Being 4 days away from the 2008 U.S. Elections, I thought it would be good to share with you my thoughts about it. I’ve been following very closely the news, polls and some of the speeches of Barak Obama and John McCain. From my perspective, I think that there is no doubt that Senator McCain…
Last week, I wrote about how Warren Buffett is investing in companies at bargain prices at times when others are selling and losing their shirts. Warren Buffett’s explanation to this is that these companies are sound and solid and that eventually “Most major companies will be setting new profit records 5, 10 and 20 years…

Not only is it a financial crisis, but it is also a currency crisis, (exchange rate crisis) a business crisis and, potentially, a family crisis.

While I was browsing videos in Youtube.com, I stumbled upon these amazing videos that demonstrates that water can be used to power motor vehicles. Just imagine the tremendous change this would have in the world. We can find water almost everywhere, and it is a fuel that doesn’t contaminate the atmosphere (thinking about Beijing, Mexico…
Trough Traci Knoppe’s personal blog, I found a very shocking video about abortion. It is a video made in Spanish by the mexican actor Eduardo Verastegui, although it has English sub-titles. Being myself a Roman Catholic I strongly believe that abortion is a bad thing and that life should be respected at all times. It…
Thanks to Ed Dale’s blog, I saw this very interesting video interview to Warrent Buffet by Charlie Rose. The interview was held last week before US Congress voted on the $700 Billion dollars bailout plan. If there is a guy that knows about money that’s him, so we should listen carefully and pay attention when…
Just found this amazing magazine cover from “The Economist“ on Loic Lemeur’s blog. I think it says it all about the current global financial crisis…. Who is going to fix this mess? Image Source: Flickr
