Question by Reading and Answering Your Q': If I don’t care about this guy, then why does it bother me so much he’s still “on the market”
We’ve been dating 2 months ONLY. And I just found out he’s still on “the market” online, through facebook, in touch with many women after him. However, him and I are “not official”= we’ve actually talked about it and we both don’t want anything serious. I do not want to be tied down to one just guy but it bothers me he’s the same. – WHY!

Question by chicagogirl: When I but stock at “market” price on an online brokerage account, why don’t I get the real time price?
For example, I have an Ameritrade account and I set it up to trade at market price. Right before and right after it shows real time price of a stock at say $ 52.8/share but when I say I want to buy, it executes the purchase and I buy at 53.08/share. Why don’t I get the 52.8 price when the real time quotes immediately before and after are cheaper?

Answer by Brenda M Hello Chicagog:
The short answer is simply that your “order”(s) are not placed into market in real time. If you read through the agreement you have with the trading account being used . . . it will be in there somewhere.
It is a major stumping block with the on line trading world.

Report: 89.7% of bing.com Internet Pharmacy Advertisers Don’t Require a Prescription, are Otherwise Unlawful
Arlington, VA (PRWEB) August 4, 2009
LegitScript.com, an online pharmacy verification service, and KnujOn.com, an Internet compliance company, have released a report analyzing Microsoft’s sponsored search results (online advertisements) for Internet pharmacies displayed on bing.com. The report indicates that 89.7% of the Microsoft Internet pharmacy advertisements reviewed by the authors were fake, illegal or fraudulent Internet pharmacies.
Most of the Internet pharmacy advertisements analyzed in the report did not require a valid prescription. The authors were able to order a prescription-only muscle relaxant from a Microsoft-sponsored Internet pharmacy advertisement without any prescription.
Also, the authors ordered another prescription drug from a Microsoft-sponsored Internet pharmacy advertisement that tested positive as counterfeit.
Search engine advertising programs allow website owners to purchase visibility on the first few pages of search results, where online ads are listed as “sponsored sites.” Because Microsoft receives revenue each time that an Internet user clicks on a bing.com sponsored site, it is generally accepted that online ads should not facilitate unlawful activity.
LegitScript is the only Internet pharmacy verification organization in the United States identified by the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy as adhering to its standards for certifying Internet pharmacies as safe and legitimate. LegitScript President John Horton said, “We were able to purchase potentially addictive drugs without a prescription or any age verification via bing.com ads. We also received counterfeit medication. Microsoft profits from these illegal ads, which put Internet users at risk.”
KnujOn tracks Internet criminality and has succeeded in removing over 100,000 spam websites from the Internet. “These bing.com ads aren’t real pharmacies,” said Garth Bruen, KnujOn’s President. “These types of sites are usually the product of organized crime and vast illicit drug networks, many of them based in Russia and Eastern Europe, that deceive, defraud and poison Internet users.”
The study also found disclosure gaps in bing.com’s advertising program, showing how an advertisement that appears to have been placed by a legitimate Internet pharmacy links instead to a “rogue” online pharmacy selling counterfeit drugs.
“We urge Microsoft to fix this problem,” Horton and Bruen stated. “By continuing to letting these advertisements, Microsoft is facilitating prescription drug abuse and the proliferation of forge drugs, both of which put our most vulnerable citizens at risk.”
The full report, and video clips and screen shots of each advertisement, are available at LegitScript.com and KnujOn.com.
The best selling body moisturizers are in fact the worst moisturizers! You would be shocked to know the reality. Find out the scientific and hard-core facts in this article that would make you aware of the harsh reality behind the so called “best skin moisturizers” in the market.
If you have a look at the best selling body moisturizers in local drugstores and department stores, you will find that a majority of them are best sellers due to their rock-bottom price tag.
You will also find that they contain ingredients which actually harmful chemical substances which should be no-where close to the skin. This is the reason why they are available at a cheap price! Rather than doing any good for the skin, the application of these best selling body moisturizers actually causes a lot of long term skin damage and health problems.
Here are some of the harmful synthetic chemicals that are used in majority of the best selling body moisturizers; you should avoid these at any cost –
1) Parabens — they are used as preservatives in skincare products. Manufacturers love them because they are cheap and boost their profits. Clinical studies show that they cause allergic reactions, rashes, disruptions in the body’s endocrine system and cancer.
2) Mineral oils — these are the most commonly found ingredients in the best selling body moisturizers. They are cheap and are highly addictive for the skin. They coat the skin and temporality lock the moisture within. But in this way, they clog the skin pores and make them incapable of breathing freely.
The accumulated toxins lying within cause acne eruptions, rashes, allergies and irritation. Mineral Oils also adversely affect the production of essential oils of the skin.
So, when the effects of the moisturizer diminish, our skin doesn’t produce adequate moisture and this creates excessive dryness. In the long-term, our skin becomes dull, lifeless and wrinkled due to premature skin aging.
3) Fragrances — they refer to 4000 different types of synthetic chemicals that are used to create a nice smell in the best selling body moisturizers. But they cause very harmful consequences for our health. They interfere in the functioning of the central nervous system and create problems such as the depression, hyperactivity, anxiety and hormonal disruptions.
Therefore, don’t get carried off by the aggressive marketing and advertising campaigns of the top skin care companies. As you know, whatever is applied on our skin; is literally ingested by our skin and finds its way into our body. You definitely do not want such toxic chemicals to be circulating in your bloodstream!

As a successful entrepreneur your income is derived from doing one thing and one thing only – selling your products and/or business opportunity to others. How you do this successfully is by communicating with your customer and finding out what it is they want – not you – THEM.
Spending time with them and understanding how you can help them achieve achieve what they want. Shift the focus to them and present your business opportunity honestly and effectively if you want to build a successful career in internet marketing.
Get this ingrained in your brain and never forget it.
Communication is a two lane highway – it’s about articulating your message clearly and giving your full attention and focus to your prospect. By doing this you will hear what they want you to hear, instead of what you want to hear. If you accomplish this you are well on your way to becoming a leader and others will want to work with you.
During the process of communication it is easy to send mixed messages. When this happens and conversation is misinterpreted, a breakdown occurs and the result will be a missed opportunity to connect with your prospect. Both parties will be left feeling confused and disappointed and the opportunity will be gone for you both.
Think back to the time when the business opportunity was presented to you.
What made you decide to go with your sponsor?
Did he/she keep clear lines of communication open at all times and was he/she able to answer your questions in a friendly, competent and professional manner?
Did you feel confident that this person could guide and train you to achieve the same success as they had?
Did the conversation flow and could you ask everything about the business without feeling like you were taking up too much of their valuable time.
Did they direct you to more information?
Did they inspire you?
Did you feel excited when you finished the call?
If you can answer yes to all of the above, you are definitely in the right place at the right time and that moment can indeed be quite magical. This is the real art of communicating.
When you express yourself effectively you will attract the attention and respect of others. If you are able to speak your mind and listen openly to the views of others, you will notice a difference in the way others perceive you. If you are confident and project a friendly well informed image you will command respect and attention.

Five minutes into the call I knew this client was going to make my life miserable. The problem was, I already said “Yes.”
Into every professional practice falls a little rain, or better said…walks in a nightmare client. You start losing sleep by a couple of hours every night, you keep thinking about her project during your lunch time, and you feel like your life has been taken over by this client.
What a nightmare! Didn’t we go into the business for ourselves to enjoy it? Do we not have the choice of who to work with? Of course, we do! The challenge is in recognizing a difficult client early enough to say “No.”
So how do you do that? First, determine what “difficult” means to you. It may mean different things to different people. For example, while some professionals will be happy to take a phone call from a client between 9 and 5, others may have a special time set aside for phone calls. While some business owners love getting detailed specifications for a project, others may feel trapped and limited in their creativity.
1. What is a difficult client
To help you decide what things may be important to you, here are some of the most common traits of difficult clients:
- They do not respect your time
- They tell you how to do your work
- They always check up on you
- They constantly change their mind about a project
- They knit pick over every detail
- They try to intimidate you into doing things you haven’t agreed to
- They treat you as if they’re the boss and you are the employee
- They have little respect for your expertise
- They call you at a non-scheduled time
- They frequently e-mail you with questions, requiring long replies
- They ask you to throw in a few extras without offering to pay extra
- They keep reminding you how high your fees are
- They are frequently disappointed with your work
- They won’t pay on time, but ask you to continue working with them
- They frequently cancel or reschedule your meetings
- They believe they’re your only client, & demand your full attention
You can complete this list by adding a few other traits that you find annoying or unacceptable in your business, or to your life style.
2. Red flags: Early warnings of a difficult client
Once you know what’s important to you, how do you look for signs that this may be a difficult client? First of all, listen to your intuition. It’s easy to ignore the red flags, especially if you’re hungry for business.
“Your gut is never wrong,” one IT consultant said. “Whenever I’ve ended up with a nightmare client, it’s because I didn’t listen to my instinct and I went for the zeroes.”
Listen to your instinct. Additionally, do your best to avoid clients that:
- Don’t want to sign a contract
- Are in a rush
- Are looking for the cheapest provider
- Are your friends and relatives
Create a profile of your ideal client, and check every prospect against it before taking them on. “This is crazy!” you may be thinking. “Won’t choosing clients so carefully cost me business?” Not really.
Usually, you will spend more time on a difficult client (time that you could spend prospecting, working with other clients, or simply taking a break), your mood and personal life may become affected by this project, and you may even end up not being paid at all!
Screen your prospects carefully, and instantly improve the quality of your business life.
3. Assessments – your best friend in screening clients
After reading this, you may be thinking that screening takes too much work and time. Bear with me, because this task has just become as easy as 1-2-3.
You can completely automate the screening process, by asking your prospects to complete an assessment before you take them on.
The questions you ask should include the things that are important to you as a business owner, and as a person. You may ask them about how they worked with professionals in the past, what their style of communication is, how much time they plan to devote to this project, what their deadline is, how committed they are to completing it, and so on. Refer to your ideal client profile when putting together a list of questions.
The fact that they’re willing to spend time answering an extensive list of questions already shows that this is a serious prospect, and helps you weed out as many “time-wasters” as possible.
4. Automating your screening process
So how do you actually automate the screening process? Very simple. You can use AssessmentGenerator.com, a tool that allows you to create your own forms and assessments, and have them on your web site within minutes. Whenever you get a new prospect, send them a link to your online assessment and ask them to complete it before your first call.
Assessment Generator does not require you to know any HTML or install any scripts. Simply enter your questions and the e-mail address, where you want to receive completed assessments, and it’s ready to be added to your site.
You can also create self-scoring assessments, where you and your prospect can see a score based on how they answered questions. Self-scoring assessments are great when you want to work only with clients who reached a certain level of readiness in something. For example, you may only want to work with business owners who understand the importance of marketing. Their assessment score will show you how ready they are to work with you.
Conclusion
Many professionals already conduct assessments when they first meet their clients. The problem is, they do it over the telephone, which means they have to set aside a half-hour or more to determine if this prospect is their ideal client. If he or she is not, then they have just wasted their precious time, which could’ve been spent on a more productive activity.
Automating the screening process with AssessmentGenerator.com will make your life easier and business more enjoyable. Here’s to ideal clients and a stress-free business!
