I have about 7k in credit card debt. I also need some extra money for the property tax coming up by the end of the year. Would a personal loan be better than a HELOC?

I'm not trying to boast but I've been told I make really nice gift baskets. I have a bridal shower to go to but I'm short on cash. If I buy a gift basket and gift wrap from the dollar store, and buy some bath and body products from a local warehouse sale (which is good quality) will it be cheaper than buying a ready made basket?

Black people are treated far better than whites at my job. And most of them SUCK at their jobs (meaning..they don't show up half the time, don't do their work, sit around chatting, **** stuff up). Yet they never get reprimanded EVER. If I do one tiny thing wrong I get yelled at. I'm a great employee who never calls off, never slacks off, and pays close attention to my work. Can I sue my stupid employer? It is technically a violation of Title VII. I'm definitely not the only person who has noticed this either.

I found this website yesterday where money is easy to come by.


just go to http://www.treasuretrooper.com/185178 and sign up (with a crap email account cuz there gonna send ads to it) register at the site, go to cash offers and find any offer with "intent" in the description. click on the offer, type ur email or zip code, and theres 50 cents on ur account. Theres probably 100 ads like that on there, so thats an easy 50$ + a week. I made 45$ in 15 minutes yesterday..

We have been victimes of fraud and identity theft with them. We gave them a large deposit on the condition of a loan and nothing was resolved. Has anyone else been in this situation and if so have you done anything further?

Banks are famously wary of lending to small-business owners. So how did you manage to get a mortgage with reasonable terms? Or did many banks refuse you?

My fiance and I are getting married in June 07
He is wanting to have his own personal account that he will take 50-100 out his check every pay period to spend on whatever he wants no matter cost or what the item is. His example was a $40 video game. That I have no problem with. My issue is that we had agreed to have a joint account at one bank and now he is wanting his own account seperate while I place my entire check into the joint account . Both of us are on direct deposit. Am I wrong by feeling like this is an unfair deal if he's taking amounts out of his check to "play" and my check is used for bills along with his. He brought up that he makes more money than I do so he should be able to spend what he wants. I am very concerned with having to track two accounts possibly three or more if I have an account then the joint account his personal account. So anyone that has joint accounts or single accounts or both what has worked best for you... ? Second how can this affect us tax wise

I am going back to college for my accounting degree. While I am still in School, I think it is a good idea to have a job in accounting related area such as accounts payable, etc. However, everytime I read the ads, all of them require experience. How do I get my experience if no one give me a chance to have experience?

Any company willing to give me a chance?

I am a fast learner.

Can you get old info off of your credit report after you settle accounts? How long does it take for the creditors to take off the payments you paid off?
