An inevitable idea: a working man (Michael Keaton) who can’t meet all his professional and family responsibilities has himself cloned. It works so well having one copy of himself to take charge of matters at the office that he makes another copy who takes care of the home front. Pretty soon, different aspects of Keaton’s personality are emphasized in the different clones: the laborer becomes a mac…

India Today Book Club Screening the Power of Printed Word

Books for professionals hold arguments for or against the actions within. A book on cooking argues that Chili powder goes well with potatoes and goes poorly with ice-cream. A book on building a business argues that testing an idea for profitability before setting up is a smart strategy and argues against just barreling forward with the idea without testing. You too will be able to reason better with the knowledge you gain. Some of the arguments will rub off on you. Others you will argue against. Regardless, you’ll be reasoning better. Books improve our reasoning skills, build our expertise, decreases mistakes and discover surprises.

Books decrease our boredom. One of the rules I have is if I am feeling bored, I will pick up a book and start reading. What I’ve found by sticking to this is that I become interested in the book’s subject and stop being bored.

Books are for New Mental Associations. As you read more books the depth and breadth of your knowledge expands and your ability to form new associations’ increases. In reading a book to discover the solution to one problem, you find the solution to others you may not have considered.

Books are portable as well as cost saving too. You can take them almost anywhere. As such, you can learn almost anywhere too. Apart from spending money on entertainment expenses, Reading books that help you develop your skills saves money. Reading books on how someone went bankrupt will be a warning to you against repeating their mistakes. Reading a book on how to build your own backyard deck saves the expense of hiring a contractor. Book Clubs makes reading more cost saving such as India Today Book Club through which I can avail lots of gifts on purchase of books and also with impressive discounts.

I can say that Books can change our Life. You are thinking that- How many times have you heard of a book changing someone’s life? For me, it was Your Erroneous Zones (link) by Wayne Dyer – which is the first self-development book I read. It opened my eyes to a whole new way of thinking that was not depressing and dull. It was the first step in my path of choosing my own life and being free of old habitual thought patterns.

Books let us into their souls and lay open to us the secrets of our own.

I just got a job as a contractor accountant. What should I charge?

More specifically data entry. I’m being hired as a contractor to do data entry using Quick books or Peach Tree.

My boss basically told me she’ll contract me to do the data entry and asked me to think of an hourly rate and tell her by Monday.

What’s a good hourly rate for me to charge? I’ve never done accounting before (but I’ve taken Introductory financial and managerial accounting).

Ooh – not much experience, eh?

I’d go with $12 per hour to start with. (I personally used to charge $40 per hour, but had a tad more experience). She’s probably not planning on paying someone for 40 hours a week, every week. By the way, and as I hope you already know, bookkeeping/accounting is not just simply ‘data entry’.
