My employer has said that they do not have work I can do in the office that does not involve typing or using a mouse. If this goes as far as me not being able to carry out my job and them denying me any other role, what can I do? They can't make me leave can they? After all, my injury was caused by working for them! Do they legally have to give me compensation? What action can I take to avoid getting taken advantage of?

When somebody fills out an application form 4 an apartment & writes down where they r working & about how much money they make a month, does the apartment agents have a way of checking it, or do they j believe what is written. I know they can run a credit check, is that part of it? If not, how do they check it? Do they call the place that u put down and ask if u r working there?

What if u put down that u r working & u really r at the time u sign the applicaton, but then u quit ur job during the lease, but u r paying 4 it because somebody is putting money n 2 ur bank account? What if u want to sign another another 12 month term and still not working? Would they say that u would have 2 have somebody cosign or sign only in their name?

How difficult is the following 4 getting an apartment?
Not working, bad credit, going to school?
Not working, bad credit, not going to school?
Working, bad credit, going to school?
not working, good credit, going to school?

I have what I believe would be some great products for consumers. And I'm quit sure the technology is here to produce them. My question is how do I start? If you tell somebody how do you protect yourself so they don't steel the idea. I'm looking for someone that can lead me to the right people. I truely think they would be worth millions. Let just say anybody with a television, computer or any cell or landline phone would want one.

I have been thinking about this question recently, i hope someone can help me clear this up. When a stock "splits" i.e. its share price halves and quantity doubles, how does it appear in the stock market the following day, is the price quoted as half of original value, with a drop of 50% quoted, or is there a different system?

I've got 2 credit cards that are maxxed out at this time, but working casual it wasn't a problem for the bank to give me the cards to use but when I apply for debt consolidation then all these factors form and I'm told no go.

Another mistake I made, (which I should've known better) was that I applied for a number of online personal loan applications not realizing it would take the toll on my credit file history.

I'm going to close off one of the credit cards in early jan. (1500$) and the other one (4500$) will just be able to put 1500 and then ask to lower the limit.

My question is if I just pay off the card in one go (1500$) and haven't been keeping up with the normal monthly payments , will that show bad on my history?

I just want the cards gone... so pay off in one go, close card off .. will that be a bad idea and would it affect my prospects in applying for a loan in the future?

Cheers

oh and any other advice you want to offer to a troubled CC user.
Thanks :)

someone has mineral rights specifically stated as "from surface down to, but not to exceed, 15300 ft". Can I purchase rights below this depth? I have reason to believe drilling will be very close if not deeper according to the landman, plus, all area wells (5) are currently drilled at the 14500 to 15100 ft depth. I've unable to determine if any rights are claimed beyound the 15300 ft depth.

My best friend just bought an expensive car! She owes like $30,000 on it! She said she went with the lowest intrest rate she found, and now she is afraid she cant afford the vehicle. I told her to sell it but she has like $10,000.00 neg. equity! She now is trying to figure out a way to total the vehicle because her loan covers the remaining cost if the car that the insurance doesn't pay (her neg. equity), and the insurance covers the rest. In other words she owes nothing. I don't know what to tell her!?! Please help. Should I help her come up with ways to total the car, or what other ways can I go about this situation?

I am still a teenager and I am not proud to say I am spoiled. I get anymost anything I want. I would like to know if I saved up some money as a kid a few thous would it really help out in the longshot as an adult. Or do you think its fine that im living out my teenage years buying the xbox having a nice t.v. and all the stuff I want. Basicly this is my question. Do you think its stupid that i keep spending money on things like my t.v., i phone, snowboard, xbox games and not saving money or do you think its fine that im using most of my money for now and i will assure you once i am on my own i will have my own job and wont get any money from my parents and wont spend anything and will save them. I know right now i have about 20 grand is that good right now or am i behind and i should start saving up?
