Benefits of Collecting Gold Coins

I’m fond of collecting old coins and this hobby of mine started when I  was still a kid. My Mom started the collection for me by giving me her old coins from several years back and I was amazed to see the early dates of the coins. Since then I added all coins that the government deemed not for use in buying. And now I have plenty of coins in various denominations, forms and dates. Several years ago we were surprised by our officemate who asked us if we have an old coin dated in the 70’s and I was excited to find one in my collection. She said that someone will buy it for a 5-digit price amount but when my coin was ready for the selling they told me that they don’t need the coin anymore. I was not sad on that moment because it’s also hard for me to part with any of my most precious coin collection and was only tempted because the amount was over the selling price of old coins. Well my coins are really meant for collection and not for selling, for now I think. 

This incident has awakened my mind that coin collection is not only a hobby but an investment also because I know that after several years my coins would price a higher value. It can be my fall back when things get rough so I’m keeping it then. But for those who want to reap the rewards of high value appreciation for their collections they can sell gold coins to Refinity.com and in doing so you’re helping the planet because the company is an eco-friendly site that buy old coins and refine it for other usage purposes. By recycling and refining gold we can reduce the risk of environmental hazard while earning the most cash out of your collections. They pay the higher rate for your coins, jewelleries and others.

Their travel is convenient and he enjoys riding on a boat going to the specific town in the province where they have their church. They built that church there and they visit it every now and then to check and to have fellowship with their brethren there.

What's Your Brain Like?

Your Brain is Logical

You are a very facts and figures oriented person. You don't get clouded by emotion.
You like to understand how things work, and you're always collecting data of some sort.

You are a critical thinker. You are look at all the facts before you make a decision.
You aren't likely to change your mind once it's made up, but new facts could sway you - emotional appeals could not.

I'm a very logical person but sometimes I'm also emotional.  It's just that I really think things out before plunging into minor or major decisions in my life.  I always want to plan for things in my life. That's the part of my life that I don't want to rush, who knows? my plans could affect some future changes in my life.  It could be about myself, my husband, my kids or my maiden family.  People should be like that, we should sit.plan, think and decide. On some occasions we can let things as they are.  No need to plan.

:Mellow Yellow Mon/Ruby Tuesday: Hibiscus Painting

Click the image to enlarge pic

This is the Philippine's most common flower Hibiscus in which the painter drew his imaginative ideas from.  It's a simple painting but it caught my attention as the colors are so vivid especially the background splash of Yellow and the Red Hibiscus making it appropriate for my MYM and RT entries.  Simplicity is beauty and so is this painting especially when you see it personally.  Btw this painting shot was taken in the resort we rented last Aug. 12 when we took a day off our work and activities to celebrate pastor's birthday.  There are 3 paintings in that resort and I'll showcase the other two in my future entries.  Got stock of them huh!

Happy Monday everyone! For other entries just click the top logo!

Protect Your iPhone

Modern gadgets are really nice to look at while you’re surfing. Previously I was always looking for different models of Laptops and Notebooks but when I finally purchase a new one last summer I stopped from searching online because I got my dream HP laptop. Now my mobile phone retired already and I thought of buying a functional one that I can use for my emails when I’m away from home. Of course I want an iPhone for myself but I’ll have to save before I can have one. Well I will not fall on my budget priorities also.

Anyway buying one will also mean getting an iphone 4 insurance because it would have to be protected from accidental damage and theft. It would be a sad moment if the one you’ve saved for months will only be damaged or stolen from you. I’m not sure if all iPhone owners know about getting insurance for their gadget because for me it’s very risky to own it without insurance coverage

Electric Motors

I’m not very familiar with industrial products and learned some of them only when my previous company ventured on distributorship on power saving device that caters mainly to Electric motors and some other industrial equipment. The company is a pioneering one and it aims to help industries to save consumption of electricity by installing power saving device to industrial equipment that consumes high electricity. I’m not part of the company but I always hear it discussed on my meetings with the boss and the managers. Now I found Freemont Fremont Industrial Supply, Inc. a leading provider of hydraulic rams, Compressed air dryer, electric motors and pneumatic valves. 

They’ve been with the business for some years and in all those years they deliver their services with quality, affordability and good service coupled with assisting customers with the system design and component selection of power transmission and fluid power products. Now that I’ve found this I might be able to help my cousin to do his purchasing report for his client who needed this equipment immediately. I have to learn these products to help him and I guess visiting the site helped me deal with my assignment. I’ve found what he’s looking for and come up with specifications of Worldwide Electric 1 1/2 HP three phase 56 NEMA frame electric motor and looked for the Hydraulic rams combo set which has the capacity of BVA Hydraulics 10,000 psi working pressure. That’s all I can get for him and the rest is up to him. It’s good visiting sites like this as you’ll have full info and specifications of your desired industrial equipment.

Love for Music Runs in the Blood

My kids are getting fond of sports and music. As they grow older I can see their preferences on the type of sports and music they want. Anyway it runs in the family as my grandfather plays harp when he was still alive and my Mom’s brother was a member of the town’s music band in the old days. They say love and talent for music can be inherited and I know this is true because my brother learned to play different musical instruments through self-study only. Now all his kids except for the little one graduated from piano lessons and can play the instrument very well. The best is his eldest who heads the young musicians in the church and knows all musical instruments used there.

Of course my Mom was happy about it and she’s asking me to enroll my kids in piano lessons next summer vacation. Well I should save for it as it’s kinda expensive too. My girls Ruth and Gen expressed their desires to study Electric Keyboards which I’m happy about because they can play in our own church if they’ll be good in it. I promised that we’ll allocate budget for their schooling and will save for the purchase of a good quality keyboards or piano. Our little boy won’t be left behind when he hears us planning things for her elder sisters because he already has chosen a drum set  for himself as if I can buy that immediately upon his request. Well he really loves what he saw on the site and bookmarked it.

It’s easy to search for musical instruments because they have it in Shopwiki which makes it easy to shop online with 30,000 stores available for shoppers to choose from. Shopping can be tiring sometimes but if it’s online shopping at Shopwiki you’ll enjoy every minute of it as you’ll get to see your favorite items, preferred brand and almost everything you need for your family and your house.
