However Capital has credit card withan awesome APR and benefits compare to my current ones. Any help/suggestions will be greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

I owned both FGRIX (Fidelity Growth and Income) and FLPSX (Fidelity Low Priced Stock) and both were absolutely massacred on 9/5/2006, but especially FGRIX. The losses were huge... far, far more than any market index. How can a large diversified mutual fund lose 20% of its value in a couple of days when the market only loses... maybe 1% in the same time ? I am baffled. Please provide any relevant info sources, because this seems really, really weird to me.

A while back, I settled for less than the full balance with Capital One and am considering now paying them the remaining balance in order to improve my credit score a bit. The dilemma is this: while the remaining balance is only about $135, I'm considering leaving it alone because the derogatory comment will come off as of November 2007. So I'm thinking that, if I pay this, by the time it's actually updated on my credit report, it will only be about 9 months earlier than if I had just waited. Also, the Capital One rep said that paying it in full would NOT re-age the debt, which was a consideration. I guess it comes down to whether or not I'm willing to pay some cash to improve my score a little sooner.

Wal-Mart has been very good to it's workers.....in China.

They are the supercenter of low wages, poor benefits, and imported products.

Is Wal-Mart better for America....or China?
