The 7 Characteristics of Rich People
The 7 Characteristics of Rich People [rich people money]
Have you ever wondered why rich people seem to get richer easily while those in the poverty cycle seem destined to be stuck there forever? The reason is simple. You need to think and act like a rich person first before you can really be rich. Let's take a look at some of the characteristics of rich people.
1. No limited self belief
Rich people believe they are destined to be rich and there is nothing that can stop them from achieving that financial freedom goal. They will do whatever necessary to reach their goals including doing things that they dislike or taking on tasks that seem impossible to complete.
2. Recognize the importance of time
Rich people also recognize that time is their most important asset and a very scarce resource. They do not waste their precious time sitting in front of a TV watching soap operas or other entertainment programs like "Survivors." They also know how to use the power of leverage to achieve maximum results with minimum efforts. [rich people money]
3. Seek out other people of higher social status
Many poor people only network with other people that are of the same status as them. They do not actively seek out other people who are wealthier. The rich people will do the opposite. They want to network and learn from others who are better and wealthier.
4. Expense as investment
To many poor people, the best way to manage money is to use less of it. However, rich people have a different viewpoint. To them, many expenses can be viewed as investments. By spending a certain amount of their money to acquire an asset or skill, they know they will get back what they spent in the future.
5. Strong self-confidence
Many rich people exhibit a high level of self-confidence that is often contagious. They are optimists and maintain a positive outlook at all times. Their confidence is not easily shaken by external factors.
6. Good money habits
While saving is a good virtue and habit, many rich people feel that it is not the best way to grow your money. Rich people will put a significant portion of their wealth in some kind of investment vehicles that give them a better ROI than a normal saving account. They also do not spend their money aimlessly buying things that have no real value such as lottery tickets.
7. Philanthropy
Many rich people are also great philanthropists. They frequently make charitable donations intended to increase human well being. A great example is Bill Gates who set up his own charitable foundation aimed at providing lifesaving health care products for the poorest part of the world. [rich people money]
Most rich people did not become wealthy overnight. They faced many setbacks and challenges to get to where they are today. To them, setbacks and challenges provide valuable lessons that help them find the way to great wealth as well as strengthen their ability to faced adversities in life.

Does God Want Us to be Rich?
Does God Want Us to be Rich? [rich get money]
Does God want us to be rich? Does being wealthy prevent us from going to Heaven?
In Matthew 19:24, Jesus states, "And again I say unto you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God". This is repeated in Mark 10:25.
Luke 16:19-31 tells the story of Lazarus and the rich man. Lazarus, the beggar died and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom, while the rich man ended in torment.
On the surface, this seems to indicate that God does not look favorably on the wealthy. But how do we know where the line is drawn between securing our future and becoming rich? [rich get money]
We must remember that there are several rich, yet righteous men throughout the Bible.
Job was a rich man, blessed by God in many ways until Satan was allowed to test him.
Satan took everything he had and killed his children, yet Job remained righteous.
Once again, God allowed Satan to test Job by covering him with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown.
All that Job had was gone, except his wife, who promptly urged Job to "curse God and die". How is that for support? Obviously Satan left her behind for a reason.
Yet, in the end, Job remained righteous and loyal to God. He also showed great compassion by praying for his three friends, Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite, who had not spoken of God the thing that is right (Job 42:8).
God rewarded Job by blessing him with twice as much as he had before. He was blessed with seven sons and three daughters and lived another 140 years. [rich get money]
So what does all this mean? Does God want us to be rich? When Jesus spoke of the camel going through the eye of a needle, was he suddenly changing the rules?
Not at all. Jesus knew that money meant power and that power corrupts even good people.
Bill Gates is one of the wealthiest, if not the wealthiest person in the world. Yet he regularly gives millions of dollars to worthy causes every year. This doesn't mean he is going to Heaven, but it is a step in the right direction.
But for every Bill Gates in the world, there are many Scrooges, who never think twice of cheating the poor to pad their own bank accounts.
It is not wealth that condemns a person, it is what they do with it.
If you are one of the lucky people who have wealth, consider this. Do you own your wealth or does it own you?

Smoothie operators
Kyle and Aaron Campos, 27 and 33
Buckeye, Ariz.
Lesson: If you must borrow from your friends and family, keep it formal
The downside of mixing business with blood should be obvious - or at least it will be when you start getting late-night calls from Aunt Tillie asking about your schedule for an IPO. But hitting up relatives is how a lot of businesses get going. It's what Kyle Campos and his older brother Aaron had to do.
In 2004 the brothers, both software engineers, quit their jobs in Santa Barbara and decamped to Buckeye, Ariz. After visiting relatives there earlier that year, Kyle had become convinced that the town was "filled with wide-open opportunities," especially compared with the software biz. "The tech sector was getting hit hard," says Aaron. "I didn't have a good feeling."
Aaron and Kyle, neither of whom had run a business before, began brainstorming about starting one together. Both had frequented a smoothie joint in Santa Barbara, and they fell in love with the idea of starting their own. They found an industry consultant online who helped them write a business plan. Then they hired an experienced designer. The Main Squeeze would be a 1,200-square-foot store with hardwood floors and stainless-steel tables. And it would cost more than the $130,000 they had saved.
That's when they drew up a list of 40 friends and relatives they could solicit as investors. "We wanted it to seem like we were offering them an authentic business opportunity," notes Kyle. For that they turned to CircleLending, a site that helps informal borrowers create formal lending deals. The siblings spent $99 to set up a loan agreement, choosing an attractive interest rate (9%), a repayment schedule they figured they could afford (either five or seven years) and a $1,000 minimum. Four folks each lent them $1,000, and another four each threw in $5,000. Last year the Campos brothers whipped up a profitable $210,000 in sales, and they've been paying their investors on schedule for close to two years. Says Kyle: "Not one has complained."

Leaked Images of New 3rd Gen iPod nano?
Leaked Images of New 3rd Gen iPod nano?
UPDATE: Here is a supposed image of the “iPod touch”.
We just got a couple of images sent to us from an anonymous source who claims that this is the new iPod nano that we can expect Steve Jobs to announce at the Apple Special Event taking place this Wednesday, September 5th. Since we’ve seen so many photoshop mockups floating around the Internet recently, we are not saying these are the real deal by any stretch of the imagination - however, we love how these look, and a guy can dream, can’t he?
I guess we will see how it all pans out on Wednesday. We have another image of the supposed new nano after the break.

Xing Bao N98 uses Nokia NSeries naming scheme, iPhone?s look and feel
If it wasn’t for the name and the “familiar” look, the Xing Bao N98 would be an interesting device. Similarly to the Samsung UpStage, this Chinese phone sports two screens — one on the front and the other on the back of the device. The front part is reserved for the huge 3″ touchscreen, while the back has the good ol’ physical keypad, kinda smallish 1.2″ display and Apple logo.
Other specs include Bluetooth, handwriting input support, 1.3 MP camera, dual-band GSM radio, and of course the microSD slot. As you may’ve expected, this ugly baby costs like next to nothing and you can pick it up for $180 on your next trip to China…

Sony rolls out two iPod shelf systems
Sony has introduced two new Made for iPod shelf systems featuring integrated iPod docks and Bluetooth connectivity. The CMT-BX20i and CMT-BX50BTi systems feature gloss black finishes and florescent displays. The iPod menu and system features can be accessed with the remote control, while the system charges the device. “We are continuing to evolve our shelf system offerings to reflect consumer listening habits,” said Andrew Sivori, director of personal audio marketing in the Digital Audio and Imaging Division at Sony Electronics. “With the addition of iPod docks to most models, along with a bolder, more dramatic offering in our Muteki line, there’s a Sony shelf system for just about everyone.” The CMT-BX20i system offers a front-loading optical drive with support for CD-R, CD-RW and MP3 Playback, along with an audio-in jack and a bass reflex speaker system with 50 watts of total power. Other features include an AM/FM tuner with 30 station presets, Dynamic Sound Generator X-tra sound processing, and a remote control. The CMT-BX20i micro shelf system will be available in February for about $130. The CMT-BX50BTi system offers all of the features of the CMT-BX20i system, plus Bluetooth A2DP technology to wirelessly stream CD-quality music to other Bluetooth devices like Bluetooth-enabled headphones, PCs, digital music players and cell phones.

ZAP to show ‘Made for iPod’ electric car at Expo
ZAP to show ‘Made for iPod’ electric car at Expo
Electric car manufacturer ZAP has announced plans to show a “Made for iPod” car next week at Macworld Expo in San Francisco. The company said it will be designing its cars to include a head unit made for the iPod that will play music through the car speaker system as well as recharge using the ZAP Recharge-It-All made for iPod battery system. The first cars equipped with this technology are expected to be available later this year, and ZAP says it has plans to include the technology in all its cars. “Apple is making some of the most popular consumer products on the market today,” said ZAP CEO Steve Schneider. “A ZAP electric car made for iPod joins an important trend happening throughout the automotive industry to give car-buyers more amenities. So many bring their iPods with them wherever they go that having the capability to listen to and recharge them in your car can only attract more customers.” Previously, the company had announced that it will debut its new iZAP line of iPod mobile rechargers at the show. According to the company, the line will use “advanced lithium battery storage and charge control technology to power or boost the battery life of the iPod.”

Can Navizon survive Google?s location mapping in iPhone v1.1.3?
Can Navizon survive Google?s location mapping in iPhone v1.1.3?
As the iPhone gets more and more comfortable with itself as the “gotta-have” gadget of 2007, nay 2008, the Apple handset just keeps getting better with time. Firmware upon firmware, the iPhone keeps adding more usability and functionality at the click of a (”Sync”) button.
The next iPhone firmware release, previously rumored and now widely documented as the v1.1.3 firmware version, touts Google’s new location-based “My Location” mapping feature built into the Google Maps application. There are other cool features included in the v1.1.3 firmware, but we’re just going to talk about the location-mapping aspect of Google Maps.
Until now, the only way to get cell-tower triangulated positional data (we like to call it faux-GPS) on your iPhone was through a third party application called Navizon. The application is incredibly handy and was recently updated to give directions from your current (approximate) location and keep in touch with friends (the “Buddy” feature). And, in the face of Google’s recent “My Location” announcement, Navizon launched a “Lite” (read: free) version to keep up. Well, now that the new Google “My Location” feature is ready to prime-time with the next iPhone update, we have to wonder what Navizon is doing to keep up.
So, we went to our little birdie to get more info on what to expect from Navizon in the future and it looks promising.
Navizon already offers (for free) the same type of cell-tower triangulation technology upon which Google?s ?My Location? features relies. But, if you need even more accuracy (close to that of GPS positioning) Navizon offers a premium upgrade that leverages WiFi hotspot-positioning to help you get an even more accurate location-information.
But, that?s not all. We can?t exactly tell you what (at least not yet), but Navizon will be offering even more unique and exciting features in the near future. Fear not, Navizon fans, Google?s ?My Location? (likely) integration in the� next iPhone firmware update will not be the end of your favorite little location-information application.
Keep an eye out for more Navizon updates soon!

Altec Lansing T612 speakers work with the iPhone
Altec Lansing T612 speakers work with the iPhone
Altec Lansing T612 are the new speakers from the Plantronics-owned company that officially work with the iPhone and other new-generation iPod models. Unlike Altec’s other iPod-only speaker systems, the T612 is primarily made to work with Apple’s handset, hence it features incoming call support - allowing users to actually hear the iPhone ringing (music stops). Once the call is completed, the iPhone is re-docked in the T612 and the music resumes playing at the same song and place.
As for the specs, the T612 boasts “powerful neodymium speakers and XdB bass-enhancement technology,” as well as the standard auxiliary-in jack on the back for connection to older iPod models and other audio devices. In addition to the speaker, buyers also get a wireless remote for iPod song navigation functionality.
Altec Lansing T612 speakers will be available in February 2008 at Apple retailers for $199.95 (U.S. MSRP). In the meantime, you may want to see them live at Altec Lansing’s CES booth - South Hall 1, Booth #20913. Official release is available from here.
