George Michael Live (The Final Act) Symphonica Tour @ Jyske Bank Boxen Herning 02.09.2011

George Michael (The Final Act – Amazing, I’m Your Man & Freedom) Symphonica Tour @ Jyske Bank Boxen Herning, Denmark 02.09.2011 Everyday I get many messages with questions from users, so I decided to write a small FAQ about the recordings. 1. Camera used is a Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7 with 12x optical zoom and records in HD. Panasonic Lumix series, is in my humble opinion, some of the best pocketcams on the market, and very reasonable priced! But newer Panasonic Lumix than mine is out now, and even more packed with features and specs. 2. Recordings was made from first row, dead center in front of stage. 3. In respect of George Michael, I will NOT ever sell or exchange these recordings with other recordings – so don’t send me more questions about this. Recording and publishing these clips on Youtube is allready enough copyright violation… I hope you understand 4. The recordings published on my channel, is the only recordings I have. Unfortunately no other recordings, and also no recordings from GM’s following concert in Copenhagen. Also – don’t forget to watch the rest of my videos from same show on www.youtube.com

Banking Business Online

These Days, I do All of My Banking Business Online.

I opened my first checking account about 14 years ago and did nearly all of my banking on my own. I’d balance my checkbook manually, and on those rare occasions I needed to check my balance for something, I would either call an automated system or simply wait for my monthly statement to arrive.
That all changed after a few years when I found that I could do my banking business online, and I have been doing it that way ever since.
I have to admit that I love doing my banking business online for a number of reasons. When I think back to the days of balancing my checkbook and making sure that everything jibed with my statements each month, I have to laugh a little, because it just seems so archaic.
It is so easy to go online, look up your bank account information and balance everything electronically. I can see what money I have coming in, check for fees being taken out, see when they are withdrawn from my account and adjust my records accordingly.
Another thing that I really love about doing my banking business online is that I can easily transfer money from my checking account to my savings account and vice versa. I try to put money from checking into savings every time I get paid, and there have been a few times that I had to take some money out of savings to cover some larger bills.

One of the biggest benefits of doing my banking business online is the fact that it is so much quicker than having to call the bank, go through a series of prompts, and then typing in your checking account number and password. Then you have to hear more prompts before it gets to the option of hearing your account balance.
If something was off, there was no way to see what the problem was and correct it until my monthly bank statement came. By doing my banking business online, I can look at my entire transaction history and see exactly what has been done with both my checking and savings accounts. There is a tremendous peace of mind that goes along with that.
I also like that fact that banking online allows you to look at other features the bank offers, such as IRA accounts and investment opportunities. It really helps in terms of financial planning, and you can research at your own pace without having to go to the bank to talk to a personal banker.
For me, performing my banking business online has made my life much easier. I know that it is not for everyone, as I know many people who still prefer to do it the old-fashioned way. I, however, could not imagine doing it any other way and would recommend trying it out to anyone interested in simplifying their life.

Bank Account

What to Take into Account when Looking for a Bank Account.

These days, it is almost impossible to do business without a bank account. Whether you are shopping at your favorite store, making a purchase online or attempting to get money to someone in need quickly, the ability to do so with cash is becoming increasingly difficult. However, finding a bank account that fits your needs may be difficult, especially in this financial climate. Here are a couple of tips for finding the bank account that is right for you.

First, consider what your banking needs are. If you are someone who travels a great deal, you should probably consider banking with one of the bigger corporate banks, such as Chase with JP Morgan, Bank of America, or US Bank. These will have locations across the United States, creating convenience for you and saving you money at the ATM.

However, if you mostly work locally, you should consider setting up a bank account with a regional bank. These will usually be very friendly locations, and may provide you with better terms than what the corporate banks can.

Second, you should take your credit score into consideration. Many banks are going to look at your credit rating before they are willing to open up a bank account for you. This does not mean you need perfect credit to open up an account. However, it does mean you should be prepared to have to pay monthly service fees. This is the bank’s way of protecting themselves if you overdraft and never pay. Has that happened to you in the past? Consider second chance banking. Offered at a variety of banks across the United States, especially online, these banks will not look into your records with the Chex system, which gives you a chance to restore your credit while having access to banking resources.

Finally, think about what kind of services you need from your bank. A lot of the time, when you go to open a bank account, the banker working with you is going to try to entice you with all kinds of extras and perks. Offers will include things like special credit cards you can earn rewards with, or cash back rewards if you sign up for auto-bill pay. However, not all of these are good choices for every person. If you don’t have a lot of cash flow, an automatic deduction could put you in the red, and for many of us, that is not something we can afford. Read the fine print before you agree to anything with your bank account.

Having a bank account certainly has its perks. If you can find the right bank for you, it is absolutely worth it. Before you sign up, though, you should weigh your options carefully. Does this bank account meet your banking needs? Do I have a good enough credit score for this kind of bank account? Does this bank give me the right kind of services? If the answer to all of these questions is yes, then it looks like you will have found your match.

IRS Tax Problems

Bank Failures have led to IRS Tax Problems.

Each April 15th when the tax man comes knocking (not literally) millions of Americans scramble to get their returns filed on time. The lines are long at the Post Offices but not as long as they used to be in the days before filing over the internet became available. Now all you need to do is click and your tax return is filed.

Due to the economic downturn of the past several years however, many hundreds of thousands of hard working Americans have found themselves facing mounting IRS tax problems due to their inability to pay their tax debts at the end of the year. These IRS tax problems are especially prevalent among self employed people and small business owners. These people, the backbone of the American economy, have been literally ground into the dirt by IRS agents and unfair tax laws.

Several years ago when the economy was cranking along, many 1099íd self-employed contractors would just wait until the following year to pay their taxes instead of paying quarterly as is recommended and in fact, required by law. They did not mind paying the whole tax burden from the previous year plus some minor penalties in exchange for having more of their income available to spend during the previous year.

This practice was especially prevalent among Real Estate agents and mortgage brokers and loan officers. Many of these service industry professionals were making great money back in the real estate boom days before the latter part of 2007 when the economy as a whole started to seriously tank and banks stopped lending.

The main problem and the reason many real estate professionals are now faced with large scale IRS tax problems is that no one could see the end was coming. The gravy train of the early 2000s came to a screeching halt after the summer of 2007, but was not apparent until much later that year and into the beginning of 2008.

The problem was that banks continued to take loan applications by borrowers and real estate agents and loan brokers continued to take applications from their clients as if nothing was wrong. The first signs of trouble began late in 2007 when many borrowers and home buyers began to be declined for their loan applications after many months of waiting and repeated requests from the banks to turn in more and more documentation.

Banks tightened credit and in fact stopped lending but did not tell anyone. If the banks had just told their clients that they were no longer lending many experts agree that it would have helped to forestall this horrible situation we are now facing. For example, if you as an agent knew for a fact that the bank was not going to give a loan to your clients (home buyers) then you would have been more careful and saved your earnings from earlier on and had enough the next year to pay your taxes owed.

The banks and lending institutions knew they were not going to give out loans but they decided it was in their best interest not to advertise that fact to the world. In fact many banks hid their toxic assets and played illegally with their balance sheets to make it look like there was nothing wrong and be able to make money on the stock market.

Citigroup was one of the worst when it came to these illegal practices and the government is currently making a half hearted attempt to prosecute them but with mixed results. The problem is that Citigroup is too big to fail and we all know what that means: they will be protected while the rest of us have to face our IRS tax problems without any help from the government. Where is the bailout for ordinary hard working folks? Nowhere to be found it seems.

Internet Banking Services

Internet Banking Services have Revolutionized the Industry.

There once was a time when you had to drive to your local bank to get your bank statement or check your balance. There was also a time when we drove a horse and buggy to get to work. If you are not using internet banking services provided by your bank or lending institution then you have not joined the 21st century yet my friend and are probably living in some cult religion that does not recognize any form of invention or even electrical power.

Chances are you are still churning butter by hand and milking cows in the barn while tuning up your fiddle for the hootenanny later on that night.

Internet banking services have absolutely revolutionized the way that banks do business in several key ways. Remember just five or six years ago when you walked into a bank and there were huge lines every payday (1st and 15th)? Now you step into a bank and you are immediately greeted (accosted) by one or several managers before you even get into line, which is probably small. The line is small for good reason since there are usually five to six teller windows open and usually no more than two or three customers in line, or anywhere inside the facility for that matter.

Behind the tellers are usually the Teller Manager and the Assistant Manager and they patrol back and forth down the line like prison guards suspicious of an impending escape plot. These managers will also greet you and ask you how your day is going or how your weekend was or any one of several insipid rhetorical questions that they really donít care to hear the answer for.

Since most people now use internet banking services provided by all of the major banks and most of the smaller ones too, there are less and less reasons for any of them to actually enter the bank building itself. Not surprising is the fact that once you get into the bank building the only patrons there are senior citizens who either are not computer literate or are just looking for someone to greet them and ask them ridiculous questions. You canít ask an 80 year old person a question like how their day is going because you will get an earful and then some.

I have seen grown men break down and cry because the senior would just not stop yapping, bless their kindly wrinkly old hearts. There should be classes at the local senior centers on how to run a computer and get on the internet. Old folks should not be denied the pleasures of the internet. They have just as much right as you or I to receive spam and Trojan viruses which will destroy their computers and lead to identity theft.

Why should they be exempt from Nigerian or Ghana bank scams or MLM pyramid schemes designed to rob them of their social security money? Many seniors love to email and chat online back and forth and has led to an explosion of knitting websites and subsequent forums.
