My father wants to leave me the value of some property he is selling ($90,000), and since it's all he owns and he was going to leave me the property in his will anyway, he says it's inheritance and we know people who have left their children inheritance while they're still alive. So my question is, how would we claim this as inheritance and not a 'gift' under the IRS? Do we need to fill out a form? Does he have to be dead for this to take affect? Is there a limit on how much you can claim as inheritance?!

A majority of large corporations now self fund their health plans. Smaller companies, some with fewer than 100 employees, are moving to this trend too. This means the corporation you work for is paying for you and your families medical costs.

Anyone else concerned that this trend is both an invasion of privacy and puts a target on your back if you or any one of your family members has serious medical bills?

You're running XYZ, Inc and employ John Doe for an annual salary of $75,000. You provide a medical benefit of $10,000 and John picks up the other $5000 of the annual premium. With 401K matching, & other benefits, he cost XYZ, Inc. $100,000 a year. John's wife, Jane Doe has a chronic illness... costing about $50,000 annually.

XYZ, Inc. knows John is costing them $150K, not $100K. Does John have a target on his back?

I have five credit cards...just closed one today making it four. Is it bad that I just closed one? I never use it because it has interest. How many cards should I have? My FICO is 676. My first credit card was a little over a year. I am really young (20) and that is why I havent really have a credit history.
