I was home schooled all of my elementary and most of my high school years. I don't know what would be a good career to pursue. I live in the Philippines as a missionary with my parents, but I would like to go back to the USA to get a good paying job. I don't know what to pursue in order to attain a good job. I love doing computer work, but i'm not sure if that's good choice to pursue or not. I wanted to pursure nursing once, then teaching. I just don't know what kind of jobs are being offered these days. Any advice on the kind of jobs available nowadays and what requirements are usually asked for?

I have been diagnosed with Tourette's Syndrome when I was 8, and now at the age of 13, am still living with it (as most of you may know, you can't really get rid of it). I recently became very interested in my IQ, so I took an IQ test (one of the online ones, I know it's probably not as accurate), and to my surprise, my IQ was only 122 (Weschler Scale). However, I realized that, as I was taking the test, I did have trouble focusing, and even now as I write this, I have been stopped at least seven times due to an uncontrollable tic. Can Tourette's Syndrome (or ADD, or OCD) affect an IQ test score? Is it possible that my actual IQ is higher?

If you talk to someone and ask 'Do you know your IQ?' some people will say no and others say about 138. From the people I have spoken to the average IQ is about 140 and my girlfriend is a genius. Can't anyone tell we know they are lying?

Ok so I have a professor who is a crazy smoker. She gives us a 5-10 minute break every 25 minutes (im not kidding) cause she needs to go outside for a smoke. The class is 3 hours long, but I’d rather get out of there a 1/2 hour earlier OR just take one 10-15 minute break half way through like in most other classes. It’s really annoying when you have to stop the lecture every 20 minutes or so. You don’t end up learning as much, and especially when you’re paying for your education, you realize what a waste that is. We did address her about this several of times during class, and all she kept saying was, “don’t complain, some teachers don’t give a break at all”. She has a point, but still. What do u all think?
Oh and also, this class has the most anti-social group of people I’ve ever met, so it’s really boring and awkward having to wait for the Smokers Club to return!

In a typical eBay auction: bidders compete for a fixed period of time, and at the end of period the highest bidder gets the good and pays his bid to the seller. During this process, any bidder can see the history of highest bids. I've these questions:

1) How important is information asymmetry in eBay auctions considering perspective of both the buyer and seller.
2) eBay has a rating system for each seller. What is the economic rationale for this (from the perspective of increasing expected revenues of the seller)?
3) In eBay auctions, should bidders be willing to bid up to their value for the good or not? Justify your answer.
4) Most bids come in right before the auction closes. What is an economic rationale for this behavior? Should this be more of a problem for common value or private value auctions?
5) Is collusion likely to be a problem here? In particular, does the auction design promote or discourage collusion?

I've some ideas but need your help to refine them.

most people don't know who they are, and when asked this question they will often tell you their name, or that they are a male or female, or black or white, which all of these things are for identification purposes. I do not want to know your name, or what you are, or your color, nationality or gender, but who are you.
