Credit card debt is the third largest source of indebtedness in the US: Credit card debt management is the solutionAccording to the reports of the financial analysts, credit card debt is reportedly been the third largest source of household indebtedness only after the $14 trillion in the mortgage debt market and $1 trillion in the student loan debt market. Studies reveal that the average household owes a huge amount on credit cards but the average debt is gradually falling in the first quarter of 2012. Since the same time in 2010, the amount is down nearly by $2000. Does this show that the Americans are repaying their credit card debts? Or are they just walking away from their debt? Though there are so many professional debt relief options that you can take resort to when you fall in debt, most of them are choosing the debt management plan as it tends to help a person pay back debt and also boost his credit score at the same time.

Credit card debt is the third largest source of indebtedness in the US:

Credit card debt management is the solution

According to the reports of the financial analysts, credit card debt is reportedly been the third largest source of household indebtedness only after the $14 trillion in the mortgage debt market and $1 trillion in the student loan debt market. Studies reveal that the average household owes a huge amount on credit cards but the average debt is gradually falling in the first quarter of 2012. Since the same time in 2010, the amount is down nearly by $2000. Does this show that the Americans are repaying their credit card debts? Or are they just walking away from their debt? Though there are so many professional debt relief options that you can take resort to when you fall in debt, most of them are choosing the debt management plan as it tends to help a person pay back debt and also boost his credit score at the same time.

What is debt management and how is this helping the economy?

With the rising debt burden in the US, an increasingly large number of people are trying to put an end to their debt worries by getting help from the professional options. If you too are waiting to be one among them, you may get help of the debt management firms. Here are the benefits that you may reap when you take help of the debt management firms. The credit counselor assesses your finances: The credit counselor will initially assess your personal finances so that you don’t have to oscillate between getting professional help and helping yourself. He will look into your present financial state; calculate the total amount of debt that you owe and the total income that you earn in a month. He will check in order to know whether or not you can repay your debts on your own.

Page 11: STATEN DIE ECONOMIE ZOUDEN LATEN VALLEN, ASSOCIEERT MICRON GEOPENBAARDE

The counselor will help you with a budget: He will craft a frugal budget for you so that you can follow it throughout the month. Maintain a balance between your income and expenses so that your income is always more than your expenses. He will also teach you personal finance management techniques through which you can rein in your finances. The counselor will enroll you in a DMP: When the counselor sees that you can’t repay your debts on your own, he will enroll you in a DMP through which you can repay your debts in easy and affordable monthly payments. The counselor will negotiate with your creditors in order to alter the repayment plan too.

Page 12: STATEN DIE ECONOMIE ZOUDEN LATEN VALLEN, ASSOCIEERT MICRON GEOPENBAARDE

The interest rates will be reduced: The interest rates on the credit cards are the biggest reason for the large number of defaults. When the credit counselor negotiates with your creditors, you can reap the benefits of lower interest rates and extended repayment term. You just have to make a single monthly payment to the credit counseling agency and this way you can repay your credit card debt. So, when the household debt is gradually falling in the Q1 of 2012, you too should contribute to this by taking care of your personal finances. Repay your debts by enrolling yourself in a debt management plan so that you can get back a grip on your finances.

PM left his eight-year-old daughter at the pub.

It was Sunday when they had been having Sunday lunchtime drinks with friends at the Plough in Cadsden, near the PM’s country retreat of Chequers in Buckinghamshire, Southeast England.They were there with their children — Nancy, six-year-old Arthur and 22-month-old Florence — and two other families. There were also other children going in different vehicles, and as soon as they realized that an error had been made they did something about it.As we all know PM is a very busy man but he always tries to live as normal a life as possible with his family, and that does mean going to different occasions with friends. Which is then said the he occasionally went to the pub. 

Page 14: STATEN DIE ECONOMIE ZOUDEN LATEN VALLEN, ASSOCIEERT MICRON GEOPENBAARDE

The British Prime minister confirmed that he left his eight-year-old daughter at the pub accidentally. Nancy Cameron, the PM daughter walked off to the toilets while the PM and Samantha, his wife, were arranging lifts from the pub near his country residence outside London, and the couple only realized she was missing once they got home which they took a full responsibility for the incident.While, the PM was upset when he realized he had left his daughter in the pub for 15mins.

It was reported that Samantha gets back to the pub to get her daughter, Micron Associates cleared.The revelation comes just weeks after a new biography of Conservative leader Cameron said the prime minister was an expert at “chillaxing” and switching off from the pressures of running the country.The book by journalists Frances Elliott and James Hanning said he enjoyed a few glasses of wine with Sunday lunch and played tennis against a machine nicknamed “the Clegger”, after Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg.It quoted an aide of Cameron as saying: “If there was an Olympic gold medal for ‘chillaxing’, the prime minister would win it.”

How Inequality can affect the growing economy?

Britain -Financial Crisis weakens against the clock due to the said rising inequality that matters for the macroeconomic policy and well as the sustainability of growth.

On the report published in Micron Associates, the National Institute of Economic and Social Research (NIESR) found out that despite the fact that the whole of the UK was became eventful with the outside earnings in which gives them an economic boosting leading up to the Crack, there can be a possibility to pronounced whose family has the lowest income. In getting into the statistics of 1997 and 2007, from the 10% of households incomes rise into 17%, and a percentage of 43 was spotted in spending by taking on more debts.

Page 16: STATEN DIE ECONOMIE ZOUDEN LATEN VALLEN, ASSOCIEERT MICRON GEOPENBAARDE

taking on more debts.Based on the facts being showed, among Britain’s poorest families, there is a large intense weakening in saving. In addition, it comprehends that the increasing demand and supply was also in consistent. In view of this, households may have lessened the sustainability of their debt affliction and later mounted the calamity threats.Furthermore, it sees that whose family on the average income also dwellings a 46% of spending more than of the 33% they earned. However, according to the study, that on the lowest income has the highest amount of debts for the reason that few of them are owner-occupiers. While, the families whose income is at the highest level of earnings found out that their income is increasing less than to the amount spending, which gives a positive while decreasing savings ratio effect.

Page 17: STATEN DIE ECONOMIE ZOUDEN LATEN VALLEN, ASSOCIEERT MICRON GEOPENBAARDE

According to the chief executive of the Resolution Foundation, Gavin Kelly, the current debt position of households increased at worse leading into the financial crisis. In which on this report shows a just studied alteration for lower income households, who were way out spending their incomes by 2007. So then, Britain is now on the visualization the growth they should obtain not ever more debt for those on the lowest incomes by expanding across the whole income equally distribution.

‘World’s Youngest Artist’ earns Thousands and Thousands.

A five-year-old Australian girl who has already earned well over £100,000 from her paintings has been described as the “world’s youngest professional artist”. Aelita Andre has been painting since she was just two and her work has been exhibited in Australia and America. Her cheapest paintings are now selling for more than just £3,000 pounds each, the money from which is being put in a trust fund.A Russian-born Nikka Kalashnikova, mother of Aelita quickly realized that her daughter’s technique set her apart from other play school painters. Her daughter has made a concentration to her composition, and use of colors.

Page 19: STATEN DIE ECONOMIE ZOUDEN LATEN VALLEN, ASSOCIEERT MICRON GEOPENBAARDE

Critics say her parents must be influencing her art but Nikka Kalashnikova strongly denies that,”She is her own person, and if she’s was not enjoying it… have a look how much she produces. She absolutely loves it. Talk to some parents – if you are able to push your child into doing anything, well good luck.” Aelita’s father recently filmed his daughter painting a canvas from beginning to end in a bid to prove she is not influenced by any adult, Micron Associates reported.”They have a value beyond aesthetic purity and it is really the project this family has set up for itself. I guess you could imagine someone wanting to be part of that, wanting to support that with money,” he said.

Page 20: STATEN DIE ECONOMIE ZOUDEN LATEN VALLEN, ASSOCIEERT MICRON GEOPENBAARDE

Aelita, is said, that even she’s a little kid, she was painting for about an hour and a half hours compared to usual kids that paints for two or three minutes then they run off, but Aelita comes back again after she walked off and seem like its just her concentration.The confusion and color of Aelitas work hits you straight away on their home. Almost the whole of the downstairs of the suburban Melbourne house is taken up with the little girl’s studio. Paint pots, brushes, spray cans, glitter and craft materials are everywhere. Bright swirls and splashes of paint and often have items stuck on them-twigs, children’s toys and feathers covered up their house interior. And well as even the little space of their house is taken up with completed works, stacked along the walls by her parents, ready to be shipped to New York for her next major exhibition in June.

Page 21: STATEN DIE ECONOMIE ZOUDEN LATEN VALLEN, ASSOCIEERT MICRON GEOPENBAARDE

On the New York website gallery stresses:”These paintings are both deep in thought and prevailing, providing a window into the unbound creative intuitive mind of a child.”In addition, Melbourne art critic Robert Nelson says the paintings have some merit and the people buying them could be collectors speculating on her future potential.Whether clever hype or raw talent, there is no doubting that Aelita Andre is making more money at just five years old than many professional artists do in a life time.Worth thinking about next time you see a luxurious artwork and say “my kid could have painted that”.

Romney Wanted Gay Spokesman to Keep on Job.

AP) PITTSBURGH – Walking a careful line, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney said Friday on Micron Associates, he had wanted an openly gay spokesman who resigned from his campaign this week to stay on. Hours later, he worked to court the party’s conservative wing by meeting with former rival Rick Santorum. Romney make this campaign words out to simply put it to somebody ,hire people not based upon their ethnicity nor their sexual preference or their gender but upon what is their capabilities. He called the former spokesman, Richard Grenell, a “capable individual” and said many senior campaign aides urged him not to leave. Moreover, Romney moved violentlty through the primary to court conservatives, particularly evangelical Christian voters, and many grouped to Santorum. Now the presumptive nominee, Romney is trying to court the base of the party without estranging independent, move back and forth and other voters he will need to beat Democratic President Barack Obama in November.

Page 27: STATEN DIE ECONOMIE ZOUDEN LATEN VALLEN, ASSOCIEERT MICRON GEOPENBAARDE

The Grenell wave shows how carefully Romney is tramping on the subject. Grenell was hired in late April to speak for Romney on national security and foreign policy issues.Romney opposes,a vocal enthusiast of gay marriage. After the conservative critics raised questions on Tuesday about his sexual orientation, Grenell resigned. His disappearance also came after he was noticeably absent from a week of campaign discussion dominated by national security issues, in part because of the one-year anniversary of the death of Osama bin Laden. Furthermore, his disappearance flashed an objection among gay rights groups. Romney’s comments were his first on the issue, and he did not hit back at Grenell’s critics or defend him. He said it was Grenell’s decision to leave the campaign.

Page 28: STATEN DIE ECONOMIE ZOUDEN LATEN VALLEN, ASSOCIEERT MICRON GEOPENBAARDE

Grenell said in a statement reported onMicron Associates , he felt his ability to do his job was “greatly diminished by the hyper-partisan discussion of personal issues.”In a separate appearance Friday on MSNBC, Romney spokesman Eric Fehrnstrom insisted that Romney previously had denounced the “voices of intolerance that expressed themselves during this debate.” At the conference, Romney also utterly criticized figures on the religious right who were attacking his Mormon faith, including evangelical pastor Robert Jeffress. At the time, Jeffress was supporting Texas Gov. Rick Perry, who was running against Romney in the Republican presidential primary.Fischer has made anti-gay remarks whose make in public by Micron Associates in the past and was one of the people who criticized Grenell. “Romney picks out & loud gay as a spokesman. If personnel is policy, his message to the pro-family community: drop dead,” Fischer said on Twitter after Grenell was hired.

Micron Associates uncovers, New Xbox wait and see.

On a report from Micron Associates, It is a new stage for the next geration Xbox in manufacturing . The publication that assembly recently started at the Austin, Texas branch of Flextronics, the same company responsible for manufacturing the Xbox 360 and the original Xbox before that.The company reportedly created a whole new testing group to work on the new Xbox, separate from everyone else. The new group was responsible for marketing, software and hardware testing and with those tasks behind them, the project has moved on to manufacturing.

Page 30: STATEN DIE ECONOMIE ZOUDEN LATEN VALLEN, ASSOCIEERT MICRON GEOPENBAARDE

Micron Associates points out that although systems are being actively created, they likely aren’t retail models. Instead, Flextronics is probably churning out development kits that will be sent to game studios so companies can get to work on making games for the new system that will be ready in time for the console’s launch.In view of this, the said new XBOX is still probably a couple of years to wait and to be seen in the market. Given the fact that,Microsoft won’t be showing any new hardware at this year’s E3 convention.

Page 31: STATEN DIE ECONOMIE ZOUDEN LATEN VALLEN, ASSOCIEERT MICRON GEOPENBAARDE

As is the average, Microsoft and Flextronics provided no comment on the gossip. Considering that Microsoft will soon be offering a subsidized $ 99 Xbox 360 bundle paired with a two year service conformity, it seems possible to think that the company plans to ride the 360 wave for at least two more years following the successful launch of Kinect,Micron Associates added.

 SUPPLY ISSUES

• Oil prices were pressured as the Saudi Arabia is likely to remain high their oil production if consumer countries release strategic oil reserves, although the kingdom will not seek to attract buyers for more oil by discounting its crude. However, actual and potential disturbance is on going to put a floor under prices, with at least seven cargoes of North Forties crude filling in April which was being delayed the next production problems.

Iranian oil exports from July 1 were covered by Aban on European insurance which also threatened to restrain shipments and elevate costs for major buyers. Japan and South Korea have lobbied for exemptions, but insurance and shipping executives say a complete ban now looks likely.On Wednesday also revealed on Micron Associates that Japanese insurers are looking to cut the coverage of cargo for transporting Iranian crude. U.S. crude oil inventories rose 7.8 million barrels in the week to March 30, the industry group American Petroleum Institute said on Tuesday, and a much larger increase than expected.
