  • Time Is Money: Young Man Builds $100K Portfolio Using Two Incredibly Simple Strategies

    Ramit Sethi is the author of 'I Will Teach You To Be Rich,' and its associated courses and seminars. His material is wildly popular, and provides many techniques for building wealth. Some focus on entrepreneurship, and others focus on investment. One reader, Sunny Shah, built his own savings and investment portfolio by using just two techniques Sethi suggests. According to Business Insider, he first used the pay-yourself-first strategy to prioritize saving. Shah scheduled his deposits to his savings and investment accounts even before payments for household bills or discretionary spending. And he used a dollar-cost averaging strategy to save for retirement and other long-term goals, investing the same amount each month automatically. Now just 25 years old, Shah's savings and investment portfolio has surpassed the $100,000 mark!

  • BMW Group builds BMW iNEXT prototypes

    On the occasion of the BMW iNEXT prototype production, the BMW Group is offering an exclusive glimpse behind the scenes of its Pilot Plant in the heart of the Research & Innovation Centre (FIZ).

They are used for testing and to prepare for series assembly later. Experts from development and production work in close collaboration. When series manufacturing of the fully electric BMW iNEXT is launched in 2021, it will run on the same assembly line as combustion-powered vehicles and plug-in hybrids.Udo Hänle, head of Production Integration and Pilot Plant: “Preparing a fully electric vehicle for series production is an exciting but challenging task. By the time of the official start of production, we will have built as many as 100 prototypes of the BMW iNEXT. Until then, the Pilot Plant will use a range of new innovations to streamline and speed up our processes even further. We are also already preparing our first production associates from Plant Dingolfing to work on the new product.”

  • Aprilia Racing 2018

    Aprilia's proudly all-Italian challenge in the MotoGP World Championship begins from a base that is more solid than ever. In fact, the work done by the Noale Racing Department during the 2017 season came together in the consistent growth of the young RS-GP project which, once again characterised by the Italian livery designed by Aldo Drudi, has been revamped and advanced in every area for the 2018 season. The final part of the season was a turning point for Aprilia. The sixth place earned by Aleix Espargaró at Aragón with a gap of less than six seconds behind the winner, followed immediately by excellent performance in Japan (fourth in qualifying) and Australia (best time at the end of the first day of practice) highlighted clear progress, then halted by the unfortunate injury Espargaró suffered as he was battling in the lead group during the Phillip Island GP. For the 2018 season, Aprilia is keen to pick up from there, from a bike that maintains the same construction philosophy as its forerunner, but refined and advanced in every aspect and with an extremely motivated pair of riders, fully aware that they have everything they need to aim consistently for the top spots in the rankings. Alongside Aleix Espargaró will be Scott Redding. The English rider, born in 1993, is coming into his fifth MotoGP season, the first on a factory team.
