Diamonds and Platinum Investments
I was discussing investment options with a friend of mine in terms of the current economic climate. The usual talk about gold and silver came up, but there was also talk about investing in diamonds and platinum. I find that interesting because they are not traditional storehouses of value but the truth is they do hold value and actually increase in value over time. That’s a good indicator of a good storehouse of value in uncertain economic times.
I guess I need to do more research on platinum and diamonds. Anybody have any great resources?
Personally Enriching Insurance
It seems like everyone who has bought a car in the last 10 years has included mechanical breakdown insurance in their purchase. It’s a good idea actually because you know that you won’t have unexpected expenses come up when you least expect it. That’s the whole point of insurance anyways, right? This kind of insurance actually seems more personally enriching than the other kinds, especially with my luck with cars.
New Or Used Office Furniture?
I don’t know if it’s me, but it seems like most office furniture is sold new these days. I was pondering this the other day and I came to conclusion that it’s because companies like to put their best foot forward when starting out or expanding. Additionally, office furniture lasts a long so it doesn’t really need replacing often. I also think there could be some tax benefits with going with new. Anyways, there you have it.
Did He Shoot Himself?
I have a buddy heading out to Pennsylvania next week. He’s got a girlfriend out there, but I think it’s kind of crazy for him to give up his good job with Intel just for some girl he met off the net. Needless to say, I was helping them over the last few nights to look for philadelphia pa jobs on the internet.
All I can do is help him find job leads, it’s up to him to actually get a job. I just hope he didn’t shoot himself in the foot by quitting.
Get A Quadband GSM Unlocked Phone Now
One of the first rules for international travelers is to keep good communication. With the recent earthquakes in Haiti and Chile, it’s pretty clear just how important good communication devices are. One of the best ways to keep communication easy and open wherever you go is to get an unlocked phone and make sure that it’s a quad band GSM. Don’t waste your time with expensive roaming when getting a new SIM on the ground is so easy. I’d start looking for an unlocked quadband right now, if I were you.
