Prosperity Is About More Than Money

Yesterday’s blog was entitled 10 Quarterly Review Questions To Get You On Track and part of the process was answering the first three questions of ten:

1. What goals did you accomplish in the first quarter of 2012?
2. Why are they significant?
3. How do they make you feel?

The reason that I say that prosperity is about more than money is a lot of the time you have to measure your accomplishments along with how they make you feel and the money will follow.

Here are my answers to the above three questions:

What is an E1 visa?

The E-1 treaty trader visa is a non-immigrant visa which allows foreign nationals of a treaty nation to enter into the U.S. and carry out substantial trade. A treaty trader belongs to a nation that maintains a treaty of commerce and navigation or a bilateral agreement with the U.S.

Note: Trade includes commercial transactions in goods and trade in services and technology like banking, insurance, transportation, tourism, communications, data processing, advertising, accounting, design and engineering, management consulting, technology transfer and other measurable services which may be traded.
