Handling money can be difficult, particularly if you learned poor financial lessons from your parents; when you model what you learned, you may make mistakes without even realizing it. Perhaps you learned from your parents, or your parents never talked to you about money, or you simply ignored the good advice your parents gave you. Whatever the reason you are having money problems, if you are making mistakes with money, it’s important to realize it.
If you frequently don’t have enough money, that should alert you to the fact that you are making mistakes with your money; this includes not being able to pay your bills, being unable to save any money, and forgetting how you spent your money. If you frequently lack sufficient funds, or you are simply not saving, it’s time to look at your financial choices. Here are four common money mistakes that you may be making.

Snoop Dogg Launches Video Series 'To Dispel Lazy Stoner Stereotype'

In the fall of 2015, music artist, businessman, and cannabis-enthusiast Snoop Dogg launched Merry Jane, a web site and platform to offer “resources on culture, news, video, food and style dedicated to expressing a new cannabis mentality.”  Part business and part advocacy platform, Merry Jane’s latest offering is “Highly Productive” a series of short videos profiling successful business people who use cannabis. The series was created to help banish the stereotype of the lazy stoner which is often linked to the negative reputation of cannabis, according to publicist Katie Jang.

The first video, released today, showcases Lagunitas CEO Tony Magee who brews American IPA style beer in Petaluma, CA. He talks about his beer production, philosophy on life and cannabis use. Six more videos are planned for the series and will be released about once a month. Each will be about five minutes long.

Other videos on the site include Snoop chatting with friends, and short clips suggesting food and cannabis pairings. Many more varieties of video content are in the works according to the company.
Normalizing cannabis use and removing its negative stigma is a goal of Snoop Dogg as a business owner and personal use advocate. While most marijuana-related businesses are small local companies, mostly due to differences between state laws and the continuing illegality of the substance federally, Snoop Dog is one of a handful of famous personalities to enter the market with their personal brand.

You’ve picked the perfect suit and honed your elevator pitch, but if you haven’t rehearsed your answers to common job interview questions, you might have already lost out on the offer before you shake hands with the hiring manager. Being prepared to answer certain generic questions about your goals, experience, and interest in a position is essential if you’re on the hunt for a new position. Flubbing your responses, on the other hand, can send your resume straight to the recycling bin.
Though you’ll likely hear the same questions again and again over the course of your job hunt, it’s still easy to make mistakes, especially if you answer off the cuff or make the mistake of being too honest in your replies. If you want to impress a potential employer, review these five incorrect answers to common interview questions and find out what you should say instead.

1. “Why do you want to work here?”

Wrong answers: “I need a job,” “I want a shorter commute,” or

The Top African Billionaires 2016

There are 24 African billionaires this year, down from 28 last year. Tanzanian businessman and former politician Rostam Azizi, pharmaceuticals tycoon Stephan Saad and Ugandan real estate mogul Sudhir Ruparelia narrowly missed the cut this year. Moroccan banker Miloud Chaabi and Egyptian hotel tycoon Samih Sawiris also missed out.
Mohammed Dewji of Tanzania is still the youngest billionaire in Africa with a fortune FORBES estimates at $1.09 billion. Dewji, 40, debuted on the FORBES list of the World’s Billionaires last year with a $1.3 billion fortune at the time. He has lost $200 million on the back of a weaker Tanzanian shilling. Dewji is the CEO of METL Group, a Tanzanian conglomerate with interests in textiles, edible oils and transportation.

Angolan investor Isabel dos Santos and oil tycoon Folorunsho Alakija of Nigeria still remain the only two female billionaires on the continent.
