The Future Is Now by Christina Nikolov Founder ChartWatchCentral, Inc.

One ofrepparttar 112166 missions of ChartWatchCentral is to inform our readers of opportunity before it mainstreams. There is tremendous opportunity inrepparttar 112167 futuristic field of Nanotechnology.

Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary defines nanotechnology thusly: “the art of manipulating materials on an atomic or molecular scale especially to build microscopic devices.” A more proper working definition is:repparttar 112168 creation of an entirely new species and world.

Nanotechnology is also very fertile ground forrepparttar 112169 investor who does his homework. As always,repparttar 112170 ground floor isrepparttar 112171 preferred position for a new era. Quite simply, Nanotechnology will make every technological advance that has preceded it insignificant by comparison. The time frame for this sweeping worldwide change is short, investors who want to be atrepparttar 112172 forefront of profit in this change should begin serious investigation of this subject now because this is one future that will not wait – it is, in fact happening now.

A Brief Overview ofrepparttar 112173 Changes Forthcoming

Computer processing power continues to increase at an astounding pace, and that will continue. These extremely powerful processors have fueledrepparttar 112174 technological explosion we have all experienced and continue to experience. We are now atrepparttar 112175 tipping point. Processor speed will soon take a quantum leap in speed and flexibility because newer, faster processors are being designed withrepparttar 112176 help ofrepparttar 112177 current generation of fast processors. This sets up a chain reaction as each generation of faster processors is used to design its replacement. Human DNA is being looked at asrepparttar 112178 basis of near-term ultra fast ultra small processors. In fact, initial experiments have shown that DNA can indeed perform simple, although extremely brief, input/output operations. As faster upon faster generations of silicon-based processors, allowing for more sophisticated software, come into use, not only willrepparttar 112179 DNA-based processor hurdle be overcome,repparttar 112180 prototype DNA-based processors will thus acceleraterepparttar 112181 processor speed curve.

The human genome has been mapped – blazing processor speed will ‘crack’repparttar 112182 code, which will, in turn, allow for processors with calculation speeds unheard of today to be constructed atrepparttar 112183 molecular and atomic level.

This is currently inrepparttar 112184 works; research is going full speed on a highly accelerated track. Molecular level computing utilizing DNA based processors will result in what now may be viewed as Science Fiction, but will become fact withinrepparttar 112185 next ten years. I state again that current research is moving rapidly and breakthroughs are occurring at an astounding pace. I cannot over emphasizerepparttar 112186 importance of this issue because this molecular computing revolution will create a world that, just a few short years ago, would have been considered impossible. All of humanity will be affected and all ofrepparttar 112187 world’s economies will experience a corresponding explosion in activity and worth.

Just Imagine

What are some ofrepparttar 112188 things in store? Just imagine! In fact, let your imagination run rampant,repparttar 112189 researchers and creators of emerging Nanotechnology, and its sibling Genomics, are doing just that. Products and services will become available that today, would be viewed as miraculous. These advanced products and services will, however, become commonplace inrepparttar 112190 early 21st Century and will be replaced by a dizzying and constant stream of even more amazing products and services.

This technology, of course, will first be utilized in military, medical and scientific applications. In factrepparttar 112191 DOD research arm DARPA, is currently researching ‘super-human’ soldier applications utilizing Nanotechnology. Molecule and atomic sized computerized applications will enhancerepparttar 112192 strength, speed, agility, vision and survivability ofrepparttar 112193 soldier onrepparttar 112194 battlefield. Once perfected and implemented,repparttar 112195 ‘cyborg’ soldier applications will be able to communicate via satellite directly to commanders atrepparttar 112196 Pentagon, or inrepparttar 112197 field. What he sees with his nanite eyes, can be delivered in real-time to command centers,repparttar 112198 same will hold true for what he hears, what he thinks and his biological signs. Instructions from command and control centers will be delivered directly to his brain almost instantaneously.

Financial Freedom

Written by Roger Sorensen


Freedom - what a beautiful concept. According to Webster's Dictionaryrepparttar word freedom means "Liberty ofrepparttar 112165 person from slavery, detention, or oppression"; "the capacity to exercise choice, free will" as well as "exemption from an unpleasant or onerous condition". Is that what you think of when you think of money and freedom inrepparttar 112166 same sentence? Ask most Americans and they'll say that having "enough" money means freedom to them. Freedom from a boss, from debt, free to go where they want and do it when they want to. Yet if you look at their lifestyle, take a peek in their checkbook and you'll see that they don't really want to have that much money. If they did, wouldn't they cut back their spending and utilizerepparttar 112167 unspent money in a wiser manner? A few dollars here and a few dollars there and it will all adds up overrepparttar 112168 course of a four decade long working career. If you saved $7 a week, placed it in an account earning 4-6% interest in 20 years you will have nearly $20,000. Who couldn't use an extra $20,000 inrepparttar 112169 next two decades? Of course,repparttar 112170 younger you are when you start savingrepparttar 112171 $7 a week,repparttar 112172 morerepparttar 112173 money will grow byrepparttar 112174 time you need it. While we're looking at their checkbook, how much do they give away for charity? There is something about charity that not only makes us feel good about helping others, it also doesn't seem to make us any poorer. If you doubt me, try donating 5% of your income overrepparttar 112175 course of a year and see if you are any worse off after that year than you were before. Now take a look atrepparttar 112176 average Americans credit cards. Nearly 2/3 of us are in bondage to one or more credit card companies. Yes, I know that I said bondage and that is exactly what debt is - bondage. If you are in debt you can not exercise your free will to do what you want because you have to make those payments to pay back what you have borrowed. *On a sidebar - nearly everything purchased with a credit card is a consumer good meaning that byrepparttar 112177 time you receiverepparttar 112178 bill next month, you have already usedrepparttar 112179 item you bought. I call thisrepparttar 112180 PLUN plan - Pay Later, Use Now. Can anybody say stupid? Financial Freedom means exactly what it sounds like - freedom to use your money, your resources, your time in any manner you wish (within reason and legality of course). You don't haverepparttar 112181 onerous condition of having to work for a credit card company, a mortgage company, or any other lending agency and having to pay interest on money borrowed years ago. After all, if you owe somebody something you have to work to repay your debt so you are in fact working for that lender. Not a pretty thought. So if you agree that financial freedom is a desirable condition then why aren't more Americans striving to reach this goal? Some of us are lazy, some don't care, and a few have given up, but most just don't know how. To help you know how, at least as much as I can in this short article, there's two things you can do and one you really should do.
