Mature porn star energises ageing JapanSHIGEO Tokuda, 74, might look like an average Japanese grandfather, but appearances can be deceiving — he is the country's king of elderly porn, a fast growing niche market in this greying society. A former travel agent who quit his job just four years ago, Tokuda has stretched the limits of eroticism among the silver-haired, overturning social norms in a country where people are expected to grow old gracefully.

"Wealth is not measured by how much money we earn, or how much assets we have. It is measured by how much freedom we have to make the choices that are important to us: the freedom to choose where, how and why we live our lives."
-- Marquez Comelab
We go to work everyday. It is something we need to do, so we might as well do it with happy spirits. But in our spare time, nothing stops us from exploring the possibilities of all that we can achieve and all that we can give to ourselves, to the people we love and to the world around us.
You may already be trading the financial markets or you may have never heard of currency trading before, but if you want to take ownership and responsibility for your own economic future, then this book is for you.
In his simple, easy-to-understand language, the author takes you through a thorough study of all the crucial aspects of trading that can help novice and intermediate traders. Reading through it is much like having a friend next to you, patiently explaining everything you need to know to prepare for your journey, avoid the pitfalls of trading, accelerate your education and develop your own trading methodology.
REVIEW
"Your book is extremely well written. I have now read many and it shows all others to be amateur in comparison. It is the inspiration for me entering the profession with confidence after previously coming to the conclusion that Forex is nothing but a gamble."

The Tyranny Of God
E-Book Edition
$15 USDs
Is there a God? Where do the animals, plants and human beings come from? Are scriptures the words of gods? Does religion teach us to live moral lives? Why do so many people kill and are killed over it? How should we live our lives if God exists? How should we live it if God does NOT exist?
This book explores the truth behind our beliefs in God and the propensity of human beings to be religious. In an honest attempt to seek the answers to life's deepest questions, I probe into how life began. I then progress to investigate the true nature of religions and their impact on our lives and the rest of humanity.
The main purpose of this book is not to argue against religion. Rather, it tells our story and how we have come to oppress ourselves with the tyranny of our own beliefs. I wrote this book to include everything I discovered to be relevant in my search for the truth, not just the truth behind God and morality, but also behind us and our existence. Instead of reading this book with the expectation that it is trying to prove the tyranny of God, I would like to recommend you read it as a story book: as a book that tells the story of humanity from the Big Bang.
REVIEW
"While Comelab's writing is always moderate in tone, its message clearly undermines current distractions with accommodationist arguments towards presumed religious "moderates". It is written with the fresh confidence of a young man who has had early success in his adopted country and only recently come to realise the truth of atheism. For those like me whose only worry about Atheism has long been its faultering progress, Comelab reminds us that much of the energy must continue to come from those who have more recently learned the truth. He seems more than bright enough to soon progress to seeing atheism not as an end but as a starting point to the kind of understanding that should enable us to work towards a future incomparably better than any heaven the faithful can imagine."
