  Have you noticed that fix - and flip television shows seem to be on every television in America lately? They’re on at banks, hotel lobbies, airports, and even buses. And why have they risen so dramatically in popularity over the last few years? Television has made real estate investing seem like the easiest way to make money. If you can swing a hammer, you can flip a house. Right?  Well, it probably goes without saying that it’s a lot more complicated than that. Truth is, most real estate investors fail the first time out. Think about it. If every fix-and-flip project went smoothly, it wouldn’t make for very interesting television. These investments fail for various reasons, of course, but a substantial portion of them fail when things inevitably go haywire, and the investor is not able to financially recover from the loss.  This is the book that every real estate investor wishes they had read before they bought that insurance policy that didn’t cover their property adequately. It is the book that could have saved hundreds, thousands, and even millions of dollars for property owners when they were sued for something they didn’t realize they could be sued for. It is also the book that those television shows don’t tell you about because insurance isn’t sexy enough for TV.  But “Innovative Insurance” is full of tips, hints, and practical advice that can save you stress and allow you to sleep well at night. Whether you own a hundred rental properties and just need to tweak your policy to make it suit your portfolio best, or you recently inherited your grandparents 1940’s cottage, you will find information that can help you navigate the ever-shifting sands of insurance.  Topics include: Why we have insurance and what it’s supposed to do Types of insurance forms Difference between soft and hard markets Common types of investors and investing goals Appetite for risk Lender requirements and hints for success Factors that affect insurance ratesCommon terms such as ACV, RC, coinsurance, umbrellasFactors that affect your property deductible choiceExclusions and gapsLiability Special circumstances that affect insurabilityThe goal of this book is to arm readers with the knowledge they need to ask the right questions, make the right decisions, and cover their assets in the best possible way for their unique situation and goals. Sure, maybe insurance isn’t sexy, but being made whole after a catastrophe or avoiding a million-dollar lawsuit certainly has its appeal. Wouldn’t you agree?

  The Price of Inequality - How...

  Joseph E. Stiglitz

  The top 1 percent of Americans control 40 percent of the nation's wealth. And, as Joseph E. Stiglitz explains, while those at the top enjoy the best health care, education, and benefits of wealth, they fail to realize that "their fate is bound up with how the other 99 percent live."Stiglitz draws on his deep understanding of economics to show that growing inequality is not inevitable: moneyed interests compound their wealth by stifling true, dynamic capitalism. They have made America the most unequal advanced industrial country while crippling growth, trampling on the rule of law, and undermining democracy. The result: a divided society that cannot tackle its most pressing problems. With characteristic insight, Stiglitz examines our current state, then teases out its implications for democracy, for monetary and budgetary policy, and for globalization. He closes with a plan for a more just and prosperous future.

  GDP - The World's Most Powerful...

  Gross Domestic Product is failing. For decades it has rewarded environmental destruction and obscured inequality. Its formula can be?and has been?gamed to the detriment of developing countries.In this powerfully argued book, now updated with a new chapter, science writer Ehsan Masood shows how GDP fell from the path envisaged by its architects, and how its long-term misapplication has kept large parts of the world in poverty, while helping accelerate global warming and biodiversity loss.As the world rebuilds after the coronavirus pandemic and the accompanying global recession, our need for a more sustainable and inclusive measure of economic growth has never been greater. Change must come if we are to break the cycle. With clarity and passion, Masood shows how we can update GDP for a better future.[previously published as The Great Invention in North America]'Masood contends that GDP is a bill of goods the developed world foisted on emerging nations. It is flawed, he argues, because the monetary value of all goods and services produced in a country makes no reference to social well-being or inequality. Masood is also troubled by GDP's failure to consider the environmental damage that is, at times, a byproduct of growth. Many of Masood's criticisms have merit. He presents some interesting alternatives. He favors revolutionary change.'  -- Roger Lowenstein, Wall Street Journal, USA“If you ever thought that economic policy could never make for gripping drama, try reading this book.” -- Khurram Husain, Dawn“Ehsan Masood unveils the genesis of GDP and how it shaped the modern economic paradigm. It comes at a time when a growing number of people are questioning this flawed metric.” -- Down to Earth“Fascinating. Whether happiness should be embedded into decisions on the economy is an important one, and whether GDP should be abandoned in favor of something better is too. Masood's book helps raise those questions and others in a thought provoking manner. That's much needed in every endeavor these days, and needed in few places more than in the economics profession.” -- Simon Constable, Forbes, USA“An interesting book. Masood doesn't merely criticize the overreliance on GDP: he also explores ongoing efforts to develop a satisfactory substitute or supplement that would yield a more accurate picture of economic activity and its effects.” -- Foreign Affairs, USA“In lively prose, Masood argues that GDP is flawed because it ignores volunteering, housework, environmental degradation, job satisfaction, and income inequality.” -- Kirkus Reviews“Masood covers decades of challenges to GDP conventions that make for a fascinating institutional and human story.” -- Diane Coyle, Nature“In lively prose, Masood argues that GDP is flawed because it ignores volunteering, housework, environmental degradation, job satisfaction, and income inequality.” -- Publishers Weekly“Masood's highly readable book is a useful reminder of what GDP is and what it isn't.” -- N. Gregory Mankiw, Science
