Is It Ok For A 43 Year Old Single Male To Search For His “niche” In Life?


I am a 43 year old male who has been in sales for many years but is starting realize that I may not be in the right line of work. I am engaging with people but I am not a passionate sales guy. My salary is great and I work for a great firm but I am actually thinking of finding my true talents and strengths and following their voice. I am taking tests to find my true strengths and talents and have found that the sales industry may not be my natural fit.
Since I am a single guy at my age I have the “luxury” of time to search for my calling in life. Is this too socially odd or weird from a social norm perspective? Is it too weird that a 43 year old man is looking for his calling?

Why Does China’s Solar Giant Suntech Near Bankruptcy In Just One Year?


By Bill Savadove, AFP News,
China’s Suntech has made a painful journey from being the world’s largest solar panel producer to flirting with bankruptcy in just a year, highlighting the woes of the industry it shaped.
Oversupply as Chinese producers flooded the market and trade disputes over alleged Chinese dumping caused a sudden and spectacular reversal of fortunes for Suntech, which has defaulted on repayments for a $541 million bond issue.
The board ousted the company’s renowned founder just days ago after 12 years in which he led it from nothing to world market domination and now to the edge of ruin, leaving it scrambling to secure new funding and hold creditors at bay.
The global solar industry has been burned by the economic slowdown in Europe and the United States, together with weak prices blamed on Chinese companies which sought to build market share by under-cutting competitors.
The European Union and United States last year targeted Suntech and other Chinese solar panel and cell makers, accusing them of selling their products at below cost and receiving “unfair” government subsidies.
Suntech, a private company, denied the allegations but made no secret of its aim to keep prices at rock bottom, which it said made solar energy available to more people. Analysts said Suntech’s business model, deliberately pushing down prices to capture larger market share despite narrower profit margins, contained the seeds of its own destruction.
“What (Suntech) has done is increase supply to the market so much, that they really almost can’t sell anything at a profit now,” said Ben Cavender, associate principal of China Market Research Group (CMR) in Shanghai.
Suntech recorded a net loss of $1.0 billion in 2011, from a profit of $237 million in 2010, according to company filings. The firm has yet to report financial results for 2012.
Once an investors’ darling, its New York-listed shares have plunged from a high of $90.00 in early 2008. They closed down 7.81 percent at $0.59 in New York on Tuesday. “It is going to be difficult for them going forward,” Cavender added. “You might end up seeing a very different company down the road.”
Suntech said earlier this month it would shut a manufacturing plant in the United States in a bid to “rationalise” production capacity.
China’s National Business Daily on Tuesday quoted an official in the eastern city of Wuxi, where the firm is headquartered and employs 14,000 people, as saying it would undergo restructuring under bankruptcy proceedings.
Analysts said Suntech faced a problem common to Chinese private firms, growing rapidly in the country’s economic boom but becoming unwieldy and unmanageable as it turned into a vast corporation.
“Suntech, as a private firm, went too fast in its expansion,” said Liu Wenping, a partner in Shanghai-based solar investment consulting firm Sapphire Capital.
“The founder, with the role of scientist-entrepreneur, didn’t have the experience to manage such a big company with tens of thousands of workers.”
Suntech’s founder Shi Zhengrong — listed as one of China’s richest people by the independent Hurun Report last year, worth $476 million — was ousted as chairman earlier this month. He called the move “misconceived and unlawful” in a statement, vowing further action.
While more than 60 percent of Suntech’s bondholders have given the company a two-month extension for payment, some are planning to sue to recoup their investment, Dow Jones Newswires reported.
The default could cause foreign investors to sour further on China, after a string of accounting scandals involving Chinese firms listed in the United States and other overseas markets, analysts said.
US equipment giant Caterpillar recently revealed that it had found fake accounts at a Chinese firm it acquired for more than $650 million last year, in another cautionary tale for foreign investors in the hugely promising market.
“Looking at a Chinese company as a potential investment, you really have to be a little more cautious and decide whether the investment look

Was He Using Me? How Can 1 Year Mean Nothing?


Hi, Im 19 and my boyfriend of 1 year has just finished with me. We met when he was working in the market near my school. His friend liked me but I liked him. Any way we are both from Muslim families and that means we don’t get to see each other as much as other couples would. My father has a clothes business and often travels to Europe to buy clothes and I go with him so he can keep an eye on me. Which means that I used to see my boyfriend, once maybe twice a month. We don’t see each other in Ramadan either. I’ve bought him bck clothes a couple of times and we would go to his friends apartment to snatch a couple of hours with each other. Im not allowed a phone so I sort of turn up at the market when I’m free. We’ve kept our relationship secret as his friend liked me. Anyway to get to the point we would only have sex when we met each othere and we’ve only gone out for a coffee once. I’m aware he sees other girls but I thought I was the one he would end up with. He knows how I feel about him but he has never told me how he feels about me. The other week we got into a fight and he ended it, I asked how he could just throw a year away and he said it meant nothing. I sent my friends to his house (I have relatives in his area so can’t be seen) and his Mum answered (big shame as she obviously didn’t know about us) and she laughed in there faces. I’ve gone to the market but he ignores me, it turned out his friend knew all along about us and was laughing at my stupidity. But is it possible that a man could just use you like that for a year?? He is 20. I thought he’d be more grown up than that? Was I really nothing for him? I’m hurting so much, he has already moved on to another girl and I just feel like ****. i asked his friend for his number and he just laughed at me.
