I remember as an investment broker not so long ago, my clients and peers talking about ethical investments. Exercising your ethical choice in investments was becoming mainstream and even clients were talking about it.
Contrast this with the Elliot Spitzer case recently. He didn’t seem to care that prostitution and the crimes always linked with […]

Should we be worried about the financial markets? Well I think so. When companies like Lehman Bros lose 50% of their share value for the first time in their very long history, and then start scrabling around trying to raise money on the stock exchange. When major banks are being bailed out by reserve […]

Here’s one for all you gold people. Just another of the many messages to arrive in my mailbox on a daily basis,
which make little or no sense.
So the first person who can write in and tell me what this scheme is about or not, will win an all-expenses-paid trip to the moon in 2020. The […]

Are you earning more, saving more, and eating less,

The April issue of DGC mag featured an article on the growth of the online payment company web money, and since we have been focusing on paypal, moneybookers and others this month, I thought it would be interesting to see how moneyweb shapes up, and what features they offer compared to the others, I covered in my […]

Paypal at present has over 120 million customers that use its services. Customers ranging from large companies who do thousands of transactions to individuals who just want to occasionally send and receive money on line.
