Lisbon, Apr 1 (EFE), (Camera: EFE).- Water scarcity, sport fishing, reservoirs... These are only some of the factors that threaten 60% of the native fish species in the rivers of Portugal, a recently published guide warns. The first guide for freshwater fish and migrants from mainland Portugal claims the importance of prevention to avoid the extinction of these species. SOUNDBITES OF FELIPE RIBEIRO, CO-AUTHOR OF THE GUIDE, RESEARCHER AT THE UNIVERSITY OF LISBON AND MEMBER OF THE EUROPEAN PROJECT LIFE INVASAQUA: 1.- "The are several causes that led to the extinction of fish, mainly the loss of habitat due to the construction of reservoirs and river channelling. The second cause is invasive alien species, which are predators, they have led to the extinction of some of these native species, or they are also species that are great competitors for food resources." 2.- "Then there are other threats that are increasingly common in the Iberian context that have to do with the overexploitation of water and water resources. Rivers are transboundary, animals and plants know no borders and any action taken in Spain it must also be accompanied in Portugal. It is important to see here a joint and coordinated action between the two countries because otherwise, we will be spending resources ineffectively." 3.- "What I think is most important as a society is to realize that we have many fishes and much of the fauna and flora that live in the rivers of Portugal and Spain is endemic. And that is our only responsibility, of the Iberian villages, to preserve them for future generations. They are fish or animals, from millions of years ago, which are endemic. It is our responsibility to preserve them for future generations."
Especially in uncertain times like these, the dream of owning one's home free and clear is an enticing one. On the other hand, isn't saving for retirement, or college funds more important? According to Business Insider, if you have the opportunity to pay off your mortgage early, the deciding factor comes down to just one thing: interest rates. If the rate on your mortgage is higher than the rate you'd earn by investing cash in the stock market, pay down the debt first. But before you do that, run the numbers to see if refinancing your mortgage would make sense. If so, you can apply the freed-up cash towards your high-interest debt. Once that's cleared up, pay off the mortgage!
Achieving financial independence means building enough wealth that you don't ever have to work again. Whee! Of course, getting to financial independence, or FI, requires resilience and perseverance. However, there's more to escaping the rat race than that. According to Business Insider, author Sarah Stanley Fallaw says most millionaires follow a similar path. And she bases her conclusions not on hunches, but on her interviews with over 600 millionaires from all walks of life. They share three traits: spending below their means, finding a side hustle, and moving to self-employment. Ultimately, the three factors work together to allow them to build wealth more quickly and reach financial independence sooner than most.
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!
