I went to a site where you buy foreign currency at the current exchange rate... long story short, am I really gonna get 1,000 yen for $10? And 1,000 Korean won for less that $2? I've also got 10 dirhams for $3.28, 200 shillings for $3.25, and 10.00 guatemalan quetzals for $1.58.


And sorry if this Q is missplaced, I didn't really know which category it fit in.

I know when it was founded 150 years or so ago it was very much based on Christianity (hence the C in the name) but these days, it seems like moslty a health club/community center thing. Has their official charter moved away from the religious aspects?

Why is it that so many of the people that support the War in Iraq are not willing to send their sons to fight there? I come from a family where joining the Military during War time was expected of you. If I were young enought I would be in the Military myself, I do have a nephew who is in the Military right now. I had two blood relitives who served on Viet-Nam, one who served in Korea, and three who served in WWII, they all saw combat. I guess it's a rich man's War and a poor man's fight! This question will be listed under Business and Finance because of all of man's enterprises War is the most profitable

I already have a 401k that I invest in and I am going to open up a ROTH IRA also. What is the best company to go with, and what funds? I have looked at Vanguard and Fidelity so far. Does anyone have any suggestions on who to invest with and also once I get to their website where do I allocate my money? Any informative advice would help!

STUPID- I sent a landlord a deposit for a property 3,000 miles away. I had friends go look at it and they said it was a dump. I told the landlord that I had reconsidered and he said no problem he would give the money back. Two days later he calls and says no go. If I am able to stop payment on the check(may not have cleared out of state yet) does he have any recourse? If the check had cleared can I get my money back? NOTHING WAS SIGNED

Hi, I am selling my home by owner. I have an offer to list it on the MLS for $179 and still retain my right to sell by owner. I am thinking of offering agents 2.5% or 3% commission for bringing me a buyer. I see that I can buy a digital lock box on the internet for only about $40. As I am not home most antytime, I would like them to be able to gain access. I know the lock box would have a code and I would put my key in there, but how do I get the code to the agent? How do I know they are an agent and not someone robbing my home? Can anyone offer any information that could help me out? Thanks

A few months ago I was considering hiring a lawyer for a personal matter, and I started searching for one. I spoke to one with the understanding I wasn't ready to hire one yet, but he offered to chat with me anyway so he could learn more about what i needed. I assumed he would try to sell me on his services and offer some generalized advice. He did both. We spoke for about 1 hour. He gave me some his opinions and some things to consider. For various reasons, I decided not to work with him for now. He called me to follow-up last week and started giving me his opinions again. I told him I wasn't going to hire him now. He then sent me a bill for $340 for his time. I have no agreement with him. I never signed a contract. We never even discussed hourly fees. Am I required to pay this? If not, how do I handle it? I realize he gave me some of his time and some input, but that's a lot of money for some advice I didn't specifically ask for or agree to.
