Download or read book The Investor s Creed written by Dr. Lamin T Kamara and published by America Star Books. This book was released on 2013-04-23 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The capability to distinguish blueprints, tendencies, and significant trade procedures is a first nature to becoming a part of the world’s best trading associates—in respective to this, you need to be trained to see these blueprints through careful explanation, real-world examples as mentioned in this book, and a lot of many other examples. Today’s business market is constantly changing every day. As you begin your hunt for the perfect business, consider starting close to the New York Stock Market, the Stock Market or the World Trade Center itself. For instance, if you're currently employed by a small business you like, find out whether the present owner would consider selling it. Or, ask some business associates and friends who are already buying and selling stocks for leads on similar businesses that may be on the market. Many of the best business opportunities surface by word of mouth or you can check the bulletin—and are snapped up before their owners ever list them for sale. Other avenues to explore include newspaper or online ads, trade associations, real estate brokers, and business suppliers. Finally, there are business brokers—people who earn a commission from business owners who need help finding buyers. It's fine to use a broker to help locate a business opportunity, but it's foolish to rely on a broker—who doesn't make a commission until a sale is made—for advice about the quality of a business or the fairness of its selling price.

Download or read book Ghost Work written by Mary L. Gray and published by Eamon Dolan Books. This book was released on 2019 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A startling exposé of the invisible human workforce that powers the web--and how to bring it out of the shadows. Hidden beneath the surface of the internet, a new, stark reality is looming--one that cuts to the very heart of our endless debates about the impact of AI. Anthropologist Mary L. Gray and computer scientist Siddharth Suri unveil how the services we use from companies like Amazon, Google, Microsoft, and Uber can only function smoothly thanks to the judgment and experience of a vast human labor force that is kept deliberately concealed. The people who do 'ghost work' make the internet seem smart. They perform high-tech, on-demand piecework: flagging X-rated content, proofreading, transcribing audio, confirming identities, captioning video, and much more. The shameful truth is that no labor laws protect them or even acknowledge their existence. They often earn less than legal minimums for traditional work, they have no health benefits, and they can be fired at any time for any reason, or for no reason at all. An estimated 8 percent of Americans have worked in this 'ghost economy,' and that number is growing every day. In this unprecedented investigation, Gray and Suri make the case that robots will never completely eliminate 'ghost work' and the unchecked quest for artificial intelligence could spark catastrophic work conditions if not stopped in its tracks. Ultimately, they show how this essential type of work can create opportunity--rather than misery--for those who do it."--Dust jacket.

This book was released on 2019-03-07 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered how much money the virtual assistants (VA) make & what type of jobs they typically do? If so, you are not alone. This is one of the rapidly growing industries with tons of work outsourced by small to big companies. Even the solopreneurs are taking this as a profession.As a VA, you can make money by working from anywhere across the world. So long as you have an Internet connection and a Smartphone or a computer, you can work as a VA. I wish I had written this book back in the year 2017 when one of my friends was struggling to make good money as a VA so that he could have a smooth transition being a VA. But now he and many other VAs are making more than $3000/month+ and are traveling all around the world, living a digital nomad life.Hi, my name is Abhi and Co-Founder & CEO of a Facebook specialized advertising company Digital Pexel, I hire VAs for almost all of my work, like data entry, email response, appointment scheduling and more and I was VA even before my journey of entrepreneurship has started. Most of the companies out there hire a VA for both short-term & long-term projects and you can encash this opportunity. If all of this sounds exciting to you, then read on because I've got a lot more to train you on. So you might be wondering that all this sounds good, but who exactly is a virtual assistant (VA)? A virtual assistant (typically abbreviated to VA, also called a virtual office assistant) is a person who provides support services to other businesses from a remote location and provides professional, administrative, technical, or creative (social) assistance to the clients remotely from home or own office and not from the client's location.It's a win-win situation for both you and your clients, as you being a VA can charge variable pricing from client to client depending on your skills and client's project. Whereas the client is also benefited from virtual assistants as VAs are independent contractors rather than employees. Clients are not responsible for any employee-related taxes, insurance or benefits, except in the context that those indirect expenses are included in the VAs fees. These days, clients also avoid the logistical problem of providing extra office space, equipment or supplies. Clients pay for 100% productive work and can work with virtual assistants individually, or in multi-VA firms to meet their exact needs. What does a Virtual Assistant Do?You might be thinking that it sounds great to me but does a VA actually do? The answer is pretty simple; anything that is done online can be done by a VA. A VA can do anything that's done by support except bringing a coffee;)If you are excited to know more purchase this book, which you will help become a perfect VA and earns some real money as VA.
