Today, Tamir Rice would've turned 18, protestors continue to rally around the black lives matter movement; calling for arrests and legislation to end police killings. Around the world more countries like New Zealand, London, Paris, Belgium and Australia are joining standing with protestors; supporting public movements for pro equity legislation and initiatives aimed to stop to the police from killing unarmed Black American citizens. We remember those whose lives, we're catalyst for revolutionary acts of Love.

Tamir Rice was killed, in Cleveland, OH by a 26 year old white male police officer. Rice was carrying a toy gun, the officer shot him almost immediately after arriving on the scene.

Let your revolutionary acts be felt through self awareness and growth. Dedicate time to learning something new or applying something new that you're learning everyday. Do this to make yourself better and in rememberance of Tamir Rice. Think of your 18 year old self-- are you the person you set out to be? What are you doing to leave your mark on the world? Ask yourself these questions often, and be honest with yourself.

Are you filling a void? Or are you fulfilling a legacy?

Hindi nga madadala sa langit ang pera. Pero sa FUTURE pa ito. Ang mahalaga ay ang NGAYON. Itanong mo sa sarili mo kung okay na ba para sayo ang buhay mo ngayon? Ang buhay ng nakasandal sayo? Ang buhay ng pamilya mo na kailangan ka pa para mabuhay sila. Kailangan mo mapagtanto na para mabuhay tayo at maayos ang pamumuhay natin dito sa mundo ay kailangan natin ng pera. Kaya bigyan mo ng halaga ito para natutulungan mo ang pamilya mo hindi lang ang sarili mo. Turn your salary (active income) into a business (passive income). Passive income na may magmamanage para sa iyo. How?

Everything Changed In 2020. Will Fintech Ever Be The Same?

New Post has been published on https://perfectirishgifts.com/everything-changed-in-2020-will-fintech-ever-be-the-same/

Everything Changed In 2020. Will Fintech Ever Be The Same?

2020 is the year consumers, merchants, financial institutions and businesses alike learned to quickly adapt to new behaviors, procedures and mandates in response to COVID-19. Coping with the virus forced accelerated adoption of new technologies and protocols, especially when it comes to fintech.

It wasn’t until we were faced with the risk of going to the grocery store that we realized how easy it is to have groceries delivered to our doorstep, or until we were afraid to exchange cash that we adopted contactless payments. And while many of us will happily go back to picking our own produce or taking out a crisp twenty-dollar bill, some will never return to their old ways.  

With all that has changed in the fintech world over the past nine months, here are some insights into what trends will stay with us and what won’t in a future, post-pandemic world.

What’s here to stay:

1. Contactless payments. We’ll continue to see massive adoption of cashless, contactless locations and online shopping will continue its explosive growth. We’ve all seen growth of contactless at bigger merchants, but now we are seeing it offered at local flower shops, hardware stores and restaurants. In a recent study of small and medium-sized businesses conducted by FIS FIS , about half of the merchants surveyed offered a new payment method in the past year while focusing on flexibility and new delivery options in response to COVID-19. The same study also found that 60 percent of merchants expect to increase their investment in digital technology in the next year.

2.      Fintech engagement with banks, merchants and emerging services. Since consumers are already in a change mindset, the time is ripe for entrepreneurs to invest in a new product or a small business idea. To succeed, entrepreneurs will need to think about the world as it is today with an eye on the world as it will be. There continues to be rich opportunities for delivery services for restaurants, or remote, digital engagement for retail businesses like hair salons. The application of new fintech solutions will be the common thread that provides opportunity to what’s next for banks, merchants and emerging services.

3.      Your online footprint is growing. During the pandemic, consumers have shifted their buying behavior to online channels in droves, but this swing also puts the consumer at greater risk of fraud. As you proliferate your data online, there are more accounts to manage with a greater potential of data theft. While this isn’t something to fret about, it’s worth understanding that you’ll need to be more diligent in monitoring your financial activity. Now that consumers have signed up for a variety of ecommerce sites, it is expected that most consumers will stay on them even once we’re past the pandemic. While we expect some behaviors to return post-COVID, what we’re seeing now was part of a larger trend and digital banking and shopping will only continue to grow in the years to come.

What’s new is old again:

1.      Leeway on loan repayments. Consumers should no longer count on their bank saying it’s okay not to pay their bills for the next six months. Being able to put everything on hold for their account holders this year had just as much to do with bank self-preservation as taking care of those affected most by the pandemic. December is when many bank leeway programs are ending as most offered a six-month deferment and it’s hard to see those programs extending without any kind of federal or legislative action. The leeway programs will be more individualized going forward rather than one size fits all.

2.      Bank branch appointments and in-person interaction will return. Today you have to call your bank and set up an appointment before you go in. Post-pandemic it will be easier to gain access to the bank once public health is restored and this could help a wider swath of the population get access to bank services. Surely, bank customers and employees will continue to practice social distancing, hand sanitizing, mask use and we will see an increased use of Plexiglas barriers to protect everyone from airborne spread of the virus before this whole thing is over.

3.      The small business market will go back to taking cash. While this may seem at odds with the fact that we have embraced contactless payments, paper money and coins will not go away anytime soon. Cash may not be king but it’s certainly still a prince and an essential financial tool for the millions of unbanked or underbanked people in the U.S. without access to a bank or credit card or simply choose not to use them. Small businesses and merchants do better by their customers by allowing them to pay in their preferred ways—be it contactless payments with a device like a smartphone, dipping a card, or exchanging paper and coin. While cash use will likely not go back to pre-pandemic levels, we’re still decades away from seeing an all-digital payments world in the U.S., and no one running a business is going to turn away cold hard cash anytime soon.

When the “new normal” becomes just “normal”

Although much of the not-so-distant future looks a bit like our recent past, COVID-19 had dramatically altered the way consumers and businesses handle business transactions, even the things that “go back to normal” are still going to look and feel different.

Even once we can safely leave the masks behind and physical contact isn’t met with copious amounts of hand sanitizer afterward, the engines of our financial technology future will continue chugging forward. We’ve seen how digital payments and commerce has helped keep business afloat amidst this trying year, and that technology is only going to get smarter, faster and more intuitive. In a year that uprooted so much of our lives, fintech was there to help us make it through, and I think it will only keep growing from here.

NBC News: Kamala Harris named by Joe Biden as his VP pick

#Trending NBC News Reports:

(D) California Kamala Harris named by Joe Biden as his VP pick.

#trending Kamala Harris selected by Joe Biden as the Democratic Vice Presidential candidate. Recently Sen. Kamala Harris has been in the news for pushing police reform, helping to pen legislation against the use of choke-holds and no-knock warrants. Sen. Harris is the FIRST woman in history, since Shirley Chisholm to join a major party's national ticket.

Biden's chief political goal is uniting progressive and established wings of the democratic party. Making Harris an ideal running mate. One her signature accomplishments as attorney general is creating Open Justice, an online platform making criminal justice data available to the public. This database helps improve police accountability by collecting information on the number of deaths and injuries of those taken into police custody.

However there's controversy surrounding the political candidate, going back to 2012 when -- the California Dept of Justice recommended that [then] attorney general, file a civil enforcement action against OneWest Bank for "widespread misconduct" when foreclosing homes.

Harris declined to prosecute the bank or it's [then] CEO Steven Mnuchin, who now serves as Treasury secretary.

The most sited viral moment of Sen. Harris' presidential campaign is noted in her first debate against Joe Biden over his position on cross-district school system bussing standards.

In November, if elected she'll be the First woman of Asian and Black American descent to serve as Vice President, marking a milestone in the history of the United States.

#forentrepreneurs Building a personal brand on social? While there's so many moving parts, the one consistent is-- You are the featured attraction, the primary focus main character.. #readmore #Repost @hustlemind • • • • • How To Start A Personal Brand On Instagram In 2020 🔥 . Growing a page and monetizing it is pretty simple, and not that difficult. You just need to have the right strategies and monetization plan ✅ . But when it comes to building a PERSONAL BRAND on Instagram, many people get it all wrong🙅🏻‍♀️ . The first step you need to take, before even starting your account, is defining your purpose. What is the purpose of this account? What value do you want to bring with this account? Think about it 💭 . The second step/thing that you need to think about, is that you have to be yourself, don’t go all fake and copy others, and just pretend. No, it just won’t work 🤷🏻‍♀️ . The third step is choosing the name for your personal brand account. It might sound easy, but not really. You need to think about the name for awhile. Because this is what people first see, and this is how people will know you. If you have a difficult name, change it on your social media platforms. Make it easy to remember 👌🏻 . Now, defining who your brand is for, defining who your target audience is, is super important. When you know your target audience, it will be easier for you to really engage with them, and find your target prospects as well 🎯 . Defining what’s your brand’s message is also one of the most important things when it comes to building a personal brand. Whats does your brand stand for? What are your core values? Think about it and stick to it ✔️ . Knowing and sharing your “Why” is basically the same as defining your purpose. It’s critical! Think about it before you start your personal brand account ✅ .
