Furnishings includes the furniture, and while beautiful furniture goes a long way towards making a home what it is, it is nothing without the smaller items that complement it.Among these smaller decorative elements are vases, trays, candles, bookends and figurines that can be use to provide home accents that can both set and accentuate the theme of any room. To that list you can add oil paintings, prints, lamps and boxes that have a specific use and that appear entirely appropriate to the setting in which they are used.Here are some examples of home accents that can offer the decorative elements that make a home a home and not just a collection of furniture.Home Décor: VasesVases can have several functions in your home. The most obvious is to hold floral arrangements, whether these are real flowers or synthetics made from silk or polyester. Flowers offer a means of accentuating any style of décor, and are easily changed to suit the seasons or your color scheme. There is a wide range of synthetic floral arrangements to choose from, and an even larger selection of natural flowers and plants.Many use vases to offer not just visual beauty to a home, but also to provide an enhanced fragrance to a room. While genuine flowers can smell lovely, silk arrangements have no smell, and the entire fragrance of a room can be designed as you want it by the use of vases containing reed diffusers steeped in essential oils.Glass vases can also be used as decorative elements in a home by filling them with pebbles, colored glass marbles and glass fragments, seashells or varying colors of spices. The only limiting factor to your creative ability using vases is your imagination. Larger glass vases can even be used for small fish.Decorative TraysDecorative trays can be fashioned from metals, glass or ceramics in various shapes and colors, and are even made from highly colored plastics and many types of hardwood. Fragrant sandalwood is good choice for a decorative tray, as is a half pineapple or even a coconut shell.Trays can be used to hold the same items as for vases, such as colored glass or stones, and also nuts. However, your guests would prefer them to be filled with chocolates and other sweetmeats. Fruit is also an option, although a very unimaginative one – unless you choose exotic fruits – and keep them fresh!Ceramics: Plates and Other CeramicsAmong the more popular types of home accents are decorative plates and ceramics such as jars and jugs. Plates can be displayed on racks on tables and sideboards, or in display or curio cabinets. If you hang them on your walls, make sure you do not use metal racks that damage the plates.Decorative jugs and jars can be small and used as table and display ornaments, or can be large floor-standing jars (think Ali-Baba) that are suitable for large entrance halls, larger themed rooms and patios. These are also available in almost every material, natural and synthetic, although clay, porcelain and glass are the most popular – and the most decorative.Mirrors as Home Decorative ElementsMirrors can make all the difference between an ordinary room and one that receive admiration. Mirrors make small rooms look larger, and offer light to darker halls and rooms that would otherwise appear gloomy. Two or three strategically placed mirrors in a room can multiply reflect the light of only one lamp to provide a scintillating effect that deserves all the admiration it receives.Mirrors in bedrooms and bathrooms are not so much decorative as functional, so when selecting them, make sure you understand the difference between the two. You need at least one full length mirror in a dressing room or bedroom, and at least one face mirror in a bathroom: the latter being mainly used for shaving or applying night creams.Candlesticks as Home AccentsCandlesticks are a good choice if you are seeking unique home accents. There is a massive range of candlesticks and candelabra available, both online and from a wide variety of mall stores. Many people use candelabra on their dining table, particularly during dinner parties.Others use candlesticks around the home, and while you will find a huge selection of different types of decorative and scented candles available, many people prefer a simple straight cylindrical white candle to colored or twisted candles. Others don’t care, and use the type of candles they like best – twisted or not! In fact, such items are used more as decorative elements in the home rather that for their functional use.These are just a small selection of home accents and decorative elements commonly used in modern home décor. Ultimately, what you use will depend upon your own personal preference, taste and the general decorative style you employ. </p><div class="mads-block"></div>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://sixbums.info/home-decor-home-accents-and-decorative-elements,html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>3 Best Ways to Make Money Online From Home</title> <link>https://sixbums.info/3-best-ways-to-make-money-online-from-home,html</link> <comments>https://sixbums.info/3-best-ways-to-make-money-online-from-home,html#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 16 Mar 2023 08:30:42 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://sixbums.info/?p=63</guid> <description><![CDATA[Have you been thinking of the best ways to make money online and earn some extra cash for yourself during your free time and you don’t have a clear cut idea on how to start up?You can do so many things like Article writing, Freelancing, Blogging, Internet marketing, Affiliate marketing e.t.c.Making money online is not [...]]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Have you been thinking of the best ways to make money online and earn some extra cash for yourself during your free time and you don’t have a clear cut idea on how to start up?You can do so many things like Article writing, Freelancing, Blogging, Internet marketing, Affiliate marketing e.t.c.Making money online is not very difficult, in most cases you don’t need to own a website or online platform, or even sell products.

Clients are looking for that talking point of the night and are requesting for something “different”. Event Managers are being stretched when it comes to creating imaginative entertainment ideas to find something brand new for their client.Here are a list of some tips and ideas as to how you can bring something new to the table when it comes to live events entertainment and performances:1. Know your clients and guests requirements. What are they looking to gain or achieve from the event? The better understanding you have of the brief the easier for the performer to recommend and provide the right performance for the event.2. Use specialists within the entertainment industry like an entertainment company or a choreographer. If your event is heavily live event entertainment based you might want an entertainment specialist to help you pitch. They will know the act inside and out, so will be able to answer any questions from your client, which will help you win the pitch.3. Build a relationship with the entertainment company. The events industry constantly use the word “supplier”, which I think is very cold. I see it as a partnership. The entertainment company should be the first people you go to for entertainment advice when you receive an enquiry. Ask them to brainstorm with you or to help you with entertainment solutions and ideas. It saves you time and will provide you with a great outcome. Keep them on speed dial!4. If you can’t find the right events entertainment, produce it! There are so many creative’s within the events industry who will be able to produce a brand new act or performance. If your client wants something new or different, this is your answer. You will make your client very happy by saying you can 100% guarantee that none of your clients would have seen the entertainment you will be able to provide.5. Always speak to your production team and make sure they are in contact with the live events entertainment you are providing. So many times you turn up on the day of the event and the lighting is of poor quality or the PA system is at the other end of the room so you can’t hear the music during the performance. Communication is key between the entertainment company and the production company. A 10-minute phone call can dissolve many potential problems you would find on the day. Lighting, sound and production must compliment the entertainment to ensure a high quality performance and to get your moneys worth.6. Make sure you are thorough when reading the entertainment’s requirements. If you’re hiring a performer with detailed technical specifications such as aerial artists make sure the production team has it at the earliest convenience. You don’t want to book a fantastic aerial performer, but realise you can’t put rigging up due to health and safety.7. Don’t let the act perform for longer than is needed. I think the most important rule when providing entertainment is leave the guests wanting more. Make an impact! This sounds like a simple rule, but this happens more often then not. This goes back to knowing what the intention and brief of the event.8. Listen to the performer and entertainment company they will know what will work best for your event when it comes to performances and timings. They want to provide the very best entertainment and performance to ensure your event is perfect. Listen to their advice! </p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://sixbums.info/creativity-for-live-events-entertainment,html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Not Dismissing Investments If They Sound “Too Good to Be True” Can Be Life-Changing!</title> <link>https://sixbums.info/not-dismissing-investments-if-they-sound-too-good-to-be-true-can-be-life-changing,html</link> <comments>https://sixbums.info/not-dismissing-investments-if-they-sound-too-good-to-be-true-can-be-life-changing,html#comments</comments> <pubDate>Fri, 03 Feb 2023 16:30:31 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://sixbums.info/?p=58</guid> <description><![CDATA[Investors desperately looking for somewhere to put their funds to outstrip inflation, or looking to regain some lost ground following the turmoil in the markets in an effort to restore the prospect of a comfortable retirement, would bend over backwards to find a secure, high yielding investment.

With bank accounts yielding less than inflation and with traditional stocks and share Funds and Bonds, providing a fairly erratic recovery after many years of poor performance, it is not proving easy.Yet, if potential investors saw a product that pays a fixed rate of interest of between 12% & 15% pa they would treat it with scepticism and often, the phrase “Well, that is just too good to be true” is used and the investment would be dismissed as folly. Yet, the above investment returns are genuinely available from investment products that have a long track record of success and a mountain of due diligence material to support them.So why are these type of investments dismissed without much more than a casual glance?The main reason why such returns are dismissed as being “too good to be true” is because the comparisons are being made with traditional investment routes such as savings accounts or collective funds, gilts & corporate bonds, which in recent history have generally produced far lower returns. But this is an unfair and illogical comparison. The investments such as the one I mention above, have little or no link or relation to the markets that drive normal investments and savings, so why are they used as comparisons? It really is like comparing apples with pears.But there is understandable concern and mistrust out there as we fairly regularly hear of alternative investments that have gone wrong.Often the promised returns have been exaggerated and the fundamentals of the investment have just not been in place. One such “hot investment” has been the carbon credit investments where, in the final conclusion, the returns were based on the market price of a carbon credit, which was severely hit by the industrial slowdown.There was a couple of recent examples of a forestry/agricultural products that had gone wrong. One, mainly due to the wrong choice of crop – it just did not grow well enough in the chosen location, and the other, because of disputes over land ownership.Alternative investments are regularly discounted by advisers and institutions as they are not ‘Regulated Investments’.But why? It does not make sense, and this is why.Regulation will offer some protection in the case of miss-selling or fraud, or if a bank was to go bust, but it probably will not offer any protection in the case of poor performance. A ‘buy to let’ is an unregulated investment, so is art, antiques or wine investments. In these cases, we would not dismiss them because they are not Regulated, only because they would not be offering the right fundamentals based on your own thoughts, research or (even) our personal hunches or preferences. We can accept that sometimes we just have to make our own decisions based on our values and our own understanding of risk. We would like control over our own destiny and will accept responsibility. I am asking you to consider using the same thought process when considering other unregulated investments.One of the main reasons for an early dismissal, is the reluctance of financial advisers to grasp the concept of alternative investments. There is talk by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), that Independent Financial Advisers (IFA’s) will have to have a knowledge of alternative investments if they will be able to call themselves as true Independent Advisers. But I expect it will still remain very difficult for a potential investor to be able to find an IFA who could give a knowledgeable and objective view of a non regulated investment, particularly those investments that are “based” elsewhere in the EU or further afield. IFA’s will continue to be focussed on UK Regulated Investments in the advice they give.As a former regulated adviser for 12 years, I understand how they feel when they come across and alternative to what they normally deal with and advise on. Mistrust and poor performance within the financial world over the past few years have made them even more nervous about exploring new opportunities, and with possible sanctions hanging over them for giving bad advice, it is understandable that they stick with the known, tried and trusted, even where it may not be the best on offer. They are well-meaning, but in my view, somewhat nervous about sticking their head above the parapet or may be banned from actually doing so by their employer. The result is that they may end up not giving the best (fully informed) advice.So faced with these concerns, how would an individual potential investor decide whether the published returns are balanced by acceptable risk?Well, the best way of assessing the viability of these returns is by looking at the individual investment circumstances and business plans of the investment product providers. Has the chosen crop a successful history in the area? Have steps been taken to counter disease, flood, drought, etc? Are the land assets used already owned and unencumbered by debt? How is demand likely to be affected by world and local events? Is the local government behind or opposed to foreign investment? How are the local rules and laws catered for in the business plan?Examination of these factors may reveal sound business plans with and a track record of success. Furthermore, they may also provide protection by means of ownership and/or first charge over a solid property asset. Any well-run alternative investment product will have a plethora of due diligence material to back it up and this should be a good starting point for your research.The product providers should be able to demonstrate that they have a successful business model, with minimal intrusion or lending by the banks and the ability to pay better returns to their investor than is available from traditional routes. If they are a top credit-rated business with a long successful track record as well, then this is a very welcome bonus. If all is positive, then surely these are the ideal attributes to look for as an investment and we should be embracing them, rather than dismissing them because the returns are so good.So, do not be hastened into writing off these businesses. Keep an open mind. In a world where a High Street coffee shop can easily charge £2.75 for a cup of coffee against material cost of a few pence, where a top lawyer can charge £5,000 an hour and where an internet search engine can develop into a business worth around £200,000,000,000 in only a few years, why should we sneer at, or be skeptical of, successful businesses that have found a lucrative niche?We should be careful about lumping all ‘non-regulated’ investments into the same pile as they can be built on entirely different principles and be completely unrelated. The term “alternative investments” includes such collective investments such as hedge funds, derivatives, commodity funds. For the experienced investor these may well be appealing and may well be lucrative, but they will often depend on a “manager” of sorts, who will be making decisions of the “buy/sell” variety on a daily basis and his success will have a direct bearing on your investment and the returns may fluctuate in a similar way to a stocks and shares fund within the traditional market. In other words, the investor loses control to those daily decisions and market movements.Of course, there are many successful collective investments and hedge funds, but it would be my assertion that only experienced investors should place their faith in them, as it is very difficult to ascertain which of them will do well. For example, Hedge Fund Managers are understandably extremely secretive of their fund management philosophy, so how can a “layman” investor do his/her research and due diligence.Compare this with the simple asset backed alternative investments that I mentioned earlier whereby the investments are based on a business model or asset that have the fundamentals already in place and thereafter the Management seek only to ensure that they continually make that business model work to the benefit of everyone concerned. Remember, I am not suggesting that potential investors put all their eggs, or even nearly all their eggs, in the same basket. But who is to say, that as part of your diversified portfolio, you shouldn’t consider something that depends on business fundamentals and dedicated management instead of the usual financial markets – for just a proportion of your funds.It just does not make sense to dismiss such opportunities.Take control of your own financial destiny. Keep an open mind, research and investigate – and you could find that life changing investment. </p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://sixbums.info/not-dismissing-investments-if-they-sound-too-good-to-be-true-can-be-life-changing,html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Get US Passport Fast – Don’t Let a Stolen, Lost, Or Missing Passport Delay Your Travel Plans!</title> <link>https://sixbums.info/get-us-passport-fast-dont-let-a-stolen-lost-or-missing-passport-delay-your-travel-plans,html</link> <comments>https://sixbums.info/get-us-passport-fast-dont-let-a-stolen-lost-or-missing-passport-delay-your-travel-plans,html#comments</comments> <pubDate>Fri, 03 Feb 2023 13:04:22 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://sixbums.info/?p=56</guid> <description><![CDATA[What could be worse?

It also means maintaining mental balance and caring for physical fitness. For those of us recovering from injury or sickness, this can be done with the help of the services offered by the medical and nursing professionals. To avoid the need to rely on the administering of health care maintaining our health through fitness should be an important aspect in everyone’s life.Unfortunately, far too many people ignore the risks and let their body and mind deteriorate through lethargy and lack of physical activity and exercise. Thus, the majority of the population will have to rely on the services of the commercial medical industry at some point in their lives. Sadly, for to many people, health care is unavailable too them, either due to cost, lack of insurance or lack of access, when they need it most. In developed and developing countries health services are rendered to each and every one irrespective of their capacity to pay. Also some of the government organizations provide the facility of medical care with a nominal fee.Professionals of the medical industry include people who provide services which are related to the preservation or improvement of the health of individuals. Their services also include the treatment of wounded, ill, disabled or feeble individuals. Health care forms a big part of a country’s economy.If you want to save money and have independence in your deciding in when and where to get medical care try home health programs when they are available. This type program helps an individual to be free from the confines of a hospital or any other medical centers. This program can be utilized by those people who need not be confined in a hospital.Home health care programs offer an array of services. These services are done in the console of the patients own home. Home health plans are normally monitored by a doctor. But nurses and auxiliaries carry out the legal period of care in such plans.Health is wealth is a good saying in the present world. So the big question is how we are to provide health care services to every one. We should think of a way to provide medical benefits to one and all. This is the problem which is facing far too many countries in the world.Providing health coverage is a problem of major concern for all countries. If we try to cut one segment of the health care industry in an attempt to save money then every artery of the industry will start to bleed. The most pragmatic way to determine a solution to this trouble is to inquire of the medical professionals themselves who work with the system. They will be able to tell us what, where and how something is wrong.Distributed Health Care Centers, doubtless have become popular because they extend low cost care that is not uncommitted elsewhere. A health center is fundamentally, any agency where health care is distributed, including education on health.Long Term Health Care:An individual who is not fit to take care of himself/herself and also not able to perform his daily duties like eating, having his bath or even dressing on his own may have to rely on long term care. Even certain diseases also make long term care necessary. Long term care need not be received in the hospital it can be received at home also. In general long term care is required by individuals who are 85 years or more. Long term health care is a bit costly and can be undertaken only by those who can afford it.Steps can be taken to make health coverage affordable to one and all.<br />- The information with regard to health care cost and the medical procedures should be made easily available to consumers so that they are educated on that topic. This will help them to make better health care choices.<br />- Results and the outcomes of alternative medical plans have to be made available to the consumers. This will help them to take more informative decisions.<br />- Consumers themselves have to be more responsible towards maintaining their health and knowing when to seek treatment.<br />- Dizzy lawsuits and the threat of suits make the doctors to practice defensive medicine<br />- Consumers should allow their physicians to guide them on the most suitable treatment for their sickness or otherwise. </p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://sixbums.info/the-fitness-of-health-care,html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>10 Tips For Choosing the Perfect In-Home Health Care Agency</title> <link>https://sixbums.info/10-tips-for-choosing-the-perfect-in-home-health-care-agency,html</link> <comments>https://sixbums.info/10-tips-for-choosing-the-perfect-in-home-health-care-agency,html#comments</comments> <pubDate>Wed, 25 Jan 2023 07:36:38 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://sixbums.info/?p=52</guid> <description><![CDATA[When caring for your aging parent or loved one becomes overwhelming and you need a break, or when extra help is needed with bathing, feeding, dressing, household duties or if caring for them yourself is just not possible anymore, selecting an in-home health care provider is a good alternative.Proper screening is essential to ensure that [...]]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> When caring for your aging parent or loved one becomes overwhelming and you need a break, or when extra help is needed with bathing, feeding, dressing, household duties or if caring for them yourself is just not possible anymore, selecting an in-home health care provider is a good alternative.Proper screening is essential to ensure that the person you choose has, not only the skills to provide excellent care, but also the right personality for the job. Consider these tips and hints and you will find that hiring an in-home heath care provider does not have to be stressful.1. Evaluate Your Loved One’s Needs<br />While some older adults just need assistance with basic living skills, others have additional health care needs that require a special skill set. Therefore, it is necessary to make a list of all of the duties that an in-home health care professional will need to provide so you can narrow down the list of candidates early on. If you are hiring through an agency, give them as much information from the start so they can match you up with someone who possesses all of knowledge and capabilities to give the best care possible to your loved one.<br />If your home health care worker will be assisting with bathing or dressing, it is important to discuss this with your loved one to make sure that they are comfortable with the gender of the companion. Women or men may become embarrassed when opposite gendered health care workers assist them with personal care and this may cause bath time to become stressful.2. Speak With Local Experts<br />Before you go to the yellow pages or check out the classifieds for home heath aids, speak with neighbors, doctors, and elder care providers locally who can give you some recommendations and advice. Find out where other families have found in-home help and have them tell you about their experience. An administrator at a local nursing home may also have some suggestions for you on where to locate the best care giver. Support groups are a wealth of information, as well.3. Create a Job Description<br />When you are ready to begin speaking with applicants and conducting interviews, start by writing a job description. The job duties can serve as talking points for your interview and also give the applicants a clear picture of what will be required of them.4. Prepare Interview Questions<br />If you are not experienced at conducting formal interviews, you will benefit greatly by having a prepared list of questions. It will help you stay in control of the interview, not miss any key points, and make the best use of your time. Write it all down.5. Outline an Employment Contract<br />Even if the person you select comes highly recommended and you and your family really hit it off with them, make sure to remain professional. This includes having them sign a contract that outlines your expectations, their duties, as well as boundaries. You can then refer back to the contract should a situation arise in the future. Often Home Health Agencies prepare the contracts themselves. Be sure to read them carefully and add anything that you wish to be included.6. Personally Screen Candidates<br />Since the person you hire will be spending time alone with your parent or loved one, it is essential that you approve them yourself. Having an agency just send someone over is not acceptable in this situation. Even if they can paint a picture of a candidate’s qualifications, because the job of health care provider is so intimate, personality is equally as important. If your loved one is able to participate in the interview, that is ideal. Regardless, they should spend some time together to make sure that they click.7. Conduct a Background Check<br />Do not trust your intuition. When you think that you have found the person you want to hire, do conduct a background check to make sure that the person you hire does not have a questionable past.8. Check References<br />Even if this is their first job in the field of health care, every applicant should be able to provide references. Ideally, these should come from past employers. Otherwise, professors, internship supervisors, and personal references can also be used.9. Protect Your Home and Family<br />Since the health care provider you hire will most likely have free access to your home, possessions, and family members, find out if they are bonded. It they are not bonded themselves, find out if the agency that you hired them from is. Remember not to leave credit cards, checkbooks and personal papers in unsecured areas.10. Stay Involved<br />Your job is not over once the contract is signed and employment has begun. The more of a presence you have in your loved one’s life the better. Even if you can not be there in person, scheduling telephone meetings can let the health care provider know that you are involved and on top of things. Ask for progress reports and find out if there are any difficulties. Since the health care provider is around your loved one the most, they can give you the best information about their physical health as well as their state of mind.One way to stay involved is to use a caregiver’s organizer (which we just happen to offer on our website). The Caregiver’s Companion is an organizational tool that has sections for personal information, family history, medications and side effects, medical appointments, and home health care workers notes. I hate selling, but this IS a very good tool in my opinion. </p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://sixbums.info/10-tips-for-choosing-the-perfect-in-home-health-care-agency,html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Chinese Medicine Degree Programs</title> <link>https://sixbums.info/chinese-medicine-degree-programs,html</link> <comments>https://sixbums.info/chinese-medicine-degree-programs,html#comments</comments> <pubDate>Wed, 25 Jan 2023 07:35:11 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://sixbums.info/?p=50</guid> <description><![CDATA[Find Chinese medicine degree programs in the United States and Canada.

They both are currencies in one form or the other and are open for public use across the world. But they are both different and distinct in their own ways. There is always one group that favors the use of cryptos, while the other has a soft corner for the fiat currencies.</p><p>In cashless society- crypto money play a huge role</p><p>If you have a look at the market of the 1970s and 1980s, you will find that the cash played the dominant role. But, with the change in the technology, electronic transactions have become the usual norm. Today, more and more people are influenced in becoming the cashless society. With the progress towards the cashless society, cryptocurrencies have a big role to play.</p><p>Crypto currency and fiat currency are always at loggerheads</p><p>Cryptocurrency and fiat currency are popular types of digital currency, especially when it is about an online transaction. They both are currencies currently in use in the market but have some differences in them. There is a hell lot of hypes that you will hear on a daily basis comparing the crypto money and the fiat money. This article will highlight the difference between the two in a more comprehensive and clear manner.</p><p>Differentiating in what the currencies stand for</p><p>Before going for the difference between the two, you must understand what do they stand for and how are they are defined.</p><p>The fiat currency is a legal tender that has the support of the central government, and it operates in the physical form. For instance, US dollars, British Pounds, Euro etc. On the other hand, the crypto currency is a non-legal tender, and doesn’t have any backup from the central government or bank.<br />Hence, the difference between crypto currency and fiat currency is noted as follows:</p><p>• Crypto-currencies are decentralized and global in nature. There are no one entity or government that controls the currency with their laws and regulations. The Fiat currency is centralized, under the control of the laws and regulations of the banks and government.</p><p>• Crypto-currencies have their existence only in the digital domain. On the other hand, you will find that the fiat currencies have a tangible and physical existence.</p><p>• There is a limited supply of crypto-currencies with a maximum set of them getting supplied in the market. Whereas, the fiat money has an unlimited supply as the government and bank are entitled to produce coins and paper money whenever the situation is required.</p><p>• The Bitcoin and other crypto type currencies are created by the computers, while the fiat currencies are issued by the local government and the banks.</p><p>• Cryptocurrencies are presented as the public and private code pieces. On the other hand, the fiat currencies are presented in the form of coins and paper money.</p><p>• The value of the crypto currencies is not recognized by the supply and demand of the market. Whereas, the fiat currency value is determined by the market regulations of supply and demand.</p><p>The different types of crypto and fiat currencies</p><p>In the last one decade, the popularity of crypto type currencies has emerged as a huge success. It was in 2009, when Bitcoin was first introduced, and years after several other types of crypto currencies have emerged. Starting from Litecoin. Dogecoin, Ripple to the Dcash and Zcash, there is a plethora of them. On the other hand, the fiat currency has a rich and ancient roots, with the Great British Pound, that dates back to 775 AD. It is considered as the oldest currency in the world that is still in use.</p><p>The differences in the anonymity between the two currencies</p><p>When you are using the fiat currencies, you need to undergo a user identification or verification process. You are asked to upload a recent picture of yourself and some of the required documents to be issued as per the public authorities. You don’t need to undergo any of the required processes with the crypto currencies. Though your personal information and confidential details don’t get public, but all your transactions are recorded and tracked in both the fiat and the crypto currencies.</p><p>Fiat currency vs crypto currency: transparency level</p><p>• The transparency level with the crypto type currencies are considered to be more. This is because the revenue streams are displayed in a public chain. Everyone can witness their own and others’ transactions.</p><p>• The fiat or govt. currencies are not transparent, as there are not public chains to see the revenue streams of the people.</p><p>A comparative historical roots</p><p>If you compare the crypto money with that of its counterpart, fiat or government currency, you will find that their existence and creation brings the difference. The Fiat or government currency, dates back its existence as early as 775 AD with the introduction of the Great British Pound. This is why fiat type currency is easily accepted by the people all over.</p><p>On the other hand, the crypto coin was perhaps first introduced only a decade ago, with the introduction of Bitcoin in 2009. The challenge that the Bitcoin and other crypto currencies face is catching up with the immense popularity and increasing fan base of the fiat currency. Crypto currency, is no doubt gaining importance and popularity in the economic market, but it has still not been accepted widely in the society as the fiat currency.</p><p>A comparative history of the two currencies:</p><p>• It was in the 11th century, when the Chinese Song dynasty was perhaps the first one to issue the paper money. It was not allowed to exchange with valuables like gold and silver or silk.</p><p>• There were Tally sticks that were introduced as a fiat or government currency. 1100 Tally sticks were introduced as a combat for the shortages in gold.</p><p>• 1971, was the year, when the fiat currency received a worldwide recognition. President Nixon introduced it in order to eliminate the dollar pegging system to gold.</p><p>• It was in 1998, when the idea of an anonymous electronic cash system emerged by Wei Dai. Bitgold-the very first crypto currency was created by Nick Szabo, but it didn’t receive as much attention as Bitcoin.</p><p>• In 2009, Bitcoin was introduced in the market, that became the first crypto currency that was accepted across the globe. In 2011 and after, a series of several other crypto currencies were introduced. Some of the popular ones include, Litecoin, Dogecoin, Ethereum, Ripple, Zcash, Dash and so on.</p><p>The traits of both the currencies</p><p>The potential of the crypto type currencies and fiat currencies, accessing their traits is important. You will find that in some of the criteria, Bitcoin and other crypto currency is superior than the fiat or government currency, and in some cases, the latter surpasses. It is absolutely your call to choose the type of currency (crypto type currency or fiat type currency) based on your personal needs and requirements.</p><p>Let us compare their traits with respect to certain factors.</p><p>• Both the crypto coins and fiat type currencies are interchangeable in nature.</p><p>• As per the portability is concerned both the currencies secure more or less the same position.</p><p>• With respect to the non consumable criteria, crypto currency and fiat type currency have the equal status.</p><p>• Crypto type currencies have high durability as compared to the fiat-currencies that have moderate level of durability.</p><p>• Both the crypto or virtual currencies and the fiat or government currencies ensure secure and safeguarded transactions and exchange.</p><p>• Crypto or digital currencies are highly divisible in nature. On the other hand, the fiat type currencies are moderately divisible.</p><p>• In terms of the transaction process, the crypto currencies are easy and hassle free. Whereas, on the other hand, the traction process associated with the fiat currencies are easy, but not like the cryptos.</p><p>• The crypto based currencies are decentralized and global in nature, unlike the fiat currencies that are centralized and functions under the laws and regulations of the government.</p><p>• The crypto based currencies have high scarcity, where as, the fiat currencies are unlimited as the government can issue coins and paper money whenever there is a need.</p><p>• The crypto based currencies are based on mathematical algorithms, and are programmable. The fiat currencies are not at all programmable.</p><p>• The fiat currencies are sovereign in nature, while the crypto currencies are not.</p><p>The process of the functioning of the currencies</p><p>You can find the significant differences between the crypto or digital currencies and the fiat currencies with the way they both operate and the transaction process that take place. They are contrasting in nature. The transfer of money using the Bitcoin is very quick, and you absolutely don’t need any third party association.</p><p>On the other hand, if you are involved with the money exchange using Fiat type currency, a mobile wallet is in use. You can exchange an amount of e-money that gets transferred into the equal e-value amount. Both the fiat and the crypto currencies enable you to purchase everything that you desire. But the processes involved are absolutely distinct from each other.</p><p>Depending on the things you purchase, you will find that one currency form is better than the other. This is absolutely your choice.</p><p>Is Bitcoin, a crypto currency better than the fiat-currency?</p><p>The long term benefits and the capability of the Bitcoins is still not established. But it has been predicted by the crypto currency gurus and experts, that they will go a long way, especially revolutionizing the way the online transactions are done. In the current market, the Bitcoin is mainly included in the online casinos and the gambling, but it is not limited to it.</p><p>Furthermore, when you compare the fiat currencies, the Bitcoin allows you to seize the power and authority from the banks and the government since it is not controlled. The cryptography based currency has the capability to create or come up with the free market capitals. Fiat currencies are affected by the inflation and the changes in the market, unlike the crypto based currencies. Such aspects make individuals believe that cryptograph based currencies will soon take over the mainstream currencies and bring a transformation in the way the money is used.</p><p>Why is Bitcoins considered to be a better aspect than the fiat type currencies?</p><p>• Bitcoin gives you the opportunity to re-create a free market capitalism.</p><p>• The power of controlling the money is absolutely with the individuals, and not with the banks like the fiat type currencies.</p><p>• When there is an inflation, the Bitcoin is not affected. But the Fiat type currency will be easier to lose and get affected by it.</p><p>• The Bitcoin currency is easy easier to exchange and transfer as compared to the fiat or government currencies.</p><p>• The transaction fees involved with the Bitcoin are way cheaper and easily affordable.</p><p>Crypto currencies seem to be a favorable option among the people</p><p>The fiat type currencies are the centralized and legal way of exchanging money. But, the crypto currencies have acquired immense popularity in the past few years. There will never be anyone who would act as a middle man, like the case with the banks. Moreover, the cryptos are way cheaper and less expensive that the conventional fiat currencies.</p><p>Send money anywhere directly without waiting for the bank’s approval</p><p>You can send money to anyone in the world directly, and it is super fast. The money gets cleared within a few minutes time. You don’t have to wait for the traditional clearing and verification processes of the banking systems, which might take up to several days to get a clearance. Since it is decentralized and doesn’t come under the law and regulations of the government, nobody has any power to do anything with your account.</p><p>The blockchain technology has a very big role to play</p><p>Thanks to the crypto currencies, that gives us the power and the authority to become our very own bank, and take control over our finances. It is because of the blockchain technology that offers a higher level of sophistication while dealing with the finances. In fact, there are some mainstream financial industries that have started incorporating the idea of the technology.</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://sixbums.info/crypto-currency-vs-fiat-currency,html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Are You Choosing the Right Stock Market Advisory Company</title> <link>https://sixbums.info/are-you-choosing-the-right-stock-market-advisory-company,html</link> <comments>https://sixbums.info/are-you-choosing-the-right-stock-market-advisory-company,html#comments</comments> <pubDate>Mon, 12 Sep 2022 10:35:11 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <category><![CDATA[financial]]></category> <category><![CDATA[help you]]></category> <category><![CDATA[planners]]></category> <category><![CDATA[point]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://sixbums.info/?p=46</guid> <description><![CDATA[What do you do if you want to learn driving a car?
