Easy and valuable tips for successfully building your business with Twitter

1. Twitter is a place where people share information about themselves and other aspects of their lives and their specific niche. Because of this, it is important not to spam. If, in error, you are banned the possibility of building your business with Twitter will be exhausted.

2. You should follow people and not only have followers. The more people you follow and the more followers you have, and the higher your exposure will be.

3. Post information and share comments as often as possible. Posting may be time consuming but worth the time and efforts when you reap the benefits. Commenting or reply to other member posts is also recommended.

4. The saying goes, “Garbage in, garbage out.” Post information followers can benefit from.

5. Build your collection of followers. You may be intimidated by knowing this but the task is not as difficult as you think. Links to your Twitter ID can be placed on your own website and also in the signature in forums and message boards used for promotion of your website.

6. Follow as many people as possible. Try to balance the number of people following you to the number of people you are following.

It can be a real challenge to spend our money wisely, especially tax refunds, which may seem like free money! With the average American tax refund at $3,036, it’s tempting to blow it on something fun. However, every astute financial planner, adviser, banker, broker and financial journalist will tell you: If you're getting a refund, you're doing it all wrong.

By definition, a tax refund means you're giving the government an interest-free loan.  If you want to get less in a reund, you should reduce the amount of money the government withholds from your paycheck.  To do so, you can increase the number of exemptions you claim.  It' usually smarter to save the extra money all year long and earn interest on it yourself.

Additionally, instead of spending your refund on a new outfir or big screen TV, here are some ways to generate future value and accelerate your progress to financial freedom:

* Start saving a down payment for a revenue property.  By choosing the right property, the rental revenue will cover your mortgage payments and your equity will increase month after month.

* Invest in your professional development.  Take a course or attend a conference that will help advance your career.  YOU will always be your best investment.

* Do a home renovation. Investing in strategic home improvements can significantly boost the value of your home, build your net worth and transform your living space into the dream you've always wanted.

* Make a charitable contribution.  Not only will you be helping a worthy cause, you'll lower your tax bill for next year.

As you know, a fixed mortgage has a rate that’s locked in for a set number of years, while an Adjustable Mortgage has a rate that floats with market conditions. On average over time, you’ll usually come out ahead with an Adjustable Mortgage. One study suggests that between 1950 and 2009, 90% of the time it was better to have chosen variable over fixed.

The reason for this is the premium banks charge on fixed mortgages. For a bank to guarantee a rate for 5, 10 or 25 years, it’s taking a risk that Rates will rise during that time, resulting in the bank losing money. To reduce this risk, the bank charges a little more for a fixed rate. Since that risk doesn’t exist with a variable mortgage, the rate is lower.

Having said this, there are other factors to consider. Currently, the difference between fixed and Adjustable Mortgages is very small. At the same time, interest rates are at historic lows. Thanks to the entire government stimulus spending, inflation is expected to rise in the next year; therefore interest rates will rise too. So since a fixed rate doesn’t cost much extra right now and guarantees a historically low rate over the long term, many people believe it’s the right choice for the times.

However, the only way to know for sure is to have an analysis done of your financial situation. If you don’t have much equity, are worried about your job and can’t afford to have your mortgage payments rise, a fixed rate may be best. On the other hand, if you have lots of assets, stable income and can live with some rate fluctuation, you may do better with variable—especially since you can lock into a fixed mortgage as soon as rates start rising. As your local mortgage advisor, I’d be happy to perform a free mortgage analysis to help you with this important decision. Please call our Toll Free number today 866-930-6737
