...independent sales representatives to achieve more sales, faster, and at a lower cost than other recruiting methods. According to Simon (2010), in today's economy with the rising costs of employee benefits and increasing pressure from international competition, U.S. manufacturers are looking for every advantage they can get. Collegiate Promotions is able to save a tremendous amount of money by alleviating the expenses of employee benefits, compensation and all of the overhead costs associated with recruiting employees.

The doubling of those in the over-65 age bracket, coupled with the results of this study, will undoubtedly put a massive strain on the nation’s healthcare system. Special Needs for Baby Boomers In order to gain insight on the needs of the baby boomers, a BSN prepared nurse who cares for this population was interviewed. This nurse earned her degree from Seton Hall and is currently matriculating towards her Master of Science Nursing degree. She works full time at a major medical center and works part time for a home health agency. During her home health visits, the predominant age group requiring care is the over-65 population.

Sawyer’s states, “We can define a bank as n institution whose debts (bank deposits) are widely accepted in settlement of other peoples debts to each other”. The class of financial institutions called commercial banks has one important characteristic that distinguishes it from all other kinds of financial institutions. This important distinction is that t alone can hold deposits to be drawn upon by check’ it has the power to create and destroy money, within limits, through the use of loans and demand deposits. Commercial banks lend money by creating demand deposits and retire loans by canceling demand deposits. The functions of modern commercial banks are numerous and overlap with those of such other financial institutions. They are most sharply differentiated form other financial institutions by the character of their principal liabilities. Only commercial banks hold demand deposits, which constitute the most important component of money supply, thus banks are unique among non governmental institutions as administrators of demand deposits and as money issuers.
