I learned a lot from the answers to this question. I had no idea that farm subsidies were even higher in other countries. It’s very hard to see an economic justification for this, but it’s clear that the situation is more complicated than it appears. Here are some Republican candidates’ answers from yesterday’s CNN-YouTube debates.

Better Presentations

I’ve often sat through a number of PowerPoint presentations which were extremely dull and boring. I wish that more than just bullet points were made, but that’s essentially all there was. The visual medium has so much more potential. We should all make some changes to the way presentations are made.
My idea of a star presenter is Steve Jobs. I love to watch his keynotes as soon as they’re released because he always does an amazing speaking job. In addition, he makes great use of visuals, with simple slides containing only vital info, such as a key comparison, photo, phrase, or even just a single word.
Manual Viloria tipped me off to a presentation by Hans Rosling, about graphing publicly-funded data to see things such as the relationship between health and wealth, and the distribution of these between the western world, third-world countries, and across different countries and regions.
It’s truly an excellent presentation, but it’s even more extreme and unusual than I expected. Something more along the lines of Steve Jobs is preferable to me. For another take on presentations, see Marco Montemagno’s Myths about the Internet and Web 2.0 Opportunities. It’s Italian with English subtitles.

I don’t know if my business is big enough to justify this. I’m personally earning about $13.53/day. Is that enough that I should watch cash in/cash out?
I spent $29 for 1 month of 1ShoppingCart.com. That’s going to be a $29/mo recurring expense, or about $1/day. Should I write that as $1/day cash out in the Excel spreadsheet?

Jermaine Griggs created a million-dollar piano teaching operation, and since emailing my friends and family about it, I’ve gotten so much feedback.
In fact, after watching some of the “fancy,” customized stuff he’s doing, some people were intimidated and thought that Jermaine only catered to the “up-and-running” crowd.
That couldn’t be further from the truth.
You see, Jermaine *is* doing some crazy stuff over there in his small piano niche. Yes, he’s managed to do a lot of “behind-the-scenes” customizing and personalizing of tools… but he really does have the beginner’s heart.
Because he knows exactly what it feels like in the beginning. Heck, he had $70 to his name (and traded his mom cash for her debit card to register the domain name because he didn’t have a card yet). He didn’t have capital… or a silver spoon in his mouth. He started at the beginning but the key is that he got started.
So that you can see Jermaine break down “basics & fundamentals,” I’ve gotten him to share some videos with me below.
Check out how clear he breaks down the concepts. Call it what you want, but the guy has a knack for speaking and teaching (…and this is only a small taste of what he’s got up his sleeve).
