is 26 years old too old to produce music?

is 26 years old too old to produce music?
i've just turned 26 yrs old this August, and suddenly i've just felt like a tremendous pressure upon my chest. for one, i'm one of those type of people who's very 'young' at heart, and also, many people said that i'm really talented in music. i have even formed a band last year, and it's still going. and i'm currently learning electronic music production too. Japan's pop sounds have been my main influences , and i'm so dying to hope to travel there, at least stay a bit there, and see what will it take! but unfortunately, i'm kinda born in a very strict chinese-family, where at 26-yrs old, parents already pressure me in stuff like big money-making careers (ie: engineering, plantation, etc), and marriage. and i just don't like them (at least for now), i don't want to grow 'old' quickly, like some of my friends already did.. but yea, life-circumstances is really making me hard to pursue my REAL interests (and my daytime job is also NOT music-related! it sucks). so yea, back to question: do u guys think 26 yrs old is already too-old to produce music, & start music career? I'm an chinese-indonesian living in indonesia, btw.

How can I manually charge someone's credit card remotely?

How can I manually charge someone's credit card remotely?
I reside in the U.S. and I have a potential costumer in Indonesia, who said " the only way i want you charge my card into manual swipe charge machine for safety reason.I can't make check or money order cause I spent my cash money for build my new store. If you don't have charge machine maybe you can find at your family, friends or the other." What is a swipe charge machine, where can I find one, and how can I use it? Is there another way it can be done? Thank you for your time. Can I somehow wire his money into my account?

you believe him? The safety reason is he doesn't have the three digit number on the back of the card and that is why you can't call it in. If you manually swipe it, how you going to get him to sign it !!!?????
2 :
Well...what he is talking about is a physical credit card imprinter...it's what was used way back in the dark ages...around 1985 or so...basically you put the credit card in a holder, then you pull a slide across the card, then on the return swipe, it imprints the merchant info... BUT...this sounds mighty fishy...first of all even assuming you can find an imprinter...you would need to have his card in hand...so unless you are going to Indonesia or he is coming to you...I'd be real skeptical of this potential transaction...many scammers overseas...personally, my guess is he only has a credit card number, but not the coresponding security code from the back of a real card...but then again...I'm paranoid about money and oversea transactions. (but the I'm all out of cash....kinda trips my oooohhhohhhh meter)
3 :
Check with your credit card company. In the old days prior to swiping, you made an imprint of the card and sent the carbon into the bank (or maybe it was the original). I do know that I call into my doctor's, dentists, or other providers to charge their bills on my account. In addition to my card number they either need my expiration date or the security number on the back of my card. None of them require swiping the card. In this case you cannot swipe a card that is in another location. If you need to ask about a swipe machine, then it appears that you don't use credit cards for payment from buyers.
4 :
A swipe charge machine is the thing that they have at stores where a customer (or an employee) slides the card through the machine and it scans the magnetic stripe to determine the card number. Most of them (although not the ones that are built into gas pumps) will also allow someone to manually enter the card number on a keypad, but you should not do this with a card number from another country, because it might be stolen.
5 :
There seems something strange about this. The ONLY way they will pay you is if you use a swipe charge machine. These are basically a Point-of-Sale device, that are either built into a cash register, or as a separate device connected to it. So does this person want to mail their card to you to charge it and then you mail it back to them? Some of these devices you can manually enter in a card. If this is what they are trying to get you to do you can be almost certain it is a stolen number. Even without knowing all of the information, this seems to have SCAM written all over it. You need to really know who you are dealing with, especially if these people are in a different country. If for some reason you took their charge, and it turns out to be fradulent it is going to be next to impossible to get your money back.

How terrible is greed and delusion? How to protect human and world?

How terrible is greed and delusion? How to protect human and world?
1 old racial problem politician or evil move I observe. He can't even keep himself rest but every now and than yak and yak! Every now and than or can not stop to create racial issue or try to mislead other view him as race hero with his nonsense words:- That is his race will be left behind as they are incompetence ! With people from other part of country, his race can not do any more! Hey! this is not true! never! Once upon the time many foreign came open factory in our country, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand and etc, this actually gave the local people to learn skill and knowledge from them and make our people widen the scope of learning and create more multi skill intelligence. Well! not everybody is born in the world same. They have different talent and what they wish to do for the world for his whole life. To be a good human leader, nation leader or world good being or 'insan' in Bahasa Malaysia. You should think how to create chance for the people to learn and all kind of fields that the people can act and do their best for their life happily. They may not be engineer, doctor, lawyer, lecturer or teachers, they can be good actor, dancer, business man, contractor, technician, waiter, diomond designer or best designer for all product making . ... or may be they become the best designer of shoes that can sale to the whole and make tons of money for the country. Make all human enjoy wearing his shoes happily everyday. Well! if this is what he like to do for his life, this will make him live with great happiness. ...stop planting you old and orthodox thoughts in haman to create al kinds of nonsense. I think if you are not thinking to make people happy than basically you are in terrible, greed and delusion people. This terrible greed and delusion in you will bring hatred, evil energy and problem in this world. I think greed and delusion can destroy you. human kind, country and world, what you think? But, what happen we have many people like this in our neighbourhoon, country and in this world. How are we protect our world?
