All-In-One Card – Coin

What if you could put all your credit cards into one card? Now you can put Visa, MasterCard, Discover and American Express cards into one card called Coin. When you swipe your card at the point of purchase you can now choose which one to use. What are the limitations? I can see some vendors not allowing you to use it just because it’s new. I think from a security perspective it’s still the same as your current credit card. What do you think?

If Not Now – When?

How do you stay motivated? I recently stumbled upon a TEDX video by Entrepreneur, Digital Marketing Consultant and Author Jeet Banerjee. Jeet stresses what drives him to succeed at such a young age and what keeps him going. His “If not now, when?” speech to me is a classic example of how if you put your mind to something, you can achieve your goals.
