Health Insurance for Self Employed

If you are self-employed, an independent contractor or part-time employee not covered by group insurance through your spouse or some sort of trade association, I suggest you read the information available to you on this site.

Health insurance provides assets protection in case of an unexpected health hardship involving a temporary physical disability caused by an illness or accident. The most important asset to protect is YOU while out of work for the duration of some health related disability.

Medical cost not covered by your insurance, if excessive, can add a heavy financial burden to your estate for many years after. There are good and competitive health insurance plans available for the self employed: You can choose any doctor nation-wide, limited international coverage, group rate rules and transportability.

Cold Calling Is A Waste Of Time

Most salespeople nowadays waste tremendous amounts of time cold calling for new business despite the fact that cold calling is an obsolete, Industrial Age sales technique that is no longer viable in our new Information Age economy. In so many areas of business and life in general, new and efficient Information Age methods have been accepted and embraced, but for some reason the sales management of most companies today continue to teach, endorse, and even force the concept of "cold calling" on their salespeople, despite the fact that cold calling no longer produces the sales results it did ten or twenty years ago and in many cases produces no results at all, other than lost revenues, high salesperson turnover, and even financial bankruptcy.

I am sure you have seen adds like this:
"SALES $250K HOMELAND SECURITY! Closers and assistants needed. $100 to $250K/yr. possible. Ground floor opportunity. Call now! 877-439-3638". I can tell you this: It is all cold calling. I responded to this add and actually worked for them for five weeks. All I got was $300 a week draw and no sale.

STOP wasting your time and energy cold calling for new business and START using the Information Age sales techniques that will double or even triple your sales production and forever end cold calling! Learn more about it!

Investing in Rare Coins

Throughout history, many coin collections have produced substantial long-term profits for their owners. This is particularly true for coin collectors of this century.

Indeed, Harold Bareford reportedly purchased a collection of U.S. gold coins for $13,832 in the early 1950s which was resold at auction in 1978 for $1.2 million. A more substantial collector, Louis Eliasberg, built a collection that cost about $300,000. In 1982, it brought $12.4 million at auction.

This investment performance has been well documented by sources as diverse as The Wall Street Journal, Consumer Reports and a host of industry periodicals and guidesheets. What these reports have shown is that carefully selected portfolios of rare coins have had a high rate of long-term appreciation. Learn more at coins

Home Theater - Surround Sound at Home

Surround Sound at Home
Surround sound makes the difference. Surround sound, which is what turns conventional TV viewing into home theater, originates from program material such as DVDs that have multichannel soundtracks. The multiple channels are reproduced by three speakers across the front of the viewing area, and surround speakers to either side (Figure 1). The result is sound that transports you into the world of you're watching; you feel less like a passive viewer and more like an active participant. Learn more at surround sound

Home Theater - Movie Sound

Movie Sound
Have you ever watched a movie at home with the sound muted? It is amazing what a difference the sound makes in a movie experience. Sound, especially dialogue, makes it easier to understand what is happening. But it also provides texture and emotion to each scene. Most movies would not be interesting at all if you took away the sound. And when we go to the theaters, we expect the sound to be as exciting and encompassing as the images on the screen.

Home Theater - Surround Sound History

Basics
Understanding surround sound is very important. Room size, room shape, sound proofing, selection of sound equipment, etc. They are all important.

Going to the movies today is a very different experience from going to the movies 70 years ago -- the picture is clearer, most of the movies are in color, and the admission price is a lot higher. But the biggest change is probably the sound experience. In movie theaters of the 1930s, the entire soundtrack was played on a single speaker or collection of speakers positioned behind the movie screen. Today, theater audiences expect to hear sound coming from every direction; and the technology that once characterized only movie theaters is now fairly standard in home entertainment centers.

Home Theater - Media Source Cable

Cable Outlet

In the 1950s, there were three television networks in the United States. Because of the frequencies allotted to television, the signals could only be received in a "line of sight" from the transmitting antenna. People living in remote areas, especially remote mountainous areas, couldn't see the programs that were already becoming an important part of U.S. culture.

In these early years, only the most die-hard TV fans would go through all the hassle and expense of putting in their own dish. Satellite TV was a lot more difficult than broadcast and cable TV.Today, you see compact satellite dishes perched on rooftops all over the United States. Drive through rural areas beyond the reach of the cable companies and you'll find dishes on just about every house.
