class sizes and students tend to feel like they have gotten more for their money. Regardless, both big and small schools have their advantages and disadvantages.

Some schools require that students live on campus, at least for a portion of their schooling. Make sure that you are familiar with these requirements for the education facilities that you are interested in. Not only can living on campus not be what you are interested in, but it can also cost a lot of extra money.

Review each schools job placement rates. Most schools will be able to provide you with statistics on how many students who graduated were able to get work in certain career fields. This may also help you to determine if the school or field of study that you are interested in is in fact right for you.

You should select several schools that you would like to attend. After you have done that, be sure to visit their campuses and take a tour. This will help you to get a feel for the school and make a more informed decision to what school you might want to attend.

Once you have narrowed your school selection down a little more, you should determine the requirements for being accepted to the facility that you are most interested in. Determine what kind of tests (SAT, ACT, etc) they require and any enrollment or application fees. There may be other requirements, so be sure to ask during your campus visit.

If you are interested in a career in the tourism and recreation industry, hospitality management is the way to go. Choosing amongst the many hospitality management schools can be difficult, but once you find one, you will be on your way to a rewarding career.

REGINA L.
I just want you to know that I love the way you write and explain everything. I am new to this, and have lost 50% of my account until I met you guys. Iit is slowly coming back. I will be calling to set up a year
of membership rather than the one quarter. Thanks again, and LOVE YOU ALL.

STEVE T.
Rick, I appreciate the advice. I think I will just sit back and utilize your selections only for awhile. This will obviously save me a great deal of money in commissions. I have gone thru your entire site including the video on money management. This has brought me to the stark realization that I have been trading too much for too little. I definitely have not been “swinging for the fences”, but I also think I have been getting impatient with trades and getting out too fast. This has no doubt caused me too trade too much. I like, and definitely agree on, the advice on money management. Thanks for the help.

SCOTT H.
Thank you!!! I held on to the NFLX position since Nov. 13 at a cost of $1.89. Sold ½ on April 14th for a 540% return and the other ½ upon earnings for 702% return. Total profit of $11,615 a 621% return. Keep the recommendations coming and thanks to you and your team for the service you provide.

PETER G.
Rick & Team, GREAT Call on NKE for my two trading accounts:
1) Entry at .65, out at 1.45, 1.55 Profit = $415
2) Entry at .60, out at 1.75, 1.50 Profit = $485

LAWRENCE O.
Hey Rick! Here is an update on what your picks have done in my accounts.

1) Great call on the JoyG March 55. I bought when you said, then bought again on one of the dips. Booked 80+% profit. Made enough to pay for your service for years to come.

2) Also booked profits on your Berk Feb 74 (80%) and threw a major chunk of change at the March 75’s (190+%). I would have never known that Buffet’s stock had split if it weren’t for your service. Bought the shares also for the long haul. Won’t look at them for another 20 years. Great job on getting us in before the indexes did.

3) Took profit on your Imax March 12.5. 20 cent trailing stop at 1.90 yesterday. Not sure what the profit on that was, but profit is profit.

I see that you took a loss on some of these. It’s all good. I look to trade your “ideas” not your exact calls. I THANK YOU! For your ideas and commentary. Keep up the good work. And keep those ideas coming.

C.J.
Loving this subscription so far! I got into the BRK feb 76 calls the day you talked about right before the split…now up over 300% (0.70 to 2.475)! Keep the good picks coming and let’s see some OSIS and EMC upside soon! Just wanted to share my positive enthusiasm on your newsletter…it gives us individual investors great ideas on not only the options market, but also the broader equity market! Case in point is BRK…I can’t always read the breaking business news but its easy to read your twice daily updates on my smartphone…helped me get some BRK shares immediately after the split which I will hold for the long haul! Thanks again!

SHAUN
Aloha Rick – Thank you so much for the great CL pick. I am not sure if there was buy-out/merger news or what but at 3PM today Colgate-Palmolive absolutely EXPLODED to the upside, and my calls turned into green candy when they went from 1.40 to 3.8 in a matter of seconds! I even sold a few for over 4.0! Much thanks and keep the solid picks up my friend, honestly. Only a fool would scoff at 267% gains… Peace!

MICHAEL K.
I like the fact that you ask for comments from subscribers. Good customer service. By the way, am enjoying the service so far. Some good
profitable calls. Keep up the good work.

PARAG P.
Woo hoo! Out for 50% on WMT this am. Making up for my depression for getting out of pcln for a 30% gain monday you the man! any word on the manual? My friend Mike ( who I sent to your service) told me he emailed you about your integrity in reporting fills. I echo that sentiment big time.. keep it up! Cheers!

JAY P.
Hi Rick, as a new member all I can say is, ‘show off’ LOL, with PCLN.

MIKE
Rick, I am a new subscriber to your service, and I want to say I am impressed. I am impressed by your results, but more than that I am impressed by your reporting of your fills. You could have easily said you got that Wal-Mart call today for 80 cents, instead you reported 98 cents! Good job and keep it up, I watched the reporting of the fills first, and then I subscribed. Thank You.

TRISH D.
Hi, good morning. I jumped the gun a little on this one (PCLN). But still made $1,675.00 profit!! Very happy!! Keep up the good work!! Thanks.

MIN L.
Hi there, I have joined recently, and I am very happy to tell you that I am up over $10,000 on your picks in a month. I started on 10/7 with the Intel pick. I’ll be your member for life. Please don’t quit on us. Also, I am learning a lot about options. I didn’t get in your recent APOL and that gold trade and only had one loss on CHK. I appreciate all the DD you do. I enjoy your market commentaries. Best advice site period, and I have tried a few here and there. Again, you guys rock!

JOE G.
Thanks be to Momentum Options Trading for providing me with some fantastic wins. I just started with this service and am up nearly 50% in less than a month. There have been losses, but if I manage them properly, I will continue the best efforts given on the blog (in which there are no complaints). What a great cause for humanity. I feel more confident about my trades and continue to play the wins. Best of all, I am now keeping my regular paychecks in the bank! Thank you!

GREG F.
Rick – I wanted to say thanks for getting me started on the right foot with your service. I have made six trades since starting on October 22, 2009. Five are winners and One loser netting me $6,245. Thanks again and keep the trade recommendations coming.

NOEL
I got into the Nike 60 Call at 1.85, sold at 5.00, also bought a 55 put at 1.05, but got stopped out at .35. What a ride! $2830.00 in the black even with the put. It’s right at 100% return. I hope earnings season coming up is going to look like this trade.

TODD F.
Nice call on Nike. I think I’ll go buy a pair with my profits! : ) I did the straddle for safety but still made 62% on the trade. Not bad for less than 24 hours. If Goldman is right, then the Nov 70s or 75′s could be a steal today.

PAUL H.
What a sweet way to get introduced to Momentum. My first trade based on your picks and it a 2X. Thank you!

NOEL
“Limit order was set at 1.60 on RIMM so it sold. I may have left some money on the table but you can’t go broke making a profit. That was a fun trade. Thank you. Good call. I’ve been watching and trading Rick’s advice since March. It’s usually a fun ride, but I give him heck when it’s wrong to. ”

CHRISTIAN
“Your service rocks! I made bank on Dendreon last week! The other thing I have to say is that it took me quite a while to find a REAL options trading service like yours. Most of what’s out there is 99% scam and very sketchy. Momentum Options Trading is the first service I found that I can trust and seriously make money with.”

JOHN
“I made $420.00 on ANF in 2 days. Thanks for the trade and updates on getting out of the trade.”

CHARLES M.
“I did follow a lot of your trades with 1-2 contracts per trade and YTD I’m up 108%. I try not to follow blindly by not entering all of your trades and sometimes entering the ones you don’t. I entered AIG a few weeks ago against recommendation – that one hurt.”

BRYAN C.
“I have been following you for several months and am interested in the new service. I hate to see the free service go away but as they say, “all good things must come to an end”. My ability to join will be greatly influenced by the monthly fee so I’m very curious to see the new prices. Thanks for making April a great month for me and my family.”

JOHN H.
“I have really enjoyed the past month since finding your blog. You have made some great calls. I would appreciate info. on the new options mentoring program. Thanks.”

JEFFREY
“Hi Rick, I have been following your blog for several months now and I would like to be including on the list for your new service and to receive more information about it. And yes I was a Dendreon winner with your tips. Turned $280 into $7700, and literally saved my butt.”

ED
“I made over 6k on your Dendreon trade, and I’m very interested in learning how you pick and trade options. Sign me up.”

GREG
“Rick – Wow what a day! I got in at the Dendreon calls at $2.25. Thanks to for your advice. I appreciate that. This company has a lock on this type of therapy and no one else in the world is close. Kind of reminds me of the type of companies that Peter Lynch and Warren Buffet suggest that investments be made in. Companies that can build a moat around their business model, that allows them to charge a premium for their product or service. In other words – a monopoly.”

KEN
“Hi Rick, Thank you so much for the Dendreon trade, I made almost $10,000 with that trade with a little over $2,000 investment. You have shown me the power of options trading. Again, thank you so much for all your inputs.”

GARETT
“Hi Rick, thanks for the encouragement to play the dendreon calls! did freaking great! Got in the first lot at $1.44 on 3-24-09, sold at $2.45, 70% not bad. Bought it back at $2.30 on 4-7-09 closed out on 4-14-09 for 454% gain! Wow! I love it when that happens. So, thanks the encouragement to get back in when others were saying sell, sell, sell. Keep up the good work.”

TERENCE
“Rick – Thanks for Dendreon – it has made all the headlines today! I missed on RIMM earlier, but I’ve been holding onto DNDN calls since 3rd week March. Of course today it all paid off today, as DNDN rocketed up.”

BEST CHICKENS FOR EGGS

admin — Wed, 05 Oct 2011 11:42:06 +0000

Looking for the best layers for your backyard chicken flock? While every hen lays eggs, not all breeds are as prolific as others. If you are hoping to have eggs every day from your hens, you will want to make sure you have the right breed.

White Leghorn

The White Leghorn is the most popular chicken breed around the world, and with good reason. The Leghorn hen can lay about 300 eggs per year. Leghorns mature early and start laying at four to five months of age.

The Leghorn’s eggs are large and slightly off white in color. The hens are nervous and will avoid human contact if possible, however, so they are not always good as pets.

White Leghorns, like most good layers, rarely go broody, so if you want to hatch out some eggs to raise chicks, you will need either another breed to set them, or an incubator.

Winter can mean frostbite in a Leghorn’s comb, so they are not good cold-weather chickens.

Rhode Island Red

These are one of the best laying chickens for brown eggs, but they are aggressive (especially the roosters).

These chickens adapt well to close confinement and are hardy in nearly all climates, but are prone to frostbite on their combs.

This breed is usually laying by 5-6 months of age and are productive producers of medium brown eggs.

Red Star and Black Star Sex linked

Well-known for their large eggs of brown color and productive egg-laying, this breed is very popular. They are docile and make very good pets that do well with children.

These hens convert food intake to eggs at a good rate and are one of the few breeds that continues to lay during the winter months. When raised from chicks, you can expect to see the first eggs when they are about four and a half months old. By 6 months old they will be producing eggs every day.

The breed gets its name because of its breed-specific gene that causes chicks to have different colors, making it easy to separate females from males. This makes it easy not to buy unwanted roosters.

This breed is a good choice for small egg sellers and family projects.

Roosters or No Roosters?

For a purely egg-laying production, there is no need to keep roosters. You only need to keep roosters if you want fertile eggs. Hatching baby chicks can increase your flock size or allow for broilers, but there is no reason to house a rooster if you do not plan to do this.

Productivity Limits of Hens

Hens produce eggs for three to four years. Egg production with most hens will start to decline at about 3 years of age. These chickens are then ready for the pot for stews or chicken and dumplings.

Some may prefer to make friends with their hens and put the older ones out to pasture instead.

BOE: MORTGAGE APPROVALS UP IN FEBRUARY

admin — Wed, 05 Oct 2011 11:20:00 +0000

March 29, 2011

by Kay Murchie

The Bank of England has today revealed mortgage approvals rose in February.

According to the Bank, there were 46,967 loans approved in the month, up from January’s 46,152.

The level of approvals was broadly in line with analysts forecasts of a level of 46,800.

In the meantime, the number of remortgaging loans approved totalled 35,725 in February – a 26-month high and up from January’s level of 33,972.

However, despite the improvement, the housing market is still expected to remain subdued throughout 2011 as demand for housing is expected to stay weak as a result of the uncertainty surrounding the economy and the Government’s massive spending cuts.

Last week, the British Bankers’ Association (BBA) revealed a slight rise in the number of new mortgages approved by the major banks in February.

According to the BBA, the number of new mortgages approved in the month stood at 29,923 – marginally better than January’s level of 29,159, albeit lower than economists forecast of 29,350.

In other news today, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) revealed the UK economy contracted by 0.5% in the October to December period – slightly better than the second estimate of 0.6% but unchanged from the first estimate.

Today’s estimate is the third and final reading and the GDP figure for the January to March period will be available next month.
