December 2007

Tracy's start-up company sponsored and funded the Inaugural Peace and Sport Forum which took place from December 5th-7th in Monaco.

Sport goes far beyond religious, philosophic, social and ethnical differences and facilitates understanding, mutual respect and the relationships between people.

If you want to share the wealth, to whom should you give and how do you ensure your gift really helps the cause you want it to? Should you invest in stocks or bonds or just go for a high-interest savings instrument? And what about, er, pre-nups and mid-nups?" Click here for photos and the rest of the story.
