Will betting on the road toll be next?
0 Comments | Dominion Post; Wellington, New Zealand, Sep 1, 2010
I’m no wowser, but the Pakistan cricket betting scandal is a reminder that betting on sport is getting out of hand (Sport, August 30). Fair enough to bet on the outcome of a game, but why during it?
When watching sport on TV these days, I’m accosted by advertisements encouraging me to bet on the outcome of a fixture while it’s being played. The multitude of scenarios we can bet on is also astonishing. I can probably get odds on which rugby league player farts first in a scrum.
What really astounds, though, is the sheer gall of promoters who then insult me with the oxymoron: “Bet responsibly”

Business Brokers often double as business appraisers. I see a real problem with business brokers and their valuations teams it seems like a huge conflict of interest to me. Many times the business broker sales person is also a licensed business evaluator. But the job should be done by a CPA or a non-involved ?Certified Business Appraiser? and not the same Business Broker making the listing for the sale of that business.
See: http://www.cpa2biz.com
Other books on this subject I found relevant are:
?A CPAs Guide to Valuing a Closely Held Business? by Gary Trugman.
?The Value Reporting Revolution: Moving Beyond the Earnings Game? by Robert Eccles.
One should find it ironic that a sales man for a business broker company can tell a prospect anything he wants to and then in the purchase agreement and even the deposit agreement from the buyer have a clause in the contract that says something to the effect that you have done your due diligence and nothing we have said verbally or in writing was used to affect your decision.

Hey there,
Have you been seeing your doctor a little too much lately? Headaches here, chest pains there???..shortness of breath, feeling weak, dizzy, and lethargic.
A nasty virus going around?
Not likely.
Something you caught from your kids?
Probably not.
Well, what is it?
Would you believe (and you should) that it could be that you?re overweight and/or out of shape?
?No way, it can?t be!? you say??..I mean you?re supposed to drag yourself throughout the day eating chips, drinking caffeine laced beverages, and exercising your fingers on the keyboard.
?That?s how life supposed to be????..you say, work like crazy???make as much money as possible regardless of the health risks??retire (while being overweight and out of shape) and spend a good amount of your retirement visiting your local doctor and hospital waiting for that new breakthrough surgery to suck up all that fat from your arteries. Unfortunately, this is often true of many people nowadays. How can you possibly stop this and decrease the possibility (exponentially, I might add) that you have to spend your retirement years pitching a tent at your doctor?s office.
Get moving.
Start a fitness program???..try to do a pushup (you should be able to do more than 1, by the way)???take a brisk walk around the neighborhood??..take a jog with your dog up and down the street??..try to do 10 crunches??just start something! More importantly, stick with it.
That?s all you need??..just 2 little things.
Start with something???.and stick with it.
2 simple, yet powerful actions.
