When You Don't Need to Tip

annatimone Posted 1 Nov.  in #Miss Dukascopy 2013 #Money #Tip #Party #Service #Tipping #Restaurants #Fee
Tipping for good service is important, but make sure you don’t get duped. For some, this could happen while staying at a hotel or eating out at a restaurant — and the mistake is surprisingly common.
Think back to the last time you ordered room service. Did you offer a tip on top of your total?
If so, you probably gave a very generous 30% to 40% tip. That’s because in many hotels an automatic base gratuity of 18% to 20% is often included with room service — even if there's a space to add it on th…

I have the vision of "no tip", nor do I accept to negotiate a price.
the service or product has a price, you great guta; do not purchase like other cheaper.

More than anything, we’re crowd followers

I was reading an interesting article on what researchers are learning from big data on how shoppers behave. Buying and selling in financial markets isn’t much different from the grocery store in many ways so there are plenty of lessons to take away. This one, in particular, was striking. Many generic drugs are identical to name-brand medicine so it’s a great place to study why consumers prefer one over the other. The main theory was that people didn’t understand that Aspirin is just acetylsalic…

I will not go into the technical issue of the research drug vs generic drug, I focus on the herding behavior of human beings, the example that we bring is equal to panic in trading.

7 Unexpected Ways to Improve Your Life!

annatimone Posted 17 Oct.  in #Miss Dukascopy 2013 #Trading #Money #Market #Diet #Health #Life #People #Body
As someone who has recently starting seeing a massage therapist more often than her own family, I can personally attest to the dangers of being a professional sitter. Yes, I already knew I needed to stand up more, but is sadly harder to put into practice than it should be-but what other habits can you put into place for a longer, healthier life? So, here it is: 7 Unexpected Ways to Improve Your Life!

1. Lower your bedroom temperature: Even if it's not the most comfortable thing to do…

Relationship Dealbreakers! Is it love or money ?

annatimone Posted 9 Oct.  in #Miss Dukascopy 2013 #Money #Love #Relationship #Deal Breakers #Finances
The next time someone approaches you in a bar and asks for your digits, they may not be after your phone number. For those seeking a soul mate, the following financial dealbreakers may surprise you.
Low Credit Score
According to a new study, about 30% of women and 20% of men surveyed won’t marry someone with a bad score. Because credit scores are proving more important these days, singles are ever concerned that their partner’s low score could negatively impact their ability to buy a home or car…

Love/Money? The Best is Yet to Come! Task 13

annatimone Posted 29 Aug.  in #Miss Dukascopy 2013 #Money #Life #Family #Love #Task 13 #Success #Career #Path
For love or for money? To be honest with you, when I was small I was dreaming of becoming an astronaut. So, that doesn’t answer the question… Obviously, I didn’t become an astronaut, but it was a wonderful and unusual childhood dream. Back to reality, right now I’m on a path to building both, career and personal life. My professional life or I guess financial independence is very important to me. I don’t see anything wrong with enjoying and taking pride in making money. As long as …

Absolutely! Women face a lot of pressure these days. As you said, we have to be everything and at the same time project happiness and not show any stress. I think pressure was taken off men and put more on women. And that’s why you see a lot more quality women than men. It’s not easy. But it looks like you managing it well..:)

Top 5 Tips for Becoming a Successful Entrepreneur

annatimone Posted 20 Aug.  in #Miss Dukascopy 2013 #Trend #Money #Entrepreneur #Tips #Bloomberg #Rich #Risk #Successful
I came across tips given by a billionaire and New York City Mayor, Michael Bloomberg, for becoming a successful entrepreneur. I thought I would share them with you whether you own a business, climbing a corporate ladder or trying to find your path in life. Michael Bloomberg shares his own experience: 1. Take risks. Life is too short to spend your time avoiding failure. In 1981, at the age of 39, I was fired from the only full-time job I'd ever had - a job I loved. But I never let myself lo…

Task 11 - Changing the World

annatimone Posted 17 Aug.  in #Miss Dukascopy 2013 #Trend #Money #Business #Life #Entrepreneur #World #Success #Task 11 #Global
To me, being an entrepreneur means being in control of your destiny. It’s creatively defining your own life and happiness through business and partnerships. It’s not following anyone else’s footsteps and standards, but creating your own road for others to follow. It means not settling for anything average and not accepting another's definition of success for your life. You choose instead to define, and then pursue your own success. Being entrepreneur means realizing that if you don’t control yo…

I completely agree with you, Nadia. That’s why most businesses fail within first 5 years. Most people are not prepared for tremendous challenges that new business brings. Success in business comes with heavy price. Do you have your own business?
