I need to make some money and was wondering what items haven't been released in UK yet but are available USA?
Having seen the Kindle coming to the UK soon I'm interested in sourcing popular products that aren't available in the UK as yet but are available elsewhere such as USA/China etc. Thanks in advance.

Apparently they don't have ketchup over there, so, you could have that as a side item or something.

I've heard that some American brands of breakfast cereal are not offered in the UK/Australia/New Zealand but are popular with Americans living overseas. I live in the USA and I've seen people actually mailing out boxes of cereal to people overseas. Maybe you can make money off of that?

What education and health conditions did the Chinese have before they immigrated to China in the 1800's?
What education and health conditions did the Chinese have before they immigrated to China in the 1800's?
And I'm talking about the conditions from around 1840's-1880's when many Chinese people immigrated to the US. I want to know what kind of education they received before immigrating (and in the US too when they immigrated); what kind of health conditions they had and if they had doctors or not (in the US after they immigrated as well); how much money did they make in China before they immigrated. Some sources would be good of where you found the answers.

Their lives were quite bad at that time, the foreigners told them that the US is a good place where they can earn food ,find things to eat and live with freedom, just because of this , many of them were immigrated to America , in other words , they were cheated by foreigners , as I have mentioned at the begining , most of them lived along the costal areas in south China, that's also the reason why nowdays most of the chinese-expatriates' roots were from south china ! unfortunately, when they immigrated to the US , what's waitting them were not gold and happiness! but hardwork and discrimination! they had doctors' in china , but different from the doctors we know , those days , they are traditional chinese doctories and treat others with the acient chinese medcine(herbs and other animals' organs,ect) , while ,when they immirated to America , no one care them , many of them died of tiring job, maybe u know that the famous Pacific railway acrossing the US from east to the west was built by these chinese with the sacrifices of thousands of them! hope my answer would be helpful for you!

You could work for a company that does a lot of its trading in China, or you could be one of the few people in America that has detailed information about new products that Chinese companies are going to be producing.
2 :
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...

Take over the chinese government and sell chickens to the dhali lama.
4 :
got a better idea speak alot of American and know alot about American and invest in an American company such as United States Steel(one of the last great American companies). Be American buy American

grammar question: Difference between "can" and "could" i.e. You can / could make more money....?
Hello, I'm confused about the difference in meaning between the words "can" and "could". What is the difference in meaning of the two following sentences? 1. You "can" make more money investing in China than you "can" investing in America. 2. You "could" make more money investing in China than you "could" investing in America.

can is in the present most times could is in the future or past tense. You could buy gas for 75 cents a gallon in 1986,you can buy gas for 2.75 in 2010 and i suppose we could see prices as high as 5 dollars soon. we never can tell.
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.
