If I had $10,000 in income at the end of a year, which would be wiser to do. (1) Purchase more inventory and if so, would I have to pay taxes on that? (2) Pay taxes on the income. (3) Purchase assets?
This is based on a company in Florida which buys and resales merchandise that is shipped mostly out of state.

I have had mice problems since I have moved in here last year. The complex would send out pest control who would set out traps but this wouldn't take care of the problems. Finally after I had gotten real rude and threatened to leave they sent out pest control who put poison down. This seems to have taken care of the problem so far but the thing is I am afraid that the mice will come back. My daughter is walking now and I don't want to take a chance of her running into a mouse. When I first complained management told me that I was the only one who complained so it didn't seem to be much of a problem. When I asked other tenants about mice they said that they had seen a few but they didn't want to cause problems so they didn't want to say anything. When I first complained and they ignored me I sent a certified letter to them to make sure that they had got the letter so I have evidence of my complaints (also letters from them addressing my problems) but they won't let me leave.

I have a friend who works for a very large international company that will not be named. She has been with them for several years, and is on a special contract. The employees on this contact receive 401K benefits. At some point in 2005, she volunteered to go work a natural disaster for several months. Apparently since she was not working his original job during this time she was not eligible for the 401K but the company paid it to her anyway.

Now-- when she returned to his original post several months later (after working for the same company the whole while)-- they had an accounting error and neglected to pay the 401K the first couple of months. After complaining for months about this $500 she filed a grievance.

Now-- the company has realized she wasn't supposed to get the initial $2500 he got while she was away, and they are taking THAT money back, along with everyone else's who was in the same situation. Can they do this? This money was from between 8-12 months ago.

Emerging markets are booming these days, tons of money has been exported by institutional investor to pocket handsome return.
A investment company runs 1000 of different funds some of which are exposed completely to emerging markets & other are 10% to 20%. World's know that these market are highly volatile and extremely risky but had performed well than other caps fund and indexes funds.
As an investment company, they had to manage the risk associated with these markets, so they invest millions of money in hedge funds and derivative markets. The significant question arise here is,how the fund manager of the company can optimize their portfolio under a large universe of hedge funds.

Recently I had a set aside judgement granted by the county court for a Bank of America credit card. I plan on providing the three credit reporting agencies with a copy of the signed set aside judgement but I want to know how this will ultimately effect my credit score.

In case your wondering why I'm asking this question my lawyer dropped the ball write at the end of this process and I had to contact the court myself to get the judgement signed.

One thing bugs me, my bank doesnt charge me any fees whatsoever as long as my account is in credit, so why do people use banks and or building societies that impose charges. Has anyone any idea what makes a person use a bank that charges when I have a high street bank that doesnt. I have banked with them for now for approx 23 years and never once had any charges been made to me, ok i am a canny scot who is very careful with my finances and have never overdrawn once even though i have an overdraft facility.
I dont want to be one of those people who spend like money is going out of fashion and worry about it later, but it gets out of hand, you lose your home, car, belongings the lot, its not for me, i am in poor health and could be dead within 10 years, so i dont say to myself whats it worth worrying, because if you are a decent family person being the breadwinner then you have to make sure that your family is provided for,

She will ask "did you do this?" "Did you get this done." In reference to my daily activities. And then after about a week of this we have a "meeting" where she tells me everything I have done wrong in the last month and it's all stuff like "your desk is messy when you're working" and "you forgot checks in the printer at 2:15 on the 16th." And then the next day everything's cool and she's cracking jokes and telling me how great I am. I don't get it. Is it me or is she just moody? How can I approach it? Do I just ignore it?

Hi! My husband and I are trying to move to Arizona in the next year and buy a house. This will be my first home. We both work full time jobs in California now. Any home loan advisors out there? Can you tell me how I can get approved/pre-approved for a full 30-40 year home loan when we have not yet gotten new jobs in the state we're planning on moving? One thing I heard is if we plan to rent out the property, then we can get approved for a loan. Please help!
