World’s richest woman calls for Australians to consider $2 a Day Wages
The richest woman in the world, mining leader Gina Rinehart warned that Australian work has become extremely expensive, for worldwide corporations who could employ staff for 2 bucks per day from the african continent. The 58-year-old stated in a video address yesterday that companies need to turn to alternative countries because the cost for Australian labour is simply too high, which was promptly criticised by Prime Minister Julia Gillard. “The evidence is inarguable that Australia is becoming too expensive and too uncompetitive to do export-oriented business,” Rinehart said. “Africans want to work, and its workers are willing to work for less than $2 per day. Such statistics make me worry for this country’s future.” she said.
Recently, Gina Rinehart has been making waves in the media, catching news headlines and angering people from all over the world, with her straight-forward opinion of improving the Australian economic system, asking people to: “spend less time drinking or smoking and socialising, and more time working”.
Ms Rinehart also bitten the Australian government, blaming them of not being competitive enough on the global markets, and stated: ‘If we competed at the Olympic Games as sluggishly as we compete economically there would be an outcry.’
Her fortune was estimated at 30 bn. $, inherited from her father, Lang Hancock, . Georgina “Gina” Rinehart earn 50 million dollars a day. And she didn’t stop: “The millionaires and billionaires who choose to invest in Australia are actually those who most help the poor and our young,” she said. “This secret needs to be spread widely.”
She’s also a mean mommy who doesn’t believe in trust funds. The Times wrote: Georgina Rinehart … is being sued by three of her four children for control of a trust fund worth billions of dollars. Ms. Rinehart has characterized her litigious children as slackers who need to get real job, since they have called their mother’s conduct “deceptive” and “disgraceful.’’
Essentially all those factors make Rinehart is that perfect mix of Bond villain, Marie Antoinette and Cruella de Vil–the kind of stinking rich and socially ham-fisted character that’s so easy to hate. And don’t think for second, that the politicians and news agencies giving her air time aren’t enjoying every second of it.
Basically all these aspects make Rinehart is the perfect mix of Bond villain, Marie Antoinette and Cruella de Vil–the type of just awaful smelling rich and socially ham-fisted character that’s very easy to hate. And the politicians and news agencies giving her air time are enjoying every minute of it.

Tax lien sales are actually a great investment for those who are tempted to take full advantage of “get rich quick” schemes. While many banks currently only provide interest rates on deposits of under 1 percent, some states are allowing the purchasers of tax liens to earn mortgage rates up to 20 to 50 percent, the report noted. That’s the reason why tax lien sales are often promoted on the internet and though late-night TV infomercials. A tax lien sale can begin even if a property owner only owes several hundred dollars. A $200,000 home can be sold at a tax lien sale for only $1,200.

The report cited a case of an 81-year-old Rhode Island woman who fell behind on a $474 sewer bill. A company acquired the house in a tax sale for $836.39. The woman was evicted from the house she had lived in for more than 40 years and the corporation resold the property for $85,000.

The elderly are particularly vulnerable: due to high unemployment and declining home values, property tax delinquencies have increased to about $15 billion a year. Another aged Montana woman, who lived alone and had no close family to support her, fell more than $5,000 behind on taxes, the report said. After she didn’t reply to letters from the company that bought her home in a tax sale, she was evicted from her Missoula home. Consequently, she lost about $150,000 in equity in the property.

The report said state authorities need to make it easier for homeowners to retake their properties after tax lien sales. It said they have to limit the interest and penalties investors charge and increase court oversight. It also called on local governments to allow people pay back taxes or fees to investors on an installment plan, and to increase notice to homeowners and ensure they understand their rights.

Beyond the possibility of being scammed from a web based breeder there is the risk of buying a puppy coming from a puppy mill organization. People planning to get a purebred puppy should meet the puppy’s parents and examine the living environment firsthand. It is better to adopt a homeless dog from a rescue organization or animal shelter.

They wired the $1,200, thinking they would get it back as soon as the dog arrived. Nevertheless, there was another request for $400 and $300 for vaccines and they wired again the money. When the bulldog reached Sky Harbor International Airport was extremely sick and the company needed yet another $700 for treatment before it can be released. That cute little bulldog was meant to be free, the family invested more than $2,000 in their pet. They realized it was a scam too late.

Authorities warn customers to be cautious when buying or selling cars on classifieds sites. Websites like Kijiji and Craiglist are such websites to buy and sell vehicles, but also a good way for scammers to get rid of stolen vehicles. International scammers got rich selling unexistant cars, combining to-good-to-be-true offers with Western Union payments. They come with tales such as new jobs, medical problems or military situation in order to justify low prices. They persuade most of victims that they are affiliated with eBay’s vehicle purchase protection program. More and more stolen vehicles are sold on classified ads websites. Registering a car is not enough to be sure a acar is not stolen. Stolen cars still have the ability to ne registered. Ask to see the seller’s ID, compare the registration to the vehicle’s VIN number, or check the federal tag on the inside of the driver’s door. You can also do some research on the Internet by simply googling the car’s VIN. If the car have multiple registrations this sould be a big question mark. Sellers should be also careful when accepting payments. Avoid international payments (like Western Union) or fraudulent bank drafts. Nothing is as good as cash for a local transaction. The same car can be sold to many victims. By doing an investigation on the Internet you can find out if an advertisement for the same car can be found on nearly all the classified sites. Global scam is serious enough nowadays despite the efforts to prevent it.

All the major classified advertising websites agree to the following rules to follow to protect yourself against global scams:

- DEAL ONLY LOCALLY

- DON’T BUY A CAR YOU’VE NEVER SEEN AND PERSONALLY INSPECTED

- NEVER SEEND MONEY VIA VESTERN UNION OR OTHER WIRE TRANSFERS TO PERSONS YOU DON’T KNOW

- EBAY NEVER ALLOW TO USE ITS VEHICLE PROTECTION PROGRAM TO EVERYBODY (NOT EVEN TO CRAIGLIST).

The Federal Trade Comission has won a process against the advertisers of a large commercial scam that misled around 1 million customers countrywide to spend money allegedly to find out how to get rich with real estate deals over the Internet. The FTC is trying to return some $450 million to consumers cought up in the scam. The marketers are not operating the commercials anymore.

The ruling involves commercials for “John Beck’s Free & Clear Real Estate System,” “John Alexander’s Real Estate Riches in 14 Days” and “Jeff Paul’s Shortcuts to Internet Millions.”

The judge discovered that the commercials misled the customers, and despite of the claims of quick cash, all the people who who bought the $39.95 instruction kits lost money. In addition to false claims, the marketers failed to reveal that people would be automatically signed up for a program that cost another $39.95 each month.

In the case of John Beck program the marketers falsely advertised that customers could buy homes for pennies and could make easy money with minor finacial investment. Even if FTC won the judgement, it doesn’t absolutelly mean that customers will get refunds.
