High Definition Update - Paul Wheeler InterviewIn July 2005, I wrote an E-Zine with the headline “High Definition – When?” At the time we saw little demand for HDCAM equipment aside from some clients in the U.S. Seven months later, the situation has changed dramatically. We added two Sony HDW-F900 HDCAM camcorders (Sony’s top of the line HDCAM camera for television and/or cinema) to our stock in January 2006 because of growing demand and see this as the beginning of a trend. And we have just taken a booking for a multi-camera shoot in March with six HDW-F900s.Interview With Paul Wheeler – S
According to marketing guru and millionaire extraordinaire Ted Nicholas, in his best selling book, Magic Words that Bring You Riches, “Every super successful marketer [professional] I know is constantly working to improve skills. Why? You must be a perpetual student to become a master in any field. Those who never achieve their potential in life simply do not exercise their innate capacity to learn and grow. Continuing education through books is perhaps the best way known to expand your knowledge… In my opinion, every successful marketer [professional] should spend at least $15,000 to $25,000 each year in continuing education. This includes books, tapes, seminars and travel costs. If you can’t afford anything like this level of expenditure right now, devote 5% - 10% of your income to increasing your knowledge. There is no better investment.”
Studies conducted by Johnson O’Connor Research Foundation, a nonprofit scientific research and educational organization, consistently show that there is a correlation between vocabulary and executive level and income. Another study by the Institute for Policy Studies and United for a Fair Economy indicates that, “chief executives earned 411 times the average worker's pay nationwide [USA] in 2005, down from the 431-to-1 ratio in 2004. Both ratios dwarf the 1980 ratio of 42-to-1.”

In order to live, we need money. In order to have money, we need jobs. Money makes the world go round. That’s true.
