Business & Finance - 9 December 2006

I've decided to take a wack at designing gift baskets for people. I've always done it for friends and family and they LOVE what i create. I will have all categories from kids age 7 to grandparents. Under each category there will be subcategories...based on what their loved ones may be interested in. I will then create a gift basket chock full of goodies that coinside with what they've told me. Does anyone think i can make a go of this? What are your pros and cons? Please don't be rude. And thanks for your comments.

Should I go into:

1. Marketing Research and Analysis (I would need an MBA or MS in Marketing with expertise in SAS and SPSS)?
2. Investment Research and Analysis (I would need an MS in Finance or an MBA, eventually needing a CFA)?
3. Statistical Modeling (I would need an MS in Applied Statistics probably)?

I was holding a personal note on a house I owned. The person that was buying it obtained a conventional loan and I need to give him a release of debt. I'm not sure it needs to be in a legal format or a simple letter stating the dept has been met.

I have a friend who is considering working with HIV populations as a counselor, advocate or an educator. She has a Masters in Education, and Divinity. She has a background simular to mine. (We both have a Masters in Divinity and Education) She has also recently discovered that she has HIV as a result of her husbands extra marital affairs.

She is really an awesome person as well as an awesome minister. I think that her unique background and experience would be an asset to that particular career.

QUESTION FOR YOU:

Do you all have any suggestions of organizations that she could explore or do you know of anyone who is hiring for that kind of job. (She really would like to make HIV HER NEW CAREER FIELD; coupled with her ministry background I think she can be a help to a lot of people.)

I found a 100 dollar bill image online (both sides) and want to print it only for the sake of using it in a stage play. I don't intend to use high resolution, meaning no one will be convinced it's real when looking up close. Is that still okay? Is it legal to print money in any way, or are there absolutely no exceptions?

It's taxed 74p (about 1.44 american) here now - we all love Grordon Brown - so a litre is about 93p - 99p, (1.81 - 1.93) how much is it in the US?

PS, I got the conversions off Yahoo finance, so I have no idea if they're right or not, or even if it means 1 dollar 93 cents or not. And I don't have a dollar sign on this keyboard. Sorry.

I worked as an EMT before and loved it, and now I'm in nursing school but I already miss being in the field. I was just wondering if anyone had heard of any jobs like this or anything like it.

It has to be legal (no drugs or prostitution), no loans or credit cards, and you don't have any large personal possesions to sell.
