Do you partake in the Scream Town Experience?

If you live in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, you have certainly heard of Scream Town and perhaps you have even attended.

This event was created and is produced by one of my fellow Magician colleagues here in the Twin Cities.

It is a very well run production, and as an event professional I have high respect for this gentleman.

Occasionally, because of the large numbers attending these type functions, there can be some people that get out of control. They will start taking advantage of the excitement and often times get out of hand.

The attendees at this attraction, need to obey rules, and act with respect.

When you attend these functions, please act with respect and dignity and enjoy the experience and have fun.

Ahhh, so this is why Minnesota Health Insurance is so expensive!

Do you wonder WHY Minnesota Health Insurance is crazy nuts expensive? It is because the corporations and organizations involved are greedy, gluttonous and corrupt.

Most of the individuals involved, have good intentions, and our peer and actually caring people. I mean people like the nurses and assistance. Even most of the the doctors and surgeons are genuinely concerned and caring people.

But when the dollar signs $$$ show up, it is very easy for greed, gluttony and corruption to take hold.

DISCLAIMER, I am not a insurance professional or a medical professional or a healthcare professional. I’m just a person with an opinion.

Let’s start first with the pharmaceuticals. If you have ever watched these TV commercials promoting pharmaceutical drugs, everything is rainbows and wonderful. They will show a healthy wonderful couple skipping through a Daisyfield, and suggesting that they are so happy because of this drug.

Then, in the same commercial they will tell you about all of the side effects that will very possibly happen when you take this drug. That is their disclaimer so they don’t get in trouble.

And there is the insurance companies, that provide you with the funds to take care of yourself if something were to happen. However, they also take payments from hundreds of thousands of millions of people to put into this pool so that once in a while on rare occasion people need to use their insurance. Then some of the insurance companies try to avoid the claims.

Don’t get me wrong. Insurance is a good thing to have, but it has also got out of control.

Then there are the medical device manufacturers that make the machines and the different types of tools or products that need to be used for surgery or rehabilitation.

Why are these medical devices so expensive? certainly, there are some precision instruments necessary, but I do believe that many of these devices are way over priced. Why are they overpriced? Because they can be. Often times the insurance companies, manufacturers or distributors are willing to pay these manufacturers for these products and services.

All of this would be fine, if it was not for the greed and gluttony that is human nature.

Yes, Real Estate Arbitrage is a thing right now.

People all over the country are coming up with creative ways to make money, and real estate arbitrage is one of these creative ideas.

So then, what is real estate arbitrage?

Real estate arbitrage is when a RE investor buys a property and then quick — sells the property for a bunch more than it was originally purchased. It is identifying a significant price difference in the marketplace and turning the arbitrage opportunity into cash.

Basically, learning to buy low and sell high.

Know if you can figure out some affiliate programs that are applicable to this, you can earn some money as well.

One idea that is a lot less risky than buying a real estate property, is promoting a software that a lot of real estate professionals use.

Are those psychic readings dependable for business advice?

If you are getting those psychic readings psychic readings for business advice, you might want to take some time and explore if you are desperate, or if you still have your sanity.

I am not saying that psychic readers are fraudulent, and I am not saying that they are honest and well intentioned either.

Granted, some of the success in business seems to be just about luck. We do not know how some things happen. We just need to keep on with our entrepreneurial spirit and keep trying.

Now if you decided to go the route of the psychic reader for business advice, you might be desperate. But then again, a third-party might have some great ideas for your business. Getting ideas from other points of view is always a good idea. Then you should have the discernment to understand if the ideas are intelligent, valid and smart for your business.

Or, perhaps if you are a religious person and believe in God, you could consult with God and bypass the middleman psychic reader and go directly to the source.

And then there is the hybrid version, and you could do both, or all three. Talk to God, consult with a psychic, and read some good business books.

As an entrepreneur, you should have the intelligence to use your discernment and experience to make good decisions as you move forward. However, like I said before, sometimes it might be good to get an opinion from someone outside of yourself.

Hey psychic reader, might use Taro cards, or tea leaves, or a pendulum, or a crystal ball. There are also astrologers, working with the zodiac and your horoscope.

And actually, in my opinion, some of this advice might be better than hiring a business coach. After all, a lot of these business coaches that you see on the Internet are actually more full of bullshit than the psychic readers.

My advice, is use your best judgment.
