I earlier had posted a question about my CPA charging me $450 to do my taxes. Price was not discussed beforehand because a third party was paying for it in the past, so it was not a concern of mine. This past year I got the bill for $450 from the CPA stating that I have to pay it this year because the 3rd party won't. I emailed him back saying $450 was way too much for a single w2 filer, and I offered him $200. He says the $450 stands because he did 5.5 hours of work, and that he "knows more lawyers than I do people". Do you think he would actually take me to court for this amount? If he does, would I wind up spending more defending myself in court? What should I do here? I feel like I'm getting totally ripped off!! Just to add to this, I never signed anything up front saying that I agreed to this price. Some of you are saying just pay him and chalk it up to experience, but does he really have a case if I didn't sign anything agreeing to the price?

I do not have health insurance available at my place of employment and have to pay $470 per month for a high deductible, bare-bones policy.
I am a 48-year-old female living with depression, Sjogren's Syndrome, fibromyalgia, and restless leg syndrome - all of which are under control with meds. I am active and otherwise quite healthy, and feel 1,000% better than I did when diagnosed a few years ago. (btw, I have tried to get off the depression med, but always crash)
If I knew which of these are responsible for my insurance woes, perhaps my doc could tell the insurance company that I'm "cured" or something......

in college, to survive, i racked up $15,000 on credit cards form 7 different credit card companies. i then graduated and have a job, but i am way over my head in bills. i'm never late on my school loans, rent, or car payments. so they arent the problem. the problem is i missed a payment here and there on my credit cards and now every company wants me to pay atleast $100.00 right away. there is no way i can afford that. i could barely even afford the normal payments. i got letters telling me they are going to transfer my accounts to a collection agencies. what happens then? and what are my options? i'm very worried.

My bank account has been negative for almost a month now. I bounced a bunch of stuff, and the bank charged me $32 each time. I have payments come out automatically each time I get paid, and it always pushes me back under. Then the bank charges again. I can't take it, I've been charged over $1000 on these fees in the past month. I'm not sure if the bank would reduce the fees, probably not since it's policy. I need to figure out how to get some money before my next payday, because I have a car insurance payment going out Monday and my account is already negative. My parents won't even help (and no, I've never asked for money before).

WHAT I MEAN IS A STATE THAT DOESNT HAVE ANY ONE JUST HANGING OUT AND NOT DOING NOTHING FOR THEMSELVES THATS EITHER WORKING OR GOING TO SCHOOL. ANOTHER WORDS A STATE THAT HAS JOB OPPORTUNITIES FOR EVERYONE REGARDLESS OF BACKGROUND OR PAST HISTORY. A STATE THAT HAS COST OF LIVING THATS INEXPENSIVE BUT YET WHEN YOU GO TO THE SUPERMARKET THAT YOU WONT HAVE TO SPEND MORE THAN $100.00 DOLLARS TO BUY A DECENT AMOUNT OF FOOD. A PLACE THAT HAS INDEPENDENT WOMEN AND A STATE THAT IS CLEAN AND PRICES ARE CHEAPER THAN NEW YORK CITY.
