I sell cell phones, Nokia 8800's...they are about $700 retail, or more. Why is it that just about everyday I get a person offering me MORE than what I'm asking for it...and they ALWAYS make up some story like 'My son lives in Nigeria, I'd like it sent there'. I've heard some crazy stories. WHAT is up with this? Will they try to send me fraudulent money? Any info is appreciated.

I need a second job that is not as stressful as my first. I've been a victim of a few work from home scams. However, I would be grateful if someone could recommend something.

After 20 years in the Military moving from state to state and country to country and after working overseas as a civilian for the last 10 years were ready to settle down and retire. We are now looking for a state to retire to that has low property taxes, not too cold of a climate, reasonably price homes, low crime and a city no larger than 500,000 people. We do not have any kids in school so the school system is not important to us. We lived in Texas and the property taxes are high, also lived in Georgia where the property taxes are not to bad. If we had a $250,000 home in your area what would the property taxes be?

i recently purchased home with 2 loans. The first is at 5.75%.The second is at 6.75%. I have alot of credit card debt. I am strapped financially. I have 40,000 left of usable equity in my 2nd (leaving 10% in). I recently have 2 deragatories on my credit rating for my 2nd. Should I take out the remaining $40,000 in my 2nd and consolidate some of my debt, pay outstanding taxes due and try and hammer away at the rest of the debt slowly. Or should i protect my equity in case of emergency job loss, declare bankruptcy and protect my home. Please help. I am about to sign on the dotted line out of desperation for a loan that will charge 10points due to poor credit. My sense is instead of pulling more equity...to move toward bankruptcy and save equity for emergency in case of job loss. My current credit card, and tax debt is 60,000(16,000 due to IRS which bankruptcy will not pay for). Not including my home of course.

Well, I'm a freshman male in college but don't really know what I want to do with my life. A lot of people in my family are accountants, so thats what I put as my major, but I'm not that interested in it. I am interested in criminal justice, medical careers, anything that revolves around sports, and it seems fun to me to own my own business.

What are some interesting careers in these fields?

There is a booklet that tells you the percentages for filing for separated, married filing separately or just filing as married. I'm trying to decide what to put on form when I start a new job. I also want to know what percentage they will be deducting from my check so I can figure out my net check.

I am planning to open a franchise business that specializes in specific types of automobile repair. There are a number of territories in the U.S. still available. What specific areas of the country or cities might ifind the highest percentage of older cars still on the road (assuming that these would be the cars requiring the most frequent repair services)?

I got in an accident June 11 of this year. My insurance company decided about 30 days later that the claim was void because i wasn't listed as a driver on my dad's policy and they believed i lived with him.

To prove i didn't live with, i got check stubs from the previous 4 years, mail from before, around the same time as, and after the accident. I gave this all to the insurance company to prove i was not staying with my dad (i even offered to confirm it though my school, but they said it wasn't necessary). So by their policy / law, i was covered under his insurance.

They never responded, but said they would if there were any more problems. Later, i recieved a letter from the DMV stating that I had to send my liscence, and tags in before the 27th of this month unless the claim was paid. Along with that i needed to provide proof of being covered.

My insurance assured me things were ok, and took these papers and sent them in for me. Today, I got another letter denying my claim. WTF?

Lets say hypothetically, you purchased 25000 shares in company XYZ. You purchased it for 0.25 a share. Say it climbed to 2.50 in two months. Than it dropped to 1.95 in two weeks. You stay strong, and it climbs to 4.50 in 3 months than it drops to 4.25 in one month. What would you do? What would be your deciding factors in selling, or buying more? What would you look at? Volume? Moving average? EPS, P/E, sector performance? This is a what if queshtion, so no smart *** answers please. Once I choose the best answer, I will give my answer, and an answer from a professional. Let see how you compare.
