I sent my photos to Abercrombie, but I get the feeling that I am not their type. I was hired by another modeling agency, but I turned them down. Does anybody know a good place for modeling because I know I have great assets to bring to the table?

I need a good fiancial planner. I earn W2 wages as an engineering consultant. When my daughter fills out FAFSA application she gets disqualified from getting any grant/ scholarship or government loan (such as stafford loan) for attneding a four year college (BBA degree). I have ended up brrowing from Sallie Mae to pay for her college. FAFSA looks at my w2 wages and does not ask about how much loans I have or how much I am paying in mortgages and property taxes. Is there any help available?

Wondering about tax difference between qualifying money earned as income versus bonus. Bonuses get hit hard for tax purposes without an opportunity to get it back at the end of the year. Wondering if it is better to receive all money as income verus a bonus.

We made reservations at the Savannah Beach Inn on Tybee Island. 3 days later my mother-in-law went into the hospital. 3wks later she died. I called the Inn and tried to cancel the reservations, but the manager, Anastasia talked me into keeping them. Since we didn't realize just how bad our mother was, we did, but later canceled them a day late of their policy for cancellation. How do we get our money back? We never went and I wouldn't go there now if you pd me to. Thats awful to be so uncompassionate at such a hard time. Besides Anasatasia said they rented our room out anyway. So they got those people's money plus our's of over $1,200.00! I called our credit card company and informed them of the situation. Will this take care of the bill?

I love my job...I am very well respeceted, have been there 6+ years, have my own corner office, get all the Internet access I want, only have to supervise one employee and have an awesome boss. Full time (which I am) is considered only 35 hours per week, and I can work a flexible schedule anytime I need to.

I also was just voted "Employee of the Year".

I get free health insurance.

It is a non-profit agency.....but people tell me all the time I can go somewhere else and make at least $20 to $30k minimum more somewhere else doing the same thing.

I love my 5 weeks vacation, app. 15 holidays per year, 12 sick days per year and I love my co-workers.

My fiancee is pressuring me to go somewhere else, and I've had friends tell me that I could make so much more money elsewhere too.

But, is money everything? I can pay my bills, although I do live check to check.

I know I don't get nearly as much as I should in salary, but I feel the benefits make up for it in a way.....I'm so torn.

We are first time home buyers and with the many options of real estate agents out there in the market, we cant decide as to whom should we choose? Should we choose some Rookie agent who has 2-3 years of exp but in order to gain trust and get business, will go the extra mile for us in making sure that we get a good deal, or should we go with an experienced agent who is well seasoned in their profession? As a buyer is it really necessary to have a really experienced agent rather have someone who is relatively less experienced but is willing to work more closely with you to make sure that all goes well? What has been the experience of others on this forum?

to recieve paymengt because I had to wait until the company i worked for was paid by its client. I picked up 3 checks that the cimpany owed me and went straight to a check cashing place and cashed the checks so i didn't have to wait in fear for them to be returned. i had reason to beilveive the company had financial problems. The checks were returned by the companys bank, the cc place called me. i gave them the name & # of the guy who hire me for the work, they left msg, they called me back, i did the best I could to help them reach him (he was not responding to my calls either) THEN his # changed and he moved from the small office he was working from in Marina del rey. NOW THE CC PLACE has mailed ME a copy of his returned check & is demanding I pay them or they will take me to court. they are writing me letters, making it sound like i wrote them a bad check! Does anyone know how I should proceed? i am doing some research, but If someone has any certain knowledge, PLEASE ANSWER MY ?TH
