Interviews from the Archives
Basketball Legend – Bill Russell
March Madness is in full swing in the United States, which is the time of the year when basketball takes the front stage for sport. As such, we dug way back into our archives and pulled an audio tape of us interviewing basketball legend Bill Russell. Over the years, we have had the honor to interview many iconic celebrities, but this was special since he had been a boyhood hero of mine. We found him to be quick witted and very charming.
Offshore Strategies
Corporate Inversion
Overview
Defined as re-incorporating a company overseas in order to reduce the tax burden on income earned. Corporate inversion as a strategy is used by companies that receive a significant portion of their income from foreign sources, since that income is taxed both abroad and in the country of incorporation. Companies undertaking this strategy are likely to select a country that has lower tax rates and less stringent corporate governance requirements. Below is a quick video on the subject followed by an article from Bloomberg News.
As previously mentioned, we also came across this article in the “Bloomberg” regarding corporate inversion. It’s worth a quick read

International Cuisine & Spirits
International Flavors to Your Front Door!
Honolulu Cookie Company
If you have been to Hawaii in the last 15 years, then you know of the famous Honolulu Cookie Company. Established in 1998, this company as an upstart had the foresight to trademark its pineapple-shape shortbread cookie paving the way for future success. Now with numerous locations – including Seoul, Korea – Honolulu Cookie has become a staple. We most recently ran into one of their stores on the main drag in Waikiki and then again, in Las Vegas. Providing a true taste of Hawaii, these gourmet cookies are a real treat, and their gift baskets might just be that unique item you need to send to a friend.

Crush It!
Crush It!
by Gary Vaynerchuk
You can often see Vaynerchuk appearing on CNN for various technology segments. Many find his antics over the top. Personally, I find him entertaining in small doses. In any case, his book; Crush It is a very useful read for anyone concerned about marketing via social media. Essentially, the book encourages people to determine what they are passionate about and pursue monetizing it via the internet. It argues that sweat equity is all ones needs to build a meaningful brand via the web
