Professional Beggars

10:06 PM Admin

Thailand's beggars has revealed a business built on children trafficked from Cambodia and Burma, who make nothing from their takings and are sometimes beaten. The brokers get the children from poor families in the border regions by buying, renting or kidnapping them. Hundreds of these children have been rescued and rehabilitated. Before a child is sent home, non-government organisations and the ministry evaluate the family first to ensure the families will not sell the children again. In July 2005, the Royal Thai Police set up a division focused on protection of children and women, and the division's commander has said the child beggars will be treated as victims and not as criminals.

A new snapshot of the begging trade in Bangkok shows a business built on children trafficked from Cambodia and Burma who never profit personally from their lucrative daily takings and are sometimes beaten to make them objects of greater pity.

No one can say how many children are begging in the Thai capital but the three-month survey of the trade earlier this year shows children aged from three months to 10 years are working long hours in tourist destinations and busy business precincts. A handler sits close by in a small business, perhaps selling flowers, and regularly collecting the cash.

The findings are set out in a report released with the International Labour Organisation, "Child Beggar Business - Investigating Children in the Beggar Business."

The survey, during which researchers observed the beggars at four central Bangkok locations for three months, proved that it was a business, not normal begging.

It is a lucrative trade, with children making between 500 baht ($15.80) and 3000 baht a day for their brokers. They receive only basic food and accommodation. A shop assistant earns 6000 baht a month.

The survey showed old women carrying very young children or babies, one old woman with a different child each day or the same children with a different mother. Rarely did the children speak Thai: most of them came from Cambodia or Burma. The brokers got the children from poor families in the border regions by buying, renting or kidnapping them.

Within this regime's framework the rate of one currency to another is defining only by the supply and demand on the market.

Courses in Currency Trading

There are many courses in currency trading and we offer one on this site but what makes a good currency trading course? Let’s have a look at some key elements that a course should contain to help you get the right forex education and achieve long term currency trading success.

Firstly look for realism, don’t be deceived by people telling you that you can make a fortune with no effort – you can’t. If you want to get a course in currency trading then it is up to you to learn the logic, understand it, have confidence in it and apply it with discipline, to lead you to long term success.

Here are some points to be aware of when buying a currency trading course.

1. Beware of courses that Claim Scientific Accuracy

There are many courses that will tell you they can trade with scientific accuracy - but they can’t. If there was a scientific theory of market movement, there would actually be no market, as we would all know the price in advance.

Forex trading is a game of odds - NOT certainties and any system can lose money in the short term, that simply the reality of trading.

2. Beware of courses that Use Far Out Theories

The king of these is Fibonacci and trading Fibonacci retracements.

The Fibonacci number sequence has nothing to do with trading and if Leonardo Fibonacci were around today (he died in the thirteenth century) he would probably be bemused at the way financial traders have hijacked his theory and applied it to trading.

The theory was originally used to solve a problem to do with the copulation of rabbits and has nothing to do with finance.

Traders present it as a scientific theory for trading but it is anything but – if it were scientific the retracements would work every time and they don’t they work some of the time but you can pick any retracement percentage you like and it will work some the time – but that’s not scientific!

Other similar theories are Gann and Elliot wave, both claim to be scientific but are not – leave them to the far out crowd and dreamers.

3. Beware of The Track Record

Anyone can make up any track record and many vendors do!

Be cautious when you see one that looks to good to be true, as it will normally be accompanied by the following disclaimer or a similar one, read it carefully:

"CFTC RULE 4.41 - Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not been executed, the results may have under-or-over compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profit or losses similar to those shown".

If a vendor puts this disclaimer on a track record, they can simulate anything they want in hindsight knowing the closing prices. Of course doing this is a lot easier than trading for real and not knowing what they are!

4. Beware of Courses that Promise Regular Income

How on earth can you promise a regular income from a market that’s so un-predictable?

Not even the best currency trading systems win all the time and all will have periods of drawdown and losses furthermore, you can never anticipate how long they will last.

Over the longer term a soundly based forex trading strategy should make money - but in shorter time frames anything can happen

5. Beware of Day Trading and Scalping Courses

Forex day trading and scalping is simply one of the best ways to wipeout your account equity. Volatility in short term time frames is random, support and resistance levels are meaningless and you can’t get the odds in your favor – period.

If you ever see a day trading system that produces a track record of gains look for the disclaimer we have highlighted in point 3.

Avoid day trading systems!

6. Beware of Courses with No Satisfaction Guarantee

Any currency trading course will make claims and give you the benefits it thinks it will give you and that’s fair enough – but the vendor is asking you to believe these claims and you therefore should have a right to have your money back, if the course does not deliver what you expect.

You should look for a guarantee that offers to rebate your money in FULL with no penalties after a trial period should you not be satisfied.

Top 3 Business tips

4:04 AM Admin

Here are my top 3 business email etiquette tips that have worked well for me and many others:

#1 – Never flag business emails with “high priority”

If an email is important enough that it warrants “high priority” (i.e. that red exclamation point in most email programs), then it warrants a face-to-face conversation, phone call, or urgent voicemail.
Don’t “drop bombs” in email by sending high priority messages. Just seek out the people you are sending the message to and talk to them.

#2 – Never use BCC in business emails

If you need someone to see an email you sent, forward it to them from your sent items. Never use BCC – if people ever find out that you use it, they will likely never trust your email conversations again.
Since the reader of a BCC email can “reply to all” they can easily “reveal” that they are on the email.

#3 – Make your emails easy to read

Most people are dealing with an email “avalanche” every single day. Create messages that are easy to scan, and don’t take a lot of effort to read.
Keep your emails as concise as possible. Write it, and then try to cut it in half!
Bulleted lists are your friend – use bulleted lists (which are easy to scan) whenever possible. If you are sending messages to Blackberry users, you can use an * (i.e. shift plus the number eight) as a bullet. Try to limit your use of long paragraphs of copy.
If you are using formatting in your emails, use black text for normal content. Use red text for eye-catching, must-read content (and bad news). Use green text for good news.
