Determine your current financial situation

This is like taking a snapshot of our financial situation, to take stock of all the goods we possess, from resources that would normally get and the assets we have acquired and are likely to be converted into cash. Also consider all debts and commitments to make us owners of such property, this debt we are and therefore we should pay.

The need to organize the economy as justice, respect for the human and natural resources is no longer a question of moral or political opinion, is an imperative that requires us to do our part.

This possibility derives not from rights guaranteed by law but the will to live responsibly in the everyday.
The consumer is the last link in the economic system and as such has the responsibility and the power to change the status to which we are led by the media.

The manifestations of social and environmental crisis on the planet are obvious:

every day we find examples around us or in the media of unfair distribution of wealth and increasing poverty or the effects that the current unsustainable development is for nature.

There are innumerable examples ranging from migration, to deforestation and desertification, through the exploitation of labor (especially women and children) or the greenhouse effect.

We live in a society that promotes consumerism, we have become the throwaway generation. Advertising bombards us with ads whose goal is not to our wellbeing, but us cogs in a system that reduces people to consumers submissive.

In times of crisis rampant fear.

It talks about the crisis on television, radio, newspapers and magazine much there. This type of highly technical information generally exceeds the knowledge of the common man who purchase insurance.

Surely the vast majority of customers do not understand that much impact on his life, Dow Jones and the Tokyo Stock Exchange. But listen collapsing markets and just hearing the word makes him fear collapse.

Collapse is a word that has a very strong negative connotation. What crushes collapses. That being crushed does not sound very good.

Fear causes people to act very cautiously.

Perhaps with a wrong approach to take precautionary wrong decision.

In this climate of mistrust and fear is very welcome anyone who gets over fear and is presented as an alternative to improve. Read the rest of this entry →
