			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You may have heard about online surveys where you can get paid for filling in a survey online. You may also have heard that a lot of them appear to be scams whereby they invite you to sign up and charge you for being on their list of potential survey panelists.</p>
<p>As a general point I would always say be very cautious about paying anybody to be given work. There may be justifiable reasons for it but you can be sure that if they are scammers they will want to make some money from you and then very likely not supply you with what you expected, or they may just supply you with information that is freely available online,  or will simply fail to give you  the opportunity to earn anything back at all. So, you may gather I am extremly wary of recommending online surveys as a way to make money though there are some genuine opportunities where you can earn a little cash.</p>
<p>There is one survey company that I can recommend from personal experience.  This is an established company that does NOT ask you for any money. You don&#8217;t get paid very much, about 50p per survey, but the surveys usually only take a few minutes and you may feel you are getting a chance to have your say when you hear the survey mentioned on programmes like Newsnight or you see the results in your newspaper.  The surveys can be about political matters or about shopping and brand awareness and if you think you would be interested to know more click on the following link and have a look for yourself&#8230;.&gt; <a title="online survey" href="http://my.yougov.com/go.aspx?id=81ee2129-0167-471c-9d3c-389accb6c70e">Online Surveys</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We hear a lot about education, how it is so vital that our children are prepared for the future and the country is supplied with qualified people to take us through this new and exciting century. No doubt this sort of thing was being said 20 or 30 years ago but it is questionable whether the results matched up to the hopes for education.</p>
<p>Nobody can be blamed for not forseeing the changes in the use of computers and the finance industry. We had no preparation for the huge development of the finance industry and the enormous impact it has had on our lives. The problem with revolutions is that their consequences cannot be forseen and there will no doubt be huge changes in our lives in the future.</p>
<p>Being trained for life as it is today is not going to be a great deal of help for the children starting school today. When they leave school in 12 to 15 years life will be very different, the world will have changed significantly and the skills they need will no doubt be different to what matters now. Knowledge of the environment was considered as an interesting bonus to education in the past, yet now, the importance is hard to comprehend. The changes in the environment and awareness of the problems and changes they will bring are unimaginable at this point in time. The only thing we can be certain of is that there will be big changes in our energy use, the weather and how our societies respond to these changes.</p>
<p>What is certain is our children will need to be adaptable and able to deal with the changes.  Being creative and adaptable may be more important than how good their skills are in some of the more traditional acedemic subjects. We don&#8217;t just need workers, we need visionaries, developers, inventors and free thinkers. We need creative children to be encouraged and <a title="help children reach their potential" href="http://www.excelr8learning.co.uk" target="_blank">help children reach their potential</a> in whatever they are good at and enjoy doing.</p>
<p>I just watched a fascinating video about this very subject and if you care about your children&#8217;s future you might enjoy it too.  Our children are our future and they are the ones that will decide the financial scenarios for us in our old age. We must hope that they, and us, are as well prepared as possible.</p>
<p>Watch the video and see if you don&#8217;t agree with the views put forward by Sir Ken Robinson.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>An interesting if not quite productive day. I sat down with the best of intentions to get a bit of work done but ever since have been distracted and whizzing all over the internet but I am pleased I did. I just happened across a very interesting blog by a Dane who lives in the uk and is a speaker, educator and Author in &#8216;Happiness At Work&#8217; but prefers to go by the title Chief Happiness Officer. His book Happy Hour From 9-5 is available via his website and no doubt an interesting read and apparently can be read online for free. I&#8217;ll take a look presently.</p>
<p>So what has this got to do with money? A happy worker is a more enthusiastic, more productive and, almost certainly , a more successful worker. There is a lot more to life than simply money and you probably spend a large part of your life at work so why not enjoy it? However, as a happy worker you will very likely achieve more success in your work and money as a result and very likely enjoy a far happier private life too as matter of course. It&#8217;s a win, win situation and who can resist one of those?</p>
<p>One thing that can create resentment and spoil the working environment is job titles. Alex argues that they are a waste of time and he makes a good case for it. Does a job title ever change anything? It may look good on a CV but hopefully there will be more important things than job titles on your CV for you to be judged by. It&#8217;s an over rated concept developed by people who want to sound important even if they are not. Read more about one example of a reader of Alex&#8217;s blog who took action to do away with pompous job titles here&#8230;Â  <a title="Death To Job Titles" href="http://positivesharing.com/2008/03/more-death-to-job-titles/" target="_blank">Chief Happiness Officer</a> and have a happy and productive day.</p>
