Business & Finance - 15 August 2006

I am currently a Math Major at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo and I was recently researching what it is exactly I would like to do when I graduate and I came accross the position of finanacial analyst.
What things should I start doing my last few quarters at Cal Poly in order to make a move into that profession? Are there some classes I can take that would give me a jump up? I know I want my career to be in finance so do you have any sggestions? Are there any licenses that you think would be useful on my resume such as the series 65 (investment analysis)? How does a recent graduate start to move towards this career? Who would hire me? Where should I look? I am currently doing an internship with the accounting department of a corporation, but what else can I do to help employers want me?

My landlord installed a sprinkler system and waters the grass constantly. Water costs more than gas and electric. How do I handle this!?

The one where the divorced parents do something with the kids and the father thanks his ex for inviting him along? What do you think of it? I think it's refreshing to see a company acknowledge that the nuclear family is no longer the norm.

Experian has a website that allows you to print a document which is to be filled out with the requested info, and mailed to a specific adress. In doing so, I have managed to have the security freeze removed from Experian. The problem is that Experian has not notified TransUnion, or Equifax about the security freeze being removed from my credit file, so I am still stuck, and of course, there is absolutly no one I can call or speak with to help my situation. Any help is GREATLY appreciated.

How long is a non profit group required to keep a receipt book? I am being told that we have to keep it for tax purposes, but all our funding is recorded in Quick books, receipts are written just for those who donate while we are at a function, and they do not include anything we get in the mail. I thought the receipts were to benefit the giver - not a tax record for the agency.

I'm looking to invest my money in stocks. For the past 2 years I've had my money invested in real estate but want to try something new. I plan on investing about $350,000 and my friends all tell me to invest in gold, futures, or currency. I agree that these are good if bought at the right time. I just want to know where other people are looking.

Not the ones who offer points systems, but actually pay people to take surveys. Or any way to supplement my income, that is not a rip off.

So I just finished college and my credit is average. Its been pulled a few of times over the last couple of months as I've been applying for a small loan ($3000) to help build credit. I applied online at US Bank and was denied so I called in to apply with a representative who told me I would qualify no problem. I didn't. I'm not sure where to go to get a loan. Any ideas?

If I want to sell something on ebay and have a personal paypal account can people buy my item using paypal only if they have thier own paypal account. I know if you update to a premier or business account then they can use credit or debit cards but if the buyer already has paypal then they should be able to still put money from their paypal account into mine, right? thanks in advance for any answers.
