hey guys, if anyone knows about financing please i need your help. My sister is trying to get a car, a 3-series sedan and the vehicle costs about 23,000. The guy at the used car dealership said that with a co-signer, who she has, my dad. My dad has about 780+ credit score and he wants to put $5,000 down. The guy said with a 72 month payment plan it will be 12% interest rate. Doesnt that sound alittle too high? even with my dad co-signing for her. btw were in CA if that helps.

Two months ago I was diagnosed with lyme disease. About a month after my diagnosis, I was too exhausted and in too much pain to work. I told my job that I needed to take some time off to rest and my doctor wrote them a letter. However, it's been three weeks now and I am still unable to go to work. Can someone explain to me how collecting unemployment or disability works? Or what I need to qualify? Or at least direct me to a website that could help? THANKS!

I am buying an older home and looking for ways to rule out black mold. The roof was replaced last year and the ceiling freshly painted. The crawl space is not accessable at this time. If there is a new roof, new paint, and no signs of new mold than is there still concerns? The owners say it was a rental....so they can not say if there was ever any black mold. The property disclosure indicates "surface mold"... Is there a differance?

I moved out of an apartment I had a cosigner with. She smoked marijuana 4 days out of the week with several friends. It was a horrible living situation so when a friend wanted to move in I was all about moving out! Well, at that time he wasn't going to be 18 for a couple months so he couldn't take over the lease but I was too desperate to care. Well, now (3 months after the lease ended) we are getting billed for this guy staying for an extra 3 days. What are my options legally? Do I have to pay for the result of my ex-roommates mistakes? I don't mind paying for my share of the damages but I believe I shouldn't have to pay for his mistakes since she wanted him to move in and she didn't care that he was on the lease either. This is in Michigan by the way.

I work in a retail store. Someone filled an application for employment and turned it in. He was called for job interview and he did well on the interview. So he was told by the manager that he is hired and he should come on Orientation on November 1st, 2007.

He showed up at the orientation and looked very determined. Then he was told that he give a call tommorow to let him know what his training schedule is. He agreed.

But he never called or never showed up since. He just came on orientation and it was over after that. How come?

He does not even show up to pick up his $25 check for the 3 and a half hours he showed up for, on orientation.

What might have happened and why he never responded after the orientation?

At least he could have called to explain what is going on.

TGI Fridays was the worst spot I have ever worked in. Ive been there for a month and learned alot and did the best job I could. Ive served before in gourmet so I know what I was doing.

But since these "tween snotty obnoxious servers decided to tell my boss "oh I don't think hes learning it" My boss fires me and says I don't think you're coming along. How would you handle it? luckily I have another job and only did this part time but the other servers weren't very sociable at all to me. What is the best way to leave? Im not going to stand there like a donkey and say Oh thank you for the opportunity.

I quit a job with a large company 2 months ago. They have continued to direct deposit paychecks into my account. I have not found another job as expected and I have used the money to live on. Other than request the money back, is there anything they can do? I know they can attempt to withdraw the money (its not there), but is there anything else?

Hey guys,

I didn't know where to ask about this, so I'm jus gonna shoot my question here. Hopefully you guys know how I should go about this.

I'm sending an $8000 wire transfer to some dude in the United States for an ultrasound machine. His company is called RC Medical and I looked it up and it's got a website and looks kinda legit.

But $8000 is big money. Is there a way to protect it from fraud, in case the guy takes the money and runs? Will my bank protect me? I don't want to do this over eBay or PayPal because of their fees and all that.

How can I make this go safely and smoothly without spending too much in transaction fees?

What are my options if he is a fraud?

My builder will pay my 5K or so closing costs if I use their mortgage company. Well, come to find out (6th months ago is why I got my first quote) the company is charging a pretty high interest rate.

Since they are paying my closing costs if I use them, could I refinance the house, let say in 6 months to a year, to another better company?
