Affiliate Marketing Secrets

Currently, I am a freshman at the University of Missouri majoring in Journalism. That’s what I want to do, journalism, no question about it. I am primarily interested in sports, and I am a really hard worker and will do whatever it takes to make it in the business.
I am considering transferring to the University of Texas at Austin because one, it is closer to home, and two, I am just not having fun at Mizzou. However, I have a very good GPA at Mizzou (3.94), I have made some friends (not many – but some), I have made great connections (I work with the student radio station and the local NBC-affiliate TV station called KOMU), and I am basically settled in. The only problem is, really, is that I miss home and I am not enjoying it as much as I thought I would.
I always wanted to go to Texas growing up, and I know it provides an excellent education in journalism. I also realize that Mizzou does as well.
In journalism, I know it is all about connections. UT seems to have a lot of connections there (the Dean of Communications told me about how they have ESPN, TV stations, Radio stations, etc.). Mizzou does too, though. However, I don’t know which will be better for my future. I also have to take into consideration that leaving Mizzou will be starting all over again and I would be taking a risk at making new connections in a new location when I already have some at Mizzou.
I really just need some advice on what direction to take. Should I go to Mizzou or should I go to Texas? If you can’t answer that, can you please give me advice on this whole situation? Thank you all!

I recently made a doctors appointment for my child to get a check up and a few tests done. They called me back and said that I owe money on a few past due bills from a hospital that they are affiliated with. As a result, they refused service for my child and said they can only see her if she is sick. While I would understand denial of service for myself (I currently have no insurance), I’m not sure if it is legal for them to refuse service for my child. My child has insurance and the past due bills from the hospital were for services granted to me, not my child. I understand that doctors need to make money, but they are not taking a risk in seeing my child because she has full coverage. Is there something fishy here, or is this common practice?

He invests in value, for the long haul, and he has “uncommon common sense”. He is also very disciplined. This is the most essential ingredient for success in matters of probability. Because the stock market is also about predicting outcomes, I think a person’s temperament in a skill oriented game that involves probability is an interesting indicator of how they are suited to investment. I don’t like to gamble. I think of gambling as taking a risk without any information that provides any advantage over any other player. It’s just luck and probability that decides winners and losers. Some people think the market is like gambling. If you believe that, you haven’t studied it enough. I’m a pretty fair poker player when I am in a game that matters to me. I can concentrate, maintain my discipline, and generally have more good days than bad. But as soon as I am in a situation where I am bored, or the stakes are not high enough to mean much to me, or are so high as to cause me to lose the right level of risk tolerance, I start to lose money. The same thing seems to apply to my stock investing. If I invest enough money to care a lot about the outcome, but to not lose sleep about it, then I have the right kind of mental attitude for the situation, and I am generally successful with my investments on average.
Buffet seems to have the ability to maintain focus and discipline in his strategies across a wider range of risk than many people. And now he is big enough to make a lot of plays that most people can’t touch.
But overall, its his strategy and his discipline. Read up on him, there are many lessons to learn from the “Oracle of Omaha”
