We live in a high priced neighborhood and now we are weighing our options as whether or not to move. Moving will be a tough option, but we thought we bought into pure class with strict homeowners rules.

Our residents are ignoring the homeowners association by continuing to leave up trampolines (forbidden), bb goals (forbidden) out front, masses of kids running the neighborhood cutting through all the yards, trash and toys laying EVERYWHERE--lots of loud screaming. Where does the responsibility fall on homeowners to ENFORCE the rules WE bought into? Now I feel it is nothing anymore special than we owned before because you have the families who can't afford to live here unless they buy together. How does this image, trashy toys, and stuff laying everywhere affect our home value? Is there anything I can do to MAKE the homeowners association enforce the rules in the book? I regret the day we put the pen to the paper.

I have worked with this boss for going to 3years now. I have come to understand that he does have something against me, but I can't pin down what it could be. Right now I'm working on a project for his boss. So far I have reported to my boss informing him of the progress. The other day his boss asks me how everything (the project) was going cos she had asked my boss the same question and he said he didn't know. I was surprised, but before i knew it i was giving an excuse on his behalf, that he had been busy anyway. Later on thinking about our conversation, I felt I should have mentioned how he'd try to ridicule me each time i reported to him. How can i handle my boss?

I read around already about what to do on post-interview followups. The HR lady I e-mailed just today replied saying they're still considering my candidacy and that she'll let me know when a decision is reached. I usually assume when interviewer thinks "hell no", they send me the "too bad so sad" mail in no more than a week, or just never hear from them at all. In this case, could it mean I'm at least hard to ignore or weed out if they're taking longer than what they say? I know I gotta hear something from them since it's a big name company with a lot of credibility.

I made an error on a check and went over my cash advance limit. I then tried to rectify it plus fees to my university (wrote a new check that is WITHIN my limit). The credit card company cancelled the SECOND check wrongly and gave me a credit. Three days ago they REASSESSED the fee. I called and the first person I talked to told me that the supervisor came and decided that I SHOULD be assessed the fee and reinstated it. Then I talked to the supervisor and they said my school (university of michigan) attempted to run the RETURNED check again. My school is telling me I don't owe them any money and that the check hasn't been returned. All they have assessed me is the first check that was over the limit (which suprise suprise, they didn't try to run through again after it was returned)..so someone is making a mistake.

What do I do??

I see these places on TV that advertise to get your credit report for free but every one I have been to once I have filled out all of the info suddenly they are asking for a credit card # to pay for it. I want to be able to check it at least once a year but is there a free place on line to do this?

I'm going to be opening a retail space in/ near Long Beach Ca.
My business is not likely to have a huge change in sales due to Christmas.
So, if it's not critical to be open by Christmas, can I wait till after Christmas to sign a lease and expect to get a cheaper rate per month? My thought is that more people are trying to start retail businesses before Christmas, placing a demand on space. Then after Christmas there will be more businesses shutting down due to the drop off in sales. So I thought there might be a glut of space available in January driving the average price per foot down.
Is this reasonable, or is the reality different?

ordered a car part from retailer, got it, returned it, and they will only refund the parts price, not the CA sales tax. They claim its thier company policy to not refund sales tax...can a company just decide to pocket your sales tax like that???

Are ther any credit card companies that entice new customers by letting them take all their reward points from their old card with them when they switch to a new card?

My current credit card APR is 12%. I want to get a card with a lower rate, but dont want to lose all the reward points I have accrued.

I love marketing and promotions, but I also love psychology. I am a psychology major, but I decided to minor in marketing. I started college with the hopes of becoming an industrial organizational psychologist, but while taking my minor courses I discovered that I love the business aspect even more than the psychology aspect. I was trying to find a career that would infuse the two. Any suggestions?

when i called the customer service reps, they said that online payment was available on the account but when i try to log on using the info i have, i get a screen that says "service not available" . Anyone ever have that problem? Is it because it's such a new account (activated 1 day ago). There isnt any payment due yet but I like being on top on what i owe so i can see fees, etc at all times! I know if you pay by phone, it costs like $10!!! Are they screwing with me so i would have to pay late or pay $10 each time I pay my bill??? Any thoughts?

a car slammed into me from behind while i was waiting at a red light in february.... i had major headaches and neck pain, esp muscle tension.....i couldn't exercise normally.. so i had to go to a chiropractor for 3 months, and he told me to rest, and i started exercising again (slowly)...and my shoulder muscles were tensing so much it was painful... so i had to go back to the chiro for another two weeks. now the insurance company is saying they don't "believe" that the 2nd session was related to the accident.... what can i do? do i have to sue them? is that going to be a hard process?

:( i'm sad.....
