Austin, Texas (PRWEB) January 10, 2012

Mobile phone marketing is going exponential, according to the premium marketing portal Digital Marketer. This is great news and every serious marketer now must look at including a mobile marketing strategy in their overall plan. The numbers are clear for Christmas, 2011. There were 6.8 million Android and iOS devices activated on Christmas Day alone, according to Flurry.

When compared to Christmas 2010 which had 2.8M device activations, this number is more than double from last year, and points to huge possibilities for mobile marketing services and mobile marketing advertising in 2012 and beyond.

Digital Marketer’s managing editor has made two predictions for 2012 in regards to mobile marketing trends:

“1) In 2012 , the marketers that better understand what mobile really is — the greatest self-selection marketed tool ever invented — will get in the diet lane and leave the rest behind.”

“2) Mobile technologies like NFC, GoogleWallet, and one-tap mobile payments will drastically change the way we pay for things — and it will make credit card companies very uncomfortable.”

It is always better for you to settle for less. Make sure you two things in writing first from the collection agency.First, make sure that your the settlement amount constitutes “payment in full”. Otherwise, the collection agency could later come after you for the balance. Second, get a “pay for delete” agreement with the collection before you pay them a dime. A derogatory trade line is still a derogatory trade line even if it is paid in full or settled.

Paul Gada, personal fiscal planning director for the Allsup Disability Life Planning Center

Belleville, IL (PRWEB) October 19, 2011

Beginning in January, Social Security disability recipients will see their monthly benefits increase with the 3.6 percent annual cost-of-living adjustment (COLA), according to Allsup, a countrywide provider of Social Security disability representation and Medicare plan selection services.

“This is good news for Social Security beneficiaries who have gone two years without a COLA,” said Paul Gada, personal financial planning director of the Allsup Disability Life Planning Center. “The down side is that it reflects an increase in the cost of living, and it’s also likely that existing Medicare plan participants will see their premiums increase.”

The Social Security COLA is tied to the annual increase in the Consumer Price Index, which takes into account the rate of inflation for the goods and services people buy. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) for the third quarter of the year is used to set the following year’s COLA.

Automatic benefit increases, or COLAs, have been applied to Social Security benefits since 1975 and have occurred every year except for 2010 and 2011, when consumer prices did not experience typical increases, and 1983, because of an administrative change. The COLA increase is applied to Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI), Social Security retirement and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits.

SSDI is a compulsory, tax-funded Federal insurance program rendering individuals with fiscal resources if they are ineffective to work for 12 months or longer because of a terrible disability or endmost condition. Individuals must have payed sufficient FICA taxes to be eligible.

COLA for Social Security Disability Recipients
The cost-of-living increase will be helpful to people with disabilities relying on Social Security disability benefits. Based on the average SSDI benefit of $ 1,070.40 in September 2011, the increase will amount to about $ 38.50 per month, or approximately $ 462 for the year.

But the relief may be short-lived for those also already receiving Medicare benefits. (SSDI beneficiaries begin receiving Medicare 24 months after entitlement to cash SSDI benefits.) “When there is a COLA increase, Medicare premiums increase, too. In 2012, they may increase enough to offset any COLA a Medicare beneficiary might receive from Social Security,” Gada explained.

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is expected to report 2012 Part B Medicare plan premiums in November. “It remains to be seen how much of the COLA will be consumed by rising Medicare premiums,” Gada added.

Income Decisions and Social Security COLA
To make the most from the COLA increase, it’s important that people with disabilities assess their financial situation and determine the greatest need for this additional income.

Additional priorities to consider:

    Review healthcare requirements and coverage. o    For those people already receiving Medicare benefits, annual enrollment flavouring (Oct. 15 – Dec. 7) provides the chance to change healthcare coverage. “If you think you are paying too much or you’re not getting the coverage you need, now is the time to make change,” Gada said.
o    For those awaiting Medicare eligibility, make sure to evaluate COBRA options to extend existing healthcare. Also look for healthcare resources that can help lower costs, such as drug subsidy programs. Click here for a list.
    Pay down credit card debt. National credit card debt is about $ 4,699 per borrower, according to TransUnion. “If you have credit card debts, you can add to your financial stability by applying any extra income to eliminating this debt,” Gada said.     Refinance or get mortgage help. The monthly increase, while slight, could signal the opportunity to evaluate other methods for improving your financial situation. People who have high interest rate mortgages or are having difficulty with their mortgage should investigate refinancing.     Consider additional resources. Numerous government-sponsored programs are available to low-income individuals, including help with heat, electricity, telephone and water bills; reduced public transportation fares; property tax credits; food stamps and food pantries; free meals for children attending school.

Social Security Disability & Medicare Help
Individuals with a severe or permanent disability who have quit running should consider applying for Social Security Disability Insurance benefits. Financial aspects of applying for SSDI include increased monthly income, the potential to widening COBRA healthcare coverage, medical benefits through Medicare, protected retirement benefits, dependent benefits and return-to-serve incentives.

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) December 21, 2011

With New Year’s Day quickly approaching, Los Angeles criminal defense attorney, Jerod Gunsberg, looks at the top five local stories of 2011 and suggests how each had an impact on the citizenry of Southern California.

1. Conrad Murray Trial per “Los Angeles Times”: Dr. Conrad Murray’s conviction of involuntary manslaughter for his role in the death of Michael Jackson was the celebrity criminal trial story of the year.

”A lot of credit to the defense attorneys in this inspecting for doing a noble job in the face of overwhelmingly unfavorable evidence against their client,” Jerod Gunsberg comments.

“This case is notable not only because of the celebrity-factor, but it is a definite warning to doctors or anyone entrusted to caring for patients that medicine is not a business in which the customer gets whatever he wants.”

2. No More Red Light Cameras: 2011 is the year in which Los Angeles’s red-light cameras were put out of commission as reported in the “Los Angeles Times.” For years, these cameras have infuriated drivers who argued the light was yellow when they went through it, only to find (weeks later) a letter in the mail showing a photograph of them running a red light and a demand for payment. After it came to light that these cameras were 1) not making driving any safer, 2) not cost effective, and 3) that payments of the fines were likely not enforceable by the court, the City decided to terminate the program.

“The scrapping of these red light-colored cameras is yearned overdue, they served no purpose to anyone except as a revenue generator for the city,” says Gunsberg.

3. Sentencing Realignment – State Prisoners to Serve Time in County Jail: In an effort to bring California’s overcrowded state prisons in line with federal law, the California legislature enacted a “realignment plan” as reported in “The Huffington Post.” Under this plan, anyone convicted of a non-violent offense will be sentenced to serve their time in county jail rather than state prison. In Los Angeles County, there is concern that the already frosted-crowded county jail system will become even more overcrowding, forcing the early release of thousands of inmates.

Criminal Defense Attorney Los Angeles, Gunsberg, adds, “This new law has only been in effect since October 1, so it remains to be seen whether this law will motivate Los Angeles County to seriously look at alternatives to incarceration for non-violent and drug offenders, or whether the new law will be used as a pretext to build new jail facilities in the county. Either way, this fundamentally changes the way both prosecutors and the defense bar nearing sentencing issues.”

4. Federal Crackdown on Los Angeles Medical Marijuana Dispensaries: as seen on NBC Southern California, in a seeming reversal of its hands-off approach, the U.S. Department of Justice began a crackdown on Los Angeles’ medical marijuana dispensaries. Although illegal nether federal law, qualified patients are permitted to use medical marijuana in accordance with California state law. At one point, the Obama administration had made an informal promise not to target logical medical marijuana dispensaries in California; however, that policy changed this year. Medical marijuana dispensary operators and landlords who had dispensaries as tenants were either raided by the DEA or received notices to cease operations under the threat of federal changes.

5. Lindsay, Lindsay, Lindsay: Lindsay Lohan makes the list for the second year in a row. After her theft case, her Los Angeles probation violation, her brief stays in jail, her bungled efforts at complying with the terms of her probation, it seems that Lindsay is ending the year on the upswing and finally in compliance with her probation.

Gunsberg again, “There is a misconception that she was treated differently than everyone else. That’s not alined. Lindsay received the same treatment, the same sentence, the same punishment and the same early-release from jail that anyone in her position would have received. What was truly interesting about the Lindsay Lohan saga is that it allowed the public to see exactly how the probation and county jail system works.”
