kiva

Do you know "kiva"?

It's a microfinance non-profit organization that mission is to connect people through lending for the sake of alleviating poverty.

I thought that this site has some good schemes.
I could select some partner who the site writes down their activity, country and more information. If I donate to them I usually don't know what to use. But this program is different.

And I felt that the long tail effect for internet technology has huge power.

Wordbook

I make a wordbook for learning English.

Because I need to refer to my dictionary a lot when I write posts on my blog. But I don't have a chance using word of refer to my dictionary everyday. So I almost forget what word mean. I referred the same word many number of times.

I made my wordbook on Google documents. If I made it online, I can check it anywhere.

The work contents of this family-owned company was a carpentry that they constructed and repaired Shinto shrines and temples.

The company collapsed under huge money in debt in 2006. But now other company helped and they start a new company.

Margin Trading

I'm learning about the point of view of stock chart. I want to try it. And now, I think that Japan's market is a bear market. And I'm ready to margin trade at the securities company.

I think that I use 3 signals of stock chart.
  • The 1st is MACD (moving average convergence and divergence).
  • The 2nd is Bollinger band.
  • The 3rd is moving average line.
But I basically think buy-and-hold strategy such as famous investor Warren Buffett.
