Business & Finance - 30 July 2006

I' am thinking of changing my name mainly because I think my first name is very unique and I aspire to go to law school and work in a more professional arena in the future and I think my name would hurt me when seeking employment.

I'm curious to know what do you guys think about having unique names and seeking employment. Thanks in advance.

I was recently looking for a good job that have that fits into my at home schooling and housewife work. My husband and i only have 1 vehicle and don't live very clsoe to a busline thus making it fairly hard for me to get a job. Then while browsing for jobs i found this link http://www.womenwithdreams.com/.... It seems to be very legit and very straight foward, but before i think aboput investing in form of time or money into it, i wanted to see if anyone has worked with them or knows of them. So, can anyone tell me anything about them? Is the at home business actually legit?

I have obtained a current copy of my credit report and paid off all outstanding debts. The only thing I owe on is my truck and that is thru Chrysler. I have raised my score from 560 to 628. The last two negative items I have gotten deleted have not raised my score. Does deleting old negative accounts always raise your score or do you hit a point where it no longer helps. I now have 19 positive and 17 negative items. Any advice would help on how to continue to raise my score.

I'd like to own and run my own coffee house someday. Where do I start? Is there a good book to get the details on how exactly I do this and what steps I need to take? For example, how do I obtain or choose a location? Where do I choose suppliers? I have not taken any business courses either, so I could use any advice.

Err...I had another question posted about what to do with $200, but now I have $500. Originally planned to buy a DS lite, then I planned to buy a PSP, then I was thinking about getting a Wii. My plan right now is to wait until about a year after the Wii goes out to buy it when prices are down so that I'm not wasting my money...or should I save it all until I really need it for like school laptop or a car(I'm bound to get more money some way throughout the future)

A relative is going to loan me the money I need to pay off my credit debt. I'm suppose to file my appearance in court on Tues.

Should I call and make arrangements to send the payment in to the credit card company or the collection agency?

Do you think they will dismiss the lawsuit?
