i am 25 years old and have been out of college for 3 years now. I am a cpa in san antonio and have been doing very well for the past three years. I really want to buy a corvette z06 within the next three months, and would like to hear the opinion of people that are out in the real world like myself. I bring in 4200 dollars a month net, and will be getting a raise next april, when i will net around 5000 dollars. I have my own house and have 26 in savings, and another 30k in mutual funds, and about 10k set aside for the car. I also have a 300zx that is in great condition for a trade in(ask dealer for a quote, they said 8-9k, trade in) My father thinks it would be a bad move and would stretch me to thin. I know it would make money tight, but i am single with no relationship in the works, so all the money i make goes towards me. Also i have 23k in retirement already. would someone in my position purchase a 65k car?

I am a flight instructor and I am classified as an independent contractor with my flight school. I am not disputing the fact I am an independent contractor, I've signed papers declaring this and I receive a 1099 for wages. I would like to know if I can write off my driving expenses to and from the airport? I drive an hour to the airport and an hour home each day (all highway, a peaceful drive). I have a home office where I fill out logbooks, schedule flights, email students, make lesson plans, stay current with the ever changing aviation regulations, etc. I use my office quite often for work. How could I set this situation up so I can lessen the punch of high fuel costs by deducting my business commutes from my personal driving? I would like to do this so the IRS does not have a problem with it.

I've done online searches but could not find the information I needed. An answer from someone with experience in this field would be greatly appreciated.

I was involved in the purchase of a house and I ended up not buying the house becuase the appraisal came in at less the the contract purchase price. I had a VA clause in the contract that said if it appraised less than the purchase price, then I didnt have to buy the house and I wasnt entitled to lose any earnest money. It turns out that I got denied anyway for the loan. The problem I have with my mortagage broker is that he 1. told the seller of the house that I was approved even after I was sent a denial letter from the broker.
2. the broker sent me the denial letter 2 months after the closing date around June 06(letter said"date denied March 06" .
3. the broker was contacted by the seller of the house (who is actually sueing me for not buying the house) to ask if i got approved for the loan , broker told him i was approved and also gave my income and employment info to the seller & told seller to go after me for everything that I have
4.broker lied- said i forged denial letter

I am starting a line of belts for women. They will have the logo prominently displayed on them.

Do I need a trademark or do I need a copyright? The United States Patent and Trademark Office Web site is not exactly easy to navigate through.

Does anyone know the answer to this question?

What does this mean? UI'm in high school and can't understand. How do you pay the tax, and how to government know whether or not I'm investing? IF I invest in mutual fund will the gov. tKE THE MONEY OR do i need to consult a CPA?


How will you pay the annual state and federal income taxes that will be due?

If a fund returned a steady 4.5% annually, you would have invested $200,000 and your fund would be worth $327,831. Your gain would be $127,831 before taxes. Some of the tax would be due each year and the balance of the tax would be due when then shares are sold.

Once a new development is sold out and the developer is ready to sell the model homes, do they price them cheaper than homes with identical features/options? (I'm not talking about whatever furniture or other interior decorations that may factor into the price, but the price of the home itself). I assume they would, since the model homes would have some wear and tear, and you don't get to choose the options. But maybe not?

I plan to move in the next year, my current house needs a new roof which I have already budgeted for and plan to have done this month for about $5,000. Is it in my best interest now to spend the $5,000 on a new roof to add to the value of the house, or put it on the market without a new roof, knowing it will decrease the selling price?

I moved into my fiances parents house on June 15 of this year.
I have 2 children. My fiance is the father of one. I used to file as head of household and claimed both kids when I had my own place. While my fiance filed as single. My fiance makes about twice as much money as I do. How should we file this year to get the most money refunded?
