I realize that's a very general question, but I'm just wondering about the basics. I also know the degree name is rather self explanatory, but it's a bit TOO self explanatory for me. :o) What does it involve (the career aspect of.. what in general do business majors do as a career?). Thanks..

My Partner contracted out of the state second pension (S2P) some years ago. He has had a letter from the pensions company (Scottish Mutual), telling him that he may be worse off if he remains contracted-out, and he should think about contracting back in.

as pensions are very confusing. Could someone explain the difference between contracting out, and being contracted in? What are the implications of staying contracted out as he is, or choosing to contract back in?

He is 46, works full time.

I plan to go to different ad agencies and hand out my resume. I was wondering, should I dress business casual (i.e. slacks and a nice button down shirt nicely manicured) or should I go full throttle and put on a business suit? REMEMBER it is quite hot outside?

I found out my FICO score is 649. The worst thing in my credit report was I missed some payments on a credit card for 3 months about a year ago. Also, I had a lot of open accounts, but I don't really owe much money anymore. So anyway, is a 649 a really bad score and what kind of FICO number should I be trying for?

My boyfriend is a plumber, who does strictly new homes, he started as an hourly and now his employer is changing to piecework. However, the employer wants to hold money from his pay in case something happens to the job. My question is first, is this leagal?, Is it right, and is it a common practice?

It is critical to a responsive and robust economy that the USA maintain the current system of tax incentives balanced by tax rates. How else can the government provide economic stimuli when called for?

However, it is high time for some radical changes. Here a few ideas for your comments.

1. Increase the corporate rates by 25% (there has not been in increase in these rates for many years), and eliminate the current double-taxation of corporate profits by making dividends either tax exempt or subject to credit offset for taxes paid at the corporate level.

2. End all estate taxes--another flagrant example of double taxation and a Marxist concept to be sure.

3. Reinstate "Income Averaging" (remember good ol' Schedule G?). People who are working hard to advance themselves should not be penalized by having to pay taxes at the same rates as people who have been at given income level for many years. 5-year income averaging used to be the law and it is needed again.

I have an interview tomorrow at a bank. How should I dress? I don't want to dress up too much or I'll feel overdressed and insecure. I also don't want to be underdressed. Is it ok to wear a pair of black dressy pants, black heels and a nice top or should I go for a suit and feel overdressed? The HR woman who will be interviewing me said the interview is professional dress. What exactly is that?

I won $500 in this online hockey pool last year and they said that because I was a non-resident (US company run pool), they would have to withhold 30% of the winnings. I fill out a W-8 and they give me $350. Can I (should I, or is it worth it to) reclaim the $150 easily? not so easily? etc... would like to find out. Thanks!

The check was issued to me last year and I cashed it. The insurance company discovered they had issued it to me by mistake and they asked me to refund them the money. I did. I would prefer that they contact the IRS and notify the IRS that I did not actually receive any $. Is it possible to issue a 1099 with a negative amount? I kind of need to know this bc the ppl at the insurance co. don't seem to know. I do not earn enough income to claim a deduction from returning the $ to the insurance company (e.g. I have run into the minimum alternative tax where I still have to pay some taxes regardless of expenses/deductions). I am in the United States. Thanks.

My roommate and I have lived in an apartment complex together for 3 years. She got engaged last summer and so when we signed our lease this year we knew she would be moving out a month early. We found someone to sublet her room and pay the last month's rent. But neither of us made a 60 day written notice that we will not be renewing our lease and we are now being charged $675 for that month. She had already moved out when I discovered the error and put in the notice. But since she is gone and I will be the last one to leave, she thinks that I should be responsible for paying (after all she asked me verbally if there was anyhting she needed to do and I said no). We recieved a letter with the information from the complex, but she opened it and I never paid attention to it. She never mentioned anything about it to me. Is she legally responisble to pay her half of the charges or can she stick me with the entire cost?

My husband and I had great credit (above 750) until 2 months ago. Both of us lost our jobs and our savings couldn't float us. We moved in with my parents about 3 weeks ago to help, and now we're both working again at dependable jobs. (He had previously been self employed so there was never a steady paycheck.) We have a baby on the way and really need to get out of my parent's house. Unfortunately, the 2 jobless months left us high and dry credit-wise, and in a few short weeks it has plummeted from the high 750s to mid 400s.

It didn't take very long to ruin our credit; how long will it take to fix it, now that we're on time again, etc? Will it take just a few weeks? Or are we going to be waiting years before we can buy a house?
