The first baby boomer applying for social security, and the balance of tax-paying workers to Social Security recipients, has shifted severely since the end of Word War II.

Quote from the October 15, 2007 edition of ABC Nightly News with Charles Gibson:

"At the end of World War II, there were 44 workers paying Social Security taxes for every retiree collecting from the program. Now the ratio is just three workers for every one retiree. And soon there will be more retirees than workers."

Scary?

A few years ago, did you have an image of strolling down the beach, care-free, as the waves lapped at your feet? 
Or, maybe it was yourself and a loved one discovering some far off place together, finally fulfilling the lifelong dream of traveling the world…
Or perhaps you saw yourself at a big retirement ceremony… all your coworkers congratulating you on your graduation into the “good life” of retirement?

Was it anything close to those images?

If so, that’s great... You are in the very small minority of baby boomers who feel “optimistic” about their futures. For the rest, the thought of pleasure activities and lifelong dreams immediately brings up the familiar image of a question mark in front of a dollar sign.

Nick Marks, arguably the most accomplished internet marketer on the web today, has written a report showing you, step-by-step, how to tap into an endless stream of money... and how to have a great time doing it. You do not need to be a baby boomer to make these tactics work for you. There are people of all ages and backgrounds making a whole lot of money on the Internet. However, Nick says his book was written with boomers in mind for 2 reasons:

"1. I hear from baby boomers all the time who are very frightened about their futures, and I know this guide can help put an end to that fear because I’ve seen it happen for people.
2. Because anyone who has been walking the earth between 43 and 61 years is almost certain to possess a key ingredient to success when marketing online"

Success versus Failure

A sermon recently expounded the value of failure not as failure itself, but as a means of growing one's sense of self worth and moving towards new experiences.

Failure does not mean that one has failed in life's
work, but is just a measure of how much more one has to
do in life. If one task is not successfully completed,
it does not mean that one is a failure.

There are many reasons why a task fails.

The analogy given was with Moses who successfully led
the Israelites out of Egypt through the desert and
established the ten commandments as a rule of life.
However, Moses, at the moment of success and fulfillment of the
work he was assigned by God, was denied
entry into the Promised Land. Was his life a failure?
Perhaps. It depends on which side of the fence you
reside.

Had Moses led them into the Promised Land, his job would
have been over, he would have succeeded, but then what
would he have done?

So, too, is the concept of failure misleading in today's
frenetic world, full of businesses closing and going
bust. It was never the intention of the owners of those
companies to go bust. They put every fiber of their
being into making them successful. But circumstances
sometimes deny the fruition of the best laid plans, and
failure occurs.

It is not a reflection on the failure itself, because it
is a time to re-group, re-focus, and re-align oneself
with a new vision, a new purpose and a belief that a new
path will appear so one may grow and mature.

It is neither a reflection of success itself , because
once you have achieved what you set out to do, what
further vision do you have? You cannot rest if you have
achieved everything. There should always be something
more that one can focus on.

The point of the sermon is that if one does not fail,
one will not grow and have a sense of value in life.

Growth is not measured in stature and material things.

It is measured in life's lessons.
It is measured in humility.
It is measured in one's ability to grow.
It is measured in visions and the ability to act upon
them and bring them to fruition, even if you yourself
ultimately fail in the end.

Failure is a hard lesson to learn. It brings on
depression, a feeling of low self worth. The success in
life is overcoming these hard knocks, rising above them,
bringing new and fresh ideas to the table.

But one thing I know... acknowledging failure and
walking away from it is a most liberating feeling.

It lifts the angst and anxiety and helps you deal with
moving forward to the next chapter in your life.

Ah, the hard lessons of life.

Lea singing Castle in the Clouds

My grandchild, Lea Donenberg aged 10, singing "Castle on a Cloud" from Les Miserables.

A wise person thinks before telling what "they heard"

Craig Garber, who is "King of Copy", sent the following story that he received from Christian Godefroy.

In ancient Greece, Socrates was reputed to hold knowledge in high esteem. One day an acquaintance met the great philosopher and said, "Do you know what I just heard about your friend?"

"Hold on a minute," Socrates replied. "Before telling me anything, I'd like you to pass a little test. It's called the Triple Filter Test."

"Triple filter?"

"That's right," Socrates continued. "Before you talk to me about my friend, it might be a good idea to take a moment and filter what you're going to say. That's why I call it the triple filter test.

The first filter is Truth. Have you made absolutely sure that what you are about to tell me is true?"

"No," the man said, "Actually I just heard about it and..."

"All right," said Socrates. "So you don't really know if it's true or not. Now let's try the second filter, the filter of goodness. Is what you are about to tell me about my friend something good?"

"No, on the contrary..."

"So," Socrates continued, "You want to tell me something bad about him, but you're not certain it's true. You may still pass the test though, because there's one filter left:
the filter of usefulness. Is what you want to tell me about my friend going to be useful to me?"

"No, not really."

"Well," concluded Socrates, "If what you want to tell me is neither true nor good nor even useful, then why tell it to me at all?"

How often have we thoughtlessly passed on a story about which we are not sure, don't really know exactly what the circumstances are, nor do we think of the ramifications that a carelessly told rumor could cause.

Integrity in one's personal life should also be the cornerstone of one's business career, whether you are an entrepreneur, small business owner, or an employee of a company. It is no greater when you are a member of a corporation with a lot of back-stabbing. You will have a greater reputation as an honest person and good person with whom to do business than one who cuts corners, and is even slightly deceitful, dishonest or mean.

Advantages of Refinancing a Mortgage

by Betty Parker

There are a number of reasons why we need to refinance. The requirements of home improvement, college education or just reducing the monthly mortgage payment are some of them. You have to locate a refinancing company that provides you the most suitable rate while you opt to refinance your existing mortgage. Prior to refinancing, it is prudent that you carry out comparison shopping.

At a time when college education is getting much costlier, going for mortgage refinancing is becoming a common trend. Everybody wishes to send his child to college for higher education and become established in life. This is one of the reasons why people refinance their mortgages. There are various options for refinancing and getting professional advices from a mortgage loan expert would help you determine which option is right for you.

One more reason why people select refinancing is to reduce the mortgage interest rate and monthly mortgage payments. This lets them breathe a sigh of relief while preparing to make payments for their mortgages. If you opt for refinancing, it is a means to receive money to carry out your home improvements as well.

A quite common reason for mortgage refinancing is debt consolidation. You can repay your piled up debts like outstanding medical bills and credit card debts. This motive might become more common in the days to come with the new law for bankruptcy soon to come into existence. It eliminates creditor harassment which is truly painful while managing debts and nobody wishes to carry on with the bills they are unable to repay. Therefore, resorting to refinance to get rid of these bills is a sensible measure. This would assist you to better your credit rating.

You might not be worried about any of the reasons mentioned above and perhaps are planning to go on a holiday trip that you have been waiting for a long time. You can go for refinancing provided it is advantageous for you and you would not face any troubles in repaying it.

No matter what your reason is, there would be competition among the lenders to provide you refinancing. Shop around online or contact various lenders and make comparisons between the refinance quotes offered by them. In this way, you might get the most reasonable quote that you have been searching for
