The basic idea is that their customers pay you and then you send these funds to the company that is somewhere overseas. I have seen these for companies based in China, Hong Kong, Japan and now Togo Africa. Are these scams? Identity theft scams? Or just what? I really do not see the reasoning behind these companies paying 10% to an agent to accept money from customers when the customers themselves can just send these funds directly to the company.
Anybody have any insights? Is this a legit part of the import and export business?

It seems the higher up the ladder you go, the more responsibility you have with less grunt work. What do CEOs actually do to earn such high outrageous salaries?

I worked for a company here in Michigan and was let go for poor job performace. I have only received 1 write up and have also had a couple of bad reviews, however I contested those in writing. I did not see this coming and was totally blindsided that I would be fired, my boss decided to do this on a whim one day. I honestly tried my best at work, but due to lack of resources that were available to me at work, it was a situation where I felt my hands were tied and I chose to stick it out rather than quit. Any help would be great, thanks!

Elderly housebound relation gave his bank card to a neighbour to get weekly shopping for him by withdrawing cash. Relation was then hospitalised and 'neighbour' took over 20K over a period of time using cash machine and withdrawing £250 each day. Normal usage would be £250 per month.Relation is too embarrased to get police involved. Do the bank have any duty of care?

I was just offered a new position at the same place I work at. A 5% raise immediately plus probably a 3% raise at the end of the year. I know I can do the work, but the areas are not my favorite and the last 2 people who held the job complained about it a lot. I could really use some extra money and my supervisor really wants me to take the new position. Do I take it for the money and take the chance of not being as happy?

I know having too many is not good for a person's credit score and looks bad to those checking this credit. But not having any credit (such as cards) is not good either. So is it best to have more than one card?

I'm working as an engineer and earning ok but i dont have the interests and passion for this job, instead i was looking around and found becoming advisor was an interesting and challenging so i decided to take on the opportunity.
But recently when i told everyone around me that i was gonna quit my job and becoming a FA, some were shocked and told me that there's no security for such income and you have to keep finding clients in order to get the commisions and all those negatives stuffs ... i still think it's worth the shot but what do you guys think?
