I'm asking which credit cards would you recommend for a college student, who sometimes has to do some spending with no cash... of course, leaving the credit card as the last resort.

But also a way to start building credit

my dad bought stocks in 1979 thru 1983 (100 shares each yr) of Walmart, Intel and preferred stocks of AT&T. In 1983, he had 550 shares of Watmart, 500 shares in Intel and 500 preferred stocks of AT&T.

he has just held on to them since then and has no idea what they are worth today specially the preferred AT&T shares. i could not help him much specially with preferred AT&T stocks that could have been giving him dividends.

also, he told me the last time he looked at his statements was 1999 and then his AT&T showed him having 750 shares which he thought was a mistake as he only bought 500 shares to start with.

would you know how much my dad's investments may be today as he sure can use the money as he is now retired.

I'm retiring from the military after 20 years and moving on to a second career (still about 20 years from ultimate retirement), and looking for the best plan for accumulating retirement funds. I expect to have considerably more income than my current standard of living and would like to invest the maximum possible in IRAs and similar vehicles with tax advantages.

I am married (wife is not employed outside the home) and will have three sources of income next year: my primary job will be salaried at $90K/year including an employer-matched (to 6% of salary) 401K plan; I'll have a $60K/year self-employed consulting contract (potential for Keogh?), and I'll receive $40K/year military retirement pension (unearned income). The sum AGI puts me over the limit for contributing to Roth IRAs, but I'm confused as to whether the 401K, Traditional IRA (for self and wife), or a Keogh plan are better, or can be used simultaneously. Assuming lots of $$$ to invest, where should I throw my money?

I scored a 791 out of 850 with Eqiufax in Feb. 2006

I just scored an 888 out of 990 with Experian Oct 2007

Do the 2 agencies have different rating systems or scales?

Has my credit score improved from Feb. 2007?

Experian said that I am "Prime" Plus and my Risk Grade is B. My Credit rating ranks higher than 85.15 of US Cosumers.

Is this a good credit rating?

Im 19 years old. I work for Verizon Wireless, i make $4,100/mo. 25% goes to 401K, $500 goes to HSBC online savings, $100 goes to E*Trade (just started). The $100 every two weeks in the e*trade account I would like to buy $100 worth of stock with and let sit. My goal is to find a stock like google, or msft.

Where could I better be investing the money that im saving? My goals are mostly long term. The $500 in HSBC is liquid and movable.

Basically, all of this money going away, other than the 401K is movable and liquid. Where should I be putting this for maximum long term return?

I'm an independent film-maker and am making a horror movie and want to know if you can use a movie title that's been already used before, but the movie is different then the one the people have already made using the title. Can I as long as I don't try and copyright it? Or as long as I have a differnent script? Or do I have to change the Name a little bit. The name I was going for was The Bloodshed, there have been a movie called Bloodshed, and The Blood Shed. Could I still use the name since it's a little different, since it doesn't have a space? I would still like to know if you can use it if it's already been takin. And if you came up with a movie title but there is a song with the same title can you still make your film with that title, and would I want to copyright it, and how do I copyright it? Or should I not copyright it? Please Help!!! Thanks!!!

what's the meaning of value of money in business language?someone says it depends upon exports which is a main source of reserves but then why the Japanies Yen is in decimal points even having more exports. I am not asking its spiritual,sociel or psychological meaning that money does not have any value as compare to good faith and love. I am just asking in real business world. Because in the world, currency value of different countries are different from one an others, why?

Have repeatedly been told cash deposits go directly into account. However, it doesn't show up in the account. Have run up nonsufficient funds with use of debit card. This has happened three months in a row. When contacting the bank, each time they have removed the charges from the account and have admitted fault. Is there a legal case against them?
