President of Optimum Capital Management, Ryan Mack: Mr. Mack has a life mission to build and develop a durable financial empire geared towards educating his community and beyond. Ryan Mack graduated from the University of Michigan Business School (ranked number one in the country) with a concentration in Finance. His career in equity markets began in Detroit, Michigan as a stock trader and later as a trader for the largest NASDAQ trading firm in the nation, Knight Securities. Having a passion for teaching he established his own financial awareness group in 2003 where he began to publish regular newsletters about various financial related issues that were of interest to people from all income levels. In addition to being a financial advisor working with many prominent clients across the U.S., he charitably lends his support to inner-city communities by coordinating workshops and creating economic empowerment initiatives that teach the principles of understanding the power of financial literacy. Unions, churches, government-subsidized housing communities, municipal programs, nonprofits, inner-city organizations, international communities and especially colleges and universities have benefited from the financial workshops/programs that he has developed and instructed through Optimum Capital Management.

As a renowned public speaker he has provided keynote presentations to organizations across the country such as NAACP, National Association of Real Estate Brokers, Housing Preservation and Development, National Urban League, National Aeronautics and Space Administration, National Black MBA Association and many others. With a strong sense of philanthropy he flew to South Africa to teach economic empowerment principles to those in need and has partnered with the local District Attorney's office to teach financial literacy to previously incarcerated community residents with the aim of lowering recidivism rates. He can be regularly viewed on television networks such as GMTV, CNBC, CNN and BET discussing economic/social issues that impact American citizens. Ryan has also been profiled in Tavis Smiley's Covenant and Action (a New York Times Bestseller); co-authored a book with Kevin Powell entitled "The Black Male Handbook"; featured in Black Enterprise, African American Family, The Source & NV Magazine; contributes regularly to Huffingtonpost.com, The Network Journal, Fortune, and Black Enterprise; received the Top 40 Ander 40 Achievement Award from The Network Journal; was inducted by Medgar Evers College (where he currently serves as a board member) into its national honor society PI ETA KAPPA as a honorary member; and received Tom Joyner's "Hardest Working Financial Advisor Award" because of his efforts to empower the community with the crucial life skills of financial literacy. Whether he is counseling a group of doctors at a convention or in Rikers Island providing a free course Ryan Mack's comprehensive, exciting approach to teaching economic empowerment to all income levels has generated a level of much needed interest in a volatile economy.

Why is Education Important?

Posted

by Clair SchwanOIEE WriterLooking back, itrsquo;s easy to identify why education was important for me, and itrsquo;s easy to explain why itrsquo;s important for you. The important question to answer is can you see why itrsquo;s important for you? Sometimes thatrsquo;s difficult, especially when yoursquo;re facing it or going through it. Years of education can seem like a lifetime of effort. Often school can be tedious, and there are many more entertaining things to do than sit in a classroom.... (continue reading)

****************************************** Jsst A little History Lesson:::: ******************************************

In the United States The term "financial services
" Financial Services became more prent in the United States partly as a result of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of the late 1990s, which enabled different types of companies operating in the U.S. financial services industry at that time to merge.
[2] Companies usually have two distinct approaches to this type of business.
One approach would be a bank which simply buys an insurance company or an investment bank, keeps the original brands of the acquired firm, and adds the acquisition to its holding company simply to diversify its earnings.
Outside the U.S. (e.g., in Japan ), non-financial services companies are permitted within the holding company.
In this scenario, each company still looks independent, and has its own customers, etc. In the other style, a bank would simply create its own brokerage division or insurance division and attempt to sell those products to its own existing customers, with incentives for combining all things with one company Recon Financial Networks International

Financial services refer to services provided by the finance industry. The finance industry encompasses a broad range of organizations that deal with the management of money.
Among these organizations are credit unions, banks, credit card companies, insurance companies, consumer finance companies, stock brokerages, investment funds and some government sponsored enterprises.
As of 2010, the financial services industry represented 20% of the market capitalization of the S&P 500 in the United States.

Suggested Reading: "Wall Street Journal article, "Economic Jitters Pressure Dollar"
Wednesday, August 4, 2010
I said to do it last week. I said it first. Short sell the dollar. Who's copying who?
Also, watch austerity measures, cutting of after school programs, police, water, hit minoritities first.
I said it. Now watch it.
What they tell you:
"The dollar continued to spiral lower after weak US economic data fanned speculation that the Federal Reserve could take additional measures to boost an economy investors worry is slowing"
"UBS AG boosted its one month euro forecast 6% this week, a big revision from te world's second biggest currencies dealing bank and a further sign that the common currency's recent rally is taking seasoned market watchers by surprise."
What they don't tell you:
The crash of the Euro is making Germany look good, as far as there exports are concerned. Especially to China. For those who don't like Germany's Merkel, umm, wish you had her unemployment, don't you?
That the dollar was weakening. Should you start crashing the dollar? Short sell it? Watch what I say, and to my critics, I win. I'm just starting.
Oh yeah baby, that brings up the question, are we the next Greece? Like the Farm Report is going to save us. Well, maybe, if Europestill is going through droughts and firestorms.
Peep Game:
Should there be a way to protect the US currency from being a victim of short selling?
The markets are controlled, so, are we crashing the dollar to get more exports out?
And if we crash the dollar, will another crash come? If another crash comes, President Obama, check mate. Stimulus package aka bail out, aka tranche, aka, haha. What did you say last week?
Good as Gold
It was in the WSJ that China is buying ore, washing it with cyanide, both hazardous to the environment and humans, but the Chinese government doesn't care, they only have a billion people. Oh, like the Chinese government cares about the environment? Check out the oil spill last week in China? Not to mention all the safety violations and factories blowing up. Was John McCains visit to Vietnam equivalent to Richard Nixon's visit to China?
Two quotes:
"China doesn't officially disclose imports of gold bullion"
"China is the biggest gold producer"
What?
Since China is becoming rather too uncontrollable of a power, a little late now in thinking, but should we invest in other Asian countries as well? Oh, what about Mexico?
Surf Carolina
Like to surf? Good ole Collins out ther in the Atlantic might bring North Carolina the waves you are chasing on the East Coast. I put on for my city, put it on the map. Come on down and check out our Surf shops, skate shops, and glass shops.
