They used to live next door but moved out-of-state and gave no address, only phone number. They have family that picks up checks and cuts the lawn but we don't have their numbers OR addresses... I would think that we would be within our rights to have either an address for them or a phone number for the in-town family for prompt payment and reporting of problems...

It appears that retailers who issue Western Union Money Orders don't necessarily have to cash them. I have been everywhere in my town to find a place that will cash this piece of paper. I don't have a bank account because I was under the impression that money orders were used mostly for people who don't have accounts with banks. I have urgent bills to pay. If you have any ideas it would be very helpful. I live in

Right now, boomers are preparing for retirement. Most are earning in their peak years or near their peak income levels. They are pumping more money than ever into the market to pay for their retirements.

The ratio of people pulling money out of the market to fund their retirements in comparison with the people putting money into the market to save for their future retirements is better than it will be for at least the next three generations, most likely more.

In the next five to fifteen years, the ratio of people paying into the market to save for their retirements in comparison to the people taking out of the market to pay for their retirements is going to change drastically. The draw on the market will increases drastically over the savings rate to finance retirement. This will be a historical first for the stock market.

My neighbor and I babysit kids together in our neighborhood. People think this is great because there are two of us. People normally pay us each $5 an hour. I'm 14 and my friend is 12. Is this the right amount of money? We babysat 3 kids together for three hours and we each got only $15 each. I don't really think this is enough. Do you? I really need more money because my family is on a tight budget. What should I charge per hour (or per kid) and what am I supposed to say to the people that I babysit? Am I supposed to say something like: I charge ____ per hour and you're not paying enough? What should I say? And what should I charge? Please help!!!

I happened to pass by yahoo finance and found a strange thing about microsoft. It is maintaining a huge negative retained earning in its balance sheet. Normally a well-run company has a positive retained earning in its balance sheet,
like Motorola who has 8Billion retained earning. Microsoft makes more than 5Billion more profit than Motorola every quarter. But why does it keep a negative retained earning? What's the reason behind it?
