Ok, somebody might feel strange at this statement, but yes, it is my strong belief that business is not about making money.
Life is about making money, whether you are in business or not, otherwise unless you have a pile of cash inherited somehow, you will end up sleeping on the streets and starving to death.
Business is about not loosing those money.
Main reason for a business to exist is to deliver as promised and keep the clients happy, at the right price, not "to make money". Money will come if you keep up with the first law of business, which is above.
How can you lose those money?
Million ways, plus one.
To start with; there is the government that wants at all costs to kill your business ASAP by taxing you to death and also by using your business, free of charge of course, to collect taxes for them, like VAT that helps you not, you merely take it from the client on top of what you really charge for the job, than without making any profit for this work you do, you give it to the government so they don't shut you down and put you in jail for not working for free for them. Extortion by the law.
And that is not the only way the government is twisting your arm to rip you off, thus until you are in business, you need to know all those ways, keep them in your mind and price your job accordingly so you can cope with the situation.
Another enemy of your business is YOU, and your family.
Yap, you need to live too, wife needs new curtains one week yes and the other one too, same for skirts, shoes, more shoes, other shoes, than think of kids.... bleeding money.
So the first question they ask you is: You are in business, where is the money? Why can't we afford a jet plane like Rockefeller? Or at least new tires at the car...!
To top up, you need to work extra, you are never rested enough, take wrong decisions, postpone too much doing things, start paying low salaries to cut loss, loose best employees because of that, bottom line, go bankrupt. All your fault.
So don't tell me is not your fault....
Than there are the friends and relatives, I mean, uhhh... you are in business, darn it, if not you who is going to help them? A job, yap, right, they are not the best fit person for that job, but you grew up together, and yes I know the clients are not happy with them on the job, but what can you do... so you go bankrupt for helping them out for a while, than they are back in trouble, and so are you.
And last but not least, the clients, demanding more than contracted, willing to pay less than contracted, never happy with the price, and if and when possible, pay you six months later than agreed, or latter...
And this kills the cash flow, and the cash flow is the blood of your business, and with no blood the business collapses and dies, although you have good employees, deliver fine jobs in time, and there is a bunch of cash you have to recuperate from the market for jobs well done, thus in theory you are rich, but in reality penniless, therefore dead.
Life sucks, especially for start-uppers, mostly if they have no big cash backup to resist until the cash flow becomes steady, so if you want to make it, you need to abide to rules that you might hate, but they keep you alive, you have to accept that friends, relatives and family consider you a bad guy, self centred and that ignores their needs, somehow you thought about your nastiest professors in school, but hey... you need to admit that what you studied with them, while hating them, are things you still know and use, and help you make a living in life, while things you have not learned just because the nice professors did not wanted to be the bad guys, is exactly the things you need but cannot use, you loved the professors, but they made you a looser.
Is like being a surgeon, you cut the dude with a knife, chop their bodies, take parts out of it and sow them back like a salami, but you do it to save them, they might hate you for the pain you inflict them, and perhaps for living them without a limb or an organ. But if you do not do it, they are as good as dead, so they should be grateful to you, but they are not. Nor the family or friends.
That's it, go ahead, bow your head, face the winds and the storms, let them hate you, learn to stay alive, and one day you will eventually go pension, or make money... who can tell.

Dark Matter ain't, Dark Energy ain't, doesen't matter... yap, that one it is!
Big Bang ain't.
Imagine something popping out of nothing.
Illusionism?
Magic?
Harry Potter! Most propbably yes.
Now imagine something of the magnitude of this " known to us" universe popping out of nothing...
Not event MIGHTY MOUSE could do this, nor Harry Potter, maybe professor Dumbledore, or maybe not.
As Einstein and Tesla were convinced, it is all about frequncies and thier inter relations, thus when any analysys is reduced to the minimum amount, there is nothing left to touch, under the smallest phisically detectable matter piece, whatever the sub quantic, micro mezonic, nano tahionic piece would that be, there is no matter this matter is formed out of.
There is only information that writes the laws of this universe, and over a certain ammount we percieve it as matter.
My question is who wrote this information, who wrote the laws that govern this time and space exepriment, who wrote the binary code beyond time, space and matter?
EINSTEIN AND TESLA WERE BOTHERED WITH THIS ISSUE, and they did not come with an answer that convinced themselves, so they never communicated any result of this intuition they had, but they got far beyond our understanding following this logic, and understood things we still struggle to understand, and some of them even managed to explain to us, but most of them not.
Yap, they saw and understood far more than they left us in written, my question is what?

READ, WEEP, PRINT AND KEEP!
This should be on the front page of every newspaper.
Charley Reese's Final column!
A very interesting column. COMPLETELY NEUTRAL.
Be sure to Read the Poem at the end..
Charley Reese's final column for the Orlando Sentinel...
He has been a journalist for 49 years.
He is retiring and this is HIS LAST COLUMN. Be sure to read the Tax List at the end.
This is about as clear and easy to understand as it can be.
The article below is completely neutral, neither anti-republican or democrat.
Charlie Reese, a retired reporter for the Orlando Sentinel, has hit the nail directly on the head, defining clearly who it is that in the final analysis must assume responsibility for the judgments made that impact each one of us every day. It's a short but good read.
Worth the time.
Worth remembering!
545 vs. 300,000,000 People -By Charlie Reese
Politicians are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them.
Have you ever wondered, if both the Democrats and the Republicans are against deficits, WHY do we have deficits?
Have you ever wondered, if all the politicians are against inflation and high taxes, WHY do we have inflation and high taxes?
You and I don't propose a federal budget. The President does.
You and I don't have the Constitutional authority to vote on appropriations. The House of Representatives does.
You and I don't write the tax code, Congress does.
You and I don't set fiscal policy, Congress does.
You and I don't control monetary policy, the Federal Reserve Bank does.
One hundred senators, 435 congressmen, one President, and nine Supreme Court justices equates to 545 human beings out of the 300 million are directly, legally, morally, and individually responsible for the domestic problems that plague this country.
I excluded the members of the Federal Reserve Board because that problem was created by the Congress.
In 1913, Congress delegated its Constitutional duty to provide a sound currency to a federally chartered, but private, central bank.
I excluded all the special interests and lobbyists for a sound reason. They have no legal authority. They have no ability to coerce a senator, a congressman, or a President to do one cotton-picking thing. I don't care if they offer a politician $1 million dollars in cash. The politician has the power to accept or reject it. No matter what the lobbyist promises, it is the legislator's responsibility to determine how he votes.
Those 545 human beings spend much of their energy convincing you that what they did is not their fault. They cooperate in this common con regardless of party.
What separates a politician from a normal human being is an excessive amount of gall. No normal human being would have the gall of a Speaker, who stood up and criticized the President for creating deficits.. ( The President can only propose a budget. He cannot force the Congress to accept it.)
The Constitution, which is the supreme law of the land, gives sole responsibility to the House of Representatives for originating and approving appropriations and taxes.
Who is the speaker of the House?( John Boehner. He is the leader of the majority party. He and fellow House members, not the President, can approve any budget they want. ) If the President vetoes it, they can pass it over his veto if they agree to. [The House has passed a budget but the Senate has not approved a budget in over three years. The President's proposed budgets have gotten almost unanimous rejections in the Senate in that time. ]
It seems inconceivable to me that a nation of 300 million cannot replace 545 people who stand convicted -- by present facts -- of incompetence and irresponsibility.
I can't think of a single domestic problem that is not traceable directly to those 545 people. When you fully grasp the plain truth that 545 people exercise the power of the federal government, then it must follow that what exists is what they want to exist.
If the tax code is unfair, it's because they want it unfair.
If the budget is in the red, it's because they want it in the red.
If the Army & Marines are in Iraq and Afghanistan it's because they want them in Iraq and Afghanistan ..
If they do not receive social security but are on an elite retirement plan not available to the people, it's because they want it that way.
There are no insoluble government problems. Do not let these 545 people shift the blame to bureaucrats, whom they hire and whose jobs they can abolish; to lobbyists, whose gifts and advice they can reject; to regulators, to whom they give the power to regulate and from whom they can take this power.
Above all, do not let them con you into the belief that there exists disembodied mystical forces like "the economy," "inflation," or "politics" that prevent them from doing what they take an oath to do.
Those 545 people, and they alone, are responsible. They, and they alone, have the power. They, and they alone, should be held accountable by the people who are their bosses.
Provided the voters have the gumption to manage their own employees... We should vote all of them out of office and clean up their mess!
Charlie Reese is a former columnist of the Orlando Sentinel Newspaper.
What you do with this article now that you have read it... is up to you.
This might be funny if it weren't so true. Be sure to read all the way to the end:
Tax his land,
Tax his bed,
Tax the table,
At which he's fed.
Tax his tractor,
Tax his mule,
Teach him taxes Are the rule.
Tax his work,
Tax his pay,

Tax his cow,
Tax his goat,
Tax his pants,
Tax his coat.

Tax his shirt,

Tax his tobacco,
Tax his drink,

Tax his cigars,
Tax his beers,
If he cries Tax his tears.
Tax his car,
Tax his gas,
Find other ways To tax his ass.
Tax all he has
Then let him know
That you won't be done
Till he has no dough.
When he screams and hollers;
Then tax him some more,
Tax him till He's good and sore.
Then tax his coffin,
Tax his grave,
Tax the sod in Which he's laid...
Put these words Upon his tomb,
'Taxes drove me to my doom...'
When he's gone,
Do not relax,
Its time to apply
The inheritance tax.

We had absolutely no national debt, had the largest middle class in the world, and Mom stayed home to raise the kids.
What in the heck happened?
Can you spell 'politicians?'
I hope this goes around THE USA at least 545 times!!!
YOU can help it get there!!!
GO AHEAD. . . BE AN AMERICAN!!!

The sustainable economic downsizing
The thing to do that is proposed here is an old new way of living that can be expressed in the sentence "Let the machines work, while we enjoy life"
To do that we basically need to rethink as a whole and in detail the human living dominated by the absurd imperative of money accumulation, merchandise production end purchase against money, tax and profit existence.
But us, with our small possibilities, how can we take such an approach when who governs us nowadays is sabotaging such options systematically when is not straight forward forbidding them, simply because such form of society is not using banking credits nor creating taxes that for the time being are the vital blood of the economy of destruction that we practice?
Any opinion?

Basta cretinate!
La fine del mondo non verrà nel 2012 in Italia in quanto il paese non ha le infrastrutture adatte per poter sostenere un evento di tale portata.
Ma potrebbe venire nel 2013 la fine del mondo in Italia se facciamo 13, non per noi la fine, ma per loro che ci hanno governato, derubato e fregato per decenni.
Come si fa a fare 13? Pura fortuna, dico io, e un pizzico di olio di gomito!
Dobbiamo partire dalla realtà e la realtà è tante (uso il singolare in quanto correttamente usarlo al di sotto di 50, al di sopra si usa il plurale).
Lo stesso come un quadro di Picasso (avete presente il tizio che dipingeva la gente come se fosse investita da un camion ed in seguito gli fosse passato sopra un rullo compattatore ed alla fine fossero sparati sulla tela con una cannonata?) ma di chi lo ha acquisito, dunque resta un opera di Picasso, ma non è più sua di proprietà.
Il Movimento 5 Stele resta una creazione di Beppe Grillo, ma non è di sua proprietà, ma di proprietà di chi si si candida nello spirito della sua piattaforma programma, e sopratutto di proprietà di chi gli vota, cioè TU!
E ora al lavoro! Andate e convincete la gente che se vogliono di meglio tocca rimboccarsi le maniche e votare M5S.
Il metodo e semplice ed e stato messo a punto da un famoso ricercatore di sociologia di oltre 2 millenni fa: Il Ribelle Gesù.
Consiste di due passi:
il primo e scritto nel Vangelo di Giovanni capitolo tredicesimo verso 34
" Un nuovo commando do a voi, che vi amiate l'unno l'altro..."
in quanto troppo oddio ha fato troppo male penso si ora di cambiare secondo colui che caccio a pedate i mercanti dal tempio, non che non se lo siano ripreso il tempio, anzi, stano su troni d'oro in Vaticano, ma penso che amorevolmente potremmo cacciarli via presto.
Il secondo passo richiede un po di olio di gomito: Nel sedicesimo capitolo del vangelo secondo Marco, versi 15 e 16 Gesù disse "Andate in tutto il mondo, predicate il Vangelo a tutti gli uomini, chi crede e sarà battezzato, sarà salvo..."
Traduzione moderna: Andate da tutti quelli che si astengono dal votare in quanto lo considerano inutile, fategli usare il cervello, e chi crede andrà a votare il M5S.
Il battesimo all'epoca era il simbolo del aver accettato una fede, ora a noi basterebbero i loro voti in piena coscienza di quello che stanno facendo, ma se volete comprargli anche un biglietto per andare in piscina, fate pure!
Metodo: mai e poi mai andare da loro a sputargli in faccia la verità.
Pensate a loro come a dei poveri schiavi in una miniera profonda e mal illuminata, tu vai li, afferì lo schiavo per i capelli (e già questo gli fa male) lo trascini al sole per fargli vedere che esiste, e gli fai guardare il mondo a meta giornata sotto il sole splendente, cosa vedrà?
NULLA, sarà accecato, gli lacrimeranno gli occhi e gli faranno un male cane, ti ucciderà pur di liberarsi e poter tornare nella miniera, al sicuro!
Ma se tu vai li e lo porti fuori di notte, sicuramente ne vedrà parecchio di più poi gli spieghi che se ha un attimo di pazienza esiste pure il giorno, cosi i suoi occhi faranno in tempo ad abituarsi alla luce.
e chiedigli se per favore potrebbero darti una mano a portare in carica TIZIO che tu consoci bene (e datevi da fare a conoscere di persona i vostri candidati) perché amico tuo e vale la pena aiutarlo.
Vedrete che sarà interessato su chi è sto amico, cosa fa, dove abita, che idee ha, ma se arriva su non farà pure lui come gli altri? e via dicendo, poi puntando il dito verso quello che succede ora, piano piano ci arriveranno loro alla luce, non occorre trascinargli per i capelli.
E quando saranno convinti, date pure loro da leggere questo testo, magari si rimboccano le maniche e vanno a fare qualcosa.
Promozione personale, uno ad uno, siamo al 20% del voti, se ognuno ne convince altre 2 persone... faremmo 60%, dunque armatevi di griglia, bottiglia e pazienza, e cenate due volte o tre in compagnia che male non vi farà!
