Hi, I don't expect to get a huge amount of sympathy on this but here goes...

I am a salesman. I used to have a commission structure of 10% on the Year 1 revenue of a deal. They now want to reduce this to 5% and then have team targets.

Can they do this? They say it is non-negotiable but is this true? Do I have to accept these new terms? I have been working on one deal for the last 9 months and now I'll only get half the commission that I would have got?

Thanks in advance for any help.

I need a $5000.00 loan and was wondering if you dont have property or anything like that for collateral, if any place would accept a certain amount down like 800.00 - 1000.00 down? Anyone know of a place or if that can be done?

I work for company for 2 and a half years and now make 13.11 an hour (which btw is very good in alabama).... I have excellent benefits and health/dental insurance. I have a husband and two sons on my insurance along with life insurance for all of us. I was offered a job delivering mail with usps for 17.51/hr but there is no insurance. I would make more money, but....... i dont know.. My husband could maybe get insurance at his job but it would cost alot more a month.

what would you do?

i am thinking of buy a 2 br 2 bth townhouse in forida broward county is it a good time to buy or should i wait, the unit i am thinking of buy was selling for 225,000 in 2005 and now i am able to buy it for 180,000 considering that decline should i wait and watch price drop some more or should i just buy now because even if the price does drop on this unit and i wait i will still have to rent a place and that will cost me a min of 15,000 for the year so even if the price of the unit does drop i feel it will still be the same because i will be wasting money on rent. whats going on in the florida market are people buying or waiting , i really feel that the place i buy for 180,000 will not drop much more or is there a possiablty that the place i buy for 180,000 will only be worth 110,000 in a yrs time. please any advise will be helpful to me. thank you

I ordered an item from ebay from a UK based seller and paid a price including VAT. A few days afterwards I received a package from China containing the item. I contacted my seller and he told me that since he didn't have any in stock he ordered it directly from the supplier.

About a month later I receive a bill from customs. I phoned them and told them my contract is with a UK supplier and I've already paid all taxation. They said they've got to check if they've made a mistake and they'll call me in 10 days time.

Should I be concerned? Do I have to pay?

What is this new assessment, and $4,755 annual tax? Does anyone really ever own a home? A car? Isn't this all a mirage? A scam? I feel cheated. And the rate goes up every 2 years!

Hi. I really need some advice here. I have two children, a daughter of 13 and a son of 11 who has autism (he has just started attending his autism school on a residential basis, 4 nights a week home at weekends). Already he is very happy and settled there and we are so very relieved. They are an excellent school. As you can imagine I have put in a lot of time with my son over the years, fighting for the right education for him etc. Now I am left with me for the first time in a long long time! Its been very isolating having a special needs child, but I have started to build my confidence up and are applying for some jobs. I used to be a PA/Secretary before the children and had a very good career.

My husband thankfully has a good job, but I really do need to earn some money again and have some fulfillment in my life! I just do not know whether to go for it and go full time, or just part time!! I need to pay off quite a bit of debt too. Any advice would be really welcome!

I took out a personal loan for my brother for £6000 he said he would pay it back in full and intrest within 3 months 7 months have past and not a bean I have now learned he has a IFA. I worked it out if the loan goes the full distance he will owe me £8000+ but he just does not care, also he says after 5 years when he can sell his house the IFV will take any profit from it. Can I transfer the loan to his name or what can I do????

When do I put "1" and when do I put "0"? Like I said I am single with no children and I rent. All of the tax jargon makes little sense to me. Please help! I am starting a new job.
