I am getting ready to go to college. I am going to go to WVU in Morgantown.(already got accepted) However I dont want to live on campus so i will probably try and get an apartment in or very near to Morgantown. Any advice on websites to find one easily, and what are some tips for finding more affordable ones? Also, depending on where i live, a car may not be necessary all the time because i could possibly walk or take the PRT (experimental Personal Rapid Transit in motown) so i could save on gas which is gonna hit 4 dollars by the time i go more than likely.

I am asking on behalf of a friend who has lived in his Seattle, WA apartment for 7 years. Last year he went to sign his next 1 year lease and the manager suggested he sign a 2 year lease so his rent couldn't be raised during that time. He did so and since then a new manager has taken over. There should be one year left on this two year lease, but today (Nov 19) he received a letter stating that he has to be out by the end of this month. This is in 11 days! The letter states that the length of the lease is invalid but doesn't say why. It gives him until the end of the month to be out so that they can renovate the unit. Can they do that? There has been no claim that the lease was broken by the tenant, simply that "it is invalid" and they want to renovate. Do they need to provide him more time, or money to move? He would like to stay, at least for the year remaining on his lease, but doesn't want to live in a hostile environment either. Anyone have any advice? Washington State

I calculated on a website that if I contribute $15,000 a year to 401k and my employer matches some of it, I should have about 13-17 million in 40 years. Is this really true? I use a couple of oneline calcualtors.

So I met with HR today for the company that I've applied for. Went on several interviews, and they finally decide to extend an offer to me.

They didn't really give me much time to sit on it and think about it. I was suppose to accept the position at that very point of day. At the moment, it sounded like a good job but when I factor in the commute (SJ to San Francisco), and salary, it's not worth it.

Employment is contingent on background check and drug test (within 48 hours).

I'm reconsider and do not want this job. What should I do?

On 10/1/07 I signed my lease and paid deposit of $875. At the time I signed my lease my landlord & I went over the issues and repairs that needed to be done. All repairs were to be completed by 10/12/07, my move in date. On 10/12/07 I paid a partial rent of $500 and got the keys. Upon entering the home, none of the repairs had been made and I discovered the the main water shut off valve was broken and water was not getting to the house. I went 2 1/2 weeks without running water, after many attempts to contact him. It was not until i threaten to call the City on him that he repaired the water valve. On 10/25/07 the valve was repaired and i then noticed and informed him that something was wrong with the hot water heater and i have no pipe work under my kitchen sink, so my kitchen sink does not work. As of 11/19/07, i still dont have any hot water and my kitchen sink is still not functional. I think he has started the eviction process because I refuse to pay him the full rent of 875

I am thinking what if one of the holding companies like hathway DECIDES TO BUY EVERYTHING like they buy out Wal-mart then use those profits and TAKE OVER STARBUCKS then Microsoft then apple, etc. etc. I WOULD BE LIKE WATER GOING down a hill, and is it possible? I was thinking about it and it probably isn't for human and ECONOMIC REASONS but I am not sure, are you? IT would mean way less trading AND MAY MAKE IT HARD TO PROFIT OFF STOCK INVESTMENTS. OPINIONS PLEASE????

I submitted a resume to a customer service call center job. They liked my resume and offered me an over the phone interview. Since she liked my over the phone interview, I was asked to come in for an in person interview. I went to the interview and was told to complete another application. So I did everything that was asked and I thought everything went well during the interview and was told to here back in a couple of days. I never heard back, but I got an email saying that they thank me for submitting my online application but they have no opportunities that match my experience or qualifications.

My question is, if I didnt have the right qualifications to begin with, why did they take me through all of this. And what could I be doing wrong. My resume is good, I have lots of experience and good communication skills. Also I have been interviewing for government jobs as an office clerk and can't get hired with them either despite the fact that I used to work for the gov. as clerical

I am being audited by the IRS for tax years 2004, 05, and 06. Most people who have had taxes prepared by my accountant are in the audit process with the IRS as well. Much speculation is that the CPA is in trouble with IRS? My issue is that every person who has been to the IRS office meeting so far has had to repay the IRS thousands of dollars. I have talked to people who are paying anywhere from $4,000 to $9,000 to far. My question is that when people go to an accountant in good faith that he/she knows what they are doing and this is the magnitude of what has happened, it is obvious that there is a problem with the CPA. If this was just a problem with my taxes, I would not be so upset but this is a problem with a large number of the CPA's clients. Several people have went to look for the CPA to speak to the person but have been unable to locate. I am curious to know if this is criteria for a class action law suit or something that would be legititmate cause for law suit at all.
