Want to steal Warren Buffet's Stock Market Lesson Plans (Stocks)?

Why would you want to borrow a stock market lesson plan from someone else? Let me start by saying that a trading plan is only beneficial if you stick to it. Following your project will help you succeed, yet many traders ignore their carefully devised stock market lesson plans. Instead, they become so emotionally immersed in a trade that they disregard any warning indications. Remember that when the market corrects itself, which it always does, no position is exempt, no matter how vested your ego is in it. Many investors have stock market lesson plans in place, and they will continue to hold their positions even if their portfolio values are slashed in half. This is because they may be afraid of missing out on a big profit or being in such deep of a loss that they can't possibly sell at that time. However, even if you believe that all positions will return from their failures, which is unlikely, this is a lousy strategy to trade. When you invest too much money, your rate of return ...

ExchangeBuz.com | "Black Monday" and Cyber Santa Tips

 When I started writing this column in the fall of 1998, doing all of your holiday shopping online was considered quite daring and trendy. However, online shopping now accounts for a sizable portion of all retail commerce. Just as "Black Friday" after Thanksgiving brings many retail stores "into the black" financially, they've coined a name for one of the busiest shopping days online: "Black Monday!"

Black Monday or "Cyber Monday"  refers to the Monday after Thanksgiving when everyone goes back to work and does all their shopping online (presumably on their break -- yeah, right!)







Either they couldn't find what they wanted in a brick-and-mortar store over the weekend or, like me, couldn't stand the thought of standing in line for hours, so they shop online.


Since their workplace often carries the fastest Internet connection, many people find playing "Cyber Santa" at work too tempting to resist.


Despite a "sluggish economy," this past Black Monday should be the biggest on record, though the actual results may not get tallied for weeks.


However, if you intend to play "Cyber Santa" this year by making holiday purchases online, the following tips should assist the little online elves to make all your wishes come true. You can visit at www.exchangebuz.com for more information.


** Don't Procrastinate **

Don't put off placing your online orders until the last minute. Internet businesses operate similarly to mail-order enterprises. Human beings process your order, pull it out of inventory, pack it, and ship it to your address.


If a backup occurs, no amount of e-mailing or phone calls will cause your packages to arrive faster.


** Delivery Guarantees **

Find out what guarantees (in writing) the company makes regarding delivery.

If they don't guarantee delivery for two weeks and you didn't order until December 19, it doesn't take a computer science degree to figure out your order won't arrive on time.


** Return Policies **

Along with delivery guarantees, check the return policy. An unsecured credit card's interest rate.

Where and how do you return it?


Also, understand that if you buy something through an auction site like eBay, you risk defective merchandise with no hope for an exchange.


** Brick and Mortar **

Try to deal with companies that offer a "brick and mortar" operation to augment their online presence.

This comes in handy if you received a defective product or the wrong product and need a quick fix by visiting the store at the last minute to avoid tears on Christmas morning.


** Disaster Planning **

If something goes wrong, you can quickly recover by going to the mall and purchasing something else!

I bought 22 very cool gifts for out-of-town relatives and business associates with the click of a mouse yesterday!


This holiday season, I plan to do all of my shopping online to avoid losing my holiday spirit by fighting for a parking spot at the mall.


So remember, use common sense, buy from reputable merchants, and let your keyboard help you create a memorable holiday season.

Credit card for 0% APR credit cards | ExchangeBuz.com

Countless credit card providers gave 0% APR credit cards to many people during the days when federal bank interest rates were at their lowest, specifically in 2002 and 2003. Smart individuals could charge up to their credit limits without incurring monthly interest costs by just paying the outstanding balance. When these cards were at their pinnacle of popularity, some individuals wondered how credit card companies profited from this type of strategy. That's a great question! Let's take a look at 0% APR credit cards, how they function, and whether they're still available today. You might be shocked by the responses!  Fees for being late. You'd think that if customers had a credit card with a 0% APR, they'd always pay on time. Many people, on the other hand, do not. As a result, credit card companies would charge a late fee every time a payment was received late. The costs, which range from $19 to $39, can mount up quickly, especially if someone is frequently late. R...

"Penny Wise and Pound Foolish" is a phrase used to describe wise people with their money but foolishness.

When I was reading my Icon newsletter, this phrase came to me. JL was talking about topics that Chuck and I frequently discuss. While listening to Jim Edwards' audio newsletter a few weeks back, he ranted about "crazy freebie seekers" (I love that name). Jim is almost as good as Dennis Miller when it comes to ranting. Anyway, these two newsletters and what they had to say have been rolling around in my head for a couple of days now. What came to mind is that people who run Internet businesses from their homes are no different than those who ran businesses out of their homes in the 80s…..they don't want to pay for anything. You would think with all the failed companies they've had, it would dawn on them that it is because they have done no research, no business plan, and no determination on whether or not there is a market for their business in their vicinity. They don't make mission statements. I could go on and on. Unfortunately, too many people still think ...

"Online Credit Card Usage" - The Ultimate in Convenience

Online credit cards combine commerce and technology into a single package. Knowledge and communication barriers were broken with the introduction of the internet. With the internet came e-shops, or virtual shops that only existed online. You might shop at these stores and pay with your credit card over the internet. The goods were delivered to your home when the online credit card payments were validated and approved. This is what we mean when we say "ultimate convenience." Using a credit card online is becoming increasingly prevalent as more and more e-shops emerge every day. Accepting credit card payments over the internet has given shopping a whole new meaning. You may now buy these things not just from the comfort of your own home, but you can also save money. This is just amazing. You don't have to be concerned about the weather, traffic, or anything else. Instead, visit an e-store, select a product, pay using an online credit card, and wait for the products to come ...
