I know all circumstances are different but I would like some recommendations as there are so many to chose from and I am sick of repeating my details, so if I could whittle it down a bit it may help!

My husband I both work full time five days a week, and I sell odds and ends on E-bay & at a weekend flea market to make ends meet. We have basic bills (utilities, car note, rent, grocery, etc) that we have to pay and we do very well to budget and not spend unnessesary funds on frivolus items. Unfortunately, at least one debtor is still not paid on time every month and savings remains empty. Does anyone have an tricks to establishing a better budget plan that would in the least help us get back on track faster so that bills can be paid on time? Or, can you think of any other "money making" opportunities we might look into?

Thanks in advance!

Hello, my in-laws are both over 65 living in upstate New york. They have a barely affordable mortgage repayment and have just received a notice from a law firm regarding an outstanding credit card repayment which they absolutely can't afford. They also have a property tax bill due which they likely can't afford either. Does anyone have any advice on a possible solution for their situation. Is bankruptcy a possibility (I know the laws have changed on that front)
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

I applied for a job but instead of phone call they send me this "application process" card that besically says 'we got it, don't contact us, we will contact you'. My husband says that they usually send those cards when they are not intending to take you for an interview. What do you think?

When i'm phoning up to enquire the simplest things they all say "can I just take your name and address" or "WE NEED your postcode" or something like that, and I'm not sure if that's even legal?
If I refused I expect they'd say we can't help you then. I'm interested in whether or not they are allowed to ask for such info before I make a fuss about it on the phone.
Also do similar things happen to you? (sorry I had no idea what category to put this in but since i'm concerned about the info getting in the wrong hands or being used for unknown purposes I put it here)

I am considering the pros and cons of living NH versus MA.
NH has no state income tax and no sales tax.
Houses are generally cheaper in NH, but real-estate taxes appear to be higher (per sqft) there (or not?). Gas costs about the same (in fact, I've seen cheaper gas in Cambridge than in Nashua).
However, most people, if they can afford it, generally try to live in MA. Even at the border between NH and MA, the population is a lot more on the MA side. So what is the catch? What keeps people away from NH in spite of all the economic advantages?

I understand that the stock market changes that, however it seems real easy for an oil company to "create" an event to raise prices. Should the price be regulated like other industries so they have to justify increased costs to raise prices? They are making a killing profit wise with everything going on.

Someone suggested that I look for jobs where size doesn't matter. I found that to be intriguing because I am wondering what companies care less about your size?

Any ideas? I think that if they're offering health benefits they will DEFINITELY pay attention to size because even healthy obese people trigger health issues (eventually) and their benefit costs will be more than a generally thin healthy employee.

People have many problems BUT some of them are really so bad.

And urgent too. Do you have such a problem that you beg to solve it JUST NOW?

But you do not know HOW TO?

I know the answer to this question but would like your input and honesty. Upon interviewing for several job opportunities and having the qualifications for the position, I'm beginning to realize that when I was thinner, I didn't have this much trouble.
