Recently my travels landed me in Kansas City. While there I made a stop at the Kansas City Union Station. The grand opening of Union Station took place in 1914 and was celebrated by thousands. I had never been inside a major train depot like this before and was definitely taken back by its beauty.
Union Station Main Hall Ceiling
Do to major deterioration the building had to be restored in the late ’90s. Fortunately it has been restored to its original appearance and still holds magnificent features not seen in architecture today. One thing that stood out instantly was the ceiling and chandeliers. The chandeliers weigh in at 3,500 pounds and hang 95 feet above the floor.
Other notable features, a clock six feet in diameter, marble floors, detailed stonework in the bathrooms, and the North Waiting Room, able to accommodate 10,000 people. Signs still hang with the time tables for the different railroads and passenger train services, including the name of the trains.
The station today is a great tourist stop, it cost nothing to walk in and see this amazing place. There are shops and restaurants inside the station, as well as several interactive fun things that let you explore the station further. If your ever passing through Kansas City check it out, you will be amazed…
A few days ago I mentioned how I thought Fox News was lame over their tacky response to a coast guard story that turned out to be a drill. While they ran dramatic 9/11 type coverage of it, they quickly ran stories calling out CNN as being irresponsible for publishing the news without confirming the story.
Most recently Fox News has shown their tacky and unprofessional side again by claiming that all other major news agencies did not cover the recent tea parties and indicated they were the only ones that did. This has in many ways been proven false and a bold lie not to mention, a false news report.
This news agency is so blinded by their political motivations they don’t even seem to care about quality news reporting anymore. It seems Fox News is playing out the stupid games of political nonsense in front of the camera. Could these people be any lamer? Just wait… I am sure the answer is coming…
In his latest display of tasteless behavior, Kanye West has won the position as new president for the Narcissistic People Of America. This guys inability to keep his mouth shut and constant attempts to always try to steal the spotlight way makes him a shoe in for this role.
Ok so I made that up, but really this guy, in the words of Obama, is a jackass. And Obama has every right in saying that and it should not be such a big deal in the media that he said it. Kanye is in fact a jackass.
It has been a crazy couple of weeks with a lot of embarrassing behavior from stars, athletes and even politicians. Kanye stunt takes the cake for most narcissistic while the others just seemed like people being big babies.
A few days ago I removed most all of the information on this site in regards to Liberty League International due to the controversial nature of the subject, mainly its religious ties the topic was taking. New developments have arisen within the LLI business scheme and I wanted to make sure it was posted here for anyone that is looking for LLI info.
Recently Liberty League International and now their new name they have morphed to, Polaris Media Group, has been classified as a illegal pyramid scheme by NSW Office of Fair Trading in the Australian state of New South Wales and makes it illegal to promote and participate in the scheme. Check out the attached noticed placed on the WAHM website.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The NSW Office of Fair Trading has advised that Liberty League and the Polaris Media Group has been found to be a pyramid trading scheme and is illegal to participate in or promote in the Australian state of New South Wales. Fair trading has legal advice confirming that the scheme (Liberty League) is a pyramid sales scheme within the meaning of the act. Participants and promoters who are involved in the scheme not only risk losing their money but are also at risk of being prosecuted. All advertisers have been deleted as this is not tolerated on WAHM.
It is nice to see some of the seams finally starting to come unraveled on this questionable opportunity. Keep in mind there is still class action pending on them in the United States also. I would like to call upon some of the web advertising companies that place contextual ads for this opportunity to rethink that choice and stop placing ads for this Questionable opportunity. At any rate, progress is being made in some areas.
My apologies if you came here today looking for information on a subject and its no longer here. I’m sorry for any inconvenience this may cause but the internet is plentiful with the information that you seek. I have chosen to remove content related to certain subjects due to the controversial nature. Please feel free to leave comments or submit any questions or comments to admin@moneyxperiment.com.

I have to many remote controls, but looks like that may soon come to an end. Yamaha’s new neoHD remote will eliminate my need for all these remotes everywhere. Imagine, putting in a dvd and being able to play the movie all from one remote. No need for the TV remote to switch video input, no need for the receiver remote to turn on surround sound. and no going back to the stand alone dvd remote to press play.
Having one remote to control all your components in your home theater and other things around your house beats fumbling for remotes all the time. It great to have one remote control everything, just one, the Yamaha neoHD! Yamaha is giving you guys a chance to win your own neoHD remote, just by Tweeting “I just entered to win a #neoHD b/c I have to many remotes, visit Yamaha neoHD Sweepstakes to enter” or enter via Yamaha neoHD Sweepstakes site.
To many remotes
Take a moment to tell me about your collection of remotes. I included a picture that shows some of the ones I most commonly use, not pictured are all the lost ones that will probably never be seen again, Facebook users can also find neoHD there, check ‘em out.
