Hi there,
I have a private student loan that is a variable loan and the interest rate today is at 8.3%, the principal balance is $40,000. I have been paying on the loan since June 2003. The monthly payment started out at $300 a month and now it is at $400 a month. I'm worried it is going to keep going up as interest rates rise, besides saving to pay it off early, any suggestions as to how to get rid of it or get the interest rate fixed?

Thanks so much!

Hi there-

Just wondering something... I heard that EVERYTHING that is on your credit report for 7 years or more, it gets "deleted" (that's the best way to put it i guess)...
First off, is this true?
and Second, does EVERYTHING get deleted off your credit if it is 7 years old or more?

thanks for your time!

p.s. please no repeat answers for free points. i appreciate it. thanks again!

Example:

Assume that the Fed has made an unofficial announcement that it will raise interest rates and the Fed is going to formally announce this tomorrow. Because Bernake hasn't formally announced the rate hike, but everyone knows it's going to happen, does the market react to the news after the informal or formal announcement?

Same can be said regarding unemployment figures, earnings reports or contract awards.

So...does the market react only after the formal announcement? If so, it seems a good opportunity for speculators to make some money.

Can anyone give me some good advice? I'm single, 25 and live in Oregon. I have worked for a real estate investment company since August 2005. I get paid at the end of the year through a 1099-Misc. I will gross around $50k this year. I know that deductions will help with reducing my taxes, but is there any reason for me to start my own business and have my employer pay my business instead of me, to help reduce all the taxes that I will end up paying to the Feds and State?
I would appreciate any advice!
Thank you much!

Where can I find a cost of living index for UK cities?

The salary I earn is less than that offered for similar roles in the south of England. My manager keeps pointing out that this is due to differences in the cost of living.

However, I think they are over-estimating this and would like to get some credible satistics to show them (& hopefully get them to pay me a fairer salary).

Thanks in advance.

My friend and I are seriously trying to get into modeling, but we don't know where to get started. I live near Austin. Are there any places in or around the Austin area that would provide modeling classes, or any other way to become a model? We're 14 if that makes any difference. If so, could someone give me some info please? Thanks.

and steps up to the teller.
"Patricia Black, how may I help you?", the teller says.
"I'm looking for a loan" says the frog
"I'm sorry, but we don't give loans to frogs."
"Why not? I need a loan, and this is a bank."
"Well, for one thing, you probably don't have any major assetts that we can use as collatoral."
"I have collatoral!" says the frog, and he pulls out a silver trinket.
"I'm sorry, we're looking for something a bit more valuable--like a house." says the teller.
"Well if you're not going to grant me a loan, at least let me speak to your manager!" grumbles the frog. So the teller calls the manager.
"What's the problem?" asks the manager.
"This frog wants a loan, but all he has is this little doohickey." The frog holds up the trinket.
"Oh my gosh..." says the manager, who is amazed upon seeing the frogs trinket "do you know what that is?..." the manager trails off before he yells...













"THAT'S A KNICK-KNACK, PATTY BLACK, GIVE THE FROG A LOAN!"

I have managed to get my original perpetual motion device to turn by itself for one year at 3000rpm. Because it was consructed with cardboard and double-sided tape, it fell apart. The new prototype should turn at around 300 000 rpm. but because I have self funded it till now, I have run out of capital. If there is anyone out there who willbe able to assist me, I would be most thankfull.

It is in a nicer area of town...not close to any colleges and may be slightly higher in rent than a normal tenant is used to paying. Anyone have any suggestions of how to find rentors other than a yard sign in the front lawn or the Sunday Newspaper?
