I work for this guy doing data entry from home. I've only worked with him for three weeks now, and we were talking on the phone pretty often during the beginning, but we mostly communicate through e-mail. He told me to call him if I ever have any questions, and I haven't spoken to him over the phone in a week (just through e-mail). I haven't had any questions to call him for, but is this bad workmanship? I feel like the work relationship between us isn't as good and am afraid of him finding a better worker...

I am looking for a great tax filing website which will allow to file state and federal for absolutely nothing. Now if it has to be two different sites (one for each) that's fine. Where do you guys go to do this?

I am a realtor, and I have been very successful in B2B sales. I am looking to get a government job or a sales position with a high volume corporation. I keep hitting the wall because I do not have a college education. I am considering taking on-line courses at Strayer University. Does anyone know if taking an online course will help me or am I just spinning my wheels and money.

I opened up a Roth IRA in 2003, and have been contributing the max amount since this year. I recently just bought a house, and have more bills than before, but still on top of things with no revolving debt except the mortgage.

I want to invest more in my Roth, so the power of compounding will benefit immensely in the future. The thing is I am only 23, and am looking to buy a motorcycle and going on several trips. Living life is by far most important, but "Happiness does not buy you money" - Warren E. Buffett.

What yall think?

I want to eventually be in the music business. My dream job would be to become an A&R representative for a record label company, maybe even a president of one someday. Other possibilities would be tour manager, band manager, an advertising or marketing position within a record label company/music magazine company/music television company/etc.. I've also heard of a position in an area known as the artist development department in which you help market new artists/bands. Are there any specific schools out there somewhere which are well known for their music business programs? One record label company which I could really see myself working for would be Solid State Records. HM magazine would also be sweet to work for. I know that some schools specifically have "music business" programs/majors. To me this would seem like the best way to go. I just need to know if anyone knows which schools would provide me with the best results in education, environment, and then job placement.

Another one of my co-workers likes to boss people around and tell them what to do even though he's not a manager. I started finishing all my questions with Boss...like what do I do now boss? Where does this go boss? and he got offended. Does he have a right to get offended since he bosses everyone around like crazy?

This girl at my work called me a Wierdo and the worst person to work with because I never talked, on the 2nd day I worked with her. Now it's been a while and she says I'm her favorite person to work with and checks her schedule before coming in to see if I work with her and looks forward to working with me. What the hell happened?

I think they are shocking and can't understand how young people can afford to establish themselves. I read that the average price on a house is £ 1,7 mill. Shouldn't anything be done about this? What about those who are single or dependent on one income?

I have been introduced to a private placement program, but I do not know what it is, and how it can provide a good return on our investment. In the program, I be using a substantial amount of cash loan from some banks, and the cash supposedly can provide 100% return in one year. How true it is?

I am or was in the process of buying a house through a local bank. They told me what I needed to do with the $25,000 equity I had in my previous home to be able to purchase this one. I did it all exactly how it was needed according to the bank. Now, 2 days prior to closing the PMI or mortgage insurance came back at $600/mo almost, raising the payment by 25% and thus not affordable for us. After talking to a few more banks and not telling them the situation, they all told the PMI would be high in the beginning but this bank did not. Now, the builder or contractor of my new home has stock in the bank that he/she reffered me to and the loan officer has discussed our case with he/she in detail and revealed all of our previous problems to them. It's just very frustrating, this would be a new town for us and now word has gotten out about our problems and I know it wasn't us talking. This bank has upset us deeply. What can we do? Sue for Damages or Privacy Act or anything???

HELP!
Thanks

It's important that i make the right decision now as there must be no looking back once it's decided. So i need help! Which is better? Accountancy or pharmacy?
My parents feel that pharmacists are more sought after and have more job opportunities...but i think otherwise. Who is right?
I'm neutral to both courses so it doesn't matter which i take. It just a matter of prospects not interest nor passion.
I don't want to end up jobless after completing my studies. What do you all advice?
