I heard some time ago that if a house was standing empy the local council can take it over for a period of 7 years - In my present job I have to live where I work so my house is standing empty - is it safe from the council?

I have knowledge of a woman using drugs. She works for the county as a family counselor, which entails going to the families homes or to seeing the children at the schools. I believe she poses risk as a family counselor. Should I report it to her employer or not ???

For my life career I'd like to have a job that must include creative writing or story writing. I live a smaller sized town with a population of about 2000 people. The biggest thing in this town is Wal-mart. I will NOT move from my town, which would be away from my family. I'd love to work for a magazine but then I'd have to move which I will not do. I'm not interested in becoming a teacher. ANY SUGGESTIONS ON JOBS?

We were married just a few months ago, and are trying to figure out if we need to change what we claim on our W-4's. We're each claming 1 right now. I make $38,000 a year, and my husband makes $37,500. I'm not sure that it makes a big difference, but any advice would be appreciated! Thanks!

Buy High, Sell Higher


How many times have you heard the phrase, "buy low, sell high"? This is the conventional wisdom in the investment world, but research shows you shouldn't be concerned with that part about buying low. Let's walk through this one step at a time. Research shows that the best-performing stocks make new highs before they make their major leaps in price. Moreover, stocks at new highs tend to continue moving higher, while stocks making new lows tend to continue to move even lower.

This is a concept many investors find difficult to accept. They assume it's too late to buy a stock that's reached an all-time high. But the great paradox of the stock market, as Investor's Business Daily Founder William O'Neil calls it, is "What seems too high and risky to most investors is likely to continue rising. And what seems low and cheap usually goes down."

Think about it. If a stock goes from $15 to $50 it has to reach new highs at $16, $17, $18 and so on. Stocks making new lows, on the other hand, manifest inherent weaknesses.

Just by applying the laws of supply and demand you can see why new highs are important. When stocks advance, they're demonstrating growing demand as investors raise their expectations about the company. On the other hand, stocks making new lows are usually afflicted by just the opposite: sagging expectations. Yes, there's plenty of stocks in the bargain basement, but they're there because the merchandise, so to speak, isn't hot.

Some stocks may have very strong fundamentals or great stories, yet they don't go up because there's little investor interest. So while you wait for a stock to be discovered -- if it ever does -- other stocks are moving into the spotlight. The spotlight, in a way, is the new-highs list, such as the one that appears daily in IBD and is explained later.

Stocks reaching new highs tell you professional investors are moving in and pushing prices higher

do you pay 40% on gains over and above your allowance in the uk regardless,

Or - If the gain does not bring that tax years income into the higher tax bracket do you only pay 22%ish instead of 40%

If anyone has any advice as to how to do this, I would surely appreciate it! I would like to manage properties that I do not own. I don't want to actually own anything other than my home at this time. When my husband and I were renting, we rented from a lady whom managed properties.

What type of education do I need? What type of start-up money do I need? How would I market myself to potential home owners who want to rent out their homes?

Thanks for any information!
