I'm paying between 1.5-2.0% on each transaction, i.e. 1.5% to buy and 1.5% to sell. (Please don't tell me to use an online broker - that is not my question.)

Up until last year I did not have a problem. Some of my mail had my physical address, and some my mailing address. My post office began stamping my physically addressed mail with a red "incorrect address" stamp. They will now often return the mail to the sender. I have been fighting with banks and credit offices to change my current physical address to my p.o. box. They will not send my bills or credit cards to my p.o. box! Because of this much of my mail is rerouted back to the business. I am being penalized with late fees because of this now. I have cancelled many of the cards, however I'm still having a rough time with my bank. I have been approved for loans, but when they send me the check it gets returned back to the bank. They will not accept I have a p.o. box, therefore I have had to cancel my approved loans. They cite that it's because of the "Patriot Act." I've tried to research this but I don't see where it says I don't have the right to get my mail at my address. Help!

I want my dad to have a job, but the only problem is he speaks only little English and understand some of it. He is very talent in math and physics. He has a lot of experiences of shoe designing. He worked in Nick, Adida, and Reebok company in China. I see him everyday saying that he can not find any jobs that match with him. Either English or college degree problem causes the unemployment. I wonder if you can help him to find a job that related with design of shoes, belt, etc. ( He is extremely well in this, math, and physics) I am very curious if he can be a math or physics teacher. What are the requirement. Maybe he should go to a two-year college and pass the teacher-certificate exam? Please help me!!!!!

As the computer is new, I think I need to pay some money for the export tax. But I don't know how much I need to pay, how and where can I pay it.
Is there any policy or statute for post something to China from USA?

I thought it was illegal to ask somebody about their marital status in either a job application or an interview. I also thought it was illegal to ask if an applicant has children. Please answer.

My ex-husband opened up at least two joint bank accounts that I never knew about, while we were separated. After racked up credit cards, he had his name removed off the account, claiming it was hurting his credit. So, we were officially divorced 2 weeks ago, and I'm left with the open accounts that I had nothing to do with.

I called the police because the fraud department told me I should make a police statment, and they wouldn't help... they just told me to get an attourney. HELP!

The CFO of Hankcock, Al Dipta, is trying to estimate the cost of equity of his company using the CAPM, for which he needs an estimate of the beta of the company's stock. He could use the estimate published in Value Line, but he would prefer to come up with an estimate of his own, as he feels he could get a more accurate estimate of the beta of a small airline such as his by regressing the company's historical returns on the returns on a select group of transportation stocks rather on a broad portfolio of stocks as done by Value Line analysts? Is this a good thing to do? why or why not?

Can someone help me to know the basics of the question?

I live in an old house in NH that was converted into condos. It has steam heat, so instead of each condo paying for its own usage, the heating bill get payed with a portion of everyone's condo fee each month (there's one thermostat for the whole building and individual radiators in each unit). We recently went from a flat condo fee to a rate based on the square footage of everyone's unit. My condo fee went up $30.00, but my neighbor's went up $112.00, because, besides her apt. she also owns the finished attic (the door to the attic is in her apt.). She's angry about her fee increase and says she should only have to pay based on the footage of her living space, not the attic. The attic is finished, but has no radiators and has a low ceiling. (It would make a good room for a child). But heat still rises from the rest of the building into the attic, keeping it warm, and someone will have to pay for it. All the other units think she should pay for the attic's space, as do I. Should she?

An individual plans to invest in Stock A and Stock B. The expected returns are 12% and 18% for Stock A and Stock B respectively. The standard deviations are 6% and 12% for Stock A and Stock B. The correlation between A and B is .15. Find the expected return and the standard deviation of a portfolio with 80% of the investor's funds in Stock A.

Does anyone have a clue on how to do this? Can someone help?

Thanks

She called to tell me she was overdrawn on her checking account and has "no ideal" what happened to the money she was saving to pay her rent for November. I have set down with her in the past and went over all her bills and she should have enough money to cover expenses as well as a few specials treats for the month. She goes to college and works but lives on her own (closer to work & college). I give her $150 a month toward rent (even paid it a few times) but she still can't make it. I asked her to bring her checkbook & statement so we could go over it and she refuses - just wants me to help her out. I am concerned because she can't/won't explain where the money has gone - including the extra money she got for living expenses through a college loan. I told her that I would not help her out beyond what I had committed to ($150) until she gives me some explanations to where the money is going - I am on a tight budget also. Am I being unfair? She is 19 & knows it all.
