Who is the best martial artist right now in the world? Could he beat Bruce Lee?
All of you UFC fans make me laugh. It is amazing that all of you are the same. UFC fighters are not the best in the world. The fighters you see, are competing against their own style. There are so many great practitioners out here in the world who are not famous. God people, all these fighters you watch have masters that teach them. Frank Dux has proven himself of being a world champion by fighting all different styles in Kumite. He has fought masters, and beat every one of them, who would probably destroy all of your top rank UFC champions. Silva is a very good fighter, against grapplers. Would he do good against a Wushu practioners, krav maga masters, salate masters, aikido, shotokan, who the hell knows. Munks, who have trained 8-12 hours a day, everyday since they learned to walk. I highly doubt he could compare or maybe he could. I have trained in Eagle Claw Kung fu, and let me tell you, my sifu's are deadly. Their hands are like steel, their grips are very powerful, they are fast as hell and punch to destroy what ever they hit. What they aim to hit, is not luck. They reach their target by speed, being faster than your duck or block. That is how Bruce trained. To be faster than your opponent. Speed and accuracy. Not luck. There is no best in the world, their is so many great fighters, who can choose. It is about who has had the best training at that time of the fight and the will to win. All styles are great in their own way, and there are so many great and powerful masters. I personly look up to all sensei's and sifu's who are ranked above me. They are all great to me to wear that rank. Nuff said.
Why is the country Gambia officially called, "The Gambia" ?
The country was called "The Gambia" in order to differentiate it from Zambia. Today, there are only two countries in the world with the article "The" in front of the country name. The Gambia and The Bahamas."We do have a letter dated May 1964 from the Gambian prime minister's office which instructed us that it should be The Gambia with a capital T. One of the reasons they gave was that Gambia could be confused with Zambia, which was a new name to the international community at the time."- Becky Maddock of the Permanent Committee on Geographical Names (PCGN), which advises the UK Government on "the proper writing" of place names.
Who earns more between an artist and a footballer (soccer player)?
What kind of artist are we talking about?Well, I consider actors, writers and musicians artists and they are certainly the best paid artists so to speak. So let’s see the top 10 highest paid celebrities of 2017.10 - Lebron James with $83 million (NBA player)9 - James Patterson with $87 million (author)8 - Coldplay with $88 million (music band)7 - Howerd Stern with $90 million (radio host)6 - The Weeknd (musician)5 - Cristiano Ronaldo with $93 million (footballer)4 - Drake with $94 million (musician)3 - J. K. Rowling with $95 million (author)2 - Beyonce with $105 million (musician)1 - Sean Combs with $130 million (musician)As you can see, only two of the top 10 are athletes and only one is a footballer.Now, that does not mean that in average an artist is paid more than a footballer. That is really hard to tell because their are millions of artists all around the world and countless footballers too. But if you want to just consider the top paid footballers, then it is fair to say that they don’t get as much money as the top of musicians, actors. This is only normal, because in the end there are far more people that enjoy music, movies and books than people that enjoy football so in the end an author that has a world best selling book series will get more money than a player. But keep in mind that a successful football player “just” has to play football, that is his job, while an artist has to “create” and constantly adapt and innovate.Also keep in mind this, the 10th best paid football player in 2017 was Paul Pogba and he got $21.2 million, but the 10th best paid author in 2017 only got $11 million. This is just to show you that it is hard to say what class gets paid better without all the information.

Are you going to be rich after joining the Freemasonry?
You would have to pass the fine selection first. They will indoctrinate you and make sure you are true to their teachings and convictions.As a matter of acy, in October this year I have been to an exhibition in the Vienna National Library about Freemasonory and we have been told very interested information from quite experienced guides. Officially they do not have admission criteria BUT there is a curtain procedure. Your photo and basic information is sent to all loggias in the country and even abroad in order to ask members if anyone would know a reason this person not to ne accepted. For instance, a corruption scandal or bad reputation in general. This is as to say the first check.Then you are invited for an interview where you mainly talk about your values and beliefs, and if share those of the community. For instance brotherhood, prosperity, equality etc. This is the second check.As a next step you will be reffered to a mentor who is constantly by your side for about six months in order to teach you the basics of Freemasonry. You should learn also a glossary of specific vocabulary and conceptions of Freemassonry.In case you passed through the process you will be affiliated with a special ritual. There you should stay in a dark room for half an hour in order to consider if you are making the right choice. Then your eyes are bound and you should rip your clothes. Then you proceed to the room full with members of the loggia.The ritual on the picture is for Freeasonary second grades. The ritual of affiliation looks similar though with a man with bounded eyes and ripped cothes. And, of course, there are some specifics as the words to say and the things to do.So back to your question are going to be rich after joining the community. I do think you would be if not rich then quite successful since many of the members are philosophers, scientists and musicians. Those are an example of people who if not rich then at least successful in their field.As a short conclusion of all written above one can say, you may get rich after joining. You should be really into it though.
Do doctors earn more than engineers? Why or why not?
The average doctor earns more than the average engineer; though engineers working as Software Engineers or in the oil industry may earn the same and sometimes more. Also engineering graduates are more likely than any other graduate in terms of their major to become a millionaire. One in ten engineering graduates in the UK and the USA are millionaires say reports posted online. Next in line in the millionaires club are Law, then Finance graduates. The university attended is another factor in relation to becoming a millionaire. There are league tables for that factor as well. Info like that can be found on websites such as www.therichest.com In America how much you will earn as a doctor is also dependent on your speciality. GP's earn as little as $150000 per year on average, while surgeons and consultant anaesthetists earn on average about $350000.There are US websites listing the top 10 highest paid occupations by US state that can be found on Google. Those sites quote doctors salaries by speciality. Drilling engineers are the only nonmanegerial engineering job I know of that pays more than what the average surgeon in America makes. Experienced oil well drilling engineers earn more than $500k per annum. The rub is there are not many of them.
How much do young actors get paid?
Pay scales really don’t follow an age scale. If you are talking about a Screen Actor’s Guild (SAG)/ AFTRA film or TV production, actors are paid according to the contract regardless of age. An established actor, also regardless of age, can be paid above scale meaning more money. So it really isn’t about an actor’s age.All that stated, a new actor, regardless of age, may make only a stipend if they work on a student or independent film.
