I am in Ch 13 and find that I also have to let my house go. However, I am worried about foreclosure. What problems have you had, anything you would have done differently? I have legal council, but I want to make sure I ask the right questions. What do I do about home owners insurance, how do I get answers from my mortgage company, etc.?

I'm looking for a home, with a budget of around 150,000£. With this money, I think I'll have to settle at an area outside of London. So far, Kent seems to be a reasonable choice.

However, apart from the legal and morgage costs, what concerns me is the travel cost. For example, a yearly ticket from Dartford to London takes about 1400£. And this doesn't include the amount required to travel by tube and bus inside London.

And if you live further from Dartford, then the cost of travelling to London will rise.

Many said that it's cheaper to live far from London. But economically speaking, is it really worthy to buy a home outside of London?

I had received an automated e-mail response from one of the jobs, and but have not or will have never received any response from most of the jobs that I had applied for in the beginning. It's been 3 weeks now since I lost my job, so it'll be a month this Sunday. I did receive a response from the recent job I applied for online, and I'll go to hiring site to take the assessment this coming Wednesday.

What would you suggest to increase responses from prospective employers?

hello, last thursday I was illegally evicted from my apartment. I owed late fees only totalling $1000. I never received a notice from my landlord for court and planned to pay the balance Friday. My mother had pulled up and saw when they first started taking my things out. There was no sheriff there. The apt maintenance crew packed my stuff. Several of my items were taken by them before they started throwing my stuff out. TV's DVD players, DVD's. my daughters dresser with all of her clothes in it. my dinning room table and chairs, my make-up kit and most of my coats and jackets. Also jewelry and all of my business documents (birth certificate, checkbook, rental receipts) are all missing. My neighbor upstairs said she saw one of the maint guys taking my tv out before they started the eviction. I also have a picture of my dining set in maint. storage, they wont return it. The landlord couldnt show me an eviction notice when I went to the office. Do I legally have grounds to sue them?

Opinions...input..have you done this before? how does it work? what are your experiences? was it a good choice, would you do it again if you had to? Thanks in advance.

Sometimes, technology and visual aids can be more of a distraction than a helpful component to a presentation. Provide an example of this from a business presentation. How could it be changed to be more effective?
