The Up-Comers - The 3rd Billion Will Influence All the Rest
| |
|
The financial community and the industry love to talk about big numbers like a billion. Especially when they're talking about people who are standing in line to spend money. For years we've classified BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India, China) as the growing billion everyone had to begin targeting their products/services to so they could grow profitably. But suddenly that billion look like they are buying the PC/CE/communications products/services as rapidly as they can afford (ok so that doesn't say much right now). So we need to seek out our next prospective market.
In a number of countries they have literally been right under our nose...yes women who have previously been viewed as "second class" citizens are asserting themselves and taking their lives, their future in their own hands. |

Virtual world calls for virtual money
| |
| Money - or lack of it - causes the most stress for individuals and family problems. But since we're now dealing in a near virtual world let's simply go to mobile device money and do away with the billfold that's either half full or half empty.
Ironically, people in third-world countries have been faster to convert to mobile money than those in industrial countries. The challenges? Infrastructure and security. Someone always wants to spoil the party but the transition is underway.

Storage is All About Performance ... Plus
| |
| Semiconductor media (commonly called flash or SSD) delivers all the speed, performance consumers want and demand...at a price. The alternative to keep pace with people's thirst for more and more content is hard drive storage...lots and lots of hard drive storage. Content continues to be produced, distributed, mashed up, viewed, enjoyed, stored. The cloud isn't the answer because ultimately content comes to rest in someone's huge storage facility (endless rows of drives) and bad guys come in and borrow the informaiton they want/need for their "business." Keeping a good balance between flash speed and hard drive capacity requires practice...lots and lots of practice.

The spirit of the 21st century is partly about laying to rest the ghosts of the 20th century
| |
| My Grandparents did not foresee spaceships, computers, cell phones or the Internet.
My Grandparents would not have foreseen the scale of population growth either. When my Grandfathers were entering their teenage years in 1911 there was under 2 billion people on earth. Now just 100 years later there is around 7 billion! 2 billion was sustainable. 7 billion is not, let alone the 10 billion predicted for 2050. Today around a third of the world’s people live in poverty.
We made great and arguably unprecedented progress in the 20th century. So far we have failed to manage the associated risks and in many ways we are like a runaway train running out of track very quickly.
We must change our ways before it is too late. |

Wall Street Got $1.2 Trillion From Fed
| |
| Fed Chairman Ben S. Bernanke’s unprecedented effort to keep the economy from plunging into depression included lending banks and other companies as much as $1.2 trillion of public money, about the same amount U.S. homeowners currently owe on 6.5 million delinquent and foreclosed mortgages. The largest borrower, Morgan Stanley (MS), got as much as $107.3 billion, while Citigroup took $99.5 billion and Bank of America $91.4 billion, according to a Bloomberg News compilation of data obtained through Freedom of Information Act requests, months of litigation and an act of Congress. These are all whopping numbers,” said Robert Litan, a former Justice Department official who in the 1990s served on a commission probing the causes of the savings and loan crisis. |
