Taming the Sharks by Christopher L. Peterson Pdf

Taming the Sharks: Towards a Cure for the High Cost Credit Market chronicles the historic, economic. legal, and political factors breeding America's feverish high cost debt industry. The ideas presented are novel, progressive, and controversial. Historians have long argued that interest rates provide a sort of economic and political health of nations. If true, the contemporary American market for credit shows troubling signs of distress. While Federal Reserve Board monetary policy has kept commercial and prime consumer interest rates low, the past two decades have seen explosive growth in an industry specializing in high-cost consumer debt. Payday loan outlet chains, automobile title loan companies, rent-to-own furniture stores, pawnshops, and sub-prime and manufactured home mortgage lenders are transforming the personal finance patterns of millions of Americans. Many observers have complained this industry charges excessive prices, uses unfair business practices, and is generally causing more harm for its borrowers than good. Industry insiders retort they are merely responding to a legitimate demand for financial services that, in effect, consumers vote with their feet. Echoing problems of past centuries, today's consumers face difficulty comparing credit prices, patterns of reckless lending and borrowing, as well as distressing economic externalities. With an idea on the future, Peterson's book hopes to find ingredients of a compromise to protect working-poor borrowers while simultaneously preserving economic competition.

Amphibious Soul by Craig Foster Pdf

“An important book that will transform how we think about being human. … that will inspire hope.”—Jane Goodall How can we reclaim the soul-deepening wildness that grounds us and energizes us when so much of the modern world seems designed to tame us? In this thrilling memoir of a life spent exploring the most incredible places on Earth—from the Great African Seaforest to the crocodile lairs of the Okavango Delta—Craig Foster reveals how we can attend to the earthly beauty around us and deepen our love for all living things, whether we make our homes in the country, the city, or anywhere in between. Foster explores his struggles to remain present to life when a disconnection from nature and the demands of his professional life begin to deaden his senses. And his own reliance on nature’s rejuvenating spiritual power is put to the test when catastrophe strikes close to home. Foster’s lyrical, riveting Amphibious Soul draws on his decades of daily ocean dives, wisdom from Indigenous teachers, and leading-edge science.

Summary of Tom Holland's Rubicon by Everest Media, Pdf

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The Romans were able to buy the Sibyl’s books, which contained prophecies of great importance to the Romans. The Romans soon realized that only one woman could have written them – the Sibyl. #2 The Roman Republic was very sensitive about the information in the books left behind by the exiled Tarquin. Only in the most dire situations was it allowed to consult the books, and then only by special magistrates. #3 The Romans had a deep-seated aversion to change. They saw it as a threat to their way of life, and they never ceased to invest in their city by holding true to the customs of their ancestors. #4 The Romans were a very competitive people, but they were also taught to temper their instincts for the common good in their relations with others. They were, however, extremely ruthless in their relations with their enemies.

How the Other Half Banks by Mehrsa Baradaran Pdf

The United States has two separate banking systems--one serving the well-to-do and another exploiting everyone else. Deserted by banks and lacking credit, many people are forced to wander through a Wild West of payday lenders and check-cashing services thanks to the effects of deregulation in the 1970s that continue today, Mehrsa Baradaran shows.
