COVID-19 can do more than torment patients physically. It also clobbers some Agen Poker idn. Even though many insurers and the U.S. government have offered to pick up or waive costs tied to the virus, holes remain for big bills to slip through and surprise patients. People who weren't able to get a test showing they had the virus and those who receive care outside their insurance network are particularly vulnerable. Who provides the coverage and how hard a patient fights to lower a bill also can matter. There are no good estimates for how many patients have been hit with big bills because of the coronavirus. But the pandemic that arrived earlier this year exposed well-known gaps in a system that mixes private insurers, government programs and different levels…

As an entrepreneur, I’ve painstakingly learned the importance of heeding the best business advice I’ve received from many of the world’s top entrepreneurs. The bottom line: It takes a lot to start a business and grow it to profitability. Funny enough, the most impactful lessons have come from my biggest failures though. All in all, despite receiving great business advice and success tips back during my college days, I’ve gone on to learn more about how not to start a business through my experiences. Still, my early failures haven’t stopped me in learning from my mistakes and moving on to become gainfully self-employed. Over the past five years, I’ve gone from learning how to start a blog and growing it to more than 500,000 monthly readers (head over here if you want my top blogging tips). I’ve launched online courses, started a profitable freelance business, built physical products and more. I…

For example, in the United States roughly 9% of businesses both new and old close each year. On the flip side, only 8% are opened. We're losing more than we're gaining for the first time since those statistics have been tracked, and the crossover coincided with the recession of 2007-2009. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the overall number of business applications began to recover in late 2009 and has been trending up for the past ten years. That's good. But, the census data shows the number of planned wages (WBA) and high-propensity (HBA) business applications have not shown the same level of bounce-back. That's not so good. The failure rate for new businesses is somewhere around half, with about 50% calling it quits after the first five years. Not a great stat, but it does mean…

Starting a business for the first time and worried about failure? Give your new enterprise the best chance of success with these top business tips, the best advice I've collated from other entrepreneurs and developed from my own experience of more than 20 years of having "been there and done that" as a small business person. 1) Be Passionate You don't have to love whatever your business is about (and probably shouldn't), but you do have to be fired up about it.
