In a savings deposit box I was recently informed about, there was a stock certificate from 1983 for 25 shares of "GLEN" (formerly Glendale Federal Bank). It looks like Glendale has gone through a number of mergers/acquisitions. I'm not sure who the main company is today - it's so confusing. Is it worth zero now or can I retire? :-) Thank you, in advance, for any help/direction you may be able to provide!

I have been fortunite enough the last 6 months to be able to pay down my debet and I know to pay off the highest interest rate first. However I have a car payment that is $148.00 monthly @ interest rate 7&1/2% I can pay off the car loan by Febuary 2007 or I can pay off my 11.5% credit card in August or late 2007. The part about freeing up $148.00 a month so I can pay more towards my credit card seems like a better idea do you agree

I owe the credit card $9.000, and I owe $5000.00 on an a 2002 Impala blue book value $8.000.00

Can you give a sweet little girl some help

Thanks and many Hugzzz
Kristy

I am 28 years old & just bought a $400,000 house three months ago. My credit score is around 700. I make about $90,000/year @ have no bills other than normal living expenses. I was denied a low interest loan for a used boat I was looking at ($12,000 Sea Doo Speedster) . . I was wondering if the house purchase 'screwed up' my credit (short term) . . . or if boat loans are hard to get compared to a house???. . . . any help/ideas from everyone would be nice. Thank you for reading/helping me with this... Its hot in Southern California right now & I wanna be on the water.

Looking for people that have had issues with banks charging more than should be. Such as one overdraft and they create multiple NSF fees, adding insurance to loans without proper notice or doing it legally. Contact me with your story !!!!

I watched the video on yahoo about getting rid of the penny, and they said that because the price of zinc, it now costs 1.3 cents to make a penny. I personally don't think that we should get rid of it. Just find another metal to make it, or the price of zinc may go down. So should we get rid of the penny?

I know it's a highly personal question, but please answer this for me- and please, be honest. I have been trying to save money (as in save up in the bank), but things are always coming up: emergencies, car repairs, medical needs, etc. I can never save any money, and it's a terrible disappointment. Do most people just live from paycheck to paycheck, or do some people really actually have extra money to save up?

What has been your own personal experience with this? Do you have money saved? What is your secret? How may I also save money?

Hello,
I was curious to ask how a Chapter 13 payment is calculated. I know that the new bankrupty laws require the use of IRS spending averages to determine how much you can spend on food/clothing/housing. What happens if the house payment doesn't fit within the IRS guidline? Will the court allow you to keep your house? In terms of qualitity of living, is there any money left over after the payment for misc. items that might come up or are you left without a extra dime until the payment plan is over?

"Professional" - CEO, etc. Think about this (I am in Florida, USA) -- 20 years ago my father-in-law retired making $8.00 an hour BUT his mortgage was $125.00 a month. The AVERAGE pay rate for the regular working person NOW is $8.00-$9.00 and hour but, for instance, the average home sells for $300,000.00 in our area. Rent for a 2 bedroom apt. is about $1,200.00. Can someone tell me HOW this happened? I mean, I know we can't all be financially rich but it is truly not right. Most of us are living on a prayer anymore and this is the USA!! Most of us don't have health insurance (me for one with serious health issues and can't get help because can't afford it - YET make too much $$ HA HA to get aid). How did this happen to us?????
