Buy Argricultural ETF; Symbol: MOO

2008-02-15T16:07:00.000-05:00

I usually do not feel comfortable recommending random stocks, but I have a sure bet feeling on this one. According to the Wall Street Journal Friday on the front page.. this is the "golden age for agriculture"; Therefore, I recommend highly based on prior knowledge and the seemingly apparent good buy of agriculture; ETF SYMBOL: MOO

Read more about MOO below;

"Exchange traded fund (ETF) provider Van Eck recently launched its Market Vectors Agribusiness ETF (MOO), which encompasses the global agriculture market. It tracks the DAX Agribusiness Index and has a 0.65% expense ratio. MOO holds 40 companies that trade on 13 exchanges worldwide. Companies must be worth at least $150 million to be included in the ETF, reports Index Universe Staff. The U.S. makes up the most of MOO at 55% followed by Canada at 9.3%. Holdings in the ETF include agriculture chemicals at 34%, agriproduct operations at 33.5%, agriculture equipment at 24.3%, livestock operations at 5.6% and ethanol/biodiesel at 2.3%.

Ethanol's popularity as a new energy source and high wheat prices because of the short supply are a couple of factors that could give this ETF a strong start. Another helpful factor is that MOO is the first ETF to invest directly in agricultural companies. Its only competition comes from the futures contracts-based ETF, PowerShares DB Agriculture Fund (DBA)." -- ETFTRENDS.com

Wine Investing, Get Better Returns Than The Stock Market

2008-02-13T12:34:00.001-05:00

Start purchasing wine and storing it for the long term. If you do a simple search on Google for investment wines, you'll see numerous links to learning about the literal "art" of wine investing. Wine investing over the long-term can of course lose your original principle but most of the time if selected and stored carefully can give you returns of 100's of percent.

Click here for exclusive Wine Storage places all over the US.

Click here for a list of brokers to negotiate your prices on the delicacies.

Also, see below images for how original wine investments turned even sweeter given a little time:

1982 Bordeaux

The 1982 vintage is described as 'exceptional' throughout Bordeaux and is the vintage of 80s. The wines are now mature.

Table 1: 1982 Vintage First Growth Bordeaux. Price Per Bottle in USD between June 2001 and June 2006

1997 Bordeaux

The 1997 vintage was, again, an abundant crop. This vintage has been quicker to mature, and is of lesser quality, than others. Many of the wines will be past their best within 10 years. Prices at release were high and the market reacted strongly - by not buying the wines.

Trade Currency Over The Internet, Make A Good ROI!

2008-02-12T13:29:00.000-05:00

This is again not meant to be a get rich quick scheme or some sketchy sh*t like that.. this is simply another idea of ours to make money over the long term with some practice. Try Forex. Forex is the exchange of foreign currency for the purposes of making a return. There are many different Forex websites out there, and all of them give you the option of a practice account for sole backtesting and idea generation purposes. This allows you to understand what Forex is and how to make a return on currency exchange before blowing your hard earned pocket dollars on something that doesn't make sense.

Here are some trusted Forex sites that we would endorse as 100 percent safe;

Forex.com (biggest Forex site)

ACM Forex (based on Switzerland)

We always opt never to make a commission of you signing up for the sites we recommend so please feel safe trying out these sites. We promise that we solely want to help people like us find investment and shopping advice.

Here is a better description of Forex from Forex.com:

Introduction to the Forex Market

The Foreign Exchange market, also referred to as the "Forex" or "FX" market is the largest financial market in the world, with a daily average turnover of US$3.2 trillion.

"Foreign Exchange" is the simultaneous buying of one currency and selling of another. Currencies are traded in pairs, for example Euro/US Dollar (EUR/USD) or US Dollar/Japanese Yen (USD/JPY).

There are two reasons to buy and sell currencies. About 5% of daily turnover is from companies and governments that buy or sell products and services in a foreign country or must convert profits made in foreign currencies into their domestic currency. The other 95% is trading for profit, or speculation.

For speculators, we believe the best trading opportunities are with the most commonly traded (and therefore most liquid) currencies, called "the Majors." Today, more than 85% of all daily transactions involve trading of the Majors, which include the US Dollar, Japanese Yen, Euro, British Pound, Swiss Franc, Canadian Dollar and Australian Dollar.

A true 24-hour market from Sunday 5:00 PM ET to Friday 5:00PM ET, Forex trading begins each day in Sydney, and moves around the globe as the business day begins in each financial center, first to Tokyo, London, and New York. Unlike any other financial market, investors can respond to currency fluctuations caused by economic, social and political events at the time they occur - day or night.

The FX market is considered an Over The Counter (OTC) or 'interbank/interdealer' market, due to the fact that transactions are conducted between two counterparts over the telephone or via an electronic network. Trading is not centralized on an exchange, as with the stock and futures markets.

So you can travel the world with full mobile voice and data coverage, without having to change smartphones, phone numbers or email addresses.

The Best Multi-Function Printer Ever!

2008-02-12T09:32:00.000-05:00

The woman I work for (very successful) is constantly printing, faxing, etc, etc.. So, one day I suggested to her that she should get a laserjet instead of an inkjet because they are faster and the printed results feel better to the touch, etc.

Anyways this printer is amazing, and now it's even on sale at www.superwarehouse.com for only $773.99, which considering the features of this printer, is nothing. It is a full office printer. You can use it in a large or small office, or at home:

Get all the effortless function and impressive performance you need in a business tool with the new Brother MFC-9840CDW. This color laser multifunction machine performs the jobs of a printer, scanner, copier, and fax at one station. Network-ready, with ethernet and USB connectivity, this model is easy to install and use. It offers up to 21 ppm in both black/white and color with a print resolution of 2400 x 600 dpi. An optical scan resolution of 1200 x 2400 dpi ensures that your scans are clear and sharp, without missing a detail. A 300 sheet paper capacity (with an optional 500 sheet tray addition) and 50 sheet-capacity ADF allows you to get projects done faster, so you don't spend all your time refilling the paper tray. In addition, the MFC-9840CDW has a USB Direct interface that provides compatibility with PictBridge enabled cameras and USB memory drives. You get precise, powerful laser printing, plus the convenience of scanning, copying, and faxing with one machine.

2008-02-11T14:44:00.001-05:00

For many years I have been reselling "hosting" (the storage space needed for domain names and websites)...

Carleton Island Villa

2008-02-10T21:54:00.001-05:00

Carleton Villa is one of the great gilded age mansions. Located in the very private but beautiful thousand islands on the st lawrence between canada and new york this statley mansion is one of kind. Though in disrepair currently, it is a property with great investment potential. On the market for $495,000 it offers he owner privacy and history. The broker New Yorks Great Estates offered a property in similar shape with a similar history for a round the same price 2 years ago. That property called the Sanger Estate was purchased renovated and is currently on the market for over 2.5 million. Nice return for only 1 1/2 years work.

Travel at Obscenely Low Prices This Weekend!

2008-02-10T14:53:00.000-05:00

We stumbled across this website.. LastMinute.com.. And what they do is offer you a combo package for hotel and flights anywhere domestically or internationally. The site is built on the premise that if the hotels and airlines need occupancy so you can travel to places like Aruba on a legit airline like American or Delta and stay in one of the nicest resorts in the area for 1000 bucks a person.

If this seems like too much of an expense try Colorado for a few hundred dollars including hotel and flight roundtrip.

This site has ridiculously low priced travel. Try it out.. Comment back if you find it useful.

What We Would Do With Your Money

2008-02-07T14:38:00.000-05:00

We (Jesse and Cody) have decided that while going to design school, why not help people spend money and invest money. The ideology behind this is comprised from Jesse's crazy fashion marketing background and Cody's intense personal investing achievements. One day we were just talking on the phone and thought Jesse loves money and Cody loves money and Jesse loves fashion and Cody loves the stock market, so, why not help people spend money and make money. Therefore, we are going to give you the most ridiculous ideas on what we would do with your money.
