Lets say conservatively, the person gets a $2 cup of coffee before work and works 5 days a week for 12 months. That's $480 for that year. At age 75 that coffee would have costed that person $33,078.65 at 8% interest. To put it another way, that single $2 cup of coffee costed $137.83 at age 85.

I knew Starbucks was expensive, but they sure do have good coffee.

My cousin just bought a game box for $300, he is 12 years old. By the time he is 65 at 8% interest, it will have costed him $17,724.76 and I guarentee he won't still have the game box.

I got served papers today by a bank where i got a loan 4 years ago. I owe them $10,000 and now they're suing me. I'm not working that's why i haven't paid. The last time I paid was about 1 year ago. My question is this- My husband is the only one working, we did not get this loan together and we just bought a house last year too. The house is in his name only. When I go to court for this, will HIS income get garnished, will a lien be placed on the house? Is there any chance that the bank will reduce the debt just so they can get some cash? I don't want to get a lawyer if i can settle this by myself, but my husband says i may have to file bankruptcy cuz i have outstanding credit card debt, $5000, and medical bills. I live in TX, so I'd appreciate any input anyone has to offer.

I have started a business and would like to promote it via less costly advertising and I thought that it would be a good idea to hang flyers about my business on utility poles around the neighborhood. I am affraid that this might be illegal and subject me to criminal/civil penalties.

If you got a job for only $2000 a year at age 15 and worked that job investing it at 8% until your 36. You could retire at 65 with over a million dollars $1,014,777.12

$2000 per year, about $39 a week, less than $6 a work day, or less than $1 a hour at 40 hours a week. If you could do that junky little part-time job in addition to your real life stuff from age 15 - 36, then you could retire a millionaire. Think about that if your around 15, because some of us were never told about finance at that age and it's too late to go the easy course.

My fiance and I own a duplex where we live in one side and we rent the other side out. We have a vacancy to fill, and posted an ad online. We have recieved many responses, including a few friends we know and trust. We have a couple who wants to move in, but they have 2 dogs. My fiance and I own a dog of our own, and we are considering getting rid of him due to not enough space and proximity to the road even. We do not want to allow renters with pets. Normally, we would just say no, but they say they have a doctors note for both of them saying they need the dogs for therapeutic reasons. I know, legally, we cannot discriminate against people who are disabled and need a seeing eye dog and such, but does this count as a disability, if they can provide the note? Just imagining two dogs in the living area we have is tough, since the place is not exactly huge, we find 1 dog to be a problem alot. Can we legally turn them down, or is this considred a disability? The woman just had back surgery.
