Personal Finance - February 2007

I switched my mortgage from the Halifax, and they continued to take money out of my account for 2 months after the switch! They have now paid the money back into my account, but I have been left with a £100 bank charge for going over my overdraft limit. Is there anything I can do about this?

How much would a 2bedroom fully furnished condo cost on rent in Singapore? Can I get something good in SgD 1300-1500 a month? Can a family of 2 adults +1 infant live on about SgD 500 monthly for food (vegetarian, home cooking)? On a monthly salary of SgD 5000 post tax, can I save 2000 per month? A detailed response to my queries will be highly appreciated. Thank you.

Hey, I'm a 20 year old college student and I want to learn about personal finance. Can someone give me an idea of where to start? A book to read? Personal advice of any sort? Roth IRA? Mutual Fund? I hardly know the difference between the two, but can someone give me an idea of how to safely and securely begin investing money?

My husband and I are frugal, and we love to save as much as we can. I max out my 401k yearly, but my husband's employer doesnt offer any retirement benefits so we max out our IRA's. We started to save $10K a year and put it in an emergency fund. However, we still have $3K a month to save. Where should we invest it? Our net worth is less than $500K, and we make gross $150K/year combined and no kids yet. A financial advisor suggested putting the extra $3K a month in a variable annuity or stocks, but didnt suggest CD/Treasury Bonds, etc. What's the best financial wealth strategy for a couple in their mid 30's?

It seems like a small amount, but with hardly any income and rising late fees it's getting no where. My credit is already ruined - I don't think the bankruptcy will hurt it that much more. Would it be hard with the new laws to file and wipe the debt out?

I am looking for a grant to help me pay for bills and my house. I am a single mother with a very busy life and don't have the time or the flexability for another job in my life right now. Does anyone know where and how I can find and apply for a grant. The cd's on the internet are basically worthless.
