Finance Management Insights Definition of Finance: "Student's perceptions are catching up with reality. As college
juniors and seniors are about to embark on life after college, they're
starting to realize they could use more credit education information and
resources to help make smart financial decisions. It's critical for
college students to learn responsible personal finance management early
to build a strong credit history, which they'll need to help establish
their lives after college." "Finance is the art of passing currency from hand to hand until it finally disappears." - Robert W. Sarnoff "I have never been in a situation where having money made it worse." - Clinton Jones The IRS spends God knows how much of your tax money on these toll-free information hot lines staffed by IRS employees, whose idea of a dynamite tax tip is that you should print neatly. If you ask them a real tax question, such as how you can cheat, they're useless. So, for guidance, you want to look to big business. Big business never pays a nickel in taxes, according to Ralph Nader, who represents a big consumer organization that never pays a nickel in taxes - Dave Barry The honest poor can sometimes forget poverty. The honest rich can never forget it. - G. K. Chesterton A dollar saved is a quarter earned. - John Ciardi The hardest thing in the world to understand is the income tax. - Albert Einstein If money is your hope for independence you will never have it. The only real security that a man will have in this world is a reserve of knowledge, experience, and ability. - Henry Ford The highest use of capital is not to make more money, but to make money do more for the betterment of life. - Henry Ford I'm proud to be paying taxes in the United States. The only thing is - I could be just as proud for half the money. - Arthur Godfrey Everything in the world may be endured except continued prosperity. - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe Only the little people pay taxes. - Leona Helmsley, hotel owner and prison inmate, 1989 I figure you have the same chance of winning the lottery whether you play or not. - Fran Lebowitz I owe the government $3400 in taxes. So I sent them two hammers and a toilet seat. - Michael McShane Every day I get up and look through the Forbes list of the richest people in America. If I'm not there, I go to work. - Robert Orben We haven't the money, so we've got to think.- Lord Rutherford It is better to have a permanent income than to be fascinating. - Oscar Wilde Ordinary riches can be stolen, real riches cannot. In your soul are infinitely precious things that cannot be taken from you. - Oscar Wilde I'm living so far beyond my income that we may almost be said to be living apart. - EE Cummings "No matter how rich you become, how famous or powerful, when you die the size of your funeral will still pretty much depend on the weather." - Michael Pritchard "I told the Inland Revenue I didn't owe them a penny because I lived near the seaside." - Ken Dodd "If you owe the bank $100 that's your problem. If you owe the bank $100 million, that's the bank's problem." - John Paul Getty "Money is better than poverty, if only for financial reasons." - Woody Allen "Alexander Hamilton originated the put and take system in our national treasury: the taxpayers put it in, and the politicians take it out." - Will Rogers "My formula for success is rise early, work late and strike oil." - John Paul Getty "Money is the opposite of the weather. Nobody talks about it, but everybody does something about it." - Rebecca Johnson "Money can't buy friends, but it can get you a better class of enemy." - Spike Milligan Financial education needs to become a part of our national curriculum and scoring systems so that it’s not just the rich kids that learn about money.. it’s all of us. - David Bach Before you can really start setting financial goals, you need to determine where you stand financially. - David Bach The basic prescription for preventing deflation is straightforward, at least in principle: Use monetary and fiscal policy as needed to support aggregate spending, in a manner as nearly consistent as possible with full utilization of economic resources and low and stable inflation. In other words, the best way to get out of trouble is not to get into it in the first place.- Ben Bernanke The sources of deflation are not a mystery. Deflation is in almost all cases a side effect of a collapse of aggregate demand.. a drop in spending so severe that producers must cut prices on an ongoing basis in order to find buyers. - Ben Bernanke There’s no denying that a collapse in stock prices today would pose serious macroeconomic challenges for the United States. Consumer spending would slow, and the U.S. economy would become less of a magnet for foreign investors. Economic growth, which in any case has recently been at unsustainable levels, would decline somewhat. History proves, however, that a smart central bank can protect the economy and the financial sector from the nastier side effects of a stock market collapse. - Ben Bernanke Mr. Greenspan did a very good job in the early 1990’s. But recently he’s fallen prey to this crazy theory that prosperity causes inflation. So they’re trying to slow the economy down by raising interest rates. It’s like a doctor saying you’re in great health, so we have to make you sick a little bit. It’s a bizarre theory. It’s going to hurt our economy. - Steve Forbes I'm quite worried about the fiscal imbalances that we've got and what that might mean in terms of financial crisis ahead. - Bill Gates It has been my experience that competency in mathematics, both in numerical manipulations and in understanding its conceptual foundations, enhances a person's ability to handle the more ambiguous and qualitative relationships that dominate our day-to-day financial decision-making. - Alan Greenspan Any informed borrower is simply less vulnerable to fraud and abuse. - Alan Greenspan To succeed, you will soon learn, as I did, the importance of a solid foundation in the basics of education-literacy, both verbal and numerical, and communication skills. - Alan Greenspan The reason I entered the election race was to promote reforms. For us who engage in business, we will be severely affected if financial and structural reforms don't proceed. - Takafumi Horie A big part of financial freedom is having your heart and mind free from worry about the what-ifs of life. - Suze Orman Owning a home is a keystone of wealth.. both financial affluence and emotional security. - Suze Orman After you marry, every asset either of you acquires is jointly held. That's why you both need to be in sync on your long-term financial goals, from paying off the mortgage to putting away for retirement. Ideally, you should talk about all this before you wed. If you don't, you can end up deeply frustrated and financially spent. - Suze Orman In all realms of life it takes courage to stretch your limits, express your power, and fulfill your potential.. it's no different in the financial realm. -Suze Orman A weak currency is the sign of a weak economy, and a weak economy leads to a weak nation. - Ross Perot Debt has become a part of who we are. - Dave Ramsey The most important thing for a young man is to establish a credit.. a reputation, character. - John D. Rockefeller Business is not financial science, it's about trading.. buying and selling. It's about creating a product or service so good that people will pay for it. - Anita Roddick The pace at eBay was frantic and urgent. We knew that if we didn't move fast, somebody would come into the market and quash us. Participant doesn't make a lot of sense from a financial investment perspective, so it's unlikely that other people will be approaching the business in the same way. So you see less urgency; you see a thoroughness and willingness to spend extra time to get things right. Which I think is really important. - Jeff Skoll Whenever there is a a financial crisis, it is always the banks that get hit. - Gordon Wu “We want to expand our investment banking activities especially in
risk management and financing,” - David Wright
“We want this center to bring together the people who devise new ways to save energy, those who finance their development, the manufacturers who make the products, and the industries and consumers who buy and benefit from them. The effective management of energy costs is increasingly important as companies strive to maintain a competitive edge. The center looks forward to helping California businesses measure and mitigate these costs, and manage the competitive risks associated with energy price volatility.” - Andrew Hargadon "The timing of this financing is opportune. It allows us to pursue the acquisition of the properties, which, once completed, management believes can be put into production faster than other comparable zinc projects." - Michael Judson “Movaris' customers require technology to automate tens, to hundreds of thousands of control activities across multiple worldwide business units and manage large volumes of changes in those activities. Certainty delivers broad Financial Control Management functionality to automate the day-to-day work performed in finance organizations, such as enforcing corporate policies, GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles), Sarbanes-Oxley, and other regulations.” - Eric Keller “I am therefore stepping aside as Minister of Finance and Chair of Management Board of Cabinet pending a resolution of this issue,” - Greg Sorbara “Another name that's probably been kicked around by fears over interest rates. It's well off its high. It's a leader in the consumer finance business. At the end of this year, it will have produced 25 consecutive years of earnings increases. That's a pretty impressive record with a rock-solid management, selling at about 15 or 16 times next year's numbers. So it looks like a pretty good deal to me.” - David Brady “In this case, it's a stealth bull market. You can make money buying stocks of good, understandable businesses - good being defined as good balance sheets, good rates of growth, good management, no off-balance-sheet financing. No nonsense.” - Harvey Eisen “The world must help us, and the world must help us finance city management,” - Paolo Costa “This looks like a knock-out bid as the management, in our view, would be unable to raise the additional finance.” - Richard Ratner “We have seen a recklessness in the management of state government and finance that has been unprecedented.” - Doug Forrester “It's a very good job hunting season. The average starting salary for accounting and finance majors is around $35,000, for business and management majors it's $36,000 and computer sciences majors top the charts at $46,000 average starting salaries.” - Tim McDonough “Brian's proven track record in all aspects of finance and accounting strongly positions Stanley to build on our steady organic growth, while continuing to successfully execute on additional key strategic acquisitions in the future. We're excited to have him as part of the management team and we look forward to drawing upon both his and Mike's market experience to drive additional strategic opportunities for Stanley moving forward.” - Phil Nolan “Lisa brings nearly 25 years of national and international marketing and management experience to Young Brothers. Her extensive knowledge of pricing strategies, sales, finance, trade statistics and logistics makes her valuable to our organization. We're very pleased to welcome her to our team, and look forward to her contributions to our commitment to excellent customer service.” - Vic Angoco “We have seen quite a few people walk away from deals after the management rejects it. Interest rates are going up. Debt financing is costing more, so that's going to put a bit of pressure on what people can bid for.” - Stuart Fraser “Steve is an accomplished senior executive with a rich skill set, including consumer brand building, media, marketing, operations, people management, finance and technology. He also brings a great blend of start-up and high-growth business experiences.” - Kevin Johnson “Management was a bigger concern to us than the finances. The reclamation just wasn't being done despite several amended agreements.” - Tom Rathbun "We have over 100 people on our ownership reservation list, and we just opened! People recognize the unique convergence of this amazing location with a veteran developer seasoned in the financing, construction and management of these highly sought after properties. The sales office could have a relatively short life as we expect to be sold out by spring of 2006." - Rob Haiman To learn more about Finance Management Visit: International Institute of Management - Finance management Courses Online and in Las Vegas, USA
