| Posted: 06 Jul 2013 02:30 AM PDT Sports, you would have thought, is for getting people together and play a game that catches the fancy of supporters and players alike. But apart from the entertainment aspect, sports are also played for the adrenalin rush. If not even that some visibly simple sports too pose serious threat to players in case something goes wrong. Here is a list of some of the most risky and dangerous sports around the world. 10. Horseback Riding:Though it does not really appear to be a sport that could turn fatal or dangerous but it certainly is. No matter how much the horses are trained there is always that slight risk of something going wrong. And any injury from falling of a horse could range from something minimal to actually life threatening. So it is definitely one of the dangerous sports. 9. Lacrosse:It is a team sport of Native American origin played using a small rubber ball and a long-handled stick called a crosse or lacrosse stick. It is believed to have probably developed around AD 1100 and is considerably popular in America today. It's a rough game and sometimes extremely intense. A lot of injuries are reported among Lacrosse players. Though mostly played in US and Canada, it still reports an excessively long list of injury for any sport. 8. Gymnastics:Gymnastics is a sport that involves the performance of exercises. It requires physical strength, flexibility, power, agility, coordination, and balance.You must be wondering how such an elegant sport of Gymnastics could ever be dangerous. But it certainly is. A slight miscalculation could have catastrophic results. In 1988, American gymnast Julissa Gomez was injured in a vaulting accident that left her quadriplegic.Though massive safety steps and standards were incorporated since then, but still the risk certainly persists. 7. Skateboarding:It is an action sport which involves riding and performing tricks using a skateboard. It might seem harmless or a fun activity to be involved in. But truth be told it could potentially cause extremely serious injuries. Though scrapes, cuts, bruises, and sprains are minor injuries that could occur due to skate boarding, something like traumatic head injury and death is also very plausible. 6. Bull Riding:It consists of a rider getting on a large bull and attempting to stay mounted while the animal attempts to buck off the rider. Rules of the sport vary with countries they are played in.In the US, the rider must stay atop the bucking bull for eight seconds. But mostly all the countries follow the standards of the Professional Bull Riders organization. The sport has the highest rate of injury of any rodeo sport and is accounts for a major percentage of all traumatic injuries to rodeo contestants. 5. BASE jumping:It is an activity where participants jump from fixed objects and use a parachute to break their fall. They can jump from buildings, antennas, spans (bridges), and earth (cliffs), hence the name BASE. Many serious injuries and deaths have occurred in BASE jumping due to off-heading opening where the jumper might not be facing the right direction. It is an extremely dangerous sport that has a fatality and injury rate 43 times higher than parachuting from a plane. 4. Rugby:Now this is another type of football that is quite popular in certain corners of the world. If you watch it you'll see how violent and dangerous it is. It is a full contact sport and more often than not the contact isn't pleasant. The injuries in this sport are massively higher than in any other sport as it is basically a “collision” sport resulting in several dangerous injuries. 3. Cave Diving:Cave Diving is considered as one of the most dangerous sports in the world. The first cave dive was made in UK by Jack Sheppard in 1936. It is a form of penetration diving where in an emergency a diver cannot swim vertically to the surface due to the cave’s ceilings. There are various risks and hazards associated with this sport which include decompression sickness and drowning. Hence, there are very few takers of it as compared to caving and scuba diving. Specialized equipment is must for this sport. 2. Formula One:Also known as F1, it is one of the most dangerous sports in the world and intriguingly one of the most popular too. If the deaths of Ayrton Senna and Roland Ratzenberger in the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix are any indication, then the risk involved in this sport is highly substantial. Though many rules and precautions are in place aided by advanced technology, the simple fact remains that racing at speeds of up to 350 km/h cannot be without risk. 1. American football:Though it is called football in America, it is strikingly different from the 'football' played in most of the world. It is a sport that has evolved from rugby and association football. Though it is the most popular sport in the United States, it has also lead to serious injuries or even death. Dangerous mass-formations like the flying wedge among several others make this an extremely violent sport. Head injuries such as concussions or even skull fractures are common in this game.

| Top 10 Money Investment Strategies Posted: 05 Jul 2013 11:13 PM PDT Who says that man needs money only to satisfy his basic needs? It is hard to come across a person not interested in leading a luxurious life. Every man wants to earn enough money to avert a second thought while buying any product. Money makes money. Someone once said, "it's better to cry inside a BMW or Audi R8, rather than weeping inside an auto-rickshaw." To become so much rich, one has to invest a part of his savings. Anybody can become an investor, but only few people can move ahead from the level of a Green horn investor. In order to become a member of the profit-earning investors' elite group, at least some of the following investment strategies should be one's sacrosanct. 10. Debt or Equity:Without goals, a strategy is like a boat without a rudder. What's the benefit of steering in a direction one has no idea of? Actually, one should have to decide whether he wants to take risks or not. If a person is willing to take a risk, then he should choose Equity Market as his area of investment. If not, then Debt Market is always there for a warm welcome. The general rule is to invest in a a mix of bonds and stocks. 9. Invest Through Fundamental and Technical Analysis:Today, it's easy to learn how to choose your investment strategies without a loss of even a single penny. Thanks to various real-time software, which through Virtual Trading help people to get an idea about the technical jargons and practical implications associated with investment strategies. Do some homework by reading books and journals on Financial instruments and Stock Market. 8. Current Market Analysis Pays:In the stock market, nothing is firm or fixed. Until and unless you are a good Fundamental Analyst, stay away from trusting the deceptive past figures. Never rely completely on the past data, analysis or reports on any stock or bond because what is happening currently has no relation with what happened in the past. Update yourself by reading daily news for an information dose on the related topics. 7. Diversification Investment Strategy:It's a general rule of Investments and portfolio Analysis that in order to get more profits from the stock market operations, one should diversify the portfolio. Some stocks are of High Beta and others are in Low Beta. Some are directly proportional to the indices; others are inversely proportional to indices. Check the trends of various stocks and bonds in order to concoct the portfolio wisely. If you diversify your investments, then the aggregate impact of any plunge in the market will not be high. 6. Portfolio Management:Set a discipline and adhere to it. Trade in various stocks, but do not fill your portfolio with more than 15 to 18 stocks. If you still need funds, then check which stock shall be replaced with the new one. 5. Long-Term Holding:Don't expect any kind of the windfall gain ever from a stock market. Try to use "Let the other person earn" strategy. Hold on to your existing holdings and don't hold a short position (Selling of the securities that are not owned and repurchasing them at a lower rate) until and unless you are a proficient trader because if you aren’t able to honour payments, you'll be doomed. 4. Track Long and Short-Term Market Trends:The market works on the basis of sentiments. Then comes "fundamentals of the companies". Be vigilant of daily trends and act accordingly. Don't sit back and relax because it's your hard-earned money that is circulating out there. If possible and if you're knowledgeable, go for intra-day transactions. Though, they are risky, but the commission charged on them is ten times lesser than that on the Delivery transactions. 3. Contingency Investment Plans:No matter where you invest and how much amount you invest, the interest rate of earnings should be more than the rate of inflation in the market. Moreover, be ready with some contingency plan that can be easily implemented in case of any adversaries. And above all, save a proportion of earnings for any unforeseen hitches. 2. Use Consultative Buy-Sell Approach:Consult the Blue ribbons of this arena and then buy/sell the securities. Do not get impulsive in buying or selling the securities. Warren Buffett once said, "If you buy things you don't need, soon you'll sell things you need". 1. Track Transactions:"Risk comes from not knowing what you're doing". This quote by Warren Buffett hits the bull's eye of the stock market formula. First of all, stock market or mutual fund market is meant for the purpose of investing, not gambling. Ergo, don't become a victim of cupidity and don't try to plant trees during autumn. Rather, keep a record of every transaction for ready reference in case you'd like to keep track of where you went wrong. The post Top 10 Money Investment Strategies appeared first on TopYaps.  |
