Do you know what happens when the inflation rate is more than the interest you earn on your savings? YOU LOSE MONEY.Currently, the top rate you can earn from a nationally available savings account in the U.S. is 0.50%. On the one hand, this means that saving $10,000 will leave you with $10,511 after ten years-a mere 5% increase. On the other hand, with the inflation rate at 6.2%, this means that you are losing 5.7% of your money every year in real terms.Inflation hurts savers because it erodes the purchasing power of the money they save. So, if your goal is to increase your wealth, you need to pay attention to investments that can help you beat inflation. And such investments are plentiful in the stock market.

This book is based on a true story. In August 2008, two men from Nantucket went fishing for the day on the twenty-six-foot boat the Queen Bee. As they made their way back to shore, a wave tossed both men into the water. They were rescued by the Coast Guard, but the boat was believed to be lost at sea. In January 2012, the boat was discovered floating off the coast of Spain.

Whеаt, rуе, bаrlеу, аnd sреlt соntаin a fаmilу оf рrоtеn саllеd glutеn. Protein, texture, and flavor may all be improved by using gluten, which exists naturally but can also be isolated, concentrated, and added to food and other tеms. A binding agent aids in giving processed food its intended shape and texture. Wheat is not the only source of glutеn; rye, bаrlеу, and trtсаlе also contain it. Oats can contain gluten if they have been cross-contaminated during the manufacturing process with gluten-containing products. Gluten is derived from wheat. Knowing about all of these things is critical for your health.

Pain, hope, and love collide in this explosive collection of speculative fiction. Arkdust demands revolutions while seeking compassion and understanding. Alex Smith gives us abandoned Black Panthers, disillusioned queer anarchists, warrior queen grocery clerks, all fighting for a better future against sadistic superheroes and white supremacist automatons—while a high-heeled bag lady with utopia in her eyes leads the way. Worlds we hope to never see and only dare to imagine, Arkdust challenges and implores the reader to explore the unimaginable to make all worlds possible. As Samuel R. Delany says, “You should be in that armchair, this word-wonder in your hand, reading...”

Axel Drake was not a people person. He didn't hate people, but he wasn't particularly fond of them. He decided he needed a change, so when his uncle suggested he move into an old manor in New Orleans, he decided to take the opportunity. Unbeknownst to Axel, however, the manor has a few secrets away. Luckily for him, so does he. Now he finds himself brought into a world he never knew existed, and the possibilities are endless. Axel always was a man to take an opportunity given to him...

What would a life without sadness, anger, defeat, love, and vulnerability truly represent? It represents a life lived in fear. Every human is hesitant of showing their true, raw, authentic selves; fearing they will never be accepted. No matter what difficulties a person has faced, what age, what stage in life; every person will relate to the emotions felt in this piece. This book will make you question whether or not your life is meaningful, what positives/negatives you put back into the world, what life events/people have sculpted you, if you give into your demons or flood them out with light. Alex has courageously displayed all of his darkest thoughts for the public to see in such an artistic fashion.

Just as Neil Gaiman¿s The Graveyard Book reworked Kipling¿s The Jungle Book for a modern audience with a liking for the supernatural, Devilskein & Dearlove is a darker, more edgy, contemporary reworking of Frances Hodgson Burnett¿s classic The Secret Garden. An orphaned teenager is taken in by a reluctant distant relative, and in her new home makes an unexpected friend and finds a secret realm. It has shades of the quirky fantastical in the style of Miyazaki¿s (Studio Ghibli) animated films like Spirited Away and Howl¿s Moving Castle (originally a novel by Diana Wynne Jones).Alex says ¿As a child The Secret Garden was one of my first favourite novels - one of the first I relished reading by myself. Although Devilskein & Dearlove is very different, it was inspired by that novel and its themes.¿¿Alex Smith¿s quirky imagination knows no bounds.¿ - André Brink
