Prior to law school, Hale Stewart was a bond broker with Vining Sparks, where his clients were comprised of mutual funds, insurance companies and money managers.
He returned to law school in 2001, graduating from the South Texas School of Law in 2003. After law school, he opened his law practice focusing on transactional work. He continued his education at the Thomas Jefferson School of Law in 2007 where he obtained an LLM in domestic and international taxation, graduating Magna Cum Laude. He has three certifications from the American Academy of Financial Management: Chartered Trust and Estate Planner, Chartered Wealth Manager and Chartered Asset Manager. There is currently a debate regarding the appropriate policy response to the current economic situation.

Save to Favorites Economic Systems An economic system is a network of organisations used by a society to resolve the basic problem of what, how much, how and for whom to produce. Free market economy: Where households own resources and markets allocate resources through the workings of the price mechanism. Planned or command economy: In a planned or command system typically associated with a socialist or communist system, scarce resources are owned by the government. Mixed economy: In a mixed economy, some resources are owned by the public sector (government) and some resources are owned by the private sector.

Save to Favorites It is often said that the central purpose of economic activity is the production of goods and services to satisfy our changing needs and wants. The basic economic problem is about scarcity and choice. Every society has to decide:What goods and services to produce: Does the economy uses its resources to operate more hospitals or hotels? We are continually uncovering of new wants and needs which producers attempt to supply by employing factors of production. Scarcity means we all have to make choices Because of scarcity, choices have to be made by consumers, businesses and governments. Trade-offs when making choices Making a choice made normally involves a trade-off – this means that choosing more of one thing can only be achieved by giving up something else in exchange.

UNdata provides a catalog of 27 United Nations statistical databases and 60 million records about the past, present, and future state of the world. Topics include demographics, life expectancy, labor levels, poverty, and a lot more. What does all that data mean though? World Progress Report, the latest from FlowingPrints, offers a look into the expansive UN collection. In whole, the report tells a story of how we live and die, and the stuff in between. Let's start at the beginning: birth. The percentage of births with a skilled attendant around has increased in all regions, but more than a majority of births in several regions are still unattended. Population of course continues to grow, but at a slower rate thankfully. The average life expectancy fifty years ago, worldwide was 49 years old. Try the Netherlands if you're not into the whole work thing.
News N Economics: The European debt crisis in charts. I present some basic statistics to highlight the problem in Europe. In short, there exists a deleterious positive feedback loop between overly leveraged banks and their sovereigns in key markets. Exhibit 1: European Banks are overly levered. Spanning 2006 through the latest data point, key European banking systems - France, Germany, and Italy - increased leverage. The chart above illustrates the ratio of bank assets to capital (see the IMF's Financial Soundness Indicators for the data and description of 'capital'). The countries are ranked by largest % drop in bank leverage spanning the period 2006 to current (Greece, Austria, and Belgium) to the largest % surge in leverage spanning the same period (France, Italy, and the UK).
Note: the 2006 data is taken from the 2007 IMF Global Financial Stability Report. The level of leverage is not strictly comparable across countries due to differences in national accounting, taxation, and supervisory regimes. Exhibit 2. Exhibit 3.

Map. Print Blog / The Color of Money from Around the World by COLOURlovers. In honor of this month's release of the United States' redesigned five dollar bill I have been scouring through the 191 currently circulating currencies of the 192 member states of the United Nations to find some of the most colorful, unique and dramatic bank notes.
The New Five Photo from moneycenteral.msn.com The redesigned $5 bill was unveiled on September 20, 2007, and was issued on March 13, 2008. Previously covered here on COLOURlovers, the redesign involves some very noticeable changes, mostly for security reasons, but also in an attempt to make the bill more friendly to the visually impaired. The new five incorporates the use of micro printing of type to make it more difficult to copy. Photo from moneycenteral.msn.com The giant purple "5". One Interesting thing about the new five is the use of the EURion constellation which many photocopiers will refuse to copy.

A developed country, the economy of Greece mainly revolves around the service sector (80.6%) and industry (16%), while agriculture made up an estimated 3.4% of the national economic output in 2012.[4] Important Greek industries include tourism and shipping.
The Greek Merchant Navy is the largest in the world, with Greek-owned vessels accounting for 15.17% of global deadweight tonnage as of 1 January 2013.[31] With 15.5 million international tourist arrivals in 2012, Greece was the seventh most visited country in the European Union and sixteenth in the world.[32] The country is also a significant agricultural producer within the EU.
Greece is classified as an advanced,[38] high-income economy,[39] and was a founding member of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and the Organization of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation (BSEC).

From accounting to sales, finance to management, business graduates understand what makes companies tick—and how to make them better. Many professionals pursue online business degrees and MBA degree programs while working. These degrees give them leverage to increase their earnings—or break into new fields. There are hundreds of possible careers for these graduates. A small sample includes: Salesperson Advertising executive Company president/CEO Business analyst Consultant What is Business or an MBA? MBA stands for a Master’s Degree in Business Administration. The focus of a degree in this field is to receive a well rounded education in a variety of business categories, such as marketing, accounting, human resources, finance, management, and operations.
Whether you are interested in starting your own business or working on Wall Street, a business degree provides you a strong foundation to start. How can you get started? Textbook Economics: If all the countries in the world are in debt, where did all the money go?, Political News by Terence White, Politics On Toast. The answer is simple. To master this concept however, we must look at human nature’s gift of rationality. We must remember that consumers are more cautious around high prices, whether prices have risen because of taxes, inflation or even interest rates when taking out loans. This is because consumers both a) want more for less, and b) don’t like getting ripped off. Friedrich Augustus Hayek identified a fundamental point with interest rates. The next place to look would be at less industrialised nations, economies requesting bailouts, and Less Economically Developed Countries (LEDC’s).
This part of the answer is similar to a spoilt child who gets his five pounds weekly pocket money without fail. The incentives for the UK, France, Germany and so on to bail out the nations mentioned earlier are understandable. However, when these nations get bailed out, they too get incentives. Another area of study in this arena is the Third World.
The solution for both of these scenarios is this. Opinion - Image. QS World University Rankings® 2011/2012, now with fees information. RFE. Business Economics | Introduction to Basic Economics. Council for Economic Education.
