We all like to think we live in a world where nothing bad ever happens. Up until 9/11, there had been occasional events the government called home-grown terrorist attacks. You may remember Ted Kaczynski who achieved notoriety as the Unabomber, sending out bombs through the mail for some twenty years, and Timothy McVeigh who was responsible for the greatest loss of life through the Oklahoma City Bombing. These are rare individuals who become unhappy with the way things are and resort to extreme measures. This was a containable risk until Al-Qaeda highjacked four airplanes and crashed three of them into high-visibility targets. We might have considered this outrage a unique event but, for a variety of political reasons, America has continued military actions abroad. All informed sources have confirmed that these actions only act as a tool to recruit terrorist groups no matter what opinion you have on the overseas actions. For now, their retaliation has been against troops or targets based abroad. But we would be foolish if we ignore the risk of direct action on our soil.

Following the 9/11 attack, President Bush pushed through the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act. This puts federal money on the line until 2014. By this time, the private insurance industry is supposed to come up with a proper framework to support the risk of loss and damage caused by terrorists anywhere within our borders. Until then, the Treasury acts as a reinsurer and, if the Secretary of the Treasury certifies losses caused by terrorism, it pays 90c in the dollar of every claim approved by private insurers. And, just so you understand the value of this back-up, no commercial insurance company can refuse to insure a business against terrorist risks. It’s your right to be covered at an affordable rate. A formal complaint can be made and a fine issued to the insurance company should the company refuse.

Why should you consider this? You may have noticed that things are not going so well in Afghanistan. Some of our soldiers have failed to live up to our high expectations of honor. There has been a public burning of the Koran. A soldier recently decided to kill a few local Afghans for fun. This does nothing to improve America’s reputation with the Moslem world and everything to encourage extreme groups to retaliate.

So far, they have aimed their anger at the troops and other soft targets abroad. But there may come a time when they decide to come to America. So if you run a business that might be a target or your business premises are close to a likely target, you should talk to your health insurance agent. In countries where, over the decades, terrorism has been fairly common this type of insurance has been standard and you should remind your agent of this if there appears to be any problems. So, for example, Pool Re was set up in 1993 to reinsure the market as the IRA continued its bombing campaign on British soil. It now offers reinsurance cover for France and Spain as well. The German government offers direct support like the US. Your business insurance company should tell you US risks are priced as a percentage of your property value. Since these values have been falling because of the recession, terrorism insurance is more affordable.

Myriad opportunities exist that can lead to cheap car insurance. People like saving money on auto insurance. To legally drive in most areas, you must be insured. Many individuals simply renew their policy year after year. This is not a good way to get cheap rates. Instead, review these rate factors that can help you get reduced premiums

Age

As drivers age, they become more experienced drivers which reduces the likelihood they will become involved in accidents. Insurance companies like these drivers. Of course, not all drivers meet this expectation. However, those that do can see progressively lower premiums each successive year.

Gender

Female drivers have proven to be safer drivers. As a result, they tend to get lower rates than their male counterparts. There is little you can do about your gender, but you can make sure you get the appropriate reductions so your rates are the lowest possible.

Location

Where you live and work can impact your rates. Working in high crime neighborhoods or high accident areas can inflate your rates. One solution is to carpool with someone and leave your car at home. You can also park your car in a safe place and take public transportation into other areas. When you are at home protect your vehicle by placing it in the garage.

Driving Habits

Your driving record greatly influences your premiums. A clean record suggests you have safe driving habits including keeping a distance between you and other cars. You know how to drive in inclement weather. And you always follow seat belt laws and obey traffic signals. The more you do of this, the better driver you will be and you can earn lower rates.

Credit History

Maintaining a good credit score can lower insurance premiums. You present yourself to be responsible and have sufficient resources not to submit claims for every dent or scratch inflicted on your vehicle. Cars get damaged all the time from being nicked in parking lots to being hit by gravel when driving. Some customers want their insurance to reimburse them for each of these instances. But it takes money to process claims which insurance companies want to avoid.

Vehicle Safety

Insurance companies want you do everything feasible to protect your vehicle. Installing an alarm or anti-theft device on your car can result in cheap car insurance. These are some of the ways you can get cheap car insurance.

Annuity taxation is fairly straightforward at first glance. Taxes are deferred on annuity income as long as it remains in the plan. Eventually, however, monies in an annuity plan are taxed, so when, exactly, does annuity taxation occur?

Deferred Annuities:

Deferred annuities have an accumulation phase and a distribution phase. Earnings grow on a tax-free basis throughout the years of the accumulation phase. In the distribution phase, payouts from these funds are made, either as a series of regular payments over a specific period of time or as a one-time, lump sum payment. Regardless of the form of the payout, some income taxes will be imposed on every annuity payment the owner of the plan (the annuitant) receives from it.

Lump sum payments incur income taxes on the difference between the amount that has been paid into the plan and the value at the time it is paid out, or distributed. If you take your distributions as a series of regular payments, part of each payment is viewed as a return of your previously taxed investment, and part is treated as earnings. Income taxes are owed on the earnings portion. The portion that is not subject to taxation is determined via an exclusion ratio (your investment amount divided by the total amount you expect to get during the distribution period).

Taxation of a Lump Sum Distribution:

If you invested $200,000 in an annuity, and it grows to $450,000 by the time you retire, and you take that total as a lump sum distribution, you owe taxes on the $250,000 your annuity has earned since your initial investment. This is taxed as ordinary income determined by the tax rates in effect when you take the payment. No capital gains tax break is available in this case.

Taxation of Periodic Annuity Payouts:

If you invest $100,000 in a fixed annuity that pays $750 each month for your lifetime, beginning at age 62, you will receive the payments for 22.5 years, according to the life expectancy tables used by the Internal Revenue Service. This means your annuity contract is valued at $202,500. The exclusion ratio is 49.4 percent, so you can exclude $4,446 of the $9,000 total you’d receive over a year from your income. Ordinary income taxes are imposed on the remaining amount.

Taxation of Variable Annuities:

Taxation of variable annuities takes into account the fact that you do not know how much an annuity payment will be every month because the value of your investment will change as the market changes. In this case, exclusions are determine by dividing the investment by the period of time you expect to receive the annuity.

Did you know that somewhere around 50% of all websites have one or more of the following problems?

* typing errors

* spelling mistakes

* grammatical problems

* punctuation problems.

Wow! A whopping 50%!

Hard to believe??

No, I don’t think it is.

In my daily business life I briefly skim or read anywhere up to hundreds of web pages, brochures, flyers, business cards and emails per day.

I’m lucky – I’ve got a *proofreader’s eye* [I'll give it back soon - haha] which means that mistakes like those mentioned above just JUMP OFF THE PAGE and draw my attention to them.

I can’t help myself – I’m a wordsmith, a lover of words, and despite all those years at school with my eyes rolling back in my head with boredom during the English class, the information somehow seeped into my brain and it stuck.

Now I’m one of those people who wants to correct the mistakes on restaurant menus, much to the horror of my friends and biz associates. I used to carry a red pen [to make corrections...:o>] but I’ve been banned from doing that.

How many times have I seen this doozy, in print, on websites and on big signs and billboards outside stores:

*For all your stationary needs, visit Blahblahblah Company!*

See how they spelt *stationAry*, with an *a*??

Don’t they know this means *standing still, not moving* when spelt this way??

Obviously not. So how to remember HOW to spell it? I have a little saying which I learnt as a child:

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

E is for ENVELOPE.

A is for APPLE.

StationEry with an E for Envelope.

StationAry with an A for Apple.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

The thinking behind this is that an apple sits still, so therefore is *stationAry*, and an Envelope is one piece of *stationEry* with an E. For more info, visit my website and click the link for Stationery.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

YOUR / YOU’RE / YORE

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

If you want to say, *Your shoes are lovely.*, use YOUR.

If you want to say, *You’re late!!*, use YOU’RE, which is the shortened version of YOU ARE.

If you want to talk about historical times, you might say, *In days of yore, there were no motor vehicles.*, and use YORE.

COMMON BOOBOOS ONLINE TODAY!

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

1. I see this one all the time, and spotted this on a top affiliate website:

==> One of the biggest mistakes I see affiliates making everyday is that **their** building a short-term business

The word **their** in the sentence above is used incorrectly.

It SHOULD be written as **they’re**, which is the shortened version of **they are**.

* * * * * * * * *

2. On a recruitment site I spotted the following:

==> Currently we have a number of temporary **vacancy’s**.

WRONG! No need for an apostrophe in the sentence above!

The word **vacancy’s** should be written as **vacancies**, which is the plural form of the word vacancy.

To put an apostrophe at the end of the word and add an *s* means you want to show ownership of something… so ask yourself, *What do the vacancies OWN?*. Of course they own zip, nada, nothing… so DON’T use an apostrophe here.

* * * * * * * * *

3. On the same recruitment site I spotted this:

==> If you happen to be a Secretary or Administrator with 3-5+ years of experience and **your** looking to make your next move…

The word **your** in the sentence above is used incorrectly.
It SHOULD be written as **you’re**, which is the shortened version of **you are**.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

The key to avoiding these glaring errors is as follows:

* admit you might be tired or you might have read your text too many times to be able to notice any problems

* admit that spelling and grammar might not be your best skills

* acknowledge that you want your text, document, website etc to be the BEST IT CAN BE

* ask one or more friends or associates to read the text for you – reading something with a fresh *eye* can quickly spot mistakes

* * * * * * * * *

What’s the BIGGEST
PROOFREADING BOOBOO?

People proofread the small print,
the regular text and FORGET to
proof the MAJOR HEADINGS.

* * * * * * * * *

What should be proofread?

* business cards – I wish I had a dollar for every one I’ve seen with a typo on it

* contracts

* documents

* letters

* website content

* website links [quite often a typo will send a visitor into cyberspace]

* a series of autoresponders, or email course

* newsletters – online AND offline

* ebooks, especially as these will be around for many many years to come

* any document which will reflect on you or your business, in any way.

* * * * * * * * *

WHAT’S WORSE
THAN MAKING
TYPOS & ERRORS?

Not being able to see
them in the first place.

* * * * * * * * *

COULD THIS BE YOU?

You’ve launched your website, you’ve done a great job… and you didn’t ask anyone to help you proofread your site, just to give you an opinion. You’re wondering why you’re not getting any clients, and no-one is signing up for your newsletter. What on earth could be the problem? Ahhhhhhh… some kind soul finally emails you to tell you they were offended by a phrase on your home page. Yikes! This could have been avoided!!

Sometimes when we work on something for such a long time, we are immune to it in many ways – when we read over text again and again, we can’t see the mistakes.

Let someone with a fresh eye do this for you.

* * * * * * * * *

STOP mistakes BEFORE
they are a problem

* * * * * * * * *

Unproofed websites
show unprofessional
regard. Don’t get
caught out – ask
someone to proof
your site today!

* * * * * * * * *

The main thing to understand is that not everyone is great at everything. You’re probably great at selling your product or service – that doesn’t mean you have to be great at proofreading too.

Let someone else do that for you – whether it’s a friend, business associate or professional proofreader, do yourself a favor and let your words BE THE BEST THAT THEY CAN BE.
