I've been noticing that my landlord enters my apartment when I'm not there and I was wondering what can be done about it. Even though she denies it, I notice that my things are placed where I didn't leave them and my food is open when I just bought it. Plus, she is the only one with the extra key.

In 2007 I made about 15,000 from work got a settlement which 34,000 went to medical bills, 24,000 went to me for damages, and 20,000 Went to my lawyers fees. I had no insurance when the bills got paid and all medical bills were paid by my lawyers. How much of my medical bills and/ or lawyers fees will come back in my tax return?

from august through the end of this year I am working a job making 9 an hour working full time making over 1,000 a month. I just turned 18 in nov. From jan to june I was making 7 an hour pulling maybe 450-500 a month. At my current job I have already lost over 1,000 to taxes in just 3 months. My overall yearly income should be about about 7000-8000 minimum. I plan on going on a road trip next summer so all of my tax return will be going towards it along with other money I will have saved up. Can anyone give my a good guesstimate on what my tax return will look like. I dont have any claims for my taxes (ie kids, wife, an so on)

According to the quicken glossary (http://www.quicken.com/glossary/notemplates/content/?liqnet), liquid net worth, is defined as "assets that can readily be turned into cash without a major loss in value; therefore, do not include ... funds already earmarked for other purposes."

For a person who is below retirement age and could convert retirement funds to immediate cash with a 40% or so penalty when all tax consequences are figured in, should that money be included or not included in the calculation of liquid net worth?

I am considering purchasing a first house and they are all too far away to casually travel to. I can't afford anything that won't need repairs. How do I get estimates on repairs if I am nowhere near the houses? Any other advice for getting houses that are far away would be useful too.

Would you buy a house that was overpriced for the neighborhood it was in, but was much nicer than anything in the neighborhood?

OK. Im 18 yrs old and my dad is a pretty wealthy Guy. Ever since i was ten he's been telling me he's going to give me his 4 family house when im ready. And we talked about it last night and he's gunna talk to his Lawyer to get the title put into My Name and My Fiance's name. We will be living in the 2nd floor and renting out the other 3 units. But we have to remodel it first because it's an old house and it needs a lil work.We will both be working and i will be going to school full time in January. We will be collecting rent from the tenants and that will help pay for the mortgage (there's $100,000 left). And we also have to pay for utilities but is there anything else that we may have to pay for? like taxes? I know that we should always keep extra money just incase something happens and i know that its a big responsibility and i dont want to jump into it and then find out that i have like 50 other things to pay for. Any Tips for a New Landlord?
Thanks in Advance.

I work at an accounting firm and we have had 3 different clients with CDs at Capital One and Capital One is with-holding taxes from the interest but then not paying the IRS. So the IRS comes after our clients for the taxes.

The last job that I had, only lasted 6 months and I went into a job agency today that told me, I had to have at least 1 year of job experience with the same company (minimum) after the conviction, (which happened a year ago) for them to be able to work with me. It's been HELL finding a job and needless to say, I am starting to get a little discouraged, after 3 months of no money coming in. I have my own apartment, I'm trying to go back to school in January, but most employers want me to live in the past and keep throwing my ONE MISTAKE in my face, instead of allowing me to move forward and giving me a chance to make a decent living for myself. I am telling employers the truth about my conviction, and it seems like they like me and my resume, but as soon as they see misdemeanor for petty theft, they immediately turn me away even for Industrial jobs. I don't want to lie, but it seems that I have to, to get ahead.
If I tell them that I worked for my cousins limo business, will it work?

I moved to a new town from chicago 7 months back. we bought a new home here. We kept our condo in Chicago for sale since april. we changed two realotors, went 20K below the average price, did everything we can. but it just doesnt sells. Now all my savings are exhausted and i cant pay two mortgages (new home and old home). I was thinking of foreclosing the old home as i cant pay the mortgage anymore and iam not even living there.

In my salary, i can pay my new home mortage, all my credit card bills,etc. My question is that if i foreclose the chicago condo. Will i lose my new home, job or my other credit cards , etc also?
.
On doing google search i found out tat one can foreclose by simply not paying the mortage and the rest is taken care by the company. but i really dont wanna do that. Do you think its possible tat i just call my lender and say them abt my inability to pay the loan. Is this a good option? or are lenders very mean and unhelpfull in this.
