What can I import from China/India to sell?
I was thinking of importing iPod's from china and selling them on ebay and to my friends to make money? Any other suggestions? Also am I allowed to import from China? Do I need any legalization to sell things? I don't know thanks for the help :)

You are not allowed to import Apple products to sell. They are heavily controlled. If you are not an authorized reseller, you could be in a lot of trouble, the least of which is confiscation of goods. A generic mp3 player maybe. There are a lot of things to import. You could always go to China and browse wholesale markets. It's actually a facinating experience. Silk clothing, purses (not fake designer ones), cell phone accesories, non logo gaming accessories, etc. Do not import western based electronic media and software. When you ship them, they will be confiscated, because they are most likely pirated. Foreign (specific to that country) TV shows in DVD packs are ok.

There are probably as many takes on this as there are humans alive who use money. On on extreme are those who believe that there is no wealthy without a power advantage to extract money from those with less power. This can be anything from armed robbery to sale of the latest technology. At the other extreme is the concept that a fool and his or her money are soon parted. Someone must be the receiver, so it might as well be some of the wealthy. An often used counter question to yours is who knows better what to do with prosperity than those who have money and are used to using it?

Is American Culture dead? Is America, only a place to make money and leave?
Is American Culture dead? Is America, only a place to make money and leave?
I think, American culture is nothing to be proud of. But America is a good place to make money, I just don't find people and the values in this society any interest to me. You wake up go to work, eat, sleep, and do it again. Going to entertainment is not much fun either because people are to egotistical to be with, they walk around with flashing signs as to say, "hey look at me!" very narcisistic. they buy fancy cars for the purpose of showing people how much money they have. That kind of value is bad. Even if you are pretty and rich, having bad values, don't make you any more attractive. So, I found out how to make money and not have to live in the USA. I trade stocks on the internet and live in my paradise in china. that way, I have the best of both worlds, make money and live in a culture I am proud of.

Would it make economic sense to move from USA to China?
Would it make economic sense to move from USA to China?
I know the USA is a great country, but from a money-making perspective. It looks like China is what USA used to be like when the US economy was booming and we had thriving industries in America, which are now gone forever. 1) China manufactures almost everything. 2) China has high-speed rail systems and public works. 3) Chinese services in America are very price-competitive. (e.g. Chinatown Buslines operates busses by the hour Washington, DC to New York City ($17.50 each way). $15 each way to Boston. Chinese are economically more and more efficient by cutting costs. 4) China for the first year in history, purchase more automobiles than the United States, and they are surpassing Germany and Japan in auto production. 5) China controls everything now, including the value of the USA currency. 6) China also does not need to invest in the Defense budget of the USA because nobody wants to fight a country with 1.3 Billion subjects. 7) China has more manpower than the USA and far more growth potential, because there are much fewer labor laws, no unionization of workers, no minimum wage, much more cost efficient at pretty much everything. The NEW USA is happening right now in China. In China, it is like the way things used to be in the United States. In China, if you want to manufacture automobiles, manufacure steel, manufacture computers, manufacture clothing, manufacture headphones, manufacture DVD machines....there's factories everywhere you look...all the factories that were once USA factories. Shouldn't we just move to China? china everyone is Chinese, there's no subsidies for minorities, there's no real diversity, it's just everybody's one....they are Chinese

How do you make money trading currencies? Please explain as if to a first grader....?
I feel like I'm losing money everyday keeping my savings in USD. I live abroad but kept my money in USD because I just kinda figured it was safer, but boy I should've switched it to RMB (Chinese yuan) a long time ago. Now I'm moving to Japan in a few days and wonder if it would be better to take out all that money now (in China) and then switch it from RMB to yen, or if I should wait til I get to Japan and just switch USD-YEN. What's the best plan of action? I heard the dollar just fell a whole bunch against the yen, so thats why im asking. I don't really understand the currencies market...

How can China best improve the life of its rural farmers?
How can China best improve the life of its rural farmers?
I perceive a need to distribute China's population farther from the east coast cities, yet the lure of a comfy life in Shanghai, et al. and/or the opportunity to make money in the cities appeals to many rural persons. Might there be a way to encourage a reverse migration? @Exco - Might a better transportation system to the west (Central Asia) be of some benefit? I'm thinking of something like an Atlanta-sized transport hub in the Uyghur region, flying cargo in and out from the EU, Africa, etc.

life as a rural farmer is already better than Shanghai: organic food free range chicken, duck, geese... no pollution in air living in nature free education til 9th grade no tax at all can have more than 1 kid not drenched with materialism, blind consumerism, divorce rate is low no temptation such as gambling, prostitution, so less likely to get aids, syphyllis... probably live longer life

Put a representative government in place of the private club that now runs the nation. Then you have people with equal voting power in the group that makes the decisions on what the nation needs. A rich power broker who only wants to make money and to wield international power will never be able to make sane decisions about anything to do with the rural life in China. Do you think a baker could give qualified information on how to build and power generator and where it would need to be? Look at what the nation of China has done in the past few years, not the people but the nation. The country that was here for thousands of years and will be only a poisoned mass of pollution if it continues going the way it is headed.

Pay them for what they do might help . But if you did that people would have to make more in the cities so the ccp would not go for that . I think get the ccp out are "the club" and get people who know what to do . It might help there whole country .

Capitalism is great, but it's not very likely that someone is going to tell you how to make money on the web. They all want to make themselves, if you find someone then tell me also. However if you really want to make money on the web then be original and honest. Those two things are where to start.

What is the best way to handle a money transfer from parents in China to US for a home down payment?
What is the best way to handle a money transfer from parents in China to US for a home down payment?
My wife's parents want to send us a sizeable amount of money for the purchase of our first home. We are looking for advice on how to handle this. What is the best way to do this? Because of the fact that the money is coming from abroad it makes the issue confusing. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Try mutual funds and etfs. Also, try this site, which gives good stock recommendations: http://alpha-investing.com/ But i recommend MCHFX, FXI and CAF. Those are all very good. And as you said, "more disposable income" which means more earnings for banks. FXI and MCHFX both do that. Although, FXI is more heavily invested in financials that MCHFX. CAF is also a very volatile stock, but if you are very bullish on china (like i am) i would buy some of it. I suggest all 3 of the above if you have the money.
2 :
Hi, I do not recommend ETFs or Mutual Funds. Currently the Chinese stocks are over valued. The time to buy Chinese stocks was when the DOW was floating at 7000 points. Sectors I recommend you track are the Chinese industrials. NYSE: FMCN, PTR, ACH, PKX, Stay away from Baidu, or those Internet stocks. Alternatively you can buy American stocks that have huge presence in China. Chinese people really like eating KFC Chicken. Chinese people do not gamble any more than Americans do. Please don't say that if you yourself admit to not-knowing much about Chinese culture.
3 :
There is no rising middle class in China, only the rocketing price of estates. And due to the later one, the middle class actually stops growing if not declining. Most of their income are sucked by loan repayment. The stock market in China is full of craps. So the only thing you may take advantage of, is the rocketing price of estates in China. However, with the money for a decent apartment in Shanghai, you probably could buy a house in a decent area in California. And a bubble always bursts at the end, you just don't know when it will.

5 :
Your question is based on a flawed assumption. China has not "loaned" the U.S. any money. What China has done is bought US Government bonds, the same way that a large number of private investors have. Bonds --whether from a government or from a company -- require periodic payment of interest and have a maturity date. The bondholder does not have a right to demand repayment until the "maturity date" on the bond. On that date, the bond is paid in full. The only way that the bondholder can get "full" payment on the bond prior to the maturity date is to sell the bond to another person. Bonds have different lengths. Some mature in a month, some mature in a year, some mature in 20 or 30 years. Additionally when bonds are sold on the open market, the price paid for them is not necessarily the same as the amount due on the maturiy date. (Depending on what buyers think about the adequacy of the interest rate on the bond, a bond with a redemption value -- the amount paid when it matures -- of $1,000.00 could bring $1,010.00 when it is sold or could bring only $950.00 when sold.) Normally, the US government pays for maturing bonds by selling new bonds. Now what China could do that would cause a problem -- either now or when its bonds mature -- is stop buying new bonds. If a major purchaser stopped buying bonds, the price of bonds would fall meaning that the US would have to sell bonds with a higher total maturity value (which would mean more money due at the end and more interest payments annually) to raise the same amount of money. One way that the US might cope with a major buyer dropping out of the bond market is for the Federal Reserve Board to increase the amount of bonds that it purchases. The role of the Federal Reserve Board in the government bond market is what most people actually mean when they talk about the government printing more money. Basically, all the Federal Reserve Board does is loan money to banks and the federal government. When it is loaning out money -- buying government bonds -- it is increasing the money supply (i.e. printing money). When it is having those loans repaid (selling the bonds that it owns or redeeming them), it is decreasing the money supply. Some economists believe that increasing the money suppy is one cause of inflation.

They are accounted as revenues to the parent company. If the business is situated in a low tax zone overseas or a tax-haven, then the company's profit increases. If this money is not repatriated back to the US (i.e, not brought back to the US) or given as dividends to the shareholders, then taxes on these can be deferred, which means no money comes as taxes to the US. We need a trade expert to talk more about this but here's the source below for more information.
I see a lot of Mc Donald's and other companies in China for instance but we are having a hard time here. Pleas serious answer only Ok I am getting it so when jobs are outsourced Americans lose altogether, no taxes come back right?

Where will money made from the Chinese Olympics go, and who will benefit?
Where will money made from the Chinese Olympics go, and who will benefit?
I'm assuming China expects to make a lot of money from the Games, which is of course why countries want to hold them. But where does the money come from, and where will it go? Are China's businesses all state-owned? Will money go to athletics groups in thecountry, and on training for young aspiring athletes? All will all the money raised go towards propping up the Chinese state?

Since we have such a large debt with china, wouldn't their devaluing of currency actually make it easier?
Since we have such a large debt with china, wouldn't their devaluing of currency actually make it easier?
Since we have such a large debt with china, wouldn't their devaluing of currency actually make it easier for us to pay them back? I'm confused as to the exchange rate logic behind all of this. When US borrows Chinese money, it essentially sells china US bonds. Thus it receives Yen. Which must be converted into dollars? Correct? If you could get more dollars for your yen, then this makes bond selling prospects better no?

They are devaluing their currency all the time by pegging it to the dollar. To maintain the peg the Chinese central bank buys dollars from Chinese exporters with newly printed Yuan. Then they use these dollars to buy - among others - US bonds. If the U.S. wanted to pay back their debt it would have to cut 1,6 trillion in government spending. Yuan devaluation makes it easier for the U.S. to go into more debt, and not to pay the debt back.

How a 16 year old can make a lot of money through the internet?
So this kid who goes to my school was standing near me and he pulls out this huge wad of cash. I don't know him, and frankly I'm a little scared of him because he is one of the bad kids in my school. But I overheard him saying he got it from some guy in China that he didn't know. Through money order or something like that (I think.) I'm guessing he did this using the internet, but I dont know what he could have done. Does anyone have any ideas?! What is fraud? O_o

Could you set up a website for donations explaining why you want to go and set up donations? I'm not sure how that is done, but know people who have done that. If you attend church, perhaps you could put a posting in the bulletin. I think at 14 in my particular state you can do some jobs, like bagging groceries, but theres not a lot of options. Good luck.

Well fundraisers aren't appropriate because you are trying to raise money for your own benefit and people who buy from fund raising sales think their money is going to charity so that wouldn't be right. If you are a babysitter you should be able to get enough business that way. Call up some of your friends and start a network where if they can't babysit when they are asked one night they can refer you, and offer to do the same for them.

Ok first let me get to the core of your question... between capitalism and communism, which is inherently bad or good? Or maybe the difference? A. Capitalism, from a moral stance, is more evil... as it teaches ppl from birth that their entire worth evolves around 'self'. We see this everyday with our idolizing and rewarding the rich, most of whom inherited this wealth. The ppl who work just as hard all day long as janitors or store clerks are belittled. We reward the Donald Trumps, the Oprah Winfreys, the football stars, etc... If you live in a mobile home, you are considered trash. Communism evolves around community where you are valued by how much you put into your community and not by how much more you have than someone else. B. China/USA trade... I think you are asking if communism is considered so bad then why does the USA trade with them to the extent we do in order to make lots of money. - the answer is partially in part A of this answer... meaning there are no morals in a capitalist economy except to reward wealth no matter what means were used to obtain that wealth. - the other part of the answer to B is that the USA believes it is converting China to a free-market... the uneducated call this democracy because they don't understand that democracy has nothing to do with economic structures such as communist, capitalism, etc... There are many different forms of democracies. Simply put and to reiterate, China is finding that when you combine a free-market to a degree with communism, the result is the fastest growing economy in world history.

In what alternate universe does it make sense to give MORE money to the Obama administration?
In what alternate universe does it make sense to give MORE money to the Obama administration?
The Obama administration is spending $1.63 for every $1.00 it takes in. We have a $1.3 trillion per year spending deficit, and $13 trillion in national debt that Communist China owns 20% of! Yet liberals think that raising taxes on the top 2% to give Obama even MORE money to spend is a good idea? How do they figure? How is giving a crack addict MORE crack going to get them to stop smoking crack?

The same one that it makes sense to give more money to rich people to create jobs when demand for product doesn't demand more labor for production, because consumer confidence is low.
2 :
So your solution to the deficit is to not raise more money in taxes. That's ... interesting. Do you really not understand that making up the budget shortfall through higher revenues would solve the budget shortfall? The top 2% hasn't suffered from the recession. The top 2% has absorbed the ENTIRETY of the USA's economic growth since 1982. The top 2% contributes almost nothing to the American economy. Why not tax them more?

Maybe Bizzaro World. "The concept of "Bizarro" has been ingrained in popular culture where it has come to mean a weirdly mutilated version of anything, not confined to characters in DC Comics publications and as such, so has the concept of Bizarro World."

5 :
The leftist thinks that if you tax "the rich" more and give it to government, government will also resist the temptation to spend that extra cash and will instead pay down the deficit/debt. You buyin' that bullshit?
6 :
The tax increases are to reduce the deficit. We should increase everyone's taxes, but we'll start with the rich.
7 :
Apparently the same alternate universe where we transfer more wealth from the lower classes to the super rich in the form of "tax cuts." The GOP/TP are absolute liars! They claim multimillionaires need "tax cuts" to stimulate small business (Romney on Jay Leno) - yet, they have never addressed DIRECTED TAX CREDITS FOR JOB CREATION! The GOP/TP are crooks and liars. Watch - in TX, where the TP loons have taken over the State Legislature, the result of their 2 year tenure will be: -make life more difficult for pregnant teens -discriminate more against gays -steal from the middle class and gift the rich -NOTHING ELSE. Any takers?
8 :
money to spend? how about money to PAY THE NATIONAL DEFICIT? since 1980, since the Reagan cuts, we have been sunk into a national deficit, no longer depending on our own economy, but borrowing from others so we could have more. the only time taxes have been raised was in fact during the Clinton years, when our deficit was actually decreasing, and our economy was moving, but now that has all changed. we don't need more money to spend, we need to save money, make national security cuts and stop this mass mobilization of our armed forces. to live in this country, like all others, you must pay taxes. when people say if you don't like it here then get out, this is a complete contradiction of America. if you don't like it, change it, and as long as you keep it legal and pay your taxes, you can say whatever the hell you want, and that's damn sure worth my money.

In this universe, the Obama administration is dealing with the lingering adverse effects of the Great Recession which started under Bush and which was due to the bad Republican policies that were practiced for years. Such policies included the Bush administration's irresponsible fiscal policies which spent taxpayer money on expensive and unnecessary war while cutting taxes, which mostly benefited the wealthiest Americans. Clinton's budget surpluses were turned into record-setting deficits. Such bad policies also included lax oversight which allowed businesses to run amok and engage in practices that nearly completely crashed the economy. The Obama administration's formidable task was to jolt the economy out of the Great Recession, find a way to put the economy on a sustained recovery footing and alleviate the economic suffering of the millions of Americans who were adversely affected by the severe economic downturn. So far the Obama administration has been doing a good job but the recovery is slow. You know very well that the spending that the Obama administration has engaged in has been to try to help the crashed economy recover. President Obama has not started any unnecessary wars or transferred more of the tax burden from the rich to the middle class or relaxed regulatory oversight in order to let businesses come up with any more "creative" stunts that could crash the economy. If you or others of your ilk have any worthwhile suggestions as to how to accomplish helping the country fully recover from this dire situation, the likes of which we have not seen since the Great Depression, we most certainly have not heard them.

The same universe that it makes sense for me ( a man who makes less than 50k) to pay for a tax cut for those who make 5 to 5000 or more times as much. At least the Obama administration is willing to reinvest in this country. Also you should talk to your connie Reps if you want to save money, tell them to stop voting to raise your taxes.
The Obama administration is spending $1.63 for every $1.00 it takes in. We have a $1.3 trillion per year spending deficit, and $13 trillion in national debt that Communist China owns 20% of! Yet liberals think that raising taxes on the top 2% to give Obama even MORE money to spend is a good idea? How do they figure? How is giving a crack addict MORE crack going to get them to stop smoking crack?

The same one that it makes sense to give more money to rich people to create jobs when demand for product doesn't demand more labor for production, because consumer confidence is low.
2 :
So your solution to the deficit is to not raise more money in taxes. That's ... interesting. Do you really not understand that making up the budget shortfall through higher revenues would solve the budget shortfall? The top 2% hasn't suffered from the recession. The top 2% has absorbed the ENTIRETY of the USA's economic growth since 1982. The top 2% contributes almost nothing to the American economy. Why not tax them more?
3 :
Maybe Bizzaro World. "The concept of "Bizarro" has been ingrained in popular culture where it has come to mean a weirdly mutilated version of anything, not confined to characters in DC Comics publications and as such, so has the concept of Bizarro World."
4 :
In what alternate universe is the GOP going to generate millions of new jobs and cut down on wasteful projects? Won't happen. They're all for sale...bought and paid for.
5 :
The leftist thinks that if you tax "the rich" more and give it to government, government will also resist the temptation to spend that extra cash and will instead pay down the deficit/debt. You buyin' that bullshit?
6 :
The tax increases are to reduce the deficit. We should increase everyone's taxes, but we'll start with the rich.
7 :
Apparently the same alternate universe where we transfer more wealth from the lower classes to the super rich in the form of "tax cuts." The GOP/TP are absolute liars! They claim multimillionaires need "tax cuts" to stimulate small business (Romney on Jay Leno) - yet, they have never addressed DIRECTED TAX CREDITS FOR JOB CREATION! The GOP/TP are crooks and liars. Watch - in TX, where the TP loons have taken over the State Legislature, the result of their 2 year tenure will be: -make life more difficult for pregnant teens -discriminate more against gays -steal from the middle class and gift the rich -NOTHING ELSE. Any takers?
8 :
money to spend? how about money to PAY THE NATIONAL DEFICIT? since 1980, since the Reagan cuts, we have been sunk into a national deficit, no longer depending on our own economy, but borrowing from others so we could have more. the only time taxes have been raised was in fact during the Clinton years, when our deficit was actually decreasing, and our economy was moving, but now that has all changed. we don't need more money to spend, we need to save money, make national security cuts and stop this mass mobilization of our armed forces. to live in this country, like all others, you must pay taxes. when people say if you don't like it here then get out, this is a complete contradiction of America. if you don't like it, change it, and as long as you keep it legal and pay your taxes, you can say whatever the hell you want, and that's damn sure worth my money.
9 :
In this universe, the Obama administration is dealing with the lingering adverse effects of the Great Recession which started under Bush and which was due to the bad Republican policies that were practiced for years. Such policies included the Bush administration's irresponsible fiscal policies which spent taxpayer money on expensive and unnecessary war while cutting taxes, which mostly benefited the wealthiest Americans. Clinton's budget surpluses were turned into record-setting deficits. Such bad policies also included lax oversight which allowed businesses to run amok and engage in practices that nearly completely crashed the economy. The Obama administration's formidable task was to jolt the economy out of the Great Recession, find a way to put the economy on a sustained recovery footing and alleviate the economic suffering of the millions of Americans who were adversely affected by the severe economic downturn. So far the Obama administration has been doing a good job but the recovery is slow. You know very well that the spending that the Obama administration has engaged in has been to try to help the crashed economy recover. President Obama has not started any unnecessary wars or transferred more of the tax burden from the rich to the middle class or relaxed regulatory oversight in order to let businesses come up with any more "creative" stunts that could crash the economy.

Did China make a booboo?
Did China make a booboo?
I have been saying for a while that China would regret using Islam to rid areas like Tibet and other provinces of their unwanted nationalistic cultures. It now looks like just the barest of beginnings of the worst riots to hit China. Since our economy will collapse without a lot more money from China, what will happen if China starts having more pressing issues than giving us money? Thank you for your comment Josh. However, although it may still have a little ways to go, I believe we will be looking at the first seeds of a civil war in China. They will be in no condition to help anyone, including themselves. Even one of the most communist governments in the world can underestimate the power of enemies within its own borders.

I'm not that up on all the world news and politics as you are so didn't know about this. But, I can say that surely they will regret such a mistake! And thinking ahead about the financial disasters that might take place, it just looks very bad. Only the Lord knows how he will take care of us when famine and other disasters hit. There will be so much misery and people blaming the wrong things because they are confused and bitter and need to blame something. Christians have been going through heavy trials for quite some years now---I see this as God purifying us so that we will trust him completely, and also be ready for worse times that will come upon us.

First of all, you can't "speak Chinese". You can write Chinese, because ideographs used by speakers of various Chinese languages are largely the same, but you need to speak a specific language, such as Mandarin or Cantonese. Second, knowing "a little bit about China" is not enough. To succeed in China, you need long-term relationships with people who are in a position to seriously help you or introduce you to people who are in a position to seriously help you. As to making money investing in China, the most popular way seems to be buliding factories to make low-cost consumer products for sale in North America, Japan, and Europe...

2 :
"Can" is present tense. "Could" (like "should," "would," and "might")is used two ways. It's the past tense of "can," as in "You could make more money investing in America fifty years ago than you can today," and it's also the conditional form of "can," as in "You could make lots of money investing in China if you had enough to start with." In the first sentence, "could" means "were able to." In the second, it means "would be able to." Does thios clear things up for you?
3 :
I believe that can asks if you are capable, could asks if you are willing
4 :
In your examples, I am taking can as the present indicative and could as the present subjunctive (not the past tense). So, for #1 you definitely will make more money investing in China. For #2, you might be able to make more money investing in China, but it is not definite. The subjunctive mood is a conditional mood; certain things must happen for it to come true. You need to meet those conditions in order to make more money in China.
