The bestselling book named PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS is the one that I choose to read and to write for a report. Although I am a student major in computer science, I am also interested in business analytics. Actually I have an idea about changing my major into Finance during my gradual time. So let us talk about this amazing book.Eric Siegel is the author of the book who is an outstanding Columbia University professor and a pioneer in business analytics field. He and his book have been featured in Businessweek, CBS MoneyWatch, Forbes, Forrester, Fortune, The Huffington Post, The New York Times, Newsweek, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, and WSJ MarketWatch. In his book, he is making his effort to fulfill the world about predictive analytics. In other words, we are going to understand how captivate the analysis is and what is the point that will lead to the prediction.This book is been divided in to several sections. These chapters are the gradual processes to let us know the PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS. There are so many uncertainties in the information era. As we all know, the further is undefined, but if we collective the most useful messages, we can make predictions based on those information. And predictions will help the humankinds to avoid business risks, violent crimes, and increase sales performance.In the first section, the author gives us some conceptions about the basic of prediction analytics. He also describes the importance of a company to adopt the prediction analytics system. By foreseeing the changes and risks of a person’s assets, the company can make its own strategies from the predictions when competing in the world. “Data is a new type of oil”says by Meglena Kuneva, a member of European Consumer Council. That kind of idea is accordance to the author’s thinking. The forecasting which is drawn from data will led to huge influence to an organization and bring profits. That’s sounds magic! The major way for prediction analytics is observation. The machine will observe massive information and put the haphazard date in order. In return, the computer will build models to fit for the appearance of our daily life and make predictions. From this chapter, I have learned the surface of prediction analytics.In the next section, there are some doubts on prediction. Some people have plenty of suspicious on this new technology. Why? It is because that some companies may use this new way to make predictions on a person private life. For instance, supermarket will foresee which person is going to give birth recently. This behavior gives offense to people. On the other hand, if we use the data prediction in other filed, it will have significant influence on our life. We also use the example of supermarket. If thesupermarket makes well predictions on a family that is going to have birth, they can put the advertisements to the parents to increase the products selling. That will bring more profits and save cost because supermarkets do not have to send majority advertisements to all kinds of people. The author thinks that data manage is more efficient an easier than manage people. We can spend less money to gain customers’ data. In return, the value that a customer will bring to the company is far beyond the cost. We have to follow the law to keep personal private or the data will literally erode us. The more the data we gain, the more responsibility we will take. He takes the knife as a metaphor about data that some people use knife to cut vegetable, and some people use knife to commit a crime. So we have to make detail rules to protect the security of data.。

Just setting up my twttr”. When Jack Dorsey tapped out that maiden 34-character tweet back in March 2006, Twitter was the side-project of a failing San Francisco start-up. Seven years and hundreds of billions of tweets later, TWTR will be the stock market ticker of a public company worth more than $12bn, chaired by Mr Dorsey in the hottest initial public offering since Facebook.“刚设置好我的twttr”。
当杰克•多尔西(Jack Dorsey)在2006年3月发出首条由34个字符组成的tweet帖子时,Twitter只是一家旧金山濒临倒闭的初创企业的次要项目。
7年后的今天,全球各地人士已经发了数千亿条tweet,由多尔西担仸董事长的Twitter将发起自Facebook上市以来最火爆的首次公开发行(IPO),公司的估值将超过120亿美元,而其股票代码将是TWTR。
Mr Dorsey’s own journey between then and now mirrors that of the messaging site itself. Just as Twitter was the ugly duckling that became a swan, so Mr Dorsey has exchanged his punk 2006 look –complete with nose ring and mathematical forearm tattoo – for expensive suits and supermodel friends like Lily Cole commensurate with his status as one of Silicon Valley’s slickest stars. The 36-year-old is now handsome and rich enough that his romantic life is raked over by tabloids.从那时到现在,多尔西本人的经历似乎映衬着这个微博客网站的发展道路。

Ross Perot,the record-holder, spent some of his billions earnedfrom computer data on losing bids in 1992 and1996. Since then men who owe their or theirfamilys fortunes to oil, sport, publishing, trial law,ketchup, beer and bestselling autobiographies havefollowed.米特?罗姆尼不是第一个竞选总统的身家数百万的富豪,也不是其中最富有的。

自此之后竞选总统的富豪也不在少数,这些人的财宝分别来自石油、运动、出版、法律等,还有靠卖番茄酱、啤酒、畅销自传等赚钱的。
But Mr Romney, who earned his $200m or so as a private-equity executive buying andselling companies, is the first candidate from the world of high-octane finance. As such, heillustrates the changing complexion of Americas rich. The wealthiest 1% of Americans notonly get more of the pie; they are increasingly creatures of finance.但是罗姆尼先生是第一个来自传奇中的金融界的候选人。
彼得·蒂尔的第一桶金
51第一桶金|财富▁Fortune彼得·蒂尔,美国硅谷精神的坐标、投资之神。
他创办了PayPal 公司,投资了硅谷一系列的顶级公司,据不完全统计,他所有的投资账面回报已经超过了1万倍。
人们惊讶于他非凡的洞察力,不过在他看来,这种能力,不过是寻找大多数人视而不见的真相。
有人说,如果你发现路上的所有的车都在逆行,那很可能是你自己开反了。
但彼得·蒂尔却是特例,他不仅能自信淡定地逆行,还能让其他所有的车都怀疑是不是自己开错了方向。
彼得·蒂尔一直被视作美国硅谷精神的代表人物,他最出名的成绩之一是对Facebook 的投资。
作为Facebook 的首个外部投资者,2004年他向扎克伯格提供了50万美元的启动资金,而这项投资后来令他获得了2万倍的收益。
而在投资Facebook 以前,他还创办了世界上第1个电子商务支付公司PayPal,并在2002年互联网泡沫破灭的时候,以15亿美元的价格将公司成功出售给了eBay;他成立的Founders Fund 基金公司,也是如今硅谷的当红炸子鸡,投资了一系列如Airbnb、Knewton、Lyft、Spotify、Stripe、ZocDoc、SpaceX 等如雷贯耳的企业;他创建的神秘大数据独角兽公司PalantirPalantir,目前估值超过400亿美元……连当年他招募加入PayPal 公司的员工和合作伙伴,后来都创建了一批市值数十亿、上百亿美元的公司,比如马斯克创办了特斯拉汽车公司,霍夫曼创办了LinkedIn,陈士骏创办了YouTube……这些人被称为是“硅谷第一天团”“Paypal 黑帮”,而彼得·蒂尔则被公认是这个“黑帮”里的教父,大佬中的大佬。
文/杜午彼得·蒂尔的第一桶金彼得·蒂尔 ▲始审视自己,他发现自己太看重这些通过竞争得来的光辉履历,从小和人竞争,却忘了自己为什么要做这些事情。
他开始思考,循规蹈矩地参与竞争真的是有价值的么?在教育体系中,年轻人在同样的方法教授下学习同样的内容,而不顾个人的天赋和爱好。

6月英语四级阅读第130篇:金融大鳄乔治·索罗斯
点击查看》》6月英语四级阅读汇总George Soros The Financial CrocodileThe speculator, George Soros, whose assault on sterling1 ejected Britain from the European exchange rate mechanism that September of 10 years ago has a mission — to use his estimated £5 billion fortune and his fame to help tackle what he sees as the failures of globalisation. The idea that a man who made billions betting on the financial markets sides with the anti-globalisation movement might strike some as ironic . Soros is clearly genuinely appalled at the damage wrought on vulnerable economies by the vast sums of money which flow across national borders every day.“The US governs the international system to protect its own economy. It is not in charge of protecting other economies, ”he says.“ So when America goes into recession, you have antirecessionary policies. When other countries are in recession, they don't have the ability to engage in antirecessionary policies because they can't have a permissive monetary policy, because money would flee . ”In person , he has the air of a philosophy professor rather than a gimlet-eyed financier. In a soft voice which bears the traces of his native Hungary, he argues that it is time to rewrite the so-called Washington consensus — the cocktail of liberalisation, privatisation and fiscal rectitude which the IMF2 has been preaching for 15 years. Developing countries no longer have the freedom to run their own economies, he argues, even when they follow perfectly sound policies. He cites Brazil, which although it has a floating currency andmanageable public debt was paying ten times over the odds to borrow from capitalmarkets.Soros, who at one stage after the fall of the Berlin Wall3 was providingmore assistance to Russia than the US government, believes in practising what hepreaches. His Open Society Institute has been pivotal in helping eastern European countries develop democratic societies and market economies. Soros hasthe advantage of an insider's knowledge of the workings of global capitalism, sohis criticism is particularly pointed. Last year, the Soros foundation's network spent nearly half a billion dollars on projects in education, public health and promoting democracy, making it one of the world's largest private donors.Soros credits the anti-globalisation movement for having made companiesmore sensitive to their wider responsibilities.“ I think [ the protesters] have made an important con tribution by making people aware of the flaws of the system, ”he says. “ People on the street had an impact on public opinion and corporations which sell to the public responded to that. ”Because the IMF has abandoned billion dollar bailouts for troubled economies, he thinks a repeat of the Asian crisis is unlikely. The fund's new“ tough love ”policy — for which Argentina is the guinea pig — has other consequences. The bailouts were a welfare system for Wall Street, with western taxpayers rescuing the banks from the consequences of unwise lending to emerging economies. Now the IMF has drawna line in the sand, credit to poor countries is drying up. “ It has created anew problem — the inadequacy of the flow of capital from centre to the periphery, ”he says.The one economy Soros is not losing any sleep about is the U. S.“ I am much more positive about the underlying economy than I am about the market, because we are waging war not only terrorism but also on recession, ”he says.“Although we don't admit it, we are actually applying Keynesian4 remedies, and I am a confirmed Keynesian. I have not yet seen an economy in recession when you are gearing up for war. ”He worries that the world's largest economic power is not living up to its responsibilities. “ I would like the United States to live up to the responsibilities of its hegemonic power because it is not going to give up its hegemonic power, ”he says.“The only thing that is realistic is for the United States to become aware that it is in its enlightened self-interest to ensure that the rest of the world benefits from their role . ”练习题:Ⅰ.

他5岁赚得人生第一桶金,26岁时只身闯荡华尔街,37岁前赚够一生财富,提前退休。
他两度环游世界,准确预测了1987年大股灾,率先预测了美国次贷危机,于1998年创立罗杰斯国际商品指数,该指数已成为全球通用的六大商品指数之一。
他被西方媒体称为“华尔街神话”“拥有水晶球的魔法师”,与沃伦·巴菲特、乔治·索罗斯并称为三大投资家。
沃伦·巴菲特曾慕名听他讲课,并认为他“把握时局大势的能力无人能及”。
乔治·索罗斯曾评价他说:“罗杰斯是杰出的分析师,一个人能做到六个人的工作。
”罗杰斯在漫长而成功的投资生涯中,积攒了很多投资的经验以及成功的法则,并将此集结成书《最富足的投资》,希望能对追求富足人生的人们有所启发和帮助。
1.假如看到未来的报纸,人人都能成为百万富翁我二十七八岁的时候,曾在纽伯格·伯曼公司工作。
有一天,一名主管边读晨报,边对我说:“吉姆,股市开盘的时候,A公司有十万股将以B价格售出,所以,我要你购进这些股票。
”果不其然,开市时,确实有一个沽盘,正是那个股数,也正是他预期的那个价格。
此人单凭阅读报纸和感知市场动态,就能够推断出将要发生的事情。
直至今日,我仍然印象深刻。
具备观察研究事物进展能力的人,一定能够获得巨大财富。
1990年至1992年周游世界之后,我开始撰写我的第一本书。
最近,一名记者告诉我说,我在这本书中所预测的事件,有许多成了事实,例如:民族主义情绪和伊斯兰武装的兴起。
其实,我只是做了富于经验的投资商所做的:阅读新闻。
在我驾驶摩托车周游世界期间,正值冷战结束。
我看到,苏维埃社会主义共和国联盟为诸多种族群体强行划定的国家边界正在开放。
没有了政治与意识形态框架的束缚,这些不同的群体最终还是要根据他们的种族、宗教或语言渊源,坚持他们自己的种族特征,这是合乎常理的。

英语作文自己赚到的第一桶金经历
英语作文自己赚到的第一桶金经历My First Bucket of Gold-Earning ExperienceWhen I was a teenager, I had always dreamt of making my own money. It wasn't just about financial independence, but more about the sense of accomplishment and pride that comes with earning your own keep. So, when I turned sixteen, I decided to start looking for ways to make some extra cash.After some research and brainstorming, I decided to start a small online business selling handmade jewelry. I had always been crafty and enjoyed making jewelry as a hobby, so I thought why not turn my passion into a business. I spent weeks perfecting my designs, sourcing materials, and setting up my online store.To my surprise, my little business took off faster than I had ever imagined. Within the first month, I had already made enough profit to cover the initial investment and then some. I was ecstatic! Not only was I making money doing something I loved, but I was also gaining valuable entrepreneurial skills and experience.As my business grew, so did my confidence and ambition. I started experimenting with new designs, reaching out tocustomers for feedback, and even attending local craft fairs to showcase my jewelry. Each step brought me closer to my goal of financial independence and self-sufficiency.Looking back, I realize that my first bucket of gold wasn't just about the money. It was about taking a risk, following my passion, and learning valuable lessons along the way. It was about believing in myself and my abilities to succeed.In conclusion, my first bucket of gold-earning experience taught me that with hard work, dedication, and a little bit of luck, anything is possible. I will always cherish the memories and lessons learned from my journey to financial independence, and I can't wait to see where my entrepreneurial spirit takes me next.。

金融英语阅读:黄金是恶魔
One day in 1848, a carpenter named Marshall, who worked in a saw mill on the American River in California, made a remarkable discovery. He noticed some bright yellow particles in the water. He bent down to pick them up, and took them to his partner, a Mr. Sutter. This was the beginning of the California Gold Rush. Sutter was a Swiss. He had gone to America some years earlier to make his fortune. 在加利福尼亚州美洲河畔锯⽊⼚的⼀位名叫马歇尔⽊匠,在1848年有⼀个惊⼈的发现。
他注意到河⾥有⼀些⾦黄发亮的颗粒,便俯⾝捧了⼀些带给他的伙伴。
他的伙伴是⼀位名叫萨特的先⽣。
这就是加利福尼亚州淘⾦热的开端。
萨特是⼀位瑞⼠⼈,⼏年前他为了发财致富到了美国。
Sutter realized the importance of the discovery and decided to file a claim so that his right to the gold would be established. So he sent a man named Bennet to San Francisco to see the Governor. He warned Bennet not to tell anyone in case people came to the valley before his claim was recognized. Bennet could not keep the secret, but the people of San Francisco did not believe him at first. Then the editor of a weekly newspaper there, Sam Brannan, went to Sutter's mill to make a report. When he came back, he ran through the streets of the town shouting “Gold! Gold!”. Within a month, almost the entire population, then only 800 people, had gone to look for the precious metal. Soldiers deserted the army, sailors left their ships and men gave up their jobs so as not to miss the chance of becoming rich. 萨特意识到这个发现的重要性,决定对其权益提出要求,以确认他对黄⾦的所有权。

吉姆-罗杰斯:我的第一桶金Jim Rogers: My First MillionPublished: November 20 2009 18:26 | Last updated: November 20 2009 18:26Since Jim Rogers, 67, co-founded the Quantum Fund with George Soros he has worked as a guest professor of finance at Columbia University and as an economic commentator. In 1998, he founded the Rogers International Commodities Index (RICI).He is the author of A Bull in China, Hot Commodities, Adventure Capitalist and Investment Biker. His latest book isA Gift to My Children, a father’s l essons for life and investing.EDITOR’S CHOICEMy first million: More columns about how the wealthy manage their money - Oct-31Raised in Alabama, Rogers started in business at the age of five, collecting empty soda bottles at the local baseball field. After graduating from Yale University in 1964, he won a scholarship to Balliol College, Oxford. He then got his first job on Wall Street.Rogers now lives in Singapore with his wife and their two young daughters.Did you think you would get to where you are?No, I am as surprised as anyone. I certainly wanted to get somewhere and was willing to work hard. I wanted to retire young, but I never thought I would retire before 40.When you realised that you had made your first million were you tempted to slow down?I can remember the exact day of my first million dollars’ net worth. It was in November 1977. I was 35. I knew I needed more than that to do what I wanted when I was 37 – the age I decided to stop working to seek adventure.What is the secret of your success?As I was not smarter than most people, I was willing to work harder than most. I was prepared to examine conventional wisdom. If everyone thinks one way, it is likely to be wrong. If you can figure out that it is wrong, you are likely to make a lot of money.What is your basic investment strategy?Buy low and sell high. I try to find something that is very cheap, where a positive change is taking place. Then I do enough homework to make sure I am right. It has got to be cheap so that, if I am wrong, I don’t lose much money. Everytime I make a mistake, it is usually because I did not do enough homework.Do not underestimate the value of due diligence. In the 1960s, General Motors was the world’s most successful company. One day, a GM analyst went to the board of directors with the message: “The Japanese are coming.” They ignored him. Investors who did their homework sold their GM stock – and bought Toyota instead.I’m not buying any stocks at the moment. If anything is undervalued now it is commodities and some currencies.What has been your most spectacular gain?The Quantum Fund. When we started the company in 1970, I had $600 in my pocket. Within 10 years, the portfolio had gained 4,200 per cent.Do you want to carry on till you drop?No. These days, I spend very few hours a day working, becauseI have two little girls and I want to spend as much time with them as possible.Both our girls have a Chinese governess and speak fluent Mandarin. For their generation, Mandarin and English will be the most important languages.Have you made any pension provision?I don’t have a pension because I hope I don’t need one. I have accumulated assets and that is what I live on.What is your commitment to charity?I have given money to students and schools around the world.I try to give scholarships to students rather than schools, because the students need the money more than administrators.Do you allow yourself the odd indulgence?I have been around the world twice. Setting off in 1990, I spent22 months travelling through six continents on a motorcycle.On my second trip, which started in 1999, my wife and I travelled for three years through 116 countries in a custom-made Mercedes.What is the most you have ever paid for a bottle of fine wine or champagne?I don’t have an upper limit for champagne, but I’ve never had the urge to spend $2,000 on a bottle of wine. I always remember my background. I did not have money as a kid.Picasso or Art Deco as an investment?I am at a stage where I am not interested in having or amassing stuff.Do you believe in passing your wealth to children?I’ve always thought that, if you give children too much, you will ruin them. I have set up my will so they don’t get muchuntil they are at least 30.I went to Yale and Oxford and a lot of rich kids were there who never had to work. I know I want my children to be well-educated and experience the workplace.Education and the necessity to work changed my life and yanked me out of the backwater of Alabama.Where should people put their money in the recession?Invest only in things you know something about. The mistake most people make is that they listen to hot tips, or act on something they read in magazines.Most people know a lot about something, so they should just stick to what they know and buy an investment in that area. That is how you get rich.You don’t get rich investing in things you know nothing about.Which of the following is a fact stated in this article?A:Jim Rogers is born rich.B:Jim Rogers still works long hours now.C:Jim Rogers speaks fluent Chinese.D:Jim Rogers had his daughters at relatively old age.………………………….……………………………………………….…………..DHe's 67 and have two young daughters.Which of the following is true about Jim Rogers' investing strategy?

Every time I make a mistake, it is usually because I did not do enough homework.According to the article, which of the following does Jim Rogers hold to be true?A: Work is a necessity.B: Stock is the best investment.C: In order to get rich, you need to take risks.D: Family is above your career.…………………………….…………………….……………..………..……AEducation and the necessity to work changed my life and yanked me out of the backwater of Alabama.Which of the following is Jim Rogers most proud of?A: Raising two kidsB: The Quantum fundC: His charity contributionD: Travelling the world……………………………………………………………………………….……………………….….BWhat has been your most spectacular gain?The Quantum Fund.
