i play tennis me and my doubles partner were looking to have some people sponsor our travels but I was wondering how they could give us money in a way that they could get a tax write of and it would not be considered as something that would make us inelligable to go to a college and play on the tennis team.
any answers would help thanks

Companies today are all hot to trot about electronic statements, trying to convince us that they are superior to paper statements, but being someone who archives statements, somehow, having to drop everything, find the web site, log in, navigate to the statement, download it (assuming they offer a download option, otherwise it's an ugly save), and figure out where to save it is a lot more effort than rip it open, toss it on the coffeetable, and eventually add it to my file.

The problem would be solved if they just emailed the darn thing to me. Then it would be automatically archived for me and my effort would be greatly reduced. But no one wants to do this. Why? I have some theories but nothing firm. Perhaps since email is not authenticated they don't want people trusting it. But they they still use it, so that's a contradiction. Perhaps it's privacy; but email is supposed to be private, and why not give me that option? Anyone have any better ideas?

I have a 3 part question. I am trying to buy a house and move to another state. I ran my credit and found some things that I am not sure about.
1st- a couple of collection agency accounts that are several years old (2-3 years). Is a paid CA account really any better than a non paid CA ? Also, if I pay them do this re-age the 7 yr. clock.
2nd. One debt I don't even think it is mine, so I called the CA and asked him to verify the debt. He was very rude and said it was up to me to prove that it isn't mine, and that he could only send me a bill from them for the debt. I want to see any info. from the orginal debt collector (dish network) which he said he doesn't have and can't provide.
3rd and final. That same debt from above has been turned over to 2 different CA's. One under dish network and 1 under "echostar". Is this legal? I am thinking I should send each of them a verification of debt demand letter.
Thanks so much for any and all help!!
Hutch

I heard this on the Oprah show about 3 years ago. A lady was on their and said that small amount of money would make a kid rich and she went on to say $1 dollar a day for a childs life would make the kid a rich adult. . My niece is about to have a baby, and I would like to invest some money for it, not a lot, just about a dollar a day. Where did Oprah's guest get that idea? Do you have to be smart about investing because God knows, I am no Allen Greenspan.

I have $1000 that I would like to turn into $4000 in one year. What would be the best and SAFEST way to do this? In one year, the $4000 would be spent at one time in one place. I am employed, so "save $3000 more" is an option, but not the only one. Ideas? Let's see them!
