My husband works full time and is going to school full time to get his MBA. We have 3 children which I stay at home full time with. My hubby has 1 year down and 1 to go until he is finished. He has a 4.0 and is just doing AWESOME. But going into year two I feel a little run down and discouraged by the extra work on me as well and the lack of family time. I wonder whether all this hard work we are doing is really going to pay off and how much. Right now my hubby is a freight coordinator and making about 50k. How much is his salary possibly going to improve. And when he is done...should we hire a head hunter. How much is all this really going to payoff in the long run?

i tried to order something through Paypal (which i do all the time), but the transaction didn't go through and it said that my card was denied by my credit card issuer. I didn't cancel my card or anything and i don't think i went over my limit (though i can't remember what my limit is, since it's a starter card and may be lower than i thought). But if i did go over my limit,what do i do? If i pay it off, will my card get turned back on or would i have to get a new one? And if i didn't exceed my limit...?

Unfortunately, I live in a basement apartment. The landlordes don't live here they rent the house out. It is so cold down here and theres no heat. I called the landlored and he told me to tell the people upstairs so I did and they put the heat on for like a couple of days and then turned it off. Tonight it's freesing and when I asked them to turn the heat on they said no because they're warm even though before they said they could easily close there vents. It's October 22nd I live in Canada and i'm freezing. What should I do? When I call the landlored they tell me to work it out with the people upstairs and when I talk to them they say they won't put on the heat. Legally it has to be atleast 22 degrees celcius as of September 1st right now it's like 10 degrees. Should I call the landlord and tenant act or should I give it a couple more days?

I was a co-signer on a second mortgage about three years ago with my soon to be ex-husband, and I ended up getting really tired of this man and I moved out and got my own place and after I moved out of the house he just let the house go and it was forclosed on just recently, will the mortgage company come after me for payment, I am really worried because I really can't afford to be getting my check garnished because I have children to take care of.

My boyfriend co-signed on a loan a while back for a girlfriend that he had at the time. They have since split up and she has married. She is the main account holder and promised to re-finance the loan when they split, but has not followed through. Since then she has stopped paying on the loan, but continues to own and drive the vehicle while he makes the payments to keep the loan company from coming after him. She has recently (within the last 6 months) remarried. Would he, under Ohio law, still be responsible for the payments if both the new husband and main account holder work and can truly afford to pay, but refuse to? Also, can the loan company garnish the co-signer's wages to retrieve the debt if the main account holder and her husband have income? If I were to marry the co-signer, would the debt transfer to me as well (tax returns seized and such) if not paid? Is there any way for him to get out of this contract short or him keeling over?

I have to file a complaint against the selling agent for a home I bought (closed) where he didn't ensure the pest clearance was complete prior to escrow close and now I have $20K in pest work that needs to be done. I wouldn't have bought the house if I knew it was this bad! I'm planning on going through the CA Dept of Real Estate to complain, but have no idea what to expect. Anyone have something similar happen?

What money would this equal to in worth?
People always say...you can make more money in Tx or Fl...
but owning a house and two cars here is worth something I'd have to buy if I lived anywhere else. I'd have to leave the vehicles here for the rest of the family to use.

So how much more would I have to make to have exactly what I have AND be ahead?
I feel like "I got it going on!"
I think I'd have to make lie 5 X's as much. Am I right or wrong?

I have been at my job for 7 months now and I love my job and everything that I do but, I have had a problem with the ONLY 2 employees that work in the office with me, they make it so obvious that they are having an affair. Both of them are married and his wife is even is friends with her! It really makes me uncomfortable and they have increasingly made all of this more obvious. The man in this affair and is my direct boss and her direct boss. Because of the affair she has free rein and can make any and all of the decisions. She goes and gets her hair and nails done during the day, can come in and out as she pleases and I just don’t see how this is fair to me when I feel like I work so hard but will never even get recognized because I am not sleeping with him.
It all became obvious to me when I noticed how well they knew each other and could tell me things that you normally wouldn’t hear coworkers knowing about each other such as, He (her talking about the boss) claims to have the softest lips ever and swears it’s because he doesn’t wear chap stick. One day the boss man asked the other woman if she would help him find a file upstairs in the storage. So they went out and closed the door and disappeared for 10mins returned with nothing in hand and she went straight to the bathroom. Next I walked by her office and glanced over to see him massaging her shoulders. He is always in her office and it doesn’t sound like they are talking sometime whispers. Another time I walked to my desk on a Monday morning and didn’t notice anything until she walked in the door (an Hour late) and asked what was on my wall. When I looked around there were two shoe prints. My legs are not long enough to touch the wall when sitting on my desk my feet are only a couple of inches from touching the wall. (She is way taller than I am) The fact that I didn’t notice but she did the sec. she walked in make me wonder. Today, to make a long story short, they began flirting while talking about something that I was going to purchase for the office. While in conversation with me they began talking about (exact words) “ (her)flavored paper towels, (him) a thing that slides into the other thing to make it work, (her) he can pin on the wall” , more was said it’s just too much to say.

Basically I just want to know what I can do to get this to stop. I do work for a big company (nationwide) but I know that we don’t have one person to go to for Ethics Issues. Also both of them have been there a while and I am the newbie and the fact that I am in a different “field” of the company. So they know everyone better than me and I don’t want to try to talk to someone at corporate that likes them and will tell them.

PLEASE HELP ME! I don’t know how to go about this and it is really affecting me.
