    Wouldn't it be nice if all countries could raise some capital for paying back their debts or even expanding their infrastructure? that would be nice, yes?

    If the state was to allow it's neighbors to borrow from it, and them from the neighbors, they could both 'wipe their debts' and see the amounts vindicated, as, they only owe each other, and can wipe those debts away.

    :roflol:

    Best i could come up with at such short notice!

    This is where a company controlled by owners needs capital to do things with, like pay back loans.

    If the company was to take out a loan based on collateral, it could buy other factories or business places for a little more than they are worth, then they could buy one based on a loan and some capital and collateral of their present appreciating asset, their own business premises, and then buy another, and then repeat until the amounts coming in from rent justify their own needs.

    This could also work for banks, where, like in my state capital thread, they lend each other funds, then write them off?

    If the state was in debt, there are many ways out of it, or, to reduce it.

    One such way is to have the banks buy up all the debt and then the state gives them tax reductions? this would let the state owe the internal banks, and, simply generate more money for them.

    This would see the state remunerate lost money. the money is leaving the country, but the gold is still there, meaning, that the capital or standard for issuing money is still there, or, the value of the money goes up!

    If you have a trillion's worth of gold, it is still in the vaults. this means, there must be a trillion's worth for the people to use. the more money is circulating, the more taxes there are, yes?

    Then, if lots of money is needed immediately, they could sell six months of taxes to the people that will pay tax at a reduced rate, yes? this will give immediate flop cash, or cash injection. it will give them a great deal of bulk capital!

    If the business was to observe the load on employees, it would see that the more employees it has, the greater amount of work or services it can produce, yes? This will be hard to prove without graphs or studies, but bear with me, please;

    If there are ten workers making products each day, they will be making a percentage mark up for each hour they work. the same can be said for employees with computers or managers. this means, the more people you have working for you, the more you will make, if, the demand is there.

    So, how do we create demand? samples! send samples everywhere, including the brand name of the product or service of your business. this could really work well for small businesses, yes?

    If the state wants to make quick cash, it could sell land it is going to develop itself for customers or investors. this would see a pledge and end time or time of completion for the factory or commercial building, hell, even a house or apartment block, for cash now.

    Another way to make 'quick capital' is to sell shares in your business. if you were to mark the company up in value, and then divide the shares to little bits, then you could sell those little bits at any price, making people think they have a large stake in the business - might work with the market brokers, yes?

    Or, you could, if you are a small business owner, collaborate with other small business owners from around the city to buy in bulk, sending your own wares down the price range. hell, if you were to be in a small business, and know of others that are also in a small business, collect your funds from your premises and buy a big shop, or, even franchise?

    Maybe we could all make money if money was easier to make? this could be done by observing my golden rule for money - it is only worth something if few others have it. maybe you could make some money by growing your own small business? this could be done by creating demand, but how do you create demand? well, i phones were not in demand until they released, so, maybe you have a special service where you can sell something nobody else can? like, for example, you could make money with flavored milk? you could serve it in your restaurant at a bargain price. maybe you could make money by selling money? the state could sell a billion for 999,000,000.00 without repayments - this money will just be created and circulate collecting taxes, yes?

    Maybe the state could use the people it has as human capital? i have said this before but for each person that has a working pair of hands, so much money, like the minimum wage could be set aside, yes?

    As a incentive, they could charge corporations for each employee they should have. this would mean tax on all the employees it should have, which will obviously mean that they will hire those people.

    Once they have satisfied the quota, they will have a tax decrease in some areas. this will see many more jobs!

    Everyone wants to own a business and reap the rewards as the owner, and, there are ways to take a seven hundred dollars or seven thousand rand a month job and start your own venture.

    If you were to buy a company name, then you have a business. one of the things i have heard of is to look all over the net and business areas, and find where there are goods for cheaper than normal. yes, you will be a salesman like this, but, it will be all for you! you just got to find a good price, then find an order for 'your' goods, then pay them with other people's money while still reaping a reward. this works!

    Or, you might want to use your 'capital' for an actual business? this would mean you would have to register your business at the bank and come up with a good name for it. then, you need to do some dirty work, like research the market! you need to find where there are demands, and you need to satisfy them.

    One of the things that is always in high demand is jobs, so, setting up a job recruitment where you advertise for free for them, but take a commission if they get a job, will keep you motivated and paid well, yes? there are other things too, but this one comes trumps with the others.

    Maybe if the state was to offer incentives to all top business people, they would spur or start a huge amount of private businesses? the tax on the business will be less for a certain aged business person, but, the taxes will go up in total. the state will keep taxes on the start up free for a year or something, and instead collect on income tax, of course.

    Of course, there is a new idea of mine regarding banking. everyone wants to save money, and only skim their own accounts to make ends meet. what if there was a semi fixed deposit where they could get more interest and have a with drawl limit?

    This would be like having a million rand in the bank, getting eight percent interest a year, but only being able to use like five percent of it each month.

    There are many ways to raise capital, but here is another one.

    If you were to have a business, and you want to make it grow, then you need to invest, or, get investments. maybe you could take your business on paper to the bank and get them to invest, in the form of a loan? this would leave your business as surety against the fall of your loan or failure of your business.

    The difference between the normal loan and this loan is that you need to get everything approved by the bank, making it as if the bank was a part owner of the business, and limiting your 'power' over the business. this would be a good idea if you are old and want to sell your business some day soon.

    Alternatively, you could pay the bank for the administration, and then see them pay you back double what you put in if it works, with them taking a share of the profits. this is a low risk idea or 'loan.'

    Yet another way to raise capital would be to observe the repossession rate in the country. understanding this would lead to a better idea of how successful companies are that go into business, yes?

    If the repossession rate is so and such a percentage, then it would be an indicator of how successful the small businesses are. i am not sure if they should refer to the amount of businesses that succeed, or, the gross amount of revenue brought in through repaid loans, but, if there are many businesses performing, and the gross is down, then they need to limit the amounts able to be borrowed through loans.

    Another way to raise quick capital would be to list your business on the stock exchange. then, you would make the stocks worth more than they are, slightly turning up the value by buying your own stocks, then selling them to yourself. this will create the illusion of activity, and interest in your company.

    To raise capital you need to have something to sell. if you have nothing to sell, you need to look around or get a clue. if you still don't have a clue, you could look into the paper or better yet trends in the financial times or whatever.

    So, you get something that is in need. the good news is, the more something is in need, the more oversupplied something else is. this means, of course, if motor car engines are in demand, then naturally something else is oversupplied, like 'car outsides' or 'frames.' the more engines you supply, the more frames you will need eventually, of course.

    So, there will never be a shortage of things in need. the more you manufacture, the more jobs you create, the more people there are to buy your goods from you, and your employees will have more to buy from them. this is circular, of course.

    If you want to sell something, find out what is in demand. then, you go to the net, and find out how much it will cost to supply this at your own costs. if it is a 'winning combination' then go for it! you do not need the bank for this! if your price is good enough, you can ask for some of the money up front for the deal, and, then you can basically use someone else's money to buy them their goods, and you keep the rest!

    Of course, as you continue to do this, you will find that you will start to attract long term customers. this will launch you into a position where you can manufacture your own goods instead of buying them, and make lots more money, of course.

    Thanks to a chain letter i sent out last week, it seems there are going to be a lot more businesses that will start up. now, the banks need to roll this into a profit, and they will, but why not gain more capital from various sources to help 'lend out' the money?

    Of course, as a bank, there are many ways to make money. if there was going to be yet another way to raise quick capital, i am sure the banks would be the ideal persons to give it to, as they do not squander like the state, nor are the self serving like the people. instead, they work with many different persons and therefore need the most money.

    So, if you want the bank to make more money, the bank needs to try to give away more credit cards. this will mean the bank can lend out all it's money, as, the amount owed to it will be greater. if the bank was to offer out more credit cards, then the 'imaginary money' known as credit will circulate back to them. let me explain;

    If the bank lends out a hundred rand, and then it goes to peter jackson, then mr peter jackson spends it at some place, and it goes back to the bank, or, another bank. this means if the banks are evenly matched, as they nearly are in my country, they are drawing certain amounts just to have the person that is selling the services to stick it back to them!

    I wonder if this will influence banking practices? credit will be so easy to manufacture - the more money the bank lends out, the more it gets back!

    If we were to look at forex, the currency trading site that services most of the currency traders, then we would understand that money changes value very quickly - the trick it to buy something everyone else is buying, yes?

    The best way to buy into some currency and then sell it at a profit, is to buy something that is productive, like german, japanese or chinese currency, while it is down. if you plan correctly you could sell it once everyone starts buying it, but, you could also try to fluctuate the price by keeping it, if it is enough to create scarcity.

    Needless to say, the currency of a small country changes more than that of a large producer. it is a bad idea to buy currency from customer countries like england and america, as, they are customers with little product or produce - they do not make much. so, it would be a good idea to buy some currency from a small producer nation, like south africa, when the currency is down - it has too many foreign influences to remain down for long, so look for countries that have been outsourced to, yes?

    Can we take the benefit without making products by the hands of ourselves?

    I believe that scenario is called "old money."

    To make money super fast in the stock market, you need to raise capital first. this can be done in the form of a loan, and, if it pays off, there will be more money in the bank account for others to borrow from, as, the bank will have more money.

    The way banks usually work is to make sure there is enough money in other people's accounts for the person who needs a loan to borrow by some scheme or something. that means, of course, other people are using your money at any given time!

    This may lead to banks folding, as, if they run out of money due to loans, they will, well, fold.

    Which leads me to my newest idea! if the banks were to divide the accounts into 'creditors' and 'debtors,' there will be a way to balance it. basically, they are taking the money from the people depositing money into the accounts and lending it out. now if they have two divisions, they can more easily find a happy middle road as surety - surety that they do not go over the 'limits.' a while ago, i read somewhere that hedge funds will allow the banks to spend up to eighty percent more than they have! this means it is dangerous to all involved with the bank.

    This means the banks need to find a way not to fail, then they can do what they want, or, they need to play it much safer. at any moment, there are transactions going through between businesses where the one will be spending euros to buy yaun, or something. of course, if the business is having a sale, or sell wet suites in spring, then their currency will become more valuable, as, the other business or person buying those suites will be purchasing in their currency.

    That means a country like china, that exports so many things, as they are 'producers,' will have the most stable currency. of course, they are still the supplier, but they will still be stable as they export so much.

    Then there are countries like malaysia that make electronics more than china. although a poor currency, i cannot see them going out of business soon, so, it would be wise to invest in their currency, of course.

    Now, to 'ride the waves from day to day,' it would be wiser still to change your currency backing by changing your currency you hold onto by changing to the one that is having morning orders currently, as, you will gain steadily throughout the day, of course.
