I am a big fan of SBSP and I wanted to know if Nickelodeon or his creator have business cards featuring him, b/c I would definitely buy it. I know credit cards feature popular logo's and character's and I would like to get some cards that do the same. Great conversation starter.

I've seen this in other gold currencies, too, and I don't understand it, when an ounce goes for $650 plus.

I worked with a realtor last year and he was very unprofessional. After he sold me my house I needed to ask him some questions regarding paperwork he never gave to me and I also wanted to ask him about damage to my home. I feel that he completely changed after he sold me my house and didn’t care any more about the transaction. Is there a realtors association I can report him to? He works for Century 21 and his manager did not return any of my calls either!

I brought my first home last year and my home inspector missed several key things in my home. How do i go about taking action against him? He said he would come back out but he has not returned any of my calls and its been over a month now. I have had my house for several months now. I am very upset. I did not notice these things until i started doing repairs to my home recently. i think some of these things he should have noticed.

My fiancee has the higher gross income. We have 2 children together and we are trying to figure out the most beneficial way to file our taxes for 2006. It looks like the best way is for me to claim our 2 children, even though he has the higher adjusted gross income. With me claiming the children and using H&R Block online tax software I get a substantial amount more money back than he would. Therefore, am I permitted to claim the 2 children instead of him and claim them for the EIC? I just want to make sure that we file everything correctly. Thanks for any help in advance.
PS: We even used the IRS EIC Assistant to figure out the EIC information for us too and it matched the H&R Block software results fairly accurately. It looks like it should be fine to file this way but I just want to be safe that we are filing properly to ensure maximum benefits.

I really want to move from the apartment I live in. the first year i lived here i had no problems, so I resigned my lease. After that, I have had someone break a window on my car and really make me feel uncomfortable here. It seems like it is nothing but problems now. I just wanted to know if I could pay like one month in advance and leave?

I have 2 rental properties. One that will be profitable this year and one that will definitely not. Will the losses on one wash/negate the gain on the other or is the gain taxed as income and the loss just deducted. Please help. Thanks!

Say I buy stock online through TD Ameritrade, Sharebuilder, or what have you, not their IRA accounts, just their standard ones for stocks. Let's say I invest $100 in Apple stock, and in 6 months, it grows to $110 (just to keep things simple). At that 6 months, can I withdraw all the $110 from my account (of course, there might be fees and commissions too, but I'm just asking if I can withdraw all, or just the $10 that I made).

I inherited a small commercial building and need to rent out the space immediately. A prospective tenant who wants a 3 or 5 year lease with options to extend also wants a few other things like:

1) Two months free rent to start
2) no lease increases at all for the length of the initial lease
3) an out clause for early lease cancellation
4) a shower installed without permits since they have to pay for the improvement.
5) tranferability to a new tenant if they are forced to shut down before the lease expires.

I'm willing to negotiate and compromise, but what's fair these days in the land of commercial leasing?

I want to sell some stock in my Roth and recognize some capital gains. I also want to immediately buy the stock back in a regular brokerage account. Are there any rules against this? If not, seems like a great idea to lock in those gains in an account where you don't pay any capital gains tax.

If you are allowed to do this, it seems like you can abuse it. Example: in illquid stocks with a wide bid-ask spread, one can sell and buy at the same time using one's own tax-advantaged account and regular brokerage account-recognizing the gains in the IRA and the losses in the regular one.
