The stock market is, without any doubt, one of the effective ways invented for making wealth. It is the best diplomacy to increase your wealth and generate a good source of passive income. You can simply sit at home or office and check your online trade. If you have a clear understanding of stocks and keep yourself familiarise with regular rise and fall, creating wealth in the stock market will be a cup of tea.

What if you want to invest in stocks or ETFs, but your strict schedule doesn't allow you to invest time on it. You have a keen interest in buying stocks and increasing your wealth but due to insufficient knowledge or lack of time, you are not able to buy. Nevertheless, if you find yourself in a similar situation, hiring a stockbroker is beneficial if you are stepping up for a stock market trade.

Who is a stockbroker?

Once you step in the share market, you might be getting multiple questions in your head. Which stock to buy, which stock will give the best ROI (Return on Investment), is the stock you are investing in the most appropriate choice and similar loads of questions intertwining on your head.

A stockbroker is a professional individual who acts as a mediator between the clients and the traders. They make trades on behalf of their clients and gets the work done easily. Many a time they are a good advisor and helps you on investing. Basically, there are two types of brokers – traditional stockbrokers or full-service stock brokers and online stock brokers or discount stock brokers.

Real estate is not only a business, but it’s also the part of a different culture. A culture which grows with the growing business, a culture of different people doing different deals together, a culture which makes people fall but then get up and walk their way to success. Buying and selling properties tell you a lot about how things work.

Looking to the other side of the abstract concept, Real Estate has always been a booming business for both the entrepreneurs and for the masters in business expertise. However, if you are new to this world, you must have an idea of the myths that circulate within the industry, making people think twice before going for a deal.

Let’s look at such myths which we require to bust for you to have a clear outlook to this
business:

“It’s better to Buy than to Rent”

A person with a straightforward mindset would agree with this statement. However, things are not as straightforward in the truest sense of reality in the real estate business. Now, how can buying not be as efficient as renting? Well, there are terms to it. Suppose you buy a property for a short period. In this case, you would have to spend a lot of money over it which you might not even recover. On the other hand, if you rent a property for a short period, you would end up spending much less when you compare it to the former one.

“Down Payment is the Only Cost” 

A big NO to this myth. Sometimes you think that the initial costs would only include the down payment you are waiting for. However, it is a big mistake to neglect all the other costs that include in your initial costs. Charges such as insurance, inspection costs, or closing costs usually comprise of a good sum of money which people neglect.

“If You Buy a House, you need to pay less for repairs in the upcoming years.”

Again, a statement which would make you think twice before contradicting. It is understandable that one would naturally feel that they need to spend less on maintenance for a house which has been newly built. However, one thing that we forget is the amount we spend on installing new services, closing costs, and other such charges which add up to the reparations. (more…)

As the employer, and the owner of a small business, you have many responsibilities towards your employees. One of them is to get a good insurance policy for them so that they can get the much-needed financial backing when they need it the most. Medical emergencies can strike up at any hour, and one must be prepared to face it. Medical insurance cover can guard against the extreme financial crunch one faces due to expensive medical treatments and medicines. If you introduce a group insurance plan for the employees, where they can invest just a small reasonable amount to get insured and yet get lots of benefits and surplus than a health insurance plan they could buy outside, then it would be a great step towards their welfare. Such group plans are always chosen for the welfare of an entire group of employees at a reduced rate with many facilities. As the employer, you also, therefore, must know how much you can extract out of an insurance plan, and how much you may negotiate with an insurance provider to get the best offer for your employees.

Prescription drugs

The medical insurance company does not always cover prescription drugs, and even if they are covered, you do not get the coverage right at the time of purchase at the point of purchase. Hence this is a must thing to be discussed with the insurance provider. They should cover for drugs because medicines are the most integral part of treatment and without cover, you can go bankrupt simply by buying medicines.

Paramedical consultation

A good insurance provider must be able to help you get paramedical services at reduced rates through their channel so that your services are reasonably priced, and there again they must have a good allotment for the service per person per service type in a year.

Supply of medical equipment

Many medical emergencies and treatments need the supply of media equipment. Whether you buy or rent equipment, you would need money. And it’s best if the group insurance plan supports the purchases. That’s why as the employer you must see to it that the insurance provider has a supporting plan to cover for some must need equipment like ambulance service, buying of hearing aids, and other nursing and caring utilities.
