I heard a story about 100%. Some shady figure asked the Vatican banker about some money for 100%. He got 2 millions. 6 months later paid 4 million back. After a while the banker comes visiting:do you need some money? Oh yes there is a very big opportunity but we need… Continue

By Thomas H. Greco, Jr
Published by: Chelsea Green Publishing, White River Junction, Vermont, USA (www.chelseagreen.com), 2009. ISBN 978-1-60358-078-6
Thomas Greco is the most radical writer on money today. The very title of the book suggests that the future of civilization depends on abandoning money-as-we-know-it. What could be more radical and revolutionary than that? Yet on readin… Continue

Introducing COGS
COGS stands for Circle of Gifts, and is a complementary currency specifically designed to help local communities re-localise activities. The aim of re-localisation is to provide inhabitants with the possibility of an acceptable quality of life when traditional economic development fails, or their circumstances are against them.
We believe complementary currencies will become more important as energy supplies dwindle and impact the economic growth so essential for inter… Continue

I always get annoyed when something goes wrong on the computer but it's not even a dog, it's only a machine and I don't know enough how it works. Example : My comment from 7.9. When I was that far it disappeared, had a blank screen. I searched for it. It was in a temporary storage which I don't know how to access. So I started again, not using the same words. Now I can see that the second attempt did not get sent, probably is still in temporary storage.
Yes you should see a bit more of the world and whilst you do that you could find your future. Australia? No if you want to learn, yes if you have enough money and only want the right papers.There is an outfit called "doctors without borders". They are looking for volunteers. If you work with them for a while they can help you with learning and you learn a lot on the job. You also could try china. They are already the biggest power on earth and are growing very fast. They might take you for your language skills.
Glad to read from you....Ok you can shorten my name and call me Ade..that quite simple just three letters...ok. Hope your computer is working well now..
well, am still seriously searching for a (MSc) Master scholarship programme outside Africa, either in Europe, Australia or US. I think schooling in developed countries" outside Africa will widen my knowledge and broaden my spectrum and horizon and will help me contribute positively to developement in Africa . Can't wait to get a scholarship or even a good volonteer job. What do you think Alois?
Forgot that I promised to write more. Have lots of trouble with the computer. Got my first one twenty years ago - 250 mega bites. Used it for programming a milling machine.Could not do much else. This one is no 5. Has 74.5 giga bytes
what a mouth full. Can we make that shorter?Where I was born in southern Germany nobody would call me Alois. That's much too long.They would simply call me Lois. Thanks for writing again. I see you declare we are friends. I'm not sure about that for in halve your e-mails you call me "Sir".I would only call my enemies "Sir" but don't know any so I never use the word. You also seem to think you have to show the elderly respect. With that you are very wrong. The mess you inherit was created by may grandfathers generation and by my fathers, mine and even my sons.We all thought we did our best but with hindsight I see we were fools.
I had much more written but lost it and now I'm tired. will write more soon. .... Alois
Thank you for your reply. I appreciate your elderly words and i sincerely gain one or two words from each mail you send me. As it is in African proverb " That you can only learn when listening to elders words" , so i keep learning from you all the time i read from you.
Well, am still on my Youth service, i still have few months to go and right now am seriously searching for a (MSc) Master scholarship programme outside Africa, either in Europe, Australia or US. I think schooling in developed countries" outside Africa will widen my knowledge and broaden my spectrum and horizon and will help me contribute positively to developement in Africa and underdeveloped world. Can't wait to get a scholarship or even a good volonteer job. What do you think sir?
Am deeply sorry for not replying your mail for days....i was posted for compulsory National Youth Service Corps here in my country, Nigeria. National Youth Service Corps is a compulsory service for first degree graduate in my country, so i have no access to internet there. i will surely mail you more soon, am just getting back to the city now.
Hope you have a good health. i will mail you more later.
Have a nice day.

Sorry for not replying for days , my internet was so poor...just got it fixed today...internet is not at it best here.
Sorry again, about your heart / health problem...i hope you are recovering quickly.
Yes, you are right people that push hard to be in politics do so to benefit from corruption and embezzle public funds.
I think there are two types of corruption which depends on the level of developement of a country...in third world country here we experience outright corruption ''illegit corruption'' where public fund were transfered outrightly by politicians to there private use without litle or no questions.
While in developed countries, Big bribe were paid by ''crook capitalist'' to lobby and amend the laws of the land to suit themselves and there private company, this is called in quote ''Legit corruption''.
The different between the two above is that the former, in third world or underdeveloped countries public funds are embezzle by politicains "civil servants'' while in developed countries private funds were injected to public offices (legislators) to lobby and change the laws to suit the powerful capitalst.
But what i know is that corruption slow down developement weather from public to private or private to public...whats your opinion?

Ray
Birth control can be put in place by re-educating people about the danger of having children they can't cater for and this is common among the poor, research shows that rich people have less children .
Am very intrested in this discussion and as you have said, yes! i have my working life in front of me...i hope i can touch more and more lives positively as i progress. write soon.
Humble Regards,
Ray
