Silvio Berlusconi to request community service for tax fraud sentence "Silent and humble manual tasks" are not something to which Silvio Berlusconi has ever felt naturally drawn. Before big business and politics he sold vacuum cleaners and sang on cruise ships. Now, however, thanks to the Italian legal system, a very different kind of activity awaits him.

Today's generation is entirely dependent on credit cards and they even use it for investment purposes.
