Business & Finance - 5 December 2007

I loaned someone 9000.00 cash that was due in full on Jan. 1, 2005. If it is not payed back in full balance (no payments have been made, in fact) and the contract states that the remaining balance (9000.00) is subject to a 20% monthly interest rate beginning on Jan. 1, 2005, how much money is owed on Jan. 1, 2008?
Like I said, it has never been paid on, and the 20% monthly interest rate is on the original 9000.00 owed.
I have found a few different websites online that claim to show how to do the problem, but I have come up with numbers raging from 16,000 and some change to upwards of 500,000!! Please help! Thank you so much!

Hubby's worried because he's heard from a manager from another department that his boss is not impressed with him or his note taking (they keep track of what they do with the notes I don't know why my hubby wasn't covering his ***). His boss hasn't said anything to him [yet] so should he be so worried? As of today he's been taking notes of everything he can think of. Thanks all!

If EVERYONE had to pay the same percentage of their whole incomes, wouldn't the funds from the super wealthy eliminate all of the anticipated shortages in the coming years? Why is it up to the middle class to carry everyone?

I'm 18 and this is my first job (I'm currently taking a break from school). I work in this popular/busy coffee shop. The manager has recently given me a warning. She said I should pick up more speed and brew as much coffee as possible. I'm doing my best now to improve. I'm on 3 months' probation, and this is my second month there. I asked her if she's thinking of letting me go, and she replied "No, not right now." Are these signs I'll be fired soon? Should I look for a new job NOW?

I have decided to file bankruptcy to escape my poor real estate investment decisions.
I moved to New England from Arizona early this year. A couple of weeks ago it started getting really cold, and being from a warm climate, I did not have any winter clothes. So I went shopping... while I was at it I bought Christmas gifts as well - nothing extravagant - couple hundred here and there... but it adds up.
When I logged onto my credit card website to check the charges, I realized I had charged almost $4000! I am worried that this may be scrutinized by the trustee and/or declared fraud by the creditor.
I am looking for personal experiences with similar situations and recommendations. One idea I had was to struggle a few more months through the bills so that it "drops off the radar."
The debt charge up was certainly not intentionally done to defraud my creditors, but I'm not sure others will see it like that.
I have paid my credit card since the charges. My account is in good standing.

I paid my 1st month rent to secure an apartment, but I could not view it until I paid. After viewing the apartment it had plug-in space heaters instead of a furnace and I have an infant and a toddler so this would not have been safe. I didn't sign a lease or anything else and I found a new place. now they say my $ is non-refundable. How can I get my $?

I had a serious situation last year which prevented me from paying my taxes entirely and now my husband has been out of work for medical reasons and we can't keep up with paying the back tax. Are any of these firms that specialize in helping taxpayers by dealing with the the IRS real or are they scams? We don't know where to turn. The IRS is threatening to levy my income -our only source of income which means we can't pay mortage, car payments, electric, etc. Anyone?

I found this job on career builder.com and was wondering if it's a good job. It kind of seems like one of those jobs where all you do is try to sell things to people...here are the details:
