#4 Sean Quinn
Formerly the richest man in all of Ireland, Sean Quinn managed the rare feat of going from a
net worth of $6.5 billion to being nearly $4 billion in debt, almost overnight. In an
unfortunately poorly timed move, Mr. Quinn invested 25% of his familys entire wealth in an
Irish bank, just before the 2008 Financial Crisis. This wouldnt have been so bad if he didnt
leverage his familys insurance company to make the investment, resulting in both companies,
and his entire empire collapsing in billions of debt.

#3 Allen Stanford
You could say that Allen Stanfords fall from grace was rather abrupt. Where most people just
lose their fortune, Mr. Stanford is currently behind bars in a Federal penitentiary serving a 110
year sentence for defrauding investors out of more than $7 billion! The gig was up when the
company eventually went belly-up and investigators determined he spent the bulk of the money
on his over the top lavish lifestyle, with mansions, penthouses, and private jets. In addition to
the lengthy prison term, he was also ordered to pay a fine amounting to nearly $13 billion!
#2 Jordan Belfort
The man portrayed in the 2013 smash hit movie the Wolf of Wall Street by Leonardo
DiCaprio, Jordan Belfort earned more money in a year than 99% of people will ever see in
their entire lives, seeing an amazing annual income of over $250 million in his early 20s.
Compared to Allen Stanfords 110 year prison sentence, Mr. Belfort got off easy with only a 2
year prison term, and a forfeiture of every single dollar, and piece of property he had in his
name. Hes still hundreds of millions of dollars in debt as a result of a court decision, but is
slowing trying to repay that by doing inspirational speaking tours.
#1 MC Hammer
MC Hammer has had the hammer come down on him in judgements against him several times
now, after earning hundreds of millions in his career. Unfortunately he managed to spend it all
even faster. When you grow up with less than nothing, quickly earn $33 million from a hit
album in the 1990s while youre still in your early 20s, blow your fortune on not one, but
TWO private helicopters for you and your posse, its not surprising that you can spend that
fortune so fast! Though that was all nearly 30 years ago, Hammer seems to still not have hired
an accountant to manage his money as in 2011 it was reported he owed nearly $800,000 in
back taxes to the IRS.
Understanding Autism
Tips for helping children with ASD
Handle-Autism-Children
It is vital to seek professional advice about suitable treatment strategies for people with ASD.
The age of the person, and the severity of their difficulties are both important factors to
consider when deciding on what treatment to give for people with ASD. Listed below are a list
of strategies that can be put in place to assist parents and other careers of people with ASD.
When your child has autism: Tips for parents & care takers
Gain knowledge about autism. The more you know about ASD, the better equipped youll be to
make well-versed decisions for your child. Educate yourself about the treatment options, ask
questions, and participate in all treatment decisions.
Be an expert on your child. Figure out what triggers your kids bad or troublesome behaviors
and what elicits a positive response. What does your autistic child find stressful? Calming?
Uncomfortable? Or Enjoyable? If you understand what affects your child, youll be better at
troubleshooting problems and preventing situations that cause difficulties.
Accept your child, habits and all. Rather than focusing on how your child is different from
other children and what he or she is missing, practice acceptance. Enjoy your kids special
habits, celebrate small successes, and stop comparing your child to others. Feeling
unconditionally loved and accepted will assist your child more than anything else.
Do not give up. Its impossible to predict the course of an ASD Dont jump to conclusions
about what life is going to be like for your child. Like everyone else, people with autism have
an entire lifetime to grow and develop their abilities.
and adults with ASD can become very upset if their routine is changed. The below ideas will
help them cope with change easily:
Provide a reasonable level of daily structure through the use of a daily or weekly diary and
prepare the person for any changes to their routine.
When a change is going to happen, spend time prior to the event talking to the child or adult
about what is going to happen and ensure that they have support to manage any anxiety.
Develop a standard routine for the day including set times for meals, activities and sleep.
2.Visual supports
metaphor. If an appropriate response is not given it is helpful to check that the person has
understood.
Look for nonverbal cues. If you are watchful and aware, you can learn to pick up on the
nonverbal cues that children with autism use to communicate. Pay attention to the kinds of
sounds they make, their facial expressions, and the gestures they use when theyre tired,
hungry, or want something.
9.Relaxation techniques
Someone with ASD can find it very difficult to relax. Some people with autism have a
particular interest or activity they like to do because it helps them relax. If they use these to
relax, it may help to build them into their daily routine. However, this interest or activity can
itself be the source of behavioral difficulties at times, especially if theyre unable to follow
their interest or do the activity at a particular time.
Activities that are pleasant and calming, for example taking a bath, listening to relaxing music,
aromatherapy, playing on a computer may also help reduce anxiety.
Some people may find lights particularly calming, especially those of a repetitive nature, such
as spiraling lights or bubble tubes.
Some people may need to be left alone for short periods of the day to help them unwind.
Physical activity can also often help to manage anxiety and release tension. Using deep
breathing exercises to relax and calm down can be helpful as can activities such as yoga and
Pilates, which both focus on breathing to relax.
Use a visual or chart timetable or write a list to help remind the person when they need to
practice relaxation.
