Why You Need To Start Investing in Bitcoins

November 29, 2017 by Miriam Dunning Leave a Comment

For just over 2 years now I have been investing with the guys at Prescott Regency in cryptocurrency and in the main, Bitcoin. Now, I am aware that this cryptocurrency thing is a new concept for many and if you fall into this bracket you should start getting some education on what this new, digital currency is, and how you can make big money from it. I have done pretty well in the last few years through my investment in Bitcoin and I am confident that the other currencies which I have invested in will follow suit. If you aren’t sure, here are just a few reason why you need to invest in Bitcoin.

Evidence and Predictions

Bitcoin was the very first digital currency that came into existence and it used to cost a couple of dollars per Bitcoin. Over the years however, the people who thought that it was a passing phase or a flawed idea, have come around to the notion that cryptocurrencies will change the way in which we use money and the price has risen. The price hit an all time high this year of $5000 which is serious money and further evidence that this is an idea which carries weight.

The people who correctly predicted that Bitcoins would be worth $5000 have also gone a step further and suggested that it could go as high as $100,000 in ten years.

Wider Acceptance

It is not just people trading with Bitcoin who are interested in the digital currency and there are many online retailers and even governments such as in Japan, which are now accepting Bitcoin. The fact that ether is now wider acceptance for this form of currency is further proof that it demand is rising and this means that if you have Bitcoins, people will want them and the prices will rise.

Limitations

We already know that there are only 21 million Bitcoins which can be in existence and at the moment, just over 50% of them have been mined and are on the market. What this limitation does is ensure that demand constantly increases and will usually outstrip the supply. Therefore if you can get in right now in terms of investing, you stand to do very well in the future once the final Bitcoins have been mined, and we must move on to other digital currencies.

Lack of Knowledge  

Whilst there are some heavy hitting financial investors who are looking to invest in digital currency, there are still very few people who actually understand what cryptocurrency is and how successful it may be. This means that right now is there perfect time to get in before others do, in order to bag yourself a healthy profit later on down the line. Mark my words, this will be the end of cash as we know it and that makes this the perfect time to invest in the future.

Flight Delay Compensation Calculation Decided by Court of Justice

November 18, 2017 by Miriam Dunning Leave a Comment

The amount of compensation possible for a flight delay has been decided by the Court of Justice, in a unique case. The Court of Justice of the European Union ruled on compensation calculations for delayed or cancelled flights and their distance. Going forward, the Court’s ruling will be adhered to for all similar flight compensation cases.

Flight Delay Compensation Case

This ruling came about after a problem arose during a flight compensation case, brought about by passengers travelling from Rome to Hamburg via Brussels. The flight was operated by Brussels Airlines, with a stopover. The flight in question was three hours and 50 minutes late arriving in Hamburg, and so the passengers attempted to claim compensation.

The case, which was put before a local court, sought to claim compensation based on existing EU regulations. These EU regulations stated that airline passengers could claim compensation in the event of a delay; €250 for flights less than 1,500km in distance and €400 for those more than 1,500km. However, as the passengers’ journey from Rome to Hamburg technically involved a connecting flight, it was unclear as to whether these regulations applied and which distance should be used.

The case was then handed over to the Court of Justice to decide whether the total distance refers to the distance between the departure airport and arrival airport, or whether it factors in the entire distance covered with the connecting flight.

What Was Decided?

The Court of Justice ruled that the exact nature of the flight does not affect whether or not compensation can be claimed, as the passengers’ inconvenience remains the same. This means that both direct and connecting flights are covered by existing EU regulations; only the departure airport and arrival airport are considered. However, the distance – whether the distance is more than or less than 1,500km – is calculated based on a direct flight.

This means that passengers who face delays in the EU with connecting flights are entitled to compensation, but the exact amount will be calculated as if they were flying direct.

How To Trim Off Needless Costs of Car Ownership

October 15, 2017 by Miriam Dunning Leave a Comment

Just buying a car can be expensive enough, without the monthly costs of actually running it. For anyone looking at ways in which they can save money each month, trimming down the costs of running your car are very important as these can often be the biggest spends. Now, there are some areas which you cannot trim, unless you have an emergency, such as if you have taken out finance on your car. If you do have finance and you are struggling with payments, contact the lender to see if you can renegotiate the terms. Other than the finance, there are many ways in which you can trim down on monthly costs.

Gas

Gas in the car is one of your biggest monthly expenditures but there are many ways in which you can manage things to ensure that you bring the costs down to a minimum.

  • Driving Style – If you are an erratic driver who drives at high speeds, brakes late and over-rev the car, you are using a huge amount of gas in doing so. Drive safely to minimize how much gas you are using.
  • Car Pooling – Car pooling to work or using it for the school run is an eco-friendly and cost effective way of reducing how much money you spend on gas each month.
  • Cheap Fuel – If you shop around your local gas stations, you will see that the price of gas varies greatly, find the cheapest and make sure that you use it.

Washing

Throwing $10 per week to get your car cleaned may not seem like much but you can easily save this $500 per year if you do it yourself. Car washing is not hard and you don’t need any high tech equipment to be able to do it. Spend a couple of hours on a weekend, giving you car the love and car that it needs, and save yourself plenty of money in the mean time.

Check-Ups

There is little worse than having something go wrong with your car, especially if you are not financially ready for it. In order to minimize the risk of something going wrong, make sure that you take the car to the garage for check-ups, before long journeys, and before a harsh winter. Mechanics can spot potential problems and if you nip them in the bud early, you can greatly reduce the chance of your car breaking down.

Gadgets

There are all manner of gadgets out there on the market which you can put inside your car from tech items, to air fresheners, and everything in between. The key here is to simply ask yourself whether you really need such an item in your car. Usually the answer to this question will be no and you can avoid getting sucked in to buying things which you don’t need, if you follow the 10 second rule. When you see something which you want to buy, hold it in your hand for 10 seconds and think about whether or not your need it, nine times out of ten, the answer will be no.

Be vigilant about how much you are spending on your car, and you can reduce it in no time.
