What is Real Money

I've been updating some pages on my web site like Quotes About Money, and Gold and Silver Terms. Doing so the subject of real money keeps occurring. What is real money? Do you know? Is it the federal reserve notes in your pocket? No, those are instruments of indebtedness. For every one issued we citizens owe interest to the Federal Reserve and the world bankers.

Real money has been gold and silver since 500 B.C. Today in the United States they are not classified as real money by the U.S. Government, but in the real world they can easily be exchanged for more and more federal reserve notes every day.

The constitution says only the congress can coin money. According to that only precious metals can be real money.

Small Business people Victims of the Recession

I was out looking for a few furnishings for my office today. As I went around town it struck me that there were far fewer of the used furniture stores in Sarasota, than in previous years.

In their place, are many more charity stores like Goodwill, and Habitat for Humanity. These are all worthwhile charities, but they do put even more pressure on small business retailers. Now Goodwill has bookstores here. They also have opened a store that is like an art gallery of used paintings and wall furnishings.

In the past small business's biggest enemies were the price clubs like Sams Club and Costco. In small towns the enemy of independent business was Wal-Mart.

Of course now Uncle Sam is trying to muscle in and nationalize business. That must be stopped!!!

If you're a small business person and feel like an endangered species; You are.

I'm doing it - My new Gold Buying Business

It's been quite a ride over the last few years. I have started several part time, and full time businesses without finding my new niche. Around the end of November 2010 I found Greg the Honest Gold Guy in Prescott as I was surfing You Tube.

I was intrigued by his approach to the gold and silver buying business. Particularly so, as I felt that there were a lot of crooks in the industry. This bothered me as I knew times were hard. People deserve to get a fair deal. I signed up for Greg's Scrap Gold Business School shortly after deciding I would like to be the Honest Gold Guy of Sarasota.

Things have been progressing. I started studying the Gold and silver buying business, started my web site, sent in my licensing application, and leased a location at a busy intersection. Now I am chasing down all the details as I prepare to open up by late February.

If you're in Sarasota and want to sell gold or silver, please contact me to get a fast fair, and honest price for your gold or silver.

What a Year - 2010 So Far

Well, 2010 has been quite a year so far, I was fired from my Self Storage Manager job. i could rant on about my supervisors, but will simply stop there.

Obama and the congress have hijacked our financial system. Many are saying they're 'hell bent" on bankrupting the country.

I received an email yesterday that St. Louis, Mo. had to lay off several police officers. There is a lot of lawlessness expected there. I imagine that will lead to a run on the gun stores in St. Louis. To me, that is a good thing that every man is armed as it makes home invasions a riskier proposition for any criminal.

"The great object is, that every man be armed. [...] Every one who is able may have a gun." -- Patrick Henry, speech of June 14 1788

"An armed man is a citizen. An unarmed man is a subject." -- Unknown Author

O.K. The good news is sfter searching through various ideas for months, I decided to start a new business in the advertising field. It will be a great service for new residents here in Sarasota, Fl. The business is Sarasota Welcome Service

Jobs in Florida - Familar Signs

What jobs? I do have good news. My daughter who was laid off, is working 3 days a week.

My wife and I went out of town for a week. When we returned she went to work and was laid off. Most every family I know has been going through this. Even the small business owners are feeling the pinch.

Tomorrow 1,500 people here locally lose their jobs due to GM and Chrysler dealerships closing. We've lost a lot of small business people here.

It's getting so you should call a restaurant before driving over to make sure they're still open.

Here's to the survivors!
