Helpful Ways Parents Can Support Their Kids Overseas

September 15, 2020 by Grant Leave a Comment

We can help our children get through their school years, their first heartbreak, learning to drive and help them get to grips with getting older, but when they decide to head overseas and discover the world and a bit more about themselves, it’s normal for us parents to feel a little concerned.

It’s not always easy to support your children (no matter how old they may be) whilst they’re overseas or on the other side of the world. Heading abroad means potential language barriers, culture shock, independence and of course homesickness. All of these things are enough to keep any parent awake at night.

Thankfully, there are some ways parents can support their kids overseas. Read on to find out more.

Money

Sometimes unexpected money issues can arise when we’re overseas and being there to help them out of a sticky financial situation, or allow them to treat themselves can bring a lot of comfort to parents. Transferring money abroad can often be complicated and expensive, especially if you fail to compare transfer rates – for more information on how to send money to Australia from NZ, click the link.

Don’t get caught out by extortionate fees or unreliable providers. Always conduct plenty of research before you move your money.

Schedule a weekly time to catch up

Being able to catch up and see each others’ faces can bring great comfort and support to both of you. Especially if your child is feeling a little homesick. While it’s important to give your child space when they’re exploring the world and having their own adventures, there’s also an element of safety to consider. If you schedule a time to chat and catch up each week then you can take into account their plans and take comfort from the fact they’re clearly enjoying themselves.

Try not to project your own doubts onto them

It’s easy to say that you miss them greatly, it’s part of being a parent! However, telling your child that you miss them and you can’t stand them being away from you, how you’re worried they’re not coping or how you want them to be safe at home can cast doubt over their travel plans. It might not be intentional, but you could be knocking their confidence. Just let them know that you can’t wait to see them when they return!

Go through their budget with them

If this is the first time your child/young adult has had any kind of independence, they may need help with their budgeting. Money is spent incredibly quickly overseas, so helping them budget how much they’re going to need and how they can save money during their travels is a simple yet effective way to support them.

And finally, do you own research

Often, it’s the fear of the unknown that has us worried. And the idea of your child heading off to a foreign country you know nothing about can ring all kinds of alarm bells. The best way to combat this is to conduct your own research into their destination. Find out what’s so great about it and why it’s so popular with backpackers. Don’t be tempted to look into the negatives of their chosen destination, you’ll find those in any country!

Today, here I will give you some of the solutions which will be helpful for you majorly in your whole career of sales tax filing.

Saving More Time

Keep all your information in one file, when you have everything ready in one place then you will be able to save more time. Time is money, as they say, filing sales tax anyways consumes a lot of money so if you manage to save some time by keeping all documents in a single file then it will help you to use your time even more efficiently. Things that you can do beforehand keep it up to date such as,

  • Sales tax rates,
  • Appropriate Taxability Status
  • Collection on Due Dates
  • Put all Sales Tax related questions in one place

Stay Organised

Now no longer you find any table stacked with sales tax files, it is just one paper that you need to keep ready and handy so that whenever you need it, you get in along. When you have a better tax solution, you will have everything organized and handy, this will alos save some time and some money.

Lower Your Risks

You must have the ability to identify a problem before it arrives and solve a problem before it actually becomes a problem. All the updated information must remain up to date in your file.

How to Plan a Sales Tax Filing?

There re no such specific ways, but there are some ways in which you can try to organize your work which will make your work easier.

Choose the Correct Platform

These are some of the things that you must work on if you wish to maintain your sales tax filing very easily. Most states initially send preprinted tax returns to taxpayers unless the taxpayer has registered for e-file status. These are solely determined by the state where the company has been established. If you have any questions in mind regarding the types of business or the kind of form that should be filled, then you can contact the state to confirm.

Entering the Data

Sales tax reporting are tough unless you do them all by yourself, it will be your decision to determine what to include in the filing and what not. If someone represents the sales of your company then you should have an open chat and discuss how things are happening and where do you need to take an extra edge. Be very careful while entering the data in the system because the misplace of one number or one data can cost you enough.

File the Return

Last but the most important step is to make the file and conclude it properly. Paper filing is fine who have a very small business and a very small amount of sales tax to be filed. When when we talk of the giant fishes, it becomes not very normal to file on paper. In such cases, you do need a soft copy and some more paper to keep as proof of hard copy.

Conclusion

These are the basic information that you need to keep in mind while filing the tax, but apart from that, you can also check the sales tax filing rules of the state where you are eligible. The sales tax varies from state to state hence check which state are you eligible for.

3 Fun Backyard Games to Play

September 8, 2020 by Grant Leave a Comment

Growing up, you might have played many different backyard games, but these days a lot of kids tend to hang out inside, playing video games, staring at the TV, or their phones. One study, published in JAMA Pediatrics revealed that nearly half of preschoolers lacked even one parent-supervised outdoor play session a day. On average those aged 10 to 16 spent just 12.6 minutes per day on vigorous outdoor activity.

Getting outside is not only fun, it also brings a wealth of health benefits. Whether you just purchased one of the Los Angeles homes for sale or you’ve lived in your home for years, the backyard can be your ideal oasis for doing things like running, jumping, and catching that provide important aerobic exercise while helping your kids build motor skills. They’ll burn calories, which helps to prevent obesity and strengthen their bones and muscles too. Plus, getting outside in the sunshine helps strengthen the immune system and even boosts happiness levels.

With that said, there are some backyard games that are fun for both kids and adults to play, perhaps even bringing back some fun memories at the same time. The whole family can reap the benefits and have a good time together.

Cornhole

Cornhole is a classic game, essentially a beanbag toss with the goal to toss the beanbag into the hole. All you need are eight to 10 bean bags and two pieces of plywood that are tilted at an angle on opposite ends. As the object is to toss the bean bags through the holes, you’ll want to cut a single hole through each piece of plywood, closer to the higher end. You can also buy a cornhole set at most toy stores or online. A customizable set provides even more fun as the kids can decorate their platforms. It also means a variety of ages can play the game simply by lowering or raising the difficulty level by changing the distance between the platforms or increasing the angle.

Freeze Tag

Similar to the original Tag game, this one varies in that the players who are tagged have to stay just as they are, standing in place as if they’re “frozen” until they’re “unfrozen.” You need to have at least three people to play, but the more, the better, making it ideal for larger groups. One person is “It” and has the responsibility of catching others. When “It” tags another player, that person is then “frozen” and can only be unfrozen if another active player tags him again. There are lots of variations on the game, like Freeze ‘TV’ Tag. In this version, to unfreeze someone you have to shout out the name of a TV show when you tag them. If you name one that’s already been called, you’re then frozen too. It can be played using just about anything, like animal names, cartoon characters, books, and so on.

Nine Pin

Nine Pin is a bowling game, only you don’t need a bowling ball or official pins. It dates back thousands of years, yet it’s still a fun backyard game today. It’s like bowling, so if you’ve ever bowled before you already know how to play, the only difference is you’ll use nine pins rather than 10. They can be anything from 2-liter soda bottles to empty milk cartons, just set them up in a diamond shape. You’ll also need a plastic ball heavy enough to knock them over. The rules are simple, a point for every pin knocked down and the player with the most points at the end wins.

How Tech Improvements Are Changing the Sports We Love

September 8, 2020 by Grant Leave a Comment

Sports are one of the most popular forms of entertainment for the masses, therefore, as technological innovations continue to arrive at lightning pace, it’s hardly surprising the games we love are also embracing the latest technological advances. Some are intended to improve fairness and transparency, while others are aimed at feeding our desire for data, analyzing every movement that athletes make.

VAR in the Leading Soccer Competitions

Aimed at reducing the number of controversial refereeing decisions in soccer, it’s perhaps fair to say that Video Assistant Refereeing (VAR) has been met with a mixed reaction. The use of technology in other walks of life is widely accepted, although in soccer, the implementation of VAR has brought widespread debate amongst fans of the sport.

The concept was introduced to ensure that whenever needed, match referees can consult video replays of any incidents during play. Given the speed of soccer and the need for accuracy, it’s not uncommon to find that referees increasingly rely on replays to check their decisions. This has inevitably led to lengthy pauses during games, while plays are reviewed before a referee makes his or her final decision.

Liverpool are priced +225 betting odds to win the Premier League again this season, although as they prepare to defend their crown, they will hope to attract a little less attention from VAR conspiracy theorists. Some fans of other teams regularly claimed they received favorable decisions more frequently, however, statistics proved that refereeing decisions were very balanced overall using the new technology.

Nevertheless, having only been in widespread use for the last couple of years, whether it’s in top-level UEFA competitions throughout Europe or the successful implementation demonstrated by the Major League Soccer in North America; the game itself is gradually adapting and improving the use of this technology.

Puck & Player Tracking in the NHL

The 2020-21 season will become the first in which the NHL fully deploys Puck and Player Tracking technology. The original plan was to have the new systems in place at all 31 NHL arenas by September 2019, ready for the 2019-20 season. But the league changing technology partners led to delays.

Successful trials at recent All-Star games have already given viewers a taste of what to expect, with the systems having taken several years to design and perfect. Indeed, putting electronics in an ice hockey puck was challenging to design, given the beating those things take and the temperatures on the ice itself.

According to the original NHL announcement in 2019, there will be up to 16 antennae placed above the rinks at arenas, monitoring every inch of the ice. The pucks will feature real-time tracking at a rate of 2,000 times per second, providing laser accuracy when following movement, while players will also wear monitors within their uniforms, providing data for all their actions.

Not only does this huge amount of data bring head coaches and GMs a host of new analytics information, viewers at home and at arenas can also follow the data with live apps via their mobile devices. Broadcasters will also have access to all this data, which could revolutionize how they present live games, while sportsbooks will be able to offer more betting markets than ever before.

The Human Touch

No matter how much new technology our favorite sports implement, the central focus of our attention should always be the individual athletes and competing teams. That remains the biggest challenge as we plunge into an era where everything is scrutinized and analyzed. What we can’t forget is that while data is important, human instincts and talents are sometimes unquantifiable, which is perhaps the very essence of sport itself.

How Real Estate Agents Can Persevere During Tough Times

August 26, 2020 by Grant Leave a Comment

Like any other market, the real estate market has its ups and downs. Sometimes, the market is on fire, and it seems as if leads and sales just walk through your door. Other times, the market is tougher. In good times or bad ones, marketing for real estate is incredibly important. That being said, when the economy or real estate market is slower, it is even more important.

Thankfully, there are many proven strategies that can help a real estate agent survive, even in the toughest market. Here’s a look at some of those techniques.

Leverage Your Social Media

There is no question that there are absolutely incredible and easy ways that real estate agents can take advantage of social media. Of course, done wrong, social media can not only be a giant time suck, but it can hurt your image and make you look too desperate.

So, how can you use social media to your advantage?

  • Set up a separate Facebook page for your real estate presence. While there is nothing wrong with leveraging your personal profile from time to time, you don’t want to overdo it – people who are interested in your listings or content can like your page. This is an easy trap for realtors to fall into.
  • Don’t just use social media to sell. Instead, use social media to give out value-added content, like advice on selling, the best ways to present your home for sale, and more.
  • Remember, these days, images rule. Take advantage of Instagram or Pinterest, and use those services to drive traffic back to your website.

When it comes to social media use and marketing for real estate, remember, you need to make sure that you create interesting content that contains great advice and keeps people engaged. This will ensure that people come back to you when it is time for them to buy or sell a house, or make a recommendation to a friend about the same.

Send Thoughtful Postcards

It is counterintuitive, but marketing in the real estate market often has nothing to do with actually selling. Instead, it is about making a solid connection with customers – or prospective customers – and making sure that they think of you when the time comes to sell your house.

One way to do that is to send postcards. These cards don’t have to be about home sales – in fact, they shouldn’t be. Instead, they should be about building a genuine connection with someone, doing something nice for them, and making sure they know that you value a relationship with someone beyond a simple sale. There are many types of postcards you can send. For example, wisepelican.com has fantastic and timely examples that contain positive messages. They also have a variety of templates that you can customize and personalize.

Whatever you do, remember, this aspect of marketing is about building a relationship with someone.

Be A Source of Information

As a realtor, you likely know a great deal about a topic that is hugely important, complex, and difficult for outsiders to understand. This puts you in a position where you can successfully use your knowledge to help other people.

As such, put yourself out there. Make sure that others know you are a source of information. How can you do that? Easy: Ask. You can leverage all of your networks – like your social media network – and make sure that people know you are available to answer questions. You should also make sure that you are using your social media to answer common questions and give advice. This will help position you as an expert in the field of real estate, and this, in turn, will help make people ask you more questions.

Additionally, it may be a wise idea to hold basic seminars or webinars. These can be on common real estate-related topics, like “Selling Your Home 101” or “Why This Is the Best Time to Buy.” Make registration free and no commitment. This not only enables you to be a source of information but can help you collect Email addresses that you can use at a later date.

Volunteer

Don’t underestimate the value of volunteering in your community. There are a variety of ways to do this, but the best is to find a popular non-profit that is relevant to you or your community. You can also join a local Chamber of Commerce and use those connections to give back to the community. Not only will volunteering enable you to do a good thing, but it gives you opportunities to network within the community at large. It is also a great way of getting your name out there.

Leverage Your Network

As a realtor, you probably know quite a few people, including customers, brokers, other agents, repair services, cleaning services, and more. That network can be very useful. When someone is looking for a recommendation, always make sure to chime in with someone you know and respect.

That person may thank you for a recommendation later down the line by returning the favor. Leveraging your network the right way also allows you to position yourself as someone who knows people. This will keep people coming to you, looking for help with their various projects, and that means that your name will get out there more.

Conclusion

Marketing can be exceptionally difficult during the best of times, but in a downturn, it can be a nightmare. That is why it is vitally important that you are always marketing and building relationships. This can help make sure you always have a steady flow of business – even during difficult real estate markets.

What if the Supply Chain Stopped? Victor Restis and the International Shipping Industry Says No Way!

August 4, 2020 by Grant Leave a Comment

The global supply chain and the ships, vessels, and people behind the scenes are truly impressive. Think about it: 2-million seafarers, millions more on the docks, in the warehouses, driving the trucks and the administrative staff behind it all – Victor Restis in among them. As President of Enterprises Shipping & Trading S.A., he oversees nearly every aspect of his global shipping enterprise. I am in awe of people with this level of leadership and ability to see the minutia of every single touchpoint along a massive, global supply chain. Fred Smith of FedEx, Jeff Bezos of Amazon, and other high-profile executives running seemingly impossible logistics are mind-boggling.

With the level of importance to the survival of people across the globe, international shipping doesn’t nearly get the credit it rightfully deserves. And to think of the thousands of touchpoints that could fail, causing clogs in the system sends shivers down my spine. Think of it, a mass disruption to the global supply chain would create havoc as we’ve never seen before. The article points out that the most valuable asset in a functioning supply chain is human resources. So, when COVID-19 sent many people home, closed down businesses, and made people sick, the threat to international shipping became extremely real. It’s the people behind the machines that make this system function.

The article discusses quick decision making that leads to further protections of shipping’s prized resource and allows the system to keep moving strong. I assume there was a “next man up” mentality where if somebody fell ill to COVID-19, there was another ready to jump in and take the helm. Or, more likely, is that others jumped in to not only do their jobs but to fill the gaps of others who were taken out by the virus. Either scenario is tough to consider, given the nature and physical requirements of the shipping industry. I don’t think this is a cushy job. It is physically and mentally demanding. Seafarers are always from their homes and families for extended periods and are out at sea for weeks (somebody has to save Tom Hanks).

I would love to have been a fly on the wall of the International Maritime Employer’s Council when COVID-19 hit the fan. It must have been a giant thinktank faced with an invisible enemy that was disrupted across the globe. Though people didn’t think about it, I bet the executives were concerned about how the world would react if food and supplies couldn’t be shipped, not just on time, but not at all.

Steven Fisackerly – Taking Control of Your Own Carbon Footprint Starts at Home. Here Are Three Considerations For Making Your Home More Energy Efficient

August 4, 2020 by Grant Leave a Comment

Climate change is a very real issue. Since scientific recordings detecting ozone thinning from excessive use of CFS gases contained in various home devices from the 1970’s the larger issue of carbon emissions has only become common knowledge in the last decade.

Something so vital to our very existence on the planet was perhaps so great, contradicting the evidence seemed to some as a means of shelving the concern that the global community faced.
Despite this, more and more people are lobbying governments to take action and making personal decisions as a means of improving the way we treat our environment.

Climate change researcher, Steven Fisackerly, has made studies into the impact household energy consumption has on global temperatures. He makes a compelling case that on something so devastating to sustained life on earth, the opportunity to make small amendments at home can have great consequences if played out across a national scale.

Here are 4 ways to reduce energy consumption at home.

Change all light sources to LED


Incandescent light bulbs contribute to 30% of energy consumption in an average home, recent studies conclude.
Considering the heat alone from a 60w lightbulb can fry an egg in 20 minutes demonstrates the energy emitted from a single light source is extremely high.
Thankfully the range and availability of LED light bulbs across retailers provides a simple solution to this issue. Available with various color temperatures, incandescent light bulbs should be discontinued from any household.

Insulate windows and loft


During winter months, temperatures across the UK have been known to plummet to minus figures. Considering the rising energy costs and the ever more demand for keeping homes warm, insulating the home is perhaps the most important thing one can do to keep warm.
It is a given that most homes have some form of roof insulation. However, extending insulating measures inside walls like applying double glazing can reduce the usage of radiators by 6 hours per day. Annual savings of £3k in an average household can cover the expense of double glazing.


Low setting for boiler


Water boilers are an essential aspect of all households. In light of our reliance and high usage they are prone to disrepair regularly.
For this reason and counter intuitively, keeping a boiler operating all day but at a low setting of 14 degrees can greatly benefit its life span and maintain a healthy level of accumulative heat.

The temptation to burst the temperature up during cold snaps in winter months can exhaust components and creates a high stress on energy provision. Power stations employ strategies to cater for these surges. By altering one’s treatment of boilers, we can save power plants energy creation by 40% per quarter annum. It also saves the cost of repair and replacements.

How Fred Brisker Rose To The Top of Business

August 4, 2020 by Grant Leave a Comment

I am often inspired by those around me and one person who has certainly been an inspiring future to me since I launched my business is the highly successful CEO Fred Brisker. Fred has worked in a number of businesses and he is widely seen as a fixer, someone who can come in and turn a company’s fortunes around. Fred is someone who I have always kept an eye on because he was actually born not too far from me, and that is why I have tried to become inspired by people like him.

To me there is something about being inspired by someone who you ‘know’ rather than someone who appears untouchable like a Warren Buffett or a Bill Gates, and here is how Fred got to where he is.

Relationships

Worked for Fred very briefly when I was younger and he was always ready to offer some sage advice to those who would listen, and I can always remember him telling me about the importance of relationships in business, something which I try to remember myself. The idea is that the more friendships and positive relationships which you have in business, the better you will be, even if they are your competition. This has served Fred very well throughout his career.

Basics

Everyone who I have ever ran into who has worked alongside Fred has told me about how simple his method of working is and how this is what helps him to rescue so many companies. The reasons why so many companies go wrong is because they forget the basics of business and sales, simple principles which if remembered, will form the core of the company.Some businesses however will forget this and that is where they have difficulty. Fred is someone who has these beliefs and basic values ingrained in him and that is why he has gained such a great reputation for helping companies out. His business principles can be clearly seen when you think of the range of sectors which he has worked in, it doesn’t matter if they sell cars, buildings or school books, he can use his principles to help out.

Hard Work

Something else which you will often hear about Fred is that he has a work ethic which is unshakable and there is absolutely no doubt in my mind that this is a large part of the reason that he is where he is. We talk about this a lot in business, the need to work hard, but the reality is that so few do and they expect to find success without first putting the effort in. Fred is proof of the fact that if you are prepared to put the hard yards in, then success is more likely to come your way.

Fred has taken tough decisions, for good or bad, he has worked hard and that is how he has managed to get to the very top.
