I am planning on filming an online show about punk rock music with my two best friends here in Los Angeles. We have been doing business as Karma Productions but have not made it official. If I register us as DBA (doing business as) Karma Productions I believe it will be one name on the DBA and that means taxes will be unfairly put upon just one of us and just one of us can enjoy any future success with the show legally and put the others in the dark. We don't have the resources to incorporate yet and we really need to start filming with this record company. Can we just do business under Karma Productions and state that it is three individuals and list each of our names in the deal memo we have with the record company? Any insight into the law or this situation?

Currently, my company is called Patrice Studio Images (PSImages). However, i need a better branding/marketing name. I do professional photography, specializing in weddings, maternity, newborn, family, fashion, etc.

So while I love Three peas in a pod or Everafter Photography, I don't want my name to be targeted to only one of the types I shoot. Ideas??

If you are local and you name my company, I'll do a free photoshoot of your choice.

I come from a upper middle class family & guess in some ways it seems as such I have to ask why do people making over $100,000 a year complaint so much. According to the tax code it seems anyone making from $30,651 to $74,200 pays 25%, anyone making $74,201 to $154,800 pays 28% tax on income, anyone making from $154,801 to $336,550 pays 33%, & anyone making over $336,551 pays 35% income tax yet people like me making around $30,300 pay 15% but if I get a raise of even a little bit my tax jump would almost double yet the tax different between the three highest levels changes about the same as my just jumped.

I'm all for people pulling their own weight & paying taxes but explain how the three lowest tax brackets change 15% a jump of 5% from the lowest to the next level & then a 10% jump to the middle. Someone making $40,000 pays about $10,000 in taxes leaving them only $30k while someone make 3x more at $100k paying 35% still has $65,000 left to live on for making 3 times as much.

I work at a new facility, and I was hired for a specific job which requires four years of college. In the healthcare field. And after I had been working at this facility for a month, they approached me and told me I had to take my own car and drive to other facilities to drop off specimens. The rumor was that anyone refusing would be fired. We complained because our car insurance would not cover us if we crashed (and this is during the over-night hours when you're tired, and there are drunks on the road, in a high crime city area). So now they gave us a company van and told us it would only be temporary that we would have to do this. But once again the story has changed and they are not hiring full time curriers or hiring on site staff to examine the speimens instead of taking them to other facilities.
My issue being that the bad weather months are approaching, and if there is a storm or icy roads, and I refuse to take these runs, can they fire me? i feel like i'm being used.

Recently I won a $15,000 home kitchen package, though will be unable to afford the taxes the prize will accumulate. One part of the prize alone totals $10,000. If I donated that item to a charity or non-profit, would that write-off be enough to cover the taxes on the rest of the items?

I placed a $5000 down payment on a new home and cancelled. Never gave them a loan committment and cancelled before they started building the house. I felt my sales guy was dishonest and found out later that he got fired. Now they are telling me i need to hire a mediator. Where do I find a mediator and how much do they cost?

Hi. Can anyone recommend some popular and sound personal finance software? I would go for MS money or Quicken but neither of them have support in the UK. I don't want to connect to the Internet for this and I don't run a business- just home use. Thanks very much!

1) How should I dress? Suit or formal pant, shirt, and tie? Would a suit be too much in California? Remove the goatee or is it okay?
2) What types of questions will they ask me? For example, what types of teamwork questions and in technical questions will they just ask me "do you know this?" or will they give me a situation or problem and ask me how to solve it? The position is for a Handset Field Test Engineer-any of you having experience with this type of interview or know anything please give me any suggestions that would help me with my onsite interview. Your help is very much appreciated!!!

I just got offered a sales rep job from Vector Marketing and I have an interview coming up. I was wondering if anyone had any advice about getting a job with this company because there seems to be some skepticism on some websites I found, and I would hate to be another college student getting sucked into a scam.

I am a stay at home mom with 5 children, one in diapers and eating infant formula and baby food.

My husband thinks that $200-$300 per month is more than enough to supply the entire family with food, baby items, clothes, health & beauty items, household cleaners & other items.

I have showed him statistics on what average households spend, I have showed him grocery receipts even with my coupons, nothing works. I really need a specific budget and to know a certain time each month when I will get the money so that I can plan on what to spend depending on sale ads.

Right now I have to beg him for money when we run out of things, and then I'm just buying things when they are not even on sale because I have to have them right away.

He believes that the man is the head of the household, and a woman should not have any say in the finances. I understand that I don't work, and I have even asked to get a night job, but he wants me here to take care of the kids.

Any help??

I owe a bank some money, and it was years ago when I was younger. I had started working for a company and because I had failed to appear by phone, which was bologna because when they sent me the letter the phone # they had was wrong and they knew my real # because they had called me previous times, they started to garnish my wages. I was pregnant at the time and after having my baby I had to quit because my paycheck was so little and I have two girls, and daycare is expensive. I own nothing and have no money. I sent them a sheet with questions about my finances and didnt hear from them for 3 months. Now they send me a letter saying that they will continue garnishing wages from the company I quit working for. But why when I sent them a certified mail of the sheet showing I quit and have no money. I am confused, any advice?
