I recently discovered The Trade Risk. Their weekend stock market recap comments on technical aspects of charts to evaluate the general market and industry sectors. Today, I took time to peek into their

This post has long been overdue. I was a Founder in Cohort 7 of Elevator’s Accelerator programme that ran in spring 2018. I joined with a friend’s idea – a food business. Just before the start of the

Oh, the title is cheesy. I know. Almost a reason not to buy the book. Anyway, somehow William O'Neil's writings made their way onto my shelf where they sat ignored for a while. Then I read about O'Neil

This series of books is amazing. Schwager allows us to learn from the great traders of our time by conducting interviews and adding his own comments. His conversations help the reader understand the way

Two documentaries about social enterprise revived my interest in this business model. Forget all the fluffy stuff and let's talk shop. I had been interested in social enterprise as a business model in

There were the stone age people, the iron age people and so on. We are the hydrocarbon age people who brought about the second industrial revolution. In doing so, organised society and our only habitable

I've been finding it quite difficult to gather information on individual biotech stocks, especially historic info. I was hoping to come across the ONE fountain of knowledge that saves me having to screen

NASA did it again. They came to beautiful Scotland to inspire the next generation to take up STEM subjects. Luckily, grown-ups were allowed in as well. 😏 🚀 Robots to conquer the sky The first presentation

This week I attempted to build something with paper mache for the first time ever. Amazing! I can't remember doing this as a kid but can imagine that this would be fun with children ... and extremely messy.

I'm usually fairly quiet about politics because a child could defeat me in a debate. After just reading the weekly Brexit update from MEP Alyn Smith, I feel like venting a wee bit. Brexit is a great shambles,

Steemian @blervin has recently made me aware of Manna, a new(ish) cryptocoin that aims to become THE go-to cryptocurrency for universal income, charitable giving and generally making the world a better

Some Steemians advocate long blog posts. I have two problems with that. The more words, the more effort. Right? Not necessarily! Do you think it is easy to write a short meaningful blog post? Anybody can

Today saw Greyhope Bay's launch event of their temporary pop-up space in Aberdeen's city centre. What an amazing project that arose from the bold idea of marine biologist Dr Fiona McIntyre. She is on a

English Strolling across Steemit today I stumbled across some posts from English-speaking Steemians offering up their posts to fellow Steemians for translation into other languages. This is the Operation

I've been really quiet on Steemit lately because in late January I started a workshop that was to accelerate the transformation of my immature business idea into a viable business opportunity. Getting

"Is there a difference?", you might wonder. I have always considered myself a problem solver. I see that something is wrong and fix it. Then I came across career advisers who have conveyed the
