For some reason I never think thought that there are as many pawn shops in the US as there are elsewhere around the world. Well, apparently I’m wrong because today there was a good article published in the USA Today quoting pawn shop owners from Mexico, China, Austrialia and South Korea.
They’re all saying the same thing! Which is basically that business is booming and people are hurting. Its a global economic downturn.

Pawn Shops Around the World are Thriving
March 12, 2009New Social Network for Millionaires
March 9, 2009Affluence.org claims to be a new social network like facebook, but for millionaires with a net worth of 3mm or over. The site checks from “a variety of sources” to see whether you can become a member.
According to the website…”Membership to Affluence.org is completely free but requires a demonstrable minimum household net worth of $3 million US; or a minimum annual household income of $300,000; or successful invitation of 5 other people that qualify for membership.”
Great idea, maybe another if you want to sell gold jewelry for cash.
