Mesothelioma and Compensation -- Who is Responsible?

Compensation is the greatest factor that drives people; it is considered as the greatest motivator of all things. Yet, compensation instigates more than plain monetary satisfaction. Above all things, it can give back whatever was lost.


Such is the case with mesothelioma and compensation. People who have acquired mesothelioma deem it necessary to receive the proper compensation they deserve. Why? Simply because it is not their intention to get sick with mesothelioma.

Overview of Mesothelioma and Compensation

Statistics show that nearly 80% of people afflicted with mesothelioma were working in the industrial field and construction area. Although mesothelioma is not a single disease with a single cause, the greatest common factor in developing the disease is asbestos.

Hence, society deems it necessary for these industries or employers, in general, to be responsible in providing the right compensation to their employees.

Issues on mesothelioma and compensation focus more on the privileges endowed to employees who have been sick with mesothelioma after being exposed to asbestos at work. The underlying connection between mesothelioma and compensation is seen in the lawsuits filed against the employers. Generally, these legal actions are done to claim financial damages from the company, who is entirely accountable for the safety of their employees working environment and for the implementation of safety gear against such hazards as asbestos.

Compensation for mesothelioma cases usually covers medical bills and other expenses related to mesothelioma, such as loss for daily wages or inability to provide their family with the quality life due to their non-working status.

People who are generally entitled for mesothelioma compensation are those who worked in the building, custodial, construction, shipyard, and automotive industry.

More information about mesothelioma and compensation:

1. It must be a cancer

Not everyone who had been exposed to asbestos can immediately file for mesothelioma compensation. The number one factor to consider for such claims is the development of cancer. The gravity of asbestos exposure will determine the condition that states one's eligibility for mesothelioma compensation.

2. Find a good lawyer

Not all mesothelioma lawyers can help you in claiming your compensation. Moreover, most mesothelioma lawyers that render services for mesothelioma compensation charge high fees. Hence, not everybody can afford to hire a mesothelioma lawyer.However, some lawyers are willing to provide a "no win, no pay" agreement. By the time they win the case, the lawyer shares a certain percentage on the compensation. Hence, it is best that you find a good lawyer for you to obtain the right claims for you.

3. State laws

Mesothelioma compensation may vary from one state to another. This means that the existing state laws regarding mesothelioma lawsuits will be applicable only within its jurisdiction. Hence, not all provisions stated in a certain mesothelioma compensation are applicable on the other mesothelioma cases in different states.

Indeed, mesothelioma compensation can be very helpful in answering financial problems caused by mesothelioma. Reports show that mesothelioma patients can claim as much as $3 million. So if you have been diagnosed with mesothelioma, file your mesothelioma compensation now.

What is mesothelioma?

Mesothelioma is a cancer of the mesothelium. The mesothelium is a thin membrane that lines the chest and abdomen and surrounds the organs in these areas. The lining around the lungs is called the pleura and in the abdomen it is known as the peritoneum.

About 2000 people in the UK are diagnosed with mesothelioma each year.Mesothelioma of the lining of the lungs, known as pleural mesothelioma, is much more common than mesothelioma in the peritoneum. For every one person with peritoneal mesothelioma, there will be about 12 people who have pleural mesothelioma.

Pleural mesothelioma

The pleura has two layers: the inner (visceral) layer, which is next to the lung; and the outer (parietal) layer, which lines the chest wall. The two layers of the pleura are usually in contact and slide over each other as we breathe. The membranes produce fluid, which allows them to slide over each other easily.

When mesothelioma develops in the pleura (pleural mesothelioma), the delicate membranes thicken and may press inwards on the lung. Fluid may also collect between the two layers of the pleura: this is known as a pleural effusion.

Peritoneal mesothelioma

The lining of the abdomen is known as the peritoneum. It also has two layers: the inner (visceral) layer, which is next to the abdominal organs, and the outer (parietal) layer, which lines the abdominal wall.

If the mesothelioma is in the peritoneum it is called peritoneal mesothelioma and causes thickening of the membranes surrounding the abdominal organs and a collection of fluid in the abdomen. The collection of fluid is called ascites and causes swelling of the abdomen.

Becareful About Using Your Credit Card!

This will be a really different post from my normal marketing message.

I felt that it's my responsibility to share with my fellow friends (you) about this. True Story. Happen to named it Y to protect him(My mentor in success university).... Here it goes:


I never expected this to happen to me, not in a decade! But it did and it's happening all over the world. This would be a shocker to you probably that an affiliate marketer like me would be hit with this tragedy as well *sigh*.

Anyway, I received my credit card statement somewhere at the end of May and didn't actually take a peek at it. My wife was telling me "Hey! You gotta look at this statement...". I was so tired that night I didn't actually bother to check it and I was sure that it's just a normal statement that "blah, blah" stuff, whatever. Baaaaad move......

You see, I don't spend that much money. Just basically online stuff.

Went to bed that night thinking that I should just take a look the next morning.

I was glad I did.

A shocker of about S$4000 (US$2700) was made on my credit card on the same day!

Honest To The Heavens, I never ever spent that much in a day. Not even when I was in France having my 2 weeks trip. Heck no. So, what did I do?

Yeah, you bet I called up the credit card company and they even told me "are you sure you didn't make that transaction?", "you mean you don't remember making that purchase?", "you want me to check and verify a transaction that you made for you?".

*frustrating* *frustrating* *frustrating*...

Did you ever get that feeling that your conviction of the truth was so strong you could swear by a lightning? That's the moment right there. For this post sake, I will not mention the credit card company here and just let this serve as an educational note. Okay, let's carry on.

Here's what I did in about 5 steps when I discovered a fraud transaction on my credit card:

1. Contact The Lost/Stolen Card Call Centre and report it. Block it or something.
2. No matter what, make a police report and as for a 'dispute form'
3. Attach the reply of the 'dispute form' with a copy of your statement & police report.
4. Send it immediately.
5. Wait a few days for confirmation of the credit card company, if not call them again.

I never went past step 5 because it all went pretty smooth for me. However, the investigation would take about 90 days to see if it's valid or not. So, I'll keep you updated about the result. It's been something like a month plus already.

Here's the thing, it's an online transaction. How did I know that wasn't my transaction? easy. It's for payment on a phone bill. I never paid my phone bill online and definitely not with my credit card - ever. Plus, my entire lives phone bill was never over $300 a month. You do the math, a total of S$4000 in a single month? No way, hosay.

Alright, situation is simmered down for now because they already got my dispute form and my credit is temporary restored back to normal. Hope for the best, hope for me. Okay, no flaming needed here. This happened all a month ago.

By the way, I'd like to leave a resource for you from Visa International on protecting your credit card from fraud. Check it when you're available. Who knows, anything can happen, right?

Are You Buying Everything Online!?

I knew that this would be another gracious week as I am so enjoying the time at home spent with my lovely gf last weekend. Also, It's been sometime since I lasted posted. However, there were projects that I had to focus on and kept me from posting.



Part of the reason was that I had wanted to change the total outlook of my blog but some screwy firewall issue on my laptop keeps me away from this like a repellant! You're going to learn something different this week because it is something that I also recently discovered.



It's not new but it will benefit you I'm sure.




As per the fridge you see above? What do you notice?


It is small yes. Don't ask where this picture was taken.


Notice how the items inside are just nicely arrange to fit into the fridge? Heck, I made a trip to the grocery store just to get the necessary items I need for the day. It lasted me about 2 days and then I had to refill again.



I'm quite a pig when it comes to food but I also exercise well, mind you ;)


The point I'm trying to make is that if you really want to buy anything online, even if it's a measly $17 item - just make sure it is something you really need. Ensure that it contributes to your bottom line which is simply to earn profits. At least it would be something that you would even be willing to work on once you have it.


I made this sin for more almost half a year when I first started. Buying everything from tools, e-books and what not. Trust me, been there done that.


Also, notice I only buy what I needed to last me during a certain time frame. Don't just go and get it hoping you will use it the next 3 months or so. It has to be a tool or information that you would need right now. Today.There really isn't much for me to shout about except the fact that when I did this, it brought me closer to my goals and I began to see massive results such as a huge flow of traffic. Perhaps not on this blog because it looks kinda dated, but on my other websites.


Be aware of what you want before someone tries to push you the latest e-book and hype out there. It's a jungle and you got lots to choose from. Don't make the wrong choices.

Otherwise, just learn from your mistakes and never repeat them again.
