I just sent by mail $45 bucks on some home working mail thing. Now I don't know if this is a scam or what. I mean I don't understand any of it.

I am a 40-something woman with 20 years in high tech marketing communications and internal communications experience. Finding a job, until this August, has always been easy. Now, all of a sudden, I am repeatedly the final candidate in my job search, and am told that my work is great and THEY liked me, but they don't feel I would fit in with the corporate culture. Most of the time they don't even tell me what the corporate culture even is. If I am too old, wouldn't they know that on the first interview? What could I possibly be saying in final interviews that turn me from the top candidate to no job, over and over, because of corporate culture? What can I do in the final interview that's going to land me a job?

I am playing an imaginary stock market game with pretend money. I was wondering if anyone knows of some stocks that could drastically increase tomorrow which is the last day of the competition. Any suggestions? I prefer stocks that aren't penny stocks. However, feel free to name penny stocks also.

It sounds like the collector is the only winner. Is this true? Does the original creditor just lose the money completely if the debtor pays off the collector who purchased their account for pennies?

I purchased a home in February of this year. Around thanksgiving my husband and I noticed that the water from one of our pipes was sitting on top of the ground. When we called the plumber he said that we needed a new line and that it was going to be quite costly. I cant afford it but it has to be done. Is it possible to claim it on my taxes?

I was offered a job with a family and the center I currently work at. I just can't decide what to do. The nanny job pays more, but its not all about the money for me. I really enjoy my job at the center, and I know that it will be really hard to replace me at the center. I need some help!

I live in Thailand and anyone who has ever been will know that it is a gold mine.

You can get anything there and make good money.

So I want to find a shop, market, anyone who sells etc to tell me the item they want, then I find and give a good price.

I mostly prefer to apply for jobs through each company directly, but since I'm in dire need of a j.o.b. now, I've been lax and haven't paid attention to whether the poster is a staffing agency or the company itself. I went to a staffing agency a few months ago and had a bad experience... in short, the woman was rude and arrogant. Are staffing agencies even worth the bother? I have a meeting with another woman (different agency) on Monday and I'm afraid I'll be wasting my time by speaking to one of these personnel again. If you've had any experience with staffing agencies, please let me know.

I'm 17 and a half, with a good amount of money (for a teen...) in my savings account at Citibank, and I'm looking to opening a checking account.

I really have two questions; should I just wait until I'm 18 to open one so I won't need to make a joint account, and what, in your opinion, would be the best bank to do my checking at when I'm ready to open one? Thanks for the replies!
