First written in April of 1997, I thought it might be fun to follow-up each year and find out if anyone has been working on these ideas for future technology. I have included websites for you to “check out” inventions that are, are close to, or kinda close to what I am hoping will soon exist in the technology available to us presently.

1. Future Technology – Free Energy
I want my energy bill to come only once, not every month. So be it solar or electro-magnetic, please make it personal and portable with batteries that keep going and going.

2. Future Technology – Transporter
What kind of technology is required to scramble a person’s atoms and send them for regrouping in foreign lands all in the blink of an eye? Imagine, I could work in Tokyo and sleep in Paris. Beam me up.

3. Future Technology – Replicator Technology (Stuff for Free)
Every time I saw Captain Picard (Star Trek Next Generation) ordering his Earl Grey Tea or Councilor Troy getting a triple alien fudge dessert from one of those replicators on the Enterprise, it made me jealous. I imagine you could send the dirty dishes back to the void where they came from. BTW, a replicator is a device that uses transporter technology to dematerialize quantities of matter and then rematerialize that matter in another form.

4. Future Technology – Universal Communicator
Forget long distant bills and roaming charges (especially with me working in Tokyo and sleeping in Paris). I want a very small device that lets me talk and see anyone, anywhere and anytime. All for the price of the device and please throw in the ability for universal translation for a modest surcharge.

5. Future Technology – The Cure
For you name it.

6. Future Technology – Fountain of Youth
As a woman I consider this as a no-brainer desire for future technology. The “Fountain of Youth” was a legendary spring that renders anyone who drinks of its waters permanently young. What is the real future technology that will extend our lives and keep us looking youthful without surgery?

7. Future Technology – Protective Force Field
To shield me from the sticks and stones.

8. Future Technology – Flying Cars
I want a smooth ride all the way and I hope it’s a convertible.

9. Future Technology – The Battery Operated Butler Did It
What can I say – housework sucks.

10. Future Technology – The Time Machine
I have a few famous inventors I would love to meet in person and the idea of messing with the time-space continuum is exciting as well.

Everyone start to think of a business loan, once they have their business plan ready. Considering what is mentioned in, every should lender knows the risks that a new business implies. So, this risk will have to be shared, half risk in your shoulder and half risk to the bank. In the form, your provision of some asset whether private or dedicated to the business, to show confidence in your own business.

Retail or manufacturing or any other business sectors need funds at every stage of their business to create the market. Business cannot be carried forward without availability of sufficient funds. A business loan is the tailored solution for the ventures or businesses facing financial crisis.

Various financial companies and banks provide business loans. In the other hand, there is mutual benefit for lender and borrower. But they consider certain factors before lending the amount. These factors include the quality and value of the asset provided to be used as collateral. Another factor which is taken into consideration is the profitability of the business to be financed. Business loan is basically taken for the investment in the business. These investments can be in different forms according to the needs and requirements of the business and the borrower.

Very few loans will be granted on the business plan alone, however brilliant it may appear, so bear this in mind and place your house, a piece of land, car and whatever it may be, as collateral from the very beginning. Do not wait for the lender to ask for it.

Sometimes, bad credit loans and bad credit credit cards is happened in this reality life, and it will make consumers that having bad qualifying credit loan hard to built next requirement another credit loans. There is a lender still who willing those bad credit loans and bad credit credit cards a second change, including consumers having credit cards, home loans, auto loans and personal loans. Consumers can apply for offer to rebuild their plan of credit loans,that perhaps useful for their financial future.
