The ''Shark Tank'' Is Educational	I hope everyone has been watching it as it shows up on prime time television.  There are many business lessons here in easy-to-understand language.  Last week's biggest issue was the evaluation of a business that was already up and running.
Let’s Get Real About the Healthcare Industry	The price of every healthcare service and product in this entire industry is ridiculously high.  We need to deflate these costs.  The industry needs to shrink, not expand, which is what will happen if the proposed health care bill passes.
Many Don't Know How Money Works	Business mistakes are so common these days; it can be hard to weed out good business basics from the irrational.  I have been rereading, "Looking out for Number 1."  The author reminds us that if you hang out with irrational people long enough, you will start to think like they do.
Let's Take a Look at Present Versus Future Value	Value has been a hard concept to grasp since so many investment products have had their prices decrease so much.  The changes we are currently seeing are enough to confuse even veteran market watchers.  I am not an analyst, but I can give you a good picture of how to get a handle on this.
Marketing On The Fly	There isn’t a newspaper or magazine that isn't discussing the mess the economy is in.  Despite the scary headlines, if you are a business owner or manager, you have to find a way to market your business despite the downturn in the markets.
People Are Still Investing in Real Estate	Are they nuts?  Have they not read the headlines that scare the rest of us away from real property for years?  Real property is not a viable option for those whose budgets can’t stretch to include investments that may be sitting for several years before bringing in a rate of return.
The Success of Niche Businesses	It really doesn’t matter how bad the economy is for niche businesses many times.  If you find a need and no one else is filling it, you can make out like a bandit.
