Business & Finance - 13 January 2007

I know I'm able to claim a loss up to the amount of money I won on my taxes. I also have a record I've kept of my Winnings/Losses. I am hoping that the fees on the cash advance that I took out at the casino (which are quite a lot) are also considered part of the loss. Anyone know??Thank you!

The situation is, I'm new to my job and I have a co-worker named "Barney" who when I first started working there saw me drawing the word sex with colorful magic markers at my desk and told me he could help me with that. I said yes but I told him I was very skeptical since we work together. He promised not tell anyone. I even wrote him a letter that was very sexual and told him not to tell anyone including his best friend one of the female supervisors. We did our thing once and it was terrible and thats when I realized I had made a mistake this was a month ago. Yesterday he got into a dispute with my other coworker that I'm friends with because he was using the computer at her desk and she needed it. He told her even if you was bleeding on herself he wouldn't cover her post anymore and since I was laughing too, he would snitch on everyone he sees on the internet. Then he asked me whats up with the hotel again and tried to record the convo on a cellphone to play for my coworkers.

will I owe anything later? I want to claim exemption, and I don't plan on filing for a return later, so will this be ok?

I'm single without any issues such as mortage, and about to start a part-time job. I could really benefit from having less money taken out.

If this is too risky, how about claiming 2?

Thanks for any advice!

Close out everything? Buy the call back, even at a loss? Roll it forward and hope? Roll it to a higher strike by doubling?

I have my information in my tax software, I will not own any taxes. Should I still do the deduction part (i.e. student loan, daycare, etc)? Most to of the money that I get comes from my financial aid; in addition, I even have a credit from the IRS, which is the reason I am going to file. I just want to know if it is worth the extra time to file for deduction part if I own $0 to the IRS, and I even going to get a credit.
By the way, my income for employer was between 5K and 6k.

I Babysit On A Regular Basis (2-3 Times A Week) ... And I Get About $15.00 Per Hour To Watch An 8 Year Old, 5 Year Old, And A 2 Year Old...

A Few Years Ago, When I Lived In Canada - I Got Paied $35.00 An Hour To Watch A 6 Year Old, And A 1 Year Old...

(BTW - Thats Not What I Charge! That's How Much They Wanted To Pay Me!)

Most Of My Firends That Work At Stores & Stuff Get About, $5.00 - $7.00 An Hour...

Am I Being "Over-Payed"??

Because, Every Time I Got To Babysit For Someone New - They Say "How Much Do You Charge An Hour?"
And, I Just Say "It's Up To You! It Doesnt Matter!")
Should I Not Say That? Will They Take Advantage Of Me??

What Do You Guys Generally Get Paid To Babysit? (Per Hour)

I Babysit Every Weekend - And, 1 Or 2 Times A Week... (And, For Each Day Is Usually Between 5:00PM - 12:30AM) So, Thats's About 7-8 Hrs Each Time... Which Is Like, $120 A Night...

I've Been Babysitting Regularily For The Past 5 1/2 Years... (I'm 16 Now)

What SHOULD I Be Getting Paid??

I only have a bank account, where I can deposit and withdraw money at a cash point and also internet banking. I do not have a debit or credit card, and I'm currently ineligible for obtaining one. Does this mean I am unable to set up a Paypal account to buy online? I've tried e-mailing Paypal, but they haven't responded yet. *impatient* I obviously don't want to sign up with them before I'm 100% certain.

Thanks
