Woodworking Kaleidoscope

In this day and age it is more common to hear of a Foreclosure happening to a family you know, rather than a divorce or death.

We are living in an economic kaleidoscope where every turn you make you see the same picture, just at a different angle.

Gas prices are sky high, real estate is priced to sell, and people who have owned their homes for most of their lifetime are choosing to walk away from them because they are no longer able to repay the debt.

In a recent survey, we found that the top five most common reasons for foreclosure are Divorce, Unemployment, Medical Problems, Death, or Balloon Payments. The end result is all the same, no matter the cause; a homeowner is now left to find a rental property to reside in, and another empty home is on the market listed as “bank owned”.

With the flood of these bank owned properties on every multiple listing site nationwide, Investors are coming out of the woodwork to snatch these properties up for thousands below actual market value.

We find that in today’s market, the average Joe is making the decision to invest in Real Estate rather than stocks, because the return on their investment is secured by real property, they are able to buy nice homes for pennies on the dollar, and the opportunity to re-sell that investment for large profits is practically guaranteed, when buying below market value!

It is important that the entire process is understood before you make the decision to bid on a foreclosure listing. There are things to consider such as value, ability to re-sell, auction hype, financing requirements, etc. A lot of this knowledge will come from many years of investing lessons learned the hard way, but what if you could go into a Foreclosure Auction with the knowledge of a seasoned investor, simply from what you learned from experiences of others?

It’s perhaps impossible to imagine an Indian wedding without extensive jewelry, as jewelry is what makes the occasion, and the bride, extra spectacular. Bridal jewelry in India is vast and includes a kaleidoscope of colors and patterns.

Typically, the bride wears ear rings, finger rings, necklaces, bracelets, bangles, maang tikka, anklets, and much more. Traditional and Contemporary A trend decorating a bride with chic and designer wedding jewelry in different styles and colors that started almost 5000 years ago continues in every Indian wedding today. Pendants, necklaces, earrings, tiaras, bracelets etc form the essentials.

Bridal jewelry is the biggest source of an industry that is the largest of anywhere in the world, and consumes the most gold sold. (Tip: shop for gold in the summer months, when the world gold prices are the lowest due to a slow period in Indian weddings.) Especially, since the wedding day is the most important, and the one and only such day, in a bride’s life, wedding jewelry is very significant. To make the occasion perfect, wedding ladies love to beautify themselves from head to toe with jewelry that, in fact, complements her attire and personality along with graceful looking whereas the people think of jewelry as a means of celebrating the body.

Elegant styles The bridal jewelry displayed in India include, for instance, maang tikka or tiara (used to adorn the centre forehead parting of the bride), earrings, nose rings or nath, necklaces, armbands, bangles (chudi and kara), waistbands, rings, ring bracelets, toe rings, and various local and regional jewelry types. Some of the more common regional fair includes anklets, jhoomars, haath phool, mangal sutra, matha patti etc.

In addition, jewelries worn by the Indian bride also includes a host of different varieties. For instance, bracelets can be diamond bracelets, gold bracelets, steel bracelets, bracelets studded with gems, silver bracelets, pearl bracelets, lack bracelets, and now common platinum bracelets. Earrings include diamond earrings, crystal (most commonly Swarovski) earrings, gold and platinum earrings, pearl and precious stone earrings etc; necklaces and pendants include gold, silver and platinum necklaces, crystal pendants, diamond and precious stone pendants, and pearl pendants. Mangal sutras are also worn by some brides, in addition to necklaces.

A growing trend in metropolitan regions these days is to rent jewelry instead of buying it. First, this lets the bride wear a lot more jewelry on the wedding day since renting is cheaper than buying. This also is easier since instead of spending a few days trying and buying jewelry sets, brides can just walk into one store and choose all they need from a wedding register. This is more so given the busy lifestyles and careers of most young people.
