SSI Makes its 12th Mission to Israel - Bringing America's First Responders in Direct Contact with Elite Counter-Terrorism Training Experts

Miami, FL (PRWEB) February 10, 2008

SSI has been taking teams of First Responders, security professionals, and law enforcement personnel to Israel for over a decade and remains the only private US Company offering this form of high-demand, frontline security training. The unique program is performed in cooperation with more than 50 agencies and has been funded in part by the US Department of Homeland Security.

Participants in the upcoming mission will receive in-depth training by various security professionals who combat terror threats on a daily basis as well as having the chance to explore the unique cultural and historical landscape of Israel. Some of the mission highlights and topics covered will include:

Public Safety - large scale events, shopping and retail, public transportation
Ports and Airports - tour and learn about some of the world's most complex security arrangements including a visit to Israel's Olympic Village
Critical Infrastructure - tour the Ashdod Power Plant and learn about defenses against Kasam Missiles that are being constantly being fired from Gaza
University and Schools
Government buildings - visit Israel's legislature "The Knesset"
VIP Protection - review lessons learned from the 1995 Rabin Assassination
Suicide Terror - visit sites of past terrorist incidents and speak with public security officials
VBIED's
Personal Protection - active Krav Maga training (an Israeli Martial Art and Close Combat Discipline)

Additionally, participants will experience some of the best dining and accommodations Israel has to offer. Optional tours are available for visiting Israel's Holy sites including a guided tour through Jerusalem's Old City, lunch at the Sea of Galilee and dinner near Mt. Tabor.

SSI CEO Solomon Bradman comments, "We are leading the way, making a difference together with a very dedicated group of First Responders? [who] consider themselves a cadre of people ready to fight the war on terror? all very inspired after seeing what Israel has achieved." He continues, "Because we give them a hands-on experience, and no-one else has the connections to do this? all our visits are really with the heads of security of wherever we are visiting?"

A past mission delegate recalls, "The training we received was very well balanced as to the many facets of security concerns that the police and private security have to deal with on a daily basis. It was invaluable to learn how the military, law enforcement and private security agencies cooperate and work toward a common goal." - Lieutenant Colonel Richard Wheeler, Commander Strategic Planning, Maryland DoT

Millionaire Entrepreneur MJ DeMarco Reveals 5 Unspoken Truths the Mainstream Financial Experts Will Never Admit

Phoenix, AZ (PRWEB) July 28, 2011

They're on the television. Their advice streams from the radio. Their books litter the library shelves. The mainstream financial experts claim they have the formula for wealth. Seemingly sage advice, it sounds like this: Go to school, get a good job, live frugal, max-out the 401(k), faithfully invest 10% of your paycheck in the stock market for 40 years, and one day, a rich retirement will be waiting.

While this practical advice has been dispensed for years and rarely goes challenged, MJ DeMarco, multimillionaire entrepreneur and author of the #1 best-selling book, The Millionaire Fastlane claims that this financial strategy hides 5 unspoken truths that those financial gurus will never admit. They are:

Unspoken Truth #1

-------------------------

"The strategies that we teach, are not the strategies that made us rich."

Is that financial expert a millionaire because he stopped drinking expensive coffee and canceled the movie channels? Or is it because he sold millions of books and manages nearly $ 500 million in assets? Most financial gurus are worldwide brands which serve as a marketing funnel for an endless array of "upsells" -- expensive seminars, CD sets, website memberships, life insurance policies, games, and other financial products. While the financial experts are preaching jobs, frugality, and saving, behind the scenes they are moving millions of dollars in products and services. DeMarco claims to be the first author who does the unthinkable author sacrilege: he wrote a book for the sake of exposing the truth, not to upsell his readers into some "backend" sales funnel.

Unspoken Truth #2

-------------------------

"Without a job, our plan doesn't work."

Unemployment or underemployment throws a wrench in the old "get a job and save" advice. The gurus preach saving and living below your means which by all measures, is practical advice. But what happens if when there are no means, no job, or no job prospects? The reality is, the moment a job loss happens is the moment people lose control over their financial plan. To succeed under the guru's plan, savers need to remain employed for 30, 40, perhaps 50 years so enough savings can accumulate to retire. DeMarco asks "How many people can't save money simply because they are unemployed, or underemployed?" Much like the financial experts, DeMarco contends that the wealthy control their income sources through leveraged entrepreneurship, not by trading their time for money in a job.

Unspoken Truth #3

-------------------------

"If a weak economy and a poor stock market doesn't yield 8% for 50 years, our plan doesn't work."

The financial gurus' grand deity is compound interest. It's been repeated countless times: Save a $ 100 a month and after 50 years, it will be worth $ 700,000! Again, the financial gurus don't admit that this strategy is premised on hope--hope the stock market yields 8% year after year, decade after decade. The economic collapse has erased trillions of dollars in net worth for middle-America. Many have to start over. Others, have to go back to work. DeMarco says that the economic slow-down has exposed the risk inherent in the plan and finally people are now questioning long-held financial beliefs. "The recession has exposed a frightening reality for many Americans: A financial plan that relies on a job market and a stock market relies on hope."

Unspoken Truth #4

-------------------------

"Most people won't survive to see retirement."

The average life expectancy is about 77 years old. Many won't make it to the age of retirement. Those who do survive will suffer from old age -- retirement won't harbor such wild adventures like climbing Machu Picchu, skiing the black slopes, or running the bulls in Spain. And yet, millions of people subscribe to the "deferred enjoyment" plan where youthful freedom is sacrificed for elderly freedom. Retirement should be a time of fun and leisure and yet, many never enjoy it simply because the plan takes decades to work. DeMarco, who retired in his 30s, says people need to do an exorcism on their financial plan and remove hope and time as the lynchpin and replace it with control and leverage -- doing so makes retirement at any age possible.

Unspoken Truth #5

-------------------------

"After 40 years, any accumulated savings will be virtually worthless in today's dollars."

Inflation is a ravenous termite that destroys the purchasing power of a saved dollar. At 3.5% inflation, a million dollars 40 years from now won't even be worth $ 250K in today's dollars. That gallon of milk will cost $ 22. That gas fill-up will run $ 350 bucks. At the rate the world's governments are printing money, a savings plan that takes 40 years to accumulate seems to be another gamble of hope. Survive the 40 years of jobs and prudent saving and suddenly those millions aren't worth much. If that happens, many will be forced to retire beneath their normal standard of living, or worse, they can't retire at all.

While being debt-free, saving, and frugality, are well-intentioned financial strategies, the fundamental problem is that they are post-requisite to uncontrollable factors. People can't control losing their job. People can't control the economy or the stock market. People can't control mortality. Without control, the quest for financial freedom often stalls behind the wake of failed financial gambles predicated on hope and time: declining economies, worsening job markets, and unpredictable market yields. Financial struggles becomes blameless, even for those considered prudent, educated, and hard-working.

DeMarco advises "In today's economic environment, the best way to achieve financial freedom is to control and leverage the cornerstones for financial success, and those economies frequently occur via need-based entrepreneurship -- the same model that most financial gurus practice, but fail to preach."

MJ DeMarco is the former CEO and Founder of Limos.com (1997-2007), semi-retired entrepreneur, and author of the best-selling book, The Millionaire Fastlane (Viperion Publishing, 2011, http://www.amazon.com/dp/0984358102). He currently lives in beautiful Phoenix Arizona and spends his free time traveling, writing, and promoting entrepreneurship.

More Krav Maga Press Releases

Learn KRAV MAGA (The Official Hand-to-Hand Combat Skill of the Israel Defense Forces) from the Experts - Security Solutions International SSI

Miami, FL (PRWEB) December 19, 2008

SSI now offers men and women the chance to learn the brutally effective Israeli martial art, KRAV MAGA (contact combat) in Israel with touring and training combined. Participants will visit Tel Aviv, Haifa, and the Old City of Jerusalem as well as see the Dead Sea and Massada during the 8-day program.

Despite the fact that SSI has trained the more than 700 government agencies in homeland security, this program is open to the public and may be attended by anyone with high motivation to learn self-defense. There is no need for previous experience in any other martial art.

Krav Maga has been widely popularized in recent years but the real masters are, of course, in Israel where Krav is taught to all men and women in the Israel Defense Forces. The system uses mental preparation and the natural movements of the body to create one of the most devastating methods for self-defense. Designed for both men and women, Krav is very effective for women. Indeed, Krav teaches the ability to deal with threatening situations: attack from behind; multiple attackers; knife and gun attacks so that men and women train and fight together.

SSI has trained more than 300 professional homeland security professionals in Israel. The very same trainers in KRAV MAGA will undertake training everyone from a complete novice to a KRAV MAGA trainer. SSI's experience means that participants will have an armed, personal protection specialist on every excursion and will get the best hospitality Israel has to offer, as well as the best KRAV MAGA training. The cost of the program includes absolutely everything from Newark to Israel and back. The group will depart on June 12th and return on June 22nd, 2009.

Sign up now, participation is strictly limited. For further information please contact: Henry Morgenstern at 786-573-3999.

Are You a Potential Victim of Lawfare?

SSI's non-profit organization, "Protecting the Homeland", is our newest initiative in championing democratic processes. In the dynamic arena for counteracting Islamic extremism masked under the exploitation of civil liberties, many have fallen victim to Lawfare--the formula is predictable. So-called anti-terrorist organizations, aligned with Islamic extremism, blatantly abuse the laws, freedoms and loopholes of the most liberal nation on earth to help finance and direct the world's most violent international terrorism cells.

The "Protecting the Homeland" organization charter embodies two main objectives: ceaseless dedication in counter-acting Islamic radicals who repeatedly attempt to threaten our constitutional freedoms, and channeling funds to educate US First Responders through sponsorship of training programs in the USA and Israel.
