My next statement is coming on the 11th. I have the Capital One Plantium(spelling) card. I charged 119.00 dollars on it, with a 20% interest. I do get a grace period, to pay back correct, like around 20 days right? Should I pay it in full or make the minium payment?

I had a credit card and a line of credit charged off back in 2002. I have kept making monthly payments to them since then. Back in 2005 the last written communications for both accounts had each balance in the upper $8000 range. Now a debt collection agency that has been trying to collect on the credit card(I haven't sent a payment to, I send it straight to the credit card co.) has now sent a statement for some account with a balance of$10162.57 and no reference that would clue me in on what account it could be for. The line of credit's bank in the past few years has been bought out by the bank that has my credit card account, recently sent an offer to settle the account for $2000, but didn't list the current balance. I couldn't pay that and continue to send a monthly payment. Whichever this account it is about, the amount is what is puzzling me and leads me to asking my question.

This question doesn't apply to those who haven't a job or just happen to be the CEO of some company. If you are a dumb manager who doesn't work with your crew and just gives orders you are exempt as well.

As a hard working wage worker tring to pay bills and have at least some fun in life, it is you who truly knows what is wrong with the world by serving stupid customers.

What is your unique philosophy as a customer service worker?

What have you noticed about certain people?

Have you had trouble serving any of the following.....

Drunks, Rich People, Impatients, Senseless Complainers, Ignorant Children, Racist, Robbers, Mothers and Fathers who use their kids as reason for a discount....ETC..

If you have learned anything about the people in this world by dealing with "Stupid Customers" at your job that makes your life a difficult one to live please share it.

Wondering if any real estate agents out there can let me know where to start. I don't have any certifications for real estate, but am interested in getting started. Is a degree needed first, or are there places that will hire and train?

My husband and I got car insurance. Before our policy was up I got into a minor accident (me and my neighbor accross the street backed up at same time- it was ruled I was at fault --I had the slower car apparently). I immediatly reported incedent to our insurance. When the 6 mo policy was up my husband and I switched to a cheaper company. I told them about the accident and we paid our 6 months in advance because we saved the state income tax check to do it so we would have the money. I got a phone call 2 wks ago from my agent and she told me that the neighbor had just filed and it came thru so we'd have to pay extra but they would just charge us the extra cost of our insurance going up. Well, we couldn't really afford this and I was thinking about a second job but we were gonna wait and see how much more it was going to cost us. We had no thought of switching companies and told her this. We were happy with where we were. she said a bill would be sent out. instead we got cancelled.

but divided up six months apart. she's been on section 8 for years. What will section 8 do about her back pay? Its not like she's going to get it all at once. SSI already paid her 1,809.00 and her first check came in on the 9-1-2006. She does not want section 8 to take her back pay but what kind of home could she buy with 7,000.00? I'm just making it myself. She won't live with her kid's.. She's 59 and she is a loner. Serious answers please. I think she was better off with no income than this 603.00 a month.

What kind of work do you do to make extra money, on top of your regular job income? Most people need extra to save for retirement or for unexpected or anticipated expenses. Thanks

Hello Everyone, Okay here it is.... 19 year old female from a big town with a lot of opportunity in the restaurant business. I have worked at the same place for 7 years. I make only 6.50 as a waitress, but understand this, i have many responsibilities such as answering phone, cashier, cleaning at the end of the night, assisting the cook, stocking shelfs, stocking soda cooler, cleaning the bathrooms, busing my own tables...helping me cook...etc....., so i have not gotten a raise in 3 years and my boss is a complete asshole.he tells me that he owns my life as long as i work there and other nasty things....... so my question is should i quit or stick it out, i say stick it out because I am moving out of town in May, so i only have like 8 months left here? oh and also i was told yesterday that i now have to work open to close on saturday and sunday which is from 10 am until 11 pm with no breaks.....i am also a full time college student. and school is number one to me.THANKS IN ADVANCE..!.
