Insurace That You Should Avoid

Now insurance policy has become an integral part of our lives. But some kind of insurance policies are there that we should avoid and they are:

* You should not spend money on paying insurance premium on small purchases like- toaster, washing machine because these small items can be purchased ot at very high price. So purchasing insurance for the small items are not required at all.

* I have seen several people opting for "Flight Insurance". According to my opinion, this is not necessary at all. If you already have a life insurance policy, then you will definitely get the coverage while traveling through flight.

* "Credit card insurance" is another unnecessary burden for a credit card holder. The credit card providing companies gain a good amount of profit in this way. Several people go for this insurance as he is told that if he is unable to pay credit card bill in future, then the insurance policy will be very much helpful.

I will discuss about some more avoidable insurance polcies in the coming week.

A Real Life Instance Of "Identity Theft"

Today I am going to share the incident of "identity theft" that happened to Tiger woods with my readers.

But before watchin the video, let's discuss about the "identity theft". It is a crime of stealing one's personal and identifying information like- credit card or bank account numbers, debit card pin number, usrname or passwords of internet banking, social security number with a view of fraudulent activities. So now let's see how Tyger Woods became the victim of "identity theft" recently:

A Different Scenario

In the whole world, Sub-Saharan Africa is undoubtedly the most aid-dependent and indebted area. The overall international debt stock was approximately 52.5% of the GDP (gross domestic product) in 2004. During the period between 1970 and 2002, African nations collectively obtained approximately $540 million in debt. This was disclosed by a report published by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development. It is worth mentioning that debt settlement and debt relief are options that are utilized in Africa for paying off both individual and business debts.

African nations paid off approximately $550 billion in principal and interest, though the unpaid debt stock at the close of 2002 was $295 billion. At the end of 2005, it was more than $300 billion. Economic experts hinted that these debts surged due to a number of reasons. Some relate the dilemma to loans that were extended by creditors without much thought on how the nations can pay them off. At the same time, others attribute it to wealthy nations that offered loans under stipulations that worked for their own interest. In addition, loans were frequently offered to incompetent governments or military governments that were no more present. Escalating interest rates and inconsistent fiscal policies had contributed to multiply these debts many times.

The condition in the Sub Saharan Africa created a problem for the whole world. From one point of view, it was apparent that these nations were not in a situation to pay off their debts without famishing whole generations. The occurrence of AIDs had raised the healthcare expenses in the region to an appalling level. Thousands of children passed away because of undernourishment and associated illnesses every year. Most of the nations in the region were disbursing more on debt servicing every year than education and health care added together. In this kind of a situation, 100% debt cancellation for these nations appeared to be the only viable option. In contrast, a number of least developed nations in Africa had wasted and misappropriated the loans offered to them in fruitless expenses rather than putting them in developmental programs. They had chosen for additional loans to pay back the previous ones, generating a spiral. This put up questions about the responsibility of both creditors and debtors.

Several economists thought that the underlying social system of these nations boosted economic disparity and the gains of loan cancellation would not reach the lowest layers of society.
