China announced its largest trade deficit in more than two decades.
China has long been an export powerhouse, selling far more goods to foreigners than it buys in the world marketplace. The world's second largest economy imported in February, $31.5 billion more goods and services than it exported, the General Administration of Customs China reported.
February's data marked the country's largest monthly trade deficit in 22 years.

How to make more money!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How to make more money!
- Invest your time. For example, you might like having free time, so you give yourself a day of doing nothing. But if you were to invest those free hours into getting money, you could work towards having 20 years of free time with early retirement. What can you give up now in exchange for being rich later?
- Change jobs and employer. By changing your environment, you can increase your pay, experience different corporate cultures and reduce risk. Do this many times. If you're a valued employee, it's also likely your current company may offer you a raise or other benefits if they know you're looking at leaving.
- Choose the right profession. Look at research survey salaries which indicate average annual incomes for specific professions. Your odds of getting rich are way less if your pursue a career in teaching than a career in finance.
- Invest your money in education. Go to universities and obtain degrees that are considered in your chosen profession. You sometimes have to spend money to make money.
- Avoid purchases whose value is guaranteed to decline. Spending thousand on a car is usually considered a waste because it's a guarantee that it won't be worth that much in 5 years, regardless of how much work you put into it.
