There are many different online businesses that you can start but most of them come down to three broad categories which are: selling products or services to retail customers, selling on eBay, and business-to-business selling.

If you decide that you want to sell on eBay, you’ll want to find a wholesale distributor of products where you can buy your products at a great discount. If you already work within the business-to-business forum, this will be an easy transition for you.

In a week when much attention has been paid to the issue of eco-homes, including the public backing given to them by ex-deputy prime minister John Prescott at the Chartered Institute of Housing’s south-east annual conference and exhibition in Brighton, the question of building and house prices in the country has reared its head again.
For those looking to ensure that rural areas are well stocked with affordable, as well as green homes, this is a great opportunity. Gideon Amos, chief executive of the Town and Country Planning Association, said: “The eco-towns initiative provides the opportunity to marry the social need for more affordable housing and community infrastructure with the environmental and economic issues associated with housing growth, such as sustainable public transport, protection of biodiversity and low and zero-carbon energy provision.”
Yet such lofty ideals appear to be lost on some. Today the Campaign to Protect Rural England (CPRE) released the results of a survey on public views about the government’s housing plans. The poll, conducted by ICM, found people to be apparently split down the middle on the issue of government housing plans. 53 per cent were against the plan to build three million new homes by 2020. 46 per cent thought such developments would have a negative impact on communities and 50 per cent believed that landowners and developers would be the principal beneficiaries of such plans.
Another finding of the survey revealed clearer support, with 77 percent believing a higher priority should be given to bringing unoccupied homes back into use, while half also thought more concentration on brownfield building should be undertaken. Read the rest of this entry »

2008 marks the first year when 78 million baby-boomers born between 1946 to 1964 start retiring. This is the first time in the US history that there is so many people who will be eligible for AARP membership. As a result, federal spending on retirement and healthcare –Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security will increase dramatically. So how will this affect you when it’s your turn to retire and what should you do now? Since it has never happened before, you don’t have the benefits of learning from the history. You just have to rely on analysis, projections of experts, paying attention to all the red flags you have seen along the way, and sometimes just your own common sense. Let’s look at the big picture from 30,000 feet:

1. Uncle Sam is currently spending about $1.30 for every tax dollar he collects. As of March 2008, the US national debt is $9.38 trillion dollars or about $30,894 per citizen. Per the Government Accountability Office (GAO) this kind of fiscal policy is unsustainable. However, it does not take a rocket scientist to come up with that conclusion. Just try to do that with your checking account!
2. Government spending on health care alone could double by 2017 to more than 2 trillion dollars a year as a result of baby boom generation retiring and rising costs of drugs & medical expenses. Americans are also living longer. As they get older, they also have more medical problems: high blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, Alzheimer (one out of eight baby-boomers will get it), and cancers. And medicines baby boomers need are very expensive. For example, a year’s supply of Avastin to treat colorectal cancer associated with old age costs $55,000. Read the rest of this entry »
