Great Deal
What is a good way for a fictional character to make a great deal of money?
My character works as an adviser to the Prime Minister of a country, so that places limits on what she can do. I was thinking that she could have used some of her own money (she had enough to be considered upper-middle class) to finance some sort of project that went on to make a great deal of money, but I wasn't sure what it could be. Any ideas?
Since this is fiction and the logistics really don't need to be explained.
While the character was in school she met this guy down the hall who worked on computers in his dorm room. She liked the guy but thought anybody who worked on computers instead studying of was little unusually. During the year he would borrow $100 here and there and several times even $400, but he always paid her back within two weeks with 100% interest. She gave up trying to give back the money, because he was adamanet about her keeping the money. So she thought nothing of it when he asked for $1000 to start his own company making computers. After all she made that much money on the loans she made to him over the year when she lived in the same dorm with him. This could be her way to give the interest money back. He then dropped out and she transfered back to school in her country so they split with her getting her money back. She had forgotten about the loan until a letter and call from her old college friend on her birthday no less asking her if she wanted a seat on his board of directors, Michael Dell's board of directors.
I read somewhere writing fiction is hard because fiction must follow rules, but non-fiction is like life, non-fiction never follows rules and ends up in unexpected places.
Cheers and good luck!

The Great Depression & The New Deal (Paperback) $13.99 The New Deal shaped our nation`s politics for decades, and was seen by many as tantamount to the "American Way" itself. Now, in this superb compact history, Eric Rauchway offers an informed account of the New Deal and the Great Depression, illuminating its successes and failures. Rauchway first describes how the roots of the Great Depression lay in America`s post-war economic policies--described as "laissez-faire with a vengeance"--which in effect isolated our nation from the world economy just when the world needed the United States most. He shows how the magnitude of the resulting economic upheaval, and the ineffectiveness of the old ways of dealing with financial hardships, set the stage for Roosevelt`s vigorous (and sometimes unconstitutional) Depression-fighting policies. Indeed, Rauchway stresses that the New Deal only makes sense as a response to this global economic disaster. The book examines a key sampling of New Deal programs, ranging from the National Recovery Agency and the Securities and Exchange Commission, to the Public Works Administration and Social Security, revealing why some worked and others did not. In the end, Rauchway concludes, it was the coming of World War II that finally generated the political will to spend the massive amounts of public money needed to put Americans back to work. And only the Cold War saw the full implementation of New Deal policies abroad--including the United Nations, the World Bank, and the International Monetary Fund. Today we can look back at the New Deal and, for the first time, see its full complexity. Rauchway captures this complexity in a remarkably short space, making this book an ideal introduction to one of the great policy revolutions in history. |

New Deal or Raw Deal? (Paperback) $20.99 A sharply critical new look at Franklin D. Roosevelt`s presidency reveals government policies that hindered economic recovery from the Great Depression -- and are still hurting America today.In this shocking and groundbreaking new book, economic historian Burton W. Folsom exposes the idyllic legend of Franklin D. Roosevelt as a myth of epic proportions. With questionable moral character and a vendetta against the business elite, Roosevelt created New Deal programs marked by inconsistent planning, wasteful spending, and opportunity for political gain -- ultimately elevating public opinion of his administration but falling flat in achieving the economic revitalization that America so desperately needed from the Great Depression. Folsom takes a critical, revisionist look at Roosevelt`s presidency, his economic policies, and his personal life.Elected in 1932 on a buoyant tide of promises to balance the increasingly uncontrollable national budget and reduce the catastrophic unemployment rate, the charismatic thirty-second president not only neglected to pursue those goals, he made dramatic changes to federal programming that directly contradicted his campaign promises. Price fixing, court packing, regressive taxes, and patronism were all hidden inside the alphabet soup of his popular New Deal, putting a financial strain on the already suffering lower classes and discouraging the upper classes from taking business risks that potentially could have jostled national cash flow from dormancy. Many government programs that are widely used today have their seeds in the New Deal. Farm subsidies, minimum wage, and welfare, among others, all stifle economic growth -- encouraging decreased productivity and exacerbating unemployment.Roosevelt`s imperious approach to the presidency changed American politics forever, and as he manipulated public opinion, American citizens became unwitting accomplices to the stilted economic growth of the 1930s.

Mafia - A Great Deal! (1)
where can i get a great deal on a cell phone online?
i ve been looking for a place online where i can get a great deal on a cell phone.
can anyone help me out?
cheers
well in a few words i will let you know how that can be done
first off, getting a cell phone is all a matter of what you consider important in a cell phone
do you want long distance plans? do you want a wireless service provider that gives you the kind of service you desire. There are actually a lot of companies and brands out there but at the end of the day you have to pick the one that comes close to providing the kind of services you seek
be it 3.0g, internet connectivity,
I personally have a list of do's and dont's that you should consider when choosing a carrier, be it sprint, verizon, alltell, and so on.
You can go online and use the search engines but in order to save time maybe you should look at my research on wireless service providers and choose for yourself which ones work for you.
cheers
