Success Happy

WORKING WITH FAMILY, BEING SUCCESSFUL & ALL THEY DO IS HATE - PLS HELP? Hey Yahoo - Thanks to everyone for your answers in advance, it is much appreciated!! Ok so i came back to my hometown and am living with my moms, i came back for around 6 months to work and gain experience and of course, money. I am working to be able to pay off my tuition and university in another country. I have just turned 20 a few weeks ago. My dad (who is no longer with my mom, they have been split for 10 years now) has always wanted me to work for him. He owns his own Real Estate company and i decided i need money and his business needs a push as there is no income coming in for him with all his current employees. So in a matter of 4 months i have started a whole new sector, LETTING, which he has never done before. When i started workin he said he will pay me 400 per month - where my brother gets paid 900... which is cool i accepted it cus i made sure that i would make alot of money independantly by renting houses... Letting actually worked and i am doing very well with it considering its a whole new thing, everyone else in the office havent even rented one yet. Now i am working from 8am till 9pm at night, so im not just getting easy money - i am there cus i need to be, i need to pay for university. So when everyone else is sleeping and chatting on computers i am straight working. I only have a few months and i am not only paying uni but moving to another country, i am a 20 year old girl and this isnt easy at all. But i am remaining positive and doing what i have to do. The problem is my dad is paying evvvvvvveryone else with no problem, but has stopped paying me.. as he is seeing i am successful, he decided i dont need his money because i have enough. In other words he rather pay bums who take his money and dont get anything in, rather that his only daughter who is young and trying to get a better life and get a degree and who is actually getting him money. Last week alone he got 1,400 - which i think is good. If i dont get money he wont be able to pay everyone elses wages. I think this is not fair at all and its really getting me down :( What do you think and what would you do? Its as if he is angry that i am successful and is also asking me to pay silly small bills. I have tried to speak to him n he says ''if i had the money u know id pay you'' and when i get him money i ask him are u proud and he says ''yes but i need more, its not enough, i need more'' Thanks for reading xxx

Would architecture be a successful career to look at in Canada? I'm really interested in this field, and I'm pretty sure I could accomplish this after high school, but would it provide me with enough salary for basic things (food, shelter etc...), and would it be worth it? I heard people saying you cannot make a decent amount of profit from it, and you only get paid when a building is made

How do television networks and radio stations make profit? I understand that through sponsorships and commercials they can turn interest from investments, but how did television and radio make money when they first started? I can't imagine that sponsors and commercials pay for ALL expenses (employee wages, production costs, etc.). Where is this revenue coming from? If a T.V. show/network/channel or radio station receive more viewers/listeners than their competitors, they're deemed successful, but how does this translate to revenue? We, as viewers and listeners, only pay the electric bill when watching t.v. (and the cable bill, for more channels).

University is not required to be successful? i have never been to uni and never will, some of my friends went and now cannot find work and are saddled with student debt before they even begin the journey through life, it is irrelevant that you only pay the debt off when you earn over X amount because debt is debt and has to be paid back eventually, they are not happy people ether they spent all there money on beers and good times, this is all well and good but it doesn't pay your bills in future years, so to me its a pointless excuse.......i started my business and now earn exceptional money even during recession all from my own mind without university education.......so why do so many people regard UNI as the be all and end all of life......??? by the time my friends find work ill be so much further down the line financially and my long term future is already secure...........so what is the point of uni?? i think its over rated massively.....views please????

Has anyone else noticed it is NOW a bad thing to be successful in the US, since the Obama Election? Just look at the various answers to political questions on this website for anecdotal evidence of class envy. What do you think the long term consequences are of Obama getting elected by telling the Poor that they are poor because the rich (over 250K per couple) made them poor. He has convince millions of people that Rich people are the problem that if they would only pay more money in taxes everything will be just fine. What happens when the rich are paying more and everything gets worse? Think of South Africa, what happened is horrible for everyone not just the wealthy but for everyone. Our only hope is the people who are working and making between 20K and 250K per year wake up and stop this this divisive President.

When rich and successful investors buy things that are profitable, how profitable? And how long for the profit? When rich and successful investors pay millions for something that is profitable, how small minimum of a profit would they agree to no less than? 100%/200%/300% or more? Since although that would be only a few times what they paid for, the amount is still great. And another question: With inventions, since the profit is a gradual process, how long of a time that even if they had to wait to gain the profit would they still agree to the deal? 10 years or less? Since it depends on the amount of money in profit, give me some examples. I would understand that a 10 year wait for a 100% profit of 5 million dollars is better than a 10 year wait for a 100% profit of 1 million dollars. But I don't know the range. Just the obvious and the basics.

Child Support review in TX... Are child care costs a valid reason? I am currently only receiving $80.77 every 2 weeks for child support. They told me when we first went in that because he is a student (community college) that he could make $100 an hour and still only have to pay the bare minimum. At that time I paid HIS MOM $75 every 2 weeks to watch my princess while I worked m-f. He was not paying a dime in child support at the time. I (trying to keep the peace) denied my right to back child support. The weekend after the court and the agreed $80.77 per 2 weeks he gave me 2 days to find child care because his mom was having knee surgery. (It takes more than 2 days to schedule a surgery so I know they knew about the surgery for a while) I had to take off a week from work to keep her and research local facilities. I found an awesome place, but I pay $140 per week.... My question is: Is this an adequate reason to have my child support reviewed? Have you had this experience or something similar. I make more $$ than him, I just feel that he needs to actually contribute to his daughter's education & care. I will pay over $7000 in child care this year alone (& paid close to $7000 last year) and he is only paying $2100 a year.... Not even half... Does anyone know the law here in Texas? Is anyone familiar with the system?? I am only 21, but I am successful, do not live on the "system", a newly wed, and proud mommy of my beautiful 3yr old princess... I just need help!

How do I know when I'm successful? Hello there, I have always wanted to be a independent woman that didnt need to depend on a man to make things work and i always wanted to be the best at everything I do.. I am a college student I have a gpa over 3.8 and I am a salary paid manager that works over fifty five hours a week. But i never feel like I accomplish enough and am never proud of my self. It seems like I can't find peace in my self or be satisfied.. I don't find my self successful but only a failure.. what is successful?

I still don't really know what I want to be when I grow up, I'm not an average girl.? I'm a 16 year old girl and in high school. I'm really into cars. My passion is racing and auto mechanics. My other passion is singing and performing in my metal band. I'm also a die-hard gamer. I wanna be a video game designer/singer/racer/mechanic. I can't do all of them. And there are no colleges that have courses for all of those interests I have. It sucks. And my mother says that being an auto mechanic isn't much of a job. They don't get paid much, And you don't get praised for your work. Then my mom also says that being a singer is hard. Cuz it's really rare to get a record deal, and that's the only successful way to make money when you're a singer/screamer. Game design is really cool. I'm not gonna lie I'm really into that. But that could have it's flaws too. And racing is self-explanatory. You don't get big unless you're an amazing driver. Any help you can offer would be great! Thanks.

what can I do when I feel being cheated in my marriage and now I love another girl? i was married about 9 years ago. it was the so called indian "arranged marriage". my parents first went and seen the girl and went to see the girl and it was all determined by the parents. i could come to know only after my marriage that the girl is having a problem with her one leg which was operated in her young age and it became shorter. i didnt mind as i thought it was fate and it was a mistake on my parents as well. later the girl kept on saying that my parents were knowiing about this even before marriage. she was acting very quarrelsome and i got frustrated by her repeated statements and i took her to my parents and asked them in her presence. my parents told me that they were ready to promise in a temple to asertain that they were not aware of this. i wanted to divorce her because of her being very much irritated even for small issues but was compromising for the honor of family. it went on for another year and finally i took the issue to her parents and they said sorry for hiding and concealing the matter. i said i wanted compensation for being cheated. they promised me a house in return. i never asked for it later as i was actually not interested in getting money from any one that way. but she kept on shouting and quarreling. she used not to take bath even after mid-day. i was being from traditional family tried to convince her to take bath atleast by 8 am in the morning. she would quarrel even if mention how she can be with me. she never used to take compelete shower and small mites used to be spread all through her head. it took lot of time for me to convince her and after many fights, she started taking complete showers (as it is called "head bath" in india) but only once in a week. to my utter dissatisfaction, we always stayed separate in two different rooms. As i started threatening her of divorce , she rarely allowed me to her room, and we had two children after that. i became very frustrated by her hostile behavior. she never could talk good of my family members though they never had to interact with her. her elder sister stays separately though her in-laws stay in the same town and my wife gets all advices from her and tries to follow the way her elder sister behaves. my father-in-law had to distribute his property as my other two "co-brothers" pressurised him to do so. he gave lions shares to them and he gave to my wife only a piece of 200 2qyard land which costs only 50k inr. i never know where the property is there. i felt being cheated repeatedly as his earlier promise of giving me a house in compensation never happened! my co-brothers were successful only in making my father-in-law a pauper. he wasted all his property by investing in stock market (despite the fact that he does know nothing about it) and giving fringe loans to petty people. i thought my wife would change if i help him and so i started giving money to him. i gave him over one lakh rupees and my wife would be good with me. this i felt very bad that despite my repeated financial help to her parents, she could not make me happy. i stayed in a company township and because of her quarrlesome behavior with me, i felt shamed in the closed community and she never allowed me to take proper rest after my night shift work and i had to take pain killers to sustain the week long night shifts. finally i decided to quit my job and joined mba. i got some relief as i stayed separate from her as i was in college hostel. meanwhile i met a girl who is deaf and is physically handicapped as well. but she was very cordial and soft spoken. before joining mba in a college, i asked my wife to be with my parents as they are heptagenarians and they really need somebody to take of them and they would be very happy if their daughter-in-law and their grand children are with them while i am in the college. but she became furious about this and she said she would stay only her parents. i accepted and paid my in-laws 6000 rupees a month for their maintenance in addition to the money i gave to them whenever i went there to see them every week. i took care of the cost of education of my children as well. despite of all my efforts, she never tried to change. in the second year of my mba, my wife said herself that she would stay with my parents. i sent her to there. but again she became a big problem for my parents. my mother who is an epileptic patient, got too much disturbed by this lady and her health further deteriorated. meanwhile , i came very close to the girl i am interested now and started liking her for her good behavior and sincerity. i am now wish to have my life back. i wish now to be happy atleast now. i wish to live this girl. she too is very much liked me. please advice me, how can i get back my happy life. i became very introvert and inactive because of my wife. i want my life. but getting divorce is not so easy, as i know, in india please advice me i think i will become mad if i have to stay with my wife again.

An Interesting Question Asked About Successful Men on Here? This got me questioning something. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090830155145AAZyjBK This was for women to answer but I felt I had to, yes some guys are simply shallow and pigs and want the stereotypical perfect woman. BUT why is it that only successful men are being considered? It bothers me (a 19 year old boy) that women are criticizing men for this, when they are the ones only considering/questioning successful men. A bit of a stereotype that the man needs to be successful? No? I have to wonder why, say a man who is a teacher, who is not making a ton of money but doing something good, is considered what... second rate? Simply because he is not making a large sum of money, hence not being considered "successful" as some men with a higher paying job, even though he is showing that he is hard working, yet some, SOME, women would never consider picking a... bank teller, or convenience store clerk, over the man they are serving who is making a larger sum of money, to be someone they would date etc. So I must ask, why is it such a double standard to question the stereotypes? lol Do women truly run the world? Is it alright for women to question it, but for men to bite their tongues when women are doing exactly that (looking only at successful men as 'head of the class') People asking that question want to know why successful men only choose the steriotypical woman. Well I'm asking, is it alright for women to question a stereotype, when they themselves can be one (though many men are as well). Why do women only want a successful man?

PayPal and Bank Problems? I'm fairly new to PayPal, I set up an account not too long back so I could Buy & Sell on eBay... I sold one item... Now recently I had £25 in my bank account and I wanted to buy something off the internet for £24, I noticed a 'Pay with PayPal' option so I thought I might as well use it... After signing in I was told I had £8 in my 'PayPal' account (I had no idea your PayPal account had a difference balance to your Bank Account) so the final product was only going to require £15 to be taken from my Bank Account... According to it the transaction was successful and I even received an e-mail saying my item had been dispatched. However when I came to buy something else tonight I received a message saying "Payment authorisation transaction declined. Credit Card Not Authorised" The first thing I did was went to check my balance at an ATM, and was surprised with what I found. Where the ATM shows your "Account Balance" and "Available Balance"... well the previous day my "Account Balance" and "Available Balance" were both £25, however today my "Account Balance" was still £25 but my available balance was only £1. This has confused me quite a bit... Not only because it suggests no transaction took place the previous night when I purchased the £24 item... it's also not allowing me access to my own money which is apparently in my account?! Why is this? I thought maybe the money was 'reserved' and only paid to the seller of the item once I'd received it, but that makes little sense as it clearly said only £15 would be required from my bank account because I had £8 in my PayPal account! So why have I been denied access to the whole £25?? What is going on??

I miss being a teenager all of a sudden even though I still am? This is quite strange considering i'm only 16 years old. By next summer I will finishing up high school and going to college (I will still be a high school student, but i'm way ahead of my classmates and will finish all my high school credits by next summer and take advantage of free college classes until I graduate high school in 2013). I feel like my childhood is slipping away. I mean, I never did any high school kind of things. I never tried to play sports at school, never tried a cigarette or drank alcohol. I never went out partying or anything like that. I've always just worked hard in school and only paid attention to the future. I had so many chances to get a girlfriend, or play sports (my school's basketball coach was practically begging on his knees asking me to join the team, but I said no). But all i've done is... well try and be an adult even though I wasn't. Now that that future I have been planning since my conception is almost here I feel like I wasted my time where I could do anything I wanted to do. Also, I go about listening to music from like 2002-2005, watching old nickelodeon shows, and looking at photos of me as a little kid just really brings me down. I feel like i'm having a mid life crisis when i'm barely 16 years old. 1. I miss I didn't have to shower before going out. 2. I miss only having to do simple math. 3. I miss just taking the bus. 4. I miss not having to shave. I feel totally insane, I wish I never started a business. I wish I never studied hard. I wish I just acted like a kid. Now that i'm doing homeschooling and not out with friends I feel like I wasted my entire life. I know i'm going to be successful and all, and all that planning I did is going to pay off in the future. But I wish I just let lose for once in my life while I still had the chance.

Advice Please - Trustees.? Now I know I should never ask for more than General Advice but you don't have an 80 year old mother who is looking to me for assistance. Any advice and possible guidance would be very gratefully received. My mother is one of two life tenants of a Interest in Possession trust which came into existance in 1968 as a Settled Land Act trust. Last Christmas I visited my mother and found that she only had £70.00 as the trustee had not paid her income from the last year of account 2009 -2010. They acknowledged that they owed her money but gave no indication when they would pay. I helped her sue and they acknowledged the debt of £28,771. Judgement was entered plus interest and costs making the total £31K. When she received the accounts and cheque for 2010 -2011 they had clawed back all £31K and only paid her £647.00. They also advised that they were splitting the trust between her and her brother. Letters were sent telling them that their accounts were refused and full documentary evidence was required and that their proposal to split the trust was refused. Papers have been received which are being checked but they do not provide a proper answer to the accounts. They also say they are going ahead with splitting the trust despite her refusal. Now I know they have a duty not to act partially and haver to act in the interests of all parties including the remainder men, so removing them would be an option. However, my despite winning the action my mothers finances are not strong as she had ben living on credit cards and I am in no position to help. I think that the best thing to do is write reminding them of their duty and telling them their proposal is still refused and if they proceed action will be taken to remove them. However, that action will have to wait because of the cost. Sue them for this years accounts. I doubt any court will find anything other than in her favour, paying her 1.11% of what is normally due would be hard to argue. The money gained can then be used to remove them and I would think (comment please) that 2 successful actions against them plus their showing action in splitting the trust would make it very dificult for a judge not to order their removal. Please.

questions about career of massage therapy? Hi I have been wanting to go into massage therapy for quite sometime now and have some questions about it and few other things pertaining to it. I know that when massage therapists graduate from school most go and work for either chiropractors or spas because I have heard that is the best route to go after just getting out of school. Right now though, I have in a very interesting situation and have a very big and important decision to make for this fall which will affect my future greatly depending on whichever way I end up going. I got accepted into a university for this fall and what my major there will be (if I still yet go there) is psychology and minor is criminal justice. Now I know from what I heard that it will take ALOT of money to pay for going there because financial aide only pays for $3500 of it and if you take 4 classes your left to pay 500 yourself on top of books and all other good stuff that comes with going to college. However, there is the other option where I can go and do massage therapy instead this fall only takes 2 semesters and all of it would be paid for by community college that I would be going too that does it. And the plan was when I got done there I would just go on to the university next fall 2012 stead of 2011 and just work as a massage therapist and go and take classes there. Some people say though that I don't need too do all that going and doing massage therapy and w/e cause I'll burn out on it and that you don't do that well in it anyway no matter who you work for because you have to build your business up and what not. I have heard others say that you will do well regardless cause spas and chiropractors offices have LOTS of clients and you will make plenty of money to make it by. I also however have a CNA certificate and in order to do well from that you have to work bout 5 days a week at least say 2-10 or 3-11 and if I'm doing all this while going to university and say taking 4 classes I just don't know if it would be a good idea cause I just think may be taking bit more on than I want too cause massage therapists I also hear don't have to work that many hours in a week to make a decent income. Most I hear work anywhere from 10-25 hours a week or something and I keep hearing how well they do and still have all this time to do stuff yet still make enough to be successful. So I am asking is it worth my time and effort to go into this career like I have always wanted too? And would it really help me that greatly if I do it through college having more time to study and not having to work that much all while making a decent income on top of it all? I talked to a massage therapist and she said that she works for spa and chiropractor and said that your not going to get 100% of what you make unless you work for yourself which I already figured that. But most I know that do it earn anywhere between $15-30 dollars an hour and I know some who make 50-70 an hour and the state I live in by the way is Illinois case this matters and can cause a difference to occur due to some states being different than others. Anyhow, I really would appreciate anyone's help, advice, or opinions on what they think about any of this and what they think would be good for me to do or least give their input on what they would do if they wanted do all this or w/e. Look forward to hearing from someone and getting some good feedback from people. I am wanting to do it as a long term thing not just bridge the gap for how long it would take too do this. The CNA thing would require very long hours and I am unsure of if I would make enough. And I also would not just be in it for money either I really do want to make something with it. My goal is too do it on the side with psychology and I am just trying to learn some answers here basically. And I heard chiropractors paid well actually shocking they wouldn't pay you that good. And spa's way your making it sound pay better than chiropractors do??!! lol.

How do I attract more attention and bidders to my products on Ebay? I have read a book about ebay and followed all the advice in the book. I learned a lot out of the book and thought that doing what the book said to do would help me get some bids. However, I have some things on ebay that have been there for several days. One thing (Norton Antivirus) sold. But the person who bought it was a cheep skate and only bid my min amount. Now that lady hasn't paid and she bought it Three days ago. I can't send it till I get paid. Now I have some books that I got at the book store on the bargain shelf for about Five bucks each. The cover price of these books is $25-$30. I put them on for between $13 and 25 bucks each. $25 is the buy now price. If I charge any less than that, I will not make any money on the books and I will get screwed. I charge 13 dollars, because that gives me $5 profit and Three dollars to cover Ebay fees. What should I start selling if books and antivirus programs are not working. Some of the books are on for a second listing. I thought I could supplement my income on Ebay, but it is not working and I don't have any money to invest into buying any thing big to sell. I have also put Three Xbox games on there and they are not selling either. I only paid Two dollars for them and I am trying to get about $14 for them. WTF? What am I doing wrong? Like I say, I can't charge any less. I have got NO BIDS at all on any thing else, except for the Antivirus. The other things I have on there are for a much lower price than any one will pay in the store and they are very attractive products, no body has even looked at them. Not even one click on them. Not even when I listed them all for a penny starting bid w/ a reserve price for $13. I live in Orlando, FL so I have thought about selling Disney products via drop shipping. But is that as successful as they say it can be?

I have a theory why women like men that treat them like crap....? Tell me if you agree/disagree & why. Women like men that ignore them and step all over them because that's how they think they deserve to be treated. They all want "high quality" men- whether that means handsome, successful, rich, etc. And they believe if a man is really "high quality" enough he wouldn't treat her very well. (makes sense?) Whereas if a man treats her TOO nice- that means that he ISN'T a very worthy man is trying to make up for it! My experience: My first girlfriend (early 20s) I treated too nice. I waited patiently when she was over a half hour late to see mee, listened to all her problems, bought her expensive gifts, helped her when she was between apartments and needed a place to stay (she ended up leeching off me and staying for 3 months), etc. She dumped me by breaking all contact suddenly. Second gf (mid 20s) I criticized her when she was late or made any faults. If she was late to see me, I simply left and turned off my phone. I didn't call her back right away when I was busy. I had her make her own plans for her birthday and only paid my own share. In general I was quick to tell her when she was wrong and how I wanted her to be. She in turn became obsessed with me and told me she loved me. Note that both of these girls had fairly similar levels of physical attractiveness. So, in the end would you like a guy that is a bit too nice or a bit too mean? Obviously the perfect happy median would be best but that's honestly hard to balance, so picking between these two the too mean is a clear winner right?

How by me not choosing to go to college, is that showing that I have no inerest in my future? I am sorry, but I am a very hard worker in society, I work 2 jobs that I do my very best in and I still go home every night and do things that are expected of me! College is not for everyone! I dont get why everyone thinks that the only successful people are the ones that go to college! I did horrible in High School so what is the point in spending 1000's of dollars to go to college when I know that I possibly won't succeed and will probably wind up dropping out!? I think that the way American society is built today is messed up! People have different choices, different lives, and I see no reason to criticize people for their decisions on how they plan their future! I guarantee that one of my jobs I have right now pays better and I have better benefits than some people that spent 10 years in college so please explain to me why it is considered "lazy" or that one has no interest in their future if they choose not to go to college!?

I told my best friend who is also my roommate to stop paying his relatives bills, and now his mad with me.? My best friend, is a guy I really respect and admire. We have known eachother 3 months now, and when I say we are best friends we are, its a deep spiritual connection friendship. We do lots of stuff together, also I showed him what a true friend is because when he got sick 2 weeks ago with the flu none of his other so called friends were there for him but I was, I doctored him. Well anyway we both work jobs, careers, and although his relatives, work and or receive benefits he pays some of their bills. Like car note, and utility bills. If he was only paying a cell phone bill I would be mute to this, but this man pays almost $ 600.00 a month on their bills alone, and so Monday this week, I just sat him down in the living room and told him, look stop paying their bills, they are taking advantage of you. Thats not love, thats called using someone, when they stupidly are doing so. My friend is 23, I am 22 he is an architect in training, plus he is a successful realtor for the last year and has made nearly $ 250,000 this year alone from representing luxury properties. He told me its his turn to take care of them but I told, look it was their duty to take care of you as a minor, but as an adult you're not obligated to them financially. It pisses me off because he just isnt seeing that he is being used. Paying a cell phone bill is one thing, or even a water bill, but paying car not plus insurance, and sometimes all utility bills with car note is just plain being taken advantage of. I told him to stop doing that, they are using him, etc.... and although he is my best friend mutually he just flipped out on me, and told me its his wallet and he'll do what he wants with it. He told me mind my own business. The thing is though I have been blunt with him on several other things and he didnt flip out on me. That was Monday, and now its friday I have tried going into his room but he keeps his door locked now, and wrote him several letters on this, I understand he is mad, but I spoke the truth. I'll tell you on his girlfriend in my next q. Yeah I know hell come around but he's too good of a friend to lose. He's more than a club friend, or friend you go to mall with and thats it, this man is really a true friend. I need advice on this thanks

Ex Wife has never paid what a Judge ordered in 2002? My ex Wife has never paid what a Judge ordered in 2002. When my ex decided she didn't want to be married any more, we had to sell the house and she got 85% of the equitable value in order that she could buy a smaller house for her and the 1 dependant child. I agreed to this and as a result she never attacked my pension or anything else for that matter. Our one dependant child has never missed out on contact or anything else as we live fairly close to one another and I have taken full participation in all he and the older kids have done, up to and including now, he is a Law student and the ex and I share any additional costs on a fifty fifty basis. When we were going through the divorce, I moved out and rented a house, she did not work so could not afford the cost of the mortgage whilst the house was on sale I agreed to pay it until it was sold but wanted half of that money back when the deal was done. When we had the financial settlement meeting with a judge in chambers, he agreed all the details re pensions etc, and also said that given the amount of money the ex was getting, i.e, a mortgage free new house, she should pay me at least some of the money that I was forking out due to living in a rented place and keeping her in the former marital home until it sold. This was all seven years ago, and I had told her that I didn't expect her to pay me the money until she sold the house. Since then she has become quite successful and decided to sell the hose to get somewhere smaller. She made a lot of money on the deal. Bought a new car, and gave our sons £1000 each towards cars of their own. I reminded her of the deal and her response was that she only agreed to pay me if she sold the house to move in with someone else or if a new partner sold their house to move in with her and so a large chunk of money would become available. It seems to me that whatever her relationship status, a large chunk of money has become available and I should get what I am due. The amount is only £1500 but the principle is clear. Firstly it was a legal requirement and secondly it was a moral obligation. I had never worried about it because we have always gotton along even after divorce and it never occurred that she would back down on the commitment. I don't really want to go to law over it as this would cause a rift, but I am really annoyed.

Is it lawful to make my dentist charge my deadbeat father for my dental issues? My father is a wife beater and he stopped taking care of his children when they are around 13 because I guess the tax money is not that high when you get older for children and he does not want to pay for high school or college fees. My mother takes care of all of us she pays all the bills, feed us, etc my father only pays the apartment bill because he lives with us. I hate my father he always tries to convince my mother to stop taking care of us and he gets mad every time she cooks for us because she stopped cooking for him because he stopped paying my mother to buy groceries about 5 years ago. which explains why we have separate fridges. Before my dad met my mom he had bad credit and he was not as successful as he is today and when he married my mother they shared a bank account but then about five years ago he went to the bank and took her name off the account which i think is illegal. i am so sick of my family being treated like animals. I cracked my tooth and i got a root canal and now it cracked again because medi-cal has supposedly not approved my crown yet. i used to go to a private dentist which my dad used to pay for all my dental fees. The dentist knows my father so he will just put the expenses on his bill but of course he does not know he stopped taking care of me though. I'm 17 by the way and i want to get all my dental issues taken care of before i turn 18 and go to college so i won't have too many expenses to worry about. I'm just worried because I don't know if its illegal to have the dentist charge my father and i don't want him to hurt my mother. what should I do? Also can you back up your reason with legal terms thanks. Randy B I do live with him but I don' talk to him neither of us do! I live in California.

I am a Conservative and it's not fair how people judge me. Am I really a 'Wicked Tory'? Ok I consider myself a Liberal Conservative. I don't agree with every Conservative policy out there but I find myself affiliated with them because of the following. Firstly I don't think it makes me such a 'Wicked Evil Tory'. I prefer to look at the Social Philosophy of a Political Party's Ideology because in some Situations the country is placed in you often have to twist and modify to adapt to the change. Here is why I find myself voting for a Conservative government as I consider myself Centre Right. - Self reliance - Responsibility. - Strong community - Family - Sustainability - Morality, Ethical values - Make work pay (rewarding the hard working. Support those who want to find work and pursue a forfilling career). - Free market - Supporting those who NEED it not this benefit culture of spongers who are very well capable of working but just choose not to. NEETs. - Less state intervention in everyday peoples lives. -Two fingers and a BIG NO to a BIG NANNY STATE. -I love our European neighbours, such rich cultures.. of course im all for cultural exchange, multicultural society and trade. A Political union is not neccessary and hurts Sovereignty for those countries in the EU. No to a United States of Europe. Or itleast hold a referendum for the British public, we had one on the EEC (Trade) not the EU (Political Integration). I don't think the way the EU is run is very democratic at all. Its being imposed all over Europe and is about Protectionism within Europe. Not open to the good points of Globalisation and it is very prejudice towards those outisde of the EU. - Tuition fee's? Im for the rise because I don't believe the tax payer should pay for MY degree. I am responsible for it not them. Why should a Lorry driver without a degree pay for mine? I don't think my parents should pay for it but I understand for others your parents mightl I mean you could pay them back 0% interest :). Here's whats happening - Students will still get a loan to cover the entire amount of the fees, meaning they won't have to put up any of the money themselves. - Students still won't have to pay back the loan until they are earning a certain amount. - If the student's salary goes up so does the amount they pay back (the same as now), however if their salary goes down they will also pay less or none if it goes below the threshold again. - After X amount of years (25-30, I'm not sure) the remainder is written off. At the end of the day, when you reach the age to go to UNI you are an adult and I believe adults should have responsibility towards their Degree, finance etc and not rely on the state so much (taxpayer's money). I believe the rise in tuition fee's is fairer to the taxpayer . Infact it isn't even a rise it's just shifting the bill from the taxpayer to the Individual. In fact students have it better than some countries, itleast there is a cap at £9000. You'll be an adult, take responsibility. The loans are very flexible. Sure you'll have a bit of debt but depending on your income you'll only pay back certain amount per month as long as you're employed earning more than £23k. If you become unemployed you stop repaying until you're employed again. After something like 30 years and not payed it off it's written off. If you want a degree you should pay for it as it is your responsibility not everybody else's. Look at this hardship in a positive light. Most of you are capable of being successful and holding your own burden of responsibility to become a forfilled independent adult who can put so much more back into society. That is why I am not protesting against these rises. It could be so much worse but it seems flexible and fair to me. Well thats my opinion :) Sure while we're growing up we tend to take a lot from society (Parents, State education, healthcare, no taxes etc). Once we've grown up we give back soo much more to society than we ever took out. I don't mean just monetary wise. We take a lot out till we're Young adults then we give back so much more till we reach our ripe old age. Which in itself is good for a nationwide community :). Think of like society has a small investment in young people and society gets a huge return in years to come. Am I really a 'Wicked Tory'. I look onto the left side of Politics too and try to understand, in fact I do agree with some things such as Minimum wage which is a great example... I consider myself Open minded which is why I don't HATE lefties, I disagree with them mostly but I respect their opinion im sure they have reason for believing it, infact I've learnt from some of their things. Only little though. I am 17 and I have noticed most young people are Lib dem or Labour which is a shame I wish they looked at the Philosophy of Ideology behind Political Parties :/. I'd like to add I am not rich. I have always had St I have always had Statde Education. Parents are Conservative (Mum is a teaching assistant public secotr) My dad is a Lorry Driver. I am not rich and we're living fine we have what is essential and often more for luxuries. Im grateful for what I have. :) Sorry I posted this on Yahoo.com and not UK.. I am talking about UK politics :) Haha I would go for US presidency but I can't as I am a British Citizen sorry :(.

Should I switch from comcast to at&t u-verse just to save $60-$80 for 3 months? If I stick with the internet I have now, which is comcast, my discounted contract will end, and I would have to pay $65/month for 3 months instead of the $40/month I'm paying now. But if I switch to AT&T U-verse, I would only pay $20/month and $70 for their U-verse modem thing. Overall, after 3 months, I would save about $60-$80 if I switched over to AT&T. I move to a new place after the 3 months. I could also downgrade my current comcast internet to an extremely slow speed of 1 Mpbs upload for $40/month. Is saving $80 worth it? AT&T internet has the WORST service! I originally tried to order AT&T DSL (not comcast) last year. After my order was successful, I invested in a modem/wireless router for $65.00 from Amazon. When I tried to connect the AT&T internet after the activation date, however, it didn't work. I called their service for over a week and spoke to 3-4 different representatives...some more than once. They just kept tossing me back and forth. It's like they have no organization or communication within the AT&T customer service network. I just kept repeating my problem over and over again with the same set of people. And then finally, one of them decided to call the technician who was supposed to activate my internet and found out that the wire outside was broken or something. It had been a week, and they didn't even bother to call me about that! I HAD TO CALL THEM! They didn't know how long it would take to fix it, so I ordered comcast. I was so angry, because I already bought the modem/router. Since I already invested in the modem/router, I decided to wait until my discounted comcast contract ended to get AT&T. Now's that time. But guess what?! They don't offer AT&T DSL anymore! Now, they only have U-verse! And they're asking me to buy and invest in another modem for $70.00. Since I can't use that modem/router I bought, then there's no point in switching over to AT&T, right? Can I trust them? Since I'm moving (to I don't know where at this moment), I don't even know if they offer U-verse there. If I stick with comcast, should I just buy a modem now instead of renting it every month for $5? I hate AT&T internet. I'm aware that I'm complaining about this via AT&T Yahoo. Part of this question was to complain about AT&T internet's terrible service. Thanks for hearing me out.

I want to kill myself!!!? Why the hell is life so frustrating. My mom is so freakign annoying she ALWAYS comes into my room and just sits there doing computer in MY ROOM. she leaves me no privacy at all! she wakes me up early like at 9 am even if i don't freaking have class. I can't get a freaking job and my parents won't let me drive cus I don't have insurance and they're only putting me on insurance once I get a job. I've been driving for 2 years already and I'm 18.. I want to be able to drive to school which is only 10 minutes away and my dad wants me to carpool with him in the morning and I have to wait for my mom to pick me up after my classes.. why not just let me drive? because my mom has to pick me up anyways.. we're not even saving any gas!! Then I have calculus hw (and calc test in 2 days) which I'm trying to do with a friend and she doesn't even help at all and responds like every 5 minutes. I want to sleep early and just because she has to sleep late anyways doesn't mean I have to too!!! And not only the calc hw I have to revise an article for someone, i'm not going to finish anytime soon ... i've had barely any sleep for the past week.. I can't get a job and I've been messaged by scammers twice which pisses me off so much cus they tricked me into sending them my resume first and now they have all my personal info, I just want to cut those scammers throats and I just had a job interview where the interviewer was so freaking picky about babysitting a freaking 1st grader and they only pay $10/hr to tutor in hw, piano, french, whatever crap i mean what the hell. I'm about to just kill myself or kill someone!! OMGGGG!! why the hell can't I solve this freaking calculus problem?!!!!!!!!!!!?!? I feel so freaking stupid how the hell am I going to get anywhere in life if I don't know how to solve this problem?! All my dreams are ruined.. I'm gonna die, no one wants to help me.. Why do I keep on living and why the hell am I so stupid that I'm ranting on Yahoo answers where no one even gives a damn. I want to waste time but at the same time I don't WANT TO! I want to relax but I don't want to because I have work to do. and when I do relax, i feel like a complete failure, like I can't do anything successful in life and that i don't have enough motivation if I relax. I hate my life, I'd rather keep on dying and be born as Paris hilton so at least I can have everything I want and be relaxed without worrying and act stupid and not get into trouble and still have money and fame or whatever. Why did God (if god even exists) make poor people and rich people, unless he wanted his secrets to be exploited (or atleast attempted to be, by scientists). Actually, nevermind, success doesn't come from the conflict between poor/rich it comes from pride.. even if you're poor you still have pride.. so why the hell did god make us have pride?!?! why did he make us so greedy? is he evil??? I don't think I believe in God then, I think I'll just believe in the system of life and death, and that's it. Don't you dare say "I think you should visit your psychologist or whatever" That's the most useless answer, and I don't freaking need one nor want one! on the weekends!! and I sleep at like 3-4 am most days cus I have so many things to do, so that's only like 5-6 hours of sleep if I wake up at 9. What the hell, you think insults will make me "wake up". How stupid are you? I'm mostly posting this because I want to know if there is a mental issue or something I might have, I don't want to go see a psychologist and end up having to be registered in my permanent profile as being severely depressed or suicidal or whatever! How the hell can I ever live a normal life if I do that??? I just want solutions, even if they might not work, so that I can try and just relax for once! If I had a 1st grader I would not care who babysitted him/her as long as they did not smoke or do drugs or anything bad (especially if it was only for 2 hours a week). I'd just need someone trustworthy, but this family actually had me bring in a resume and went overboard in asking me questions about the youtube thing: I cannot relate to her at all.. our lives have nothing in common except for maybe the depression part. This didn't help me at all, I don't care about things like 9/11 either, I was never affected by it. I'm not super patriotic, I'm not a terrorist or are scared of terrorist. If terrorists happen to kill me, I wouldn't give a damn because I'm dead and I don't know. Allyson, are you stupid enough to think that I would act like that during my job interviews or when I'm hunting for a job? I am not as stupid as you that I would act like a crazed maniac at places I shouldn't act like one. I do not take any medication either. What would you rather do? take unnecessary medication and die early or act crazy online? Why did you try to answer something you have completely no idea about? Have YOU ever been mentally ill or even think about how a mentally ill person might feel or act? Rokotsu, I commend you for answering exactly how I expected someone would answer. Very good insight! If I was born in Africa I wouldn't even have the time to think like this and just live like an animal, living day to day trying to small on bread crumbs off the floor. BUT I'm here, ok? I have the opportunity to be a doctor, or ceo of some big company. Do I take the chance? OF COURSE! Do people in africa have that chance? NO, not really, only by god's luck could they have the same opportunity as me. If I did everything by the minimum like just give up on my calculus hw, sleep in, ignore mom, would you say I am taking that opportunity I have? All I'm doing is just wasting a good life that could have been some poor african girl's. THAT IS WHY I'M SO FUCKING FRUSTRATED because I cannot live up to my potential when I should easily be able to based on the resources I have! I'm just a waste of a good life! YES Those are as big of a problem as the problem a poor person has with finding food? our environment is different, our expectations and goals are different. DO YOU UNDERSTAND??? Just because I hate myself doesn't mean I'm going to just sit here and do nothing for the rest of my life. Because I hate myself, I would work harder to improve it. There are different kinds of people in the world. I'm that kind of person. And when I face a problem, I'll get angry and pissed over it but I still wouldn't give up because that would make me more pissed. I just want to know how to relax (without feeling bad) being in this kind of cycle. ... Yes I am a typical selfish teenager.. I am so selfish that I would rather kill a dog than myself. You are a typical selfish adult as well. Everyone is selfish, is this the first time you've ever hear that? Also, you are a very typical mom, very conformed and defensive. You use your friends as evidence. Let me tell you what, that's called a biased sample, ok? Not everyone uses a resume, and just because they don't do that means that they don't care about their child and should not have any. Why don't you tell that to the millions of mothers in third world countries? Just don't have kids because you wouldn't care enough about them. Even here in America, with a renowned high divorce rate, you would be able to pick out everyone who you expect to have a divorce and tell them to not have kids cus it's not good for them (the kids). Resume or not, the child is going to grow up the same way depending on how the parents act or what happens at school. You don't need a resume to tell you if the babysitter is trustworthy and does not do drugs or alcohol at all. All you need to do is ask them and see how they behave when you first meet them. A resume does not show the real person, just simple questions and appearance are enough. Even if the resume said they were from harvard and the person "looked" friendly, they could still be a pedophile. So I don't understand why you have to go through lengths such as a resume to find a babysitter. You should be able to know by their initial impression. Rokotso, reminding me about japanese students (and it's not just japan, i know) makes me even crappier. I should work hard like them but why can't I? I want to but I always just crawl to my comfort zone and never challenge myself. "You're suicidal because of f*cking calculus." I'm not suicidal, I'm just angry and frustrated.. I say that out of exaggeration when I'm really mad. If I'm struggling with calculus and japanese students are struggling with not only calculus but other subjects like english and other important classes, then what does that make me? That makes me feel like a more ultimate failure! How is that supposed to make me thing "Oh yeah, haha thank god I'm not them" I'm not those stupid people who think that way! I'm more like "God I wish I was them, pushing myself to the highest limit!" But like I said, even if I want to , like I say I'm going to I become so depressed and frustrated when I can't overcome even the smallest hurdles! Also, I know my parents are caring, but there is a point where it can be annoying. And you can't help but feel it's annoying, and sometimes feel trapped. Haven't you ever felt like that? It's like living with an overprotective mother who does EVERYTHING for you. I know I should appreciate it but I don't! There are somethings I want to do in life that my mom doesn't have to do with me! Like driving a car.. I don't care if it's cus she cares about me, I know that! I just want a little freedom from her.

should I stop supporting my mom? I run a very successful locally owned and operated business and my father is my manager. I make a descent amount of money and don't have too many financial worries. But, my mom just got out of an abusive relationship and had to start all over again, and she found a new apartment a little over a month ago in Sept. and can only pay half her rent, because she can't work due to disability and receives social security benefits. I pay the other half her rent. I send her a check every month, and im getting sick of always giving her money when she asks, and when I refuse she bitches at me makes me feel sorry for her until I give in. It's driving me up the wall. I'm 25 and shes in her mid 40's. Since she supported me all her life, by basically raising me all by herself, she thinks I should return her favor. Should I keep supporting her or stop?

I need help? I'm 17 and will be kicked out of my house if I don't join the military.? Hello everyone I would like to hear everyones opinion on what I should do as many more people out there with much more life experience than myself. I am 17 years old and I will be 18 in 6 weeks. I have had my share of screw-ups and was beginning to get my life back on track when I had some bad luck. I totaled my car on my way to work. I never thought one accident could screw my life up so bad but it did. It was the last straw that broke the camel's back. This is my third accident and I've received two tickets (3 if I get another one for this accident). Insurance dropped me and I am 95% sure that I will lose my license. If the cop issues a ticket for this last one then I will. My dad wants me to join the military, the airforce to be more specific. He is certain that, at this point, is is the ONLY option and the only way I will succeed in life. I beg to differ since I believe you can do anything if you set your mind to it. I want to go to college, more specifically I want to be an attorney. My dad say he wants to help me and he will in any way he can, but in his eyes that is by going into the military. If I don't, he is done helping me and is kicking me out of the house in 6 weeks. My parents just split up a few months ago so my mom is not in the picture anymore. I also dissenrolled from school around Thanksgiving of my senior year ( I know, bad move, and I regret it 100% but I spoke to my guidance counselor and it is too late to return). I plan on getting my GED and still have high hopes of becoming a very successful attorney. I know the military is a good option and have done quite a bit of research but my main concern is leaving my girlfriend who I am absolutely in love with. We talked about it and she will always be there for me no matter what I decide and we plan on getting married before I leave if I decide to go. I don't know what to do. I don't want to do into the military, but I know it will be tough if I don't on my own, working, and going to school at the same time. I know if will be tough and I will greatly struggle especially without a car or license, but I also believe you can do anything if you set your mind to it. My jobs only pays $7.50/hr. I was making $15.00/hr working construction under the table but can no longer do that because I don't have a car and I was commuting to New Jersey. Also, I don't know if welfare or food stamps is an option if I move out so let me know about that if you have any knowledge regarding that. In my father's eyes, if I don't go I am doing absolutely nothing to help myself and therefore he won't help me. My dad wants my decision by tomorrow and I have given it much thought, but I still don't know what to do as it is my life were talking about and I want to make the right decision. Right now I am leaning towards not joining but I really do not know. Please let me what you think I should do. I appreciate all your responses in advance. Thanks for all your responses so far. At this point, I don't think I can leave my girlfriend for 4 yrs just like that. I have been doing some research on the Army National Guard and the Army reserves so I would be able to stay around with my girlfriend, keeps working, and hopefully still make my dad happy. Is the National Guard worth it? Benfits, pay and all and still a chance of being deployed. Thanks again and please feel free to email me at Snowboarder1591@yahoo.com if you would like. Thank you Thanks for all your responses. Anyone else feel free to voice your opinion. If I join we are getting married before I leave. On that note, does anyone know how it works with a military spouse. You know housing and all. Also, what about the delayed start program. Thanks again

Can you help me list which facts Fox news watchers are unaware of? The UN inspectors all agreed that Iraq was no threat. Pre war Meaning Bush was lying. Most Iraqis think we are an invading force that will never leave. The top 1% own 42% of the wealth but only pay 23% of the federal taxes. They tend to think that socialism is a failed system of govt when most successful countries are more socialist than we are. They do not know that our corporations use our govt to coerce other countries into letting the corps control their resources. Creating hatred for america, this is the second largest cause of 9/11. Our support of israel and its use of aggression in the muslim world is the single greatest cause. Our federal reserve is a private bank that we pay interest and allow to control our currency, with consequences far greater than anyone admits.

When will some U.S.A. Citizens realized that nothing the government creates is free..? It is our TAX DOLLARS...which pay for EVERY FAILED or successful (military only) program. When will some of us get that this money does not COME from a MAGIC Pony with a glittered mane. Most of us who make more than a dollar annually GIVE back to our community, our FRIENDS, our FAMILIES, our local CHAPTERS, and our STATE PROGRAMS. You see we don't NEED the Government to MAKE US. We DON'T need a MANDATE.

Free spay/neuter in San Antonio? I have a 1 yr and 3 month old Australian Shepherd who I recently rescued off of the streets. My vet has agreed with me that he is definitely too aggressive/hyper and I should consider getting him fixed very soon. At first I didn't want to, but I walk him twice a day for 30 min to an hour and he is still too hyper at home and shows many behavioral problems. I have even paid for a trainer which was only successful enough to potty train him. I work with him all day and it's very exhausting. He is also trying to mate with our chihuahua all of the sudden so I finally decided it needs to be done. I am 17 and I've basically spent all my money on this dog and my family cannot afford to neuter him. I live in San Antonio, Texas and I've heard of places doing it for free but I can never find them when I search around online and my current vet is not too helpful with this (probably because they want to make money and have me do it in their office lol). If anyone knows of a place who will do this for free please let me know!

If you never had to pay taxes at all but everything you own goes to the government when you die is it fair? You keep every dime you earn during your life the only catch is when you die it all goes to the government. I guess it would be fair if you could have a joint estate with your spouse but your children are on their own. Under this system the only way to be successful would be to work hard no one would just have it handed to them, or have an advantage over anyone else.

TCI group Telling the truth when they say you get paid at home for stuffing envelopes? ...? I was lookin in the employmant guide and I saw 2 numbers for envolope stuffing one is called TCI but they are asking for a fee. I will do it only if womone tells me that they were successful with doing it. Check it out the numbers is1800-796-657 and 1800-832-0375 and tell me if it's legit.

what should nascar do about "start and park" cars? finally, an answer to that nagging question i have had as to why every nationwide race seems to have four or five drivers out of the race before the first commercial break - so called "start and park" cars. according to a surprisingly coherent article by kenny wallace on speedtv.com: ================== Have you ever received a $3,000 parking ticket? Rumors are floating that the NASCAR Nationwide Series is considering handing them out. But only to certain teams. A “start and park” car is one fielded by a team who has no intention of running the entire race. They qualify for the race, take the green flag, put three laps in the books and then head for the garage, claiming they suffered a transmission problem or an engine or power steering failure. Then they pocket anywhere between $10,000 and $12,000 before all the fans have even found their seats. NASCAR is evaluating how to deal with these cars and we’re hearing rumblings they may elect to pay only $3,000 to finishing positions 36th through 43rd, figuring this will curb the “start and park” habit. For instance, if Dale Earnhardt Jr. finishes 43rd, he would receive a whopping $3,000. No one would ever accuse him of “starting and parking,” but his paycheck - $3,000. Last weekend at California, 43rd paid $20,834. The “start and park” teams spent $8,000 to $10,000 to make the trip, retired early and banked the rest. Actually, we have only about 28 or 30 teams with the intent of running the entire race each week. This $3,000 will not cover the cost of these teams hauling their cars and crews to the track and would therefore make no business sense for these owners. The amount it costs to run any given Nationwide race depends on where the event is held. Obviously, trekking all the way to California is expensive, totaling at least $10,000 between airfare, hotel rooms, fuel and a couple of sets of Goodyear tires. But it costs another $10,000 or more to run the whole race because teams must purchase three or four additional sets of tires at $1,700 a set; all those laps place more wear on the motor and it must be rebuilt sooner; plus the cost of flying in over-the-wall guys and the risk of wrecking a race car during the course of the race. So, why do we even have this situation on our hands? Historically, “start and parks” usually surfaced during downturns in the economy, which we’re all full aware describes the past several months. We saw this in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series five or six years ago and everyone raised hell about it. But all of a sudden, the economy headed upward, the problem resolved itself and now we’re back to 43 strong Cup cars entered on a regular basis. But during that time, NASCAR didn’t move in with a solution. Everyone’s idea was to only start 36 cars but I reminded them that these top-notch teams raking in millions of dollars will want 43 starting spots when the economy recovers and everyone finds sponsors again, because the more sponsors they put on the track, the more money they’ll make. Trust me - these teams do not want to pull into the garage after three laps. But there are some people in NASCAR who race for a living. The only way they can survive in this economic climate is to start and park. Some can’t attract and land sponsors so they do what is necessary to avoid closing their doors and laying off employees. They don’t start and park because they like it. When there are no sponsors and therefore no money, the only viable alternative is to go straight to the garage weekly. So, why would the large, successful teams even care enough to complain? These guys certainly aren’t stealing wins and top fives from the frontrunners and don’t mean any ill will. They’re out of everyone’s way – literally. I think the reason for concern is the teams who race for wins are actually losing money and a lot of the “start and park” teams are making money. Rusty Wallace Inc., for example, is spending all their money to run 10th. The “start and park” teams are making more than my brother’s team. But it’s easy to pass judgment and condemn these teams when you’re sitting on a $6 or $7 million budget. I see a different side of this debate after talking to my car owner Jay Robinson. My advice to those worried about this issue is to let it be. If it doesn’t affect you, just let it go. However, money or no money, it comes down to pride. I will quit racing before I ever start and park a car. If an owner ever asked me to do it, I would climb out and walk. If these guys want to start and park, go for it. But I prefer to start and race. ================== THE QUESTION: Should nascar do something like this to try to "solve" the "start and park problem" or should they just let it be and wait for better days?

think too much and too sensitive when people comment, what should I do? I live abroad and go home once a year. Most of friends/relatives know I am a very sensitive person and many deal with me very well. But I have few friends/relatives who just try to prick me all the time by passing some comments either on me and or my situation. I see two kinds of people. Type1 is when I go to see them, they do not ask anything about me as they are worried if they ask and I answer it may show I am doing well. So they wont ask anything, but always try to indirectly convince they are doing better than me. Type2 is when they see me it probably reminds them of their failures in life as they are not as successful as me, so they just try to comment on me directly or REG my job or my life aboard saying that "oh you live in UK, means you have to wash your own vessels, clean your own car, what's the point earning there when you cant see your family" etc. These things piss me off a lot. As I only go to pay a courtesy visit and I get all this in return. Please help how to deal.

How do i learn to share with women when back in the days, women didnt like me and never paid attention to me? In high school growing up i was always the nice guy in school. I was respectful to women and to people in general. Growing up women never paid attention to me UNLESS they wanted something. I never had a girlfriend through high-school, been shot down multiple times i cant even count. Girls were usually dating the jocks/badboys etc. So i just kinda stayed to myself are being rejected, never had that girlfriend or just a good friend (girl) that i can just hang out with or just go out to a movie or talk to about my problems. So i ended up going to school and got two degrees in engineering, moved to a better neighborhood, bought a house, car and a truck and have a good successful job. So now because of this, NOW i have women coming around at work, girls in my old neighborhood asking how i been and asking me to go out to dinner but now that i'm pretty well off. i'm just not going to start showering girls stuff or with anything, no gifts, no flowers, no candy. I don't think its fair that all of a sudden just because i'm bless that girls who turned me down in the past now just expect to receive things. One girl i known for about 10 years, never gave me a chance, never wanted to date me or anything is asking me for $1,000 to cover her rent? She asked me at our high school reunion, she was the girl in school who i really liked and she ended up marrying the jerk, and he left her stuck with 2 kids, doesnt pay child support, doesnt see his kids or no type of financial support, why do women only turn to the good guys when their in need of help?

How does this wedding sound. Do you think I'll be disappointed when its all said and done? After what seems like YEARS of searching, I think we finally found the perfect venue. Its a YMCA. Now before you judge me, hear me out. We live in upstate, NY, smack dab between Saratoga and Lake George (LG being one of the most popular vacation destinations in the northeast and Saratoga being famous for the race track). We have literally thousands of venues to choose from but all were either too expensive or just not us. In northern LG there is a "resort" called Silver Bay. It is a YMCA in the sense that it offers what seems like unlimited amounts of activities for people of all ages, as well as had lodging on campus (they have a large, quite nice hotel but also dorms and lodges). If we choose to go with this place, we will be having our ceremony close to the water. I dont think much will be needed as far as decorations for this space as the views are gorgeous. I love the look of the shephards hook placed at the end of each isle with a pomander attached ( http://media.theknot.com/ImageStage/Objects/0003/0050486/large_image.jpg ). I plan to make these myself using carnations. Carnations get a bad rep but if used right, they can be quite lovely. We are both as far from religious as a couple can get so it will be a very quick ceremony. I'm thinking about asking a cousin who I am very close with to get ordained and marry us. If that doesnt work out, we will just hire a JOP. Silver Bay offers a few different choices as far as catering. All of their banquets are buffet style. They have a more traditional dinner menu (beef, chicken and fish) but they also have what they call the "Upgraded BBQ". Basically its BBQ ribs, chicken, corn on the cob, baked beans, baked potatoes, tossed salad & strawberry shortcake (I'm hoping to get a slight discount since we wont need the desert). They offer this for $21.00 ($10.50 for kids). The traditional dinner is twice as much. This venue doesnt supply the alcohol but we are permitted to bring our own. We pay a per-person per-hour charge for the alcohol because their servers will serve the guests their alcohol. I'm totally okay with this charge because this way, the guests have no idea that we supplied our own alcohol. My fiance also assures me that this will be considerably cheaper than having an open bar through the venue. We are leaning towards the BBQ option. We are planning on getting married memorial day weekend 2011. I personally think that a BBQ reception on that specific weekend is definitely suitable. The wedding site is atleast an hour drive for pretty much everyone, so we assume that a number of the guests will probably stay the night. They resort will even host a private bonfire for us and our guests. I figure we will purchase a bunch of smore making supplies and hopefully we will have some beer left over from the wedding. I think this would give us the perfect chance to relax with those nearest and dearest. They also offer a brunch banquet option for pretty cheap. If the budget allows maybe we will arrange this for the guests who decide to stay (we will know ahead of time since they will have to make reservations). How do you think this sounds? My fiance and I arent really high maintenance people. We would be just as happy staying home and having burgers on the grill as we would going out to a nice restaurant. The reason I ask if you think I will be disappointed is because for the longest time I wanted the big formal sit down dinner reception with white gloved servers. Well, then reality hit and I realized that there was no way we could afford this on our own. It is important to us to pay for our own wedding. Neither set of parents is overly wealthy but would give what they could. We're successful adults (only 23) who can afford to pay for our own wedding (within reason). If we wanted to take money from my parents, we could afford much more but I am a firm believer that unless you are 19 and still living in your parents house, you are an adult and should be responsible for covering the cost of your own wedding. I am secretly hoping that my parents buy my wedding dress but it would be okay if they dont. What do you think of the idea for our wedding? Think I'll be disappointed after the fact that I didnt go with the lavish, formal affair. Sorry this is so long. Thanks for the input.

Car Payment Reported Late for Month of April to Credit Bureau? Car payment due on the 7th of each month via ACH from checking acct. On 3/7, ACH was returned due to insufficient funds. Attempted to pay Honda Finance this money ($324/mo)online but wouldn't allow me to establ new ACH acct for a 1 time payment. Payment screen was unclear and deceptive where it automatically added the late car payment plus $30 fee for a grand total of $688 as of 3/7. Under this total was a box that stated "ADDITIONAL AMOUNT TO BE PAID". Next to this box had these words italicized "In addition to the scheduled ACH payment". The "scheduled ACH payment" that was shown was $688 (2 months). Knowing I didn't have 600, I waited until the 6th of April when I had extra money to cover just in case it was going to charge $688 instead of $324. Transaction successful only taking $324, with separate ACH for regular monthly payment. Car company reported late because paid on 6th, which is the 30th day. They refuse to remove this transaction given the circumstances. What do I do? Please answer this question: If the car payment was due on March 7th, what is the 1st date that they can report it late in April if reporting as 30 days late.

Why are people so cut-throat desperate to make it in NYC/LA/media when those industries are NOT all that? They're not the highest paying, there are many billionaires and millionaires and successful people around the world, even in the country that have NOTHING to do with NYC/LA, and yet people flock there and the surrounding areas, flock malls, nordstroms/neimans, plastic surgeons, EVERYONE wants to be rich, skinny, and hot, everyone acts like "OMG ITS THE MOST F*CKING IMPORTANT THING EVER...to be hot, famous, rich, pretty, plastic," whatever. Newsflash: MANY of these industries pay SH(T, only the top dogs get much, which eventually gets split and divided anyways, they have bills to pay, many in those industries are NOT, I repeat, NOT very bright people, many are just kids who didn't know what to do with their lives, and went there, it's also FULL with drama, drugs, bs, sex, all sorts of corruption. so I ask again, WHYYYYY in God's name, are people SO obsessed with HOLLYWOOD, nyc, etc? When in all reality, ...it's really NOT that great of a ..field.

Beware of this direct marketing scam company in Lincoln (UK)? and do not work for cobra elsewhere? This is about Eclipse promotions in Lincoln. They are a branch of Endeva Advertising in Nottingham and the Cobra group. I went for an interview and they completely treated me like **** and lied. They said I would be on a wage but when I was successful they didnt tell me it was a commision based job the other candidates told me. They tried made us start at 8am in the morning and didnt let us leave until midnight they were always trying to make me ferry people around in my car. The worst thing is we only had 3 hours to try selling and the rest of the time we had to fanny around in the office for free or travel aro8nd train to bus to train and not paying for travel. They completely lie to the donators! The job was door to door sales and to make people donate £1.50 by direct debit. We were told to say that 100% of the £1.50 the person donates will go straight to the charity whereas in fact, every penny goes to the hands of Endeva and they split the amount raised. Reps and these marketing companies are paid out of the money people pay and they choose how much goes to the charity. The reps travel throughout the UK but as far as I know eclipse and endeva travel across east midlands to leicester, sleaford, nottingham, chesterfield etc. Dont pay donate through these people, donate online so then youre getting the most out of your money to the charity. The charities they represent include NDCS, British Red cross, WWF, RSPB and more charities. And do NOT work for these people they will disrespect you, make you give up relationship's unless he/she also works for the company, make you cancel hospital appointments pre arranged, and if you wont let them use your own car, they will say "your car is knackered anyway" and will try to bully you into using it to ferry around the people who dont have cars. Someone on the web who also used to work for endeva said he was stripped of every sale he made just because he quit! These companies save so much money by not paying staff travel expenses, and not paying for labour. Unless you want all the disadvantages of being self employed with all the disadvantages of employment (stupid hours made by the company MONDAY - SATURDAY 80+ HOURS PER WEEK and commission only based pay during what little time you spend selling) STAY AWAY!

I only lasted 3 days. I gave it a shot and I left at the right time. The manager tried to make me cancel arrangements for a day at the scam.

How come their are not any riots in the United States? How come their haven't been any organized riots in the United States about the government? Their should be a new amendment that says that the government cannot recieve a pension. They can only be paid while serving office and that they can get their own retirement plans like the rest of the American people? Is it that hard to organize? The last major riot that that was successful that I can think of was in the 70s when the American people pressured the government in allowing 18 years to vote. There was also the teacher's strike...That was unsuccessful though. And it was a government workers strike so that does not count. What are your reasons for not organizing? Or had you ever attempted to organize? Currently voting hasn't really done anything... All of these shady politicians and they get so much money. Voting won't change anything...

How do I keep a successful man when I'm on welfare? I recently started dating a guy I knew in High School. He's a successful, educated, single father, and home owner. I'm a single mother of 3 on public assistance just starting college at the age of 35 living in an tiny apartment in a bad area. I have always dated thugs or bad boys, and a man like this is a blessing but also new to me. I'm concerned that I will become too much of a burden on him and eventually lose him. He can cook better than me. And I can't afford to take him out. Even though he's struggling financially he pays for dates although I know he's use to women that takes him or equally. He takes himself out from time to time to movies, dinner, etc. and he invites me and pays although he did these things alone when he was single. I don't want sex to be the only thing I can offer this man, but I really can't see what I can offer him in the long run until I finish college in 4 years. I borrowed $5 for gas to see him last week, before I was going to ask him for $5 to get home I found out he borrowed $50 from his dad to take me out that night. I know we don't have to go out all the time, but he will still have the burden of feeding me and me using resources at his home because we can sit up at my little apartment in front of my boys. I have brothers and they all have told me that men get tired of women in my situation real quick, especially if they are needy or always have their hands out. Can anyone give me any advice, because I don't want to lose this man.

How do u stay religious, when most of the world isn't, and when it can make you less likely to be successful? Many religions including Christianity say that you should abandon the world and not try to be successful according to the world's standards. Well then, that right there is dampening your ability to be a Donald Trump. Religion can take alot away from you, including worldly success,.so why side with it? Also, by being religious, you're going to have like notihng in common with most of the world, and I'm not saying that's a bad thing, we do have alot of negative attributes to the world....but it's like a hopeless belief system because..the world operates to the laws wills and lusts of man...and they'll treat you like..you don't even exist, like you're a crazy person. For example...if you're going to do banking/talk to a banker, a businessman, an entrepreneur, computer expert..whatever the job may be, their main interest and what they know and how they think, believe me, is not centered around Christianity or other religions. They're not there memorizing bible scriptures! Believe me on that, and if you do all of that and come into contact with them, you'll look at them like they're weird people who just don't get it, and they'll look at you and treat you like a l0ser m0ron, believe me because I've been there done that. You're expected to work, have things, have kids, be a 'norm' of society, and just basically be like everyone else so to say, and if you're not people think there's sometihng very very wrong with you. They really do. Being Christian in this world...feels like, okay you can do good things for people and what not, but most people don't care, they're after their own image and money and success and they won't even respect you for being Christian. It's a weird thing,...when you're religious, it's hard to relate to anyone. Man's natural ways of being, their lusts, their drives/ambitions, etc, are NOT spiritual in nature. Unfortunately. So then how does one stay religious, especially in friggin America, where you're expected to work, succeed, go throughout schooling, and do all sorts of things? I mean it's America...if you don't work here and conform and do what the rest of society does,. you're outcasted, seen as poor, made fun of...all sorts of things. And my argument is that religion/Christianity make it WORSE for you to succeed, and fit into the world and society, and make your life alot harder from that aspect, and that it's going to cause you alot of mental anguish and torture, because the more you grow religiously, the less you'll have in common with humanity and the world, and...that will cause problems. Especially when it comes to paying bills, 'advancing' with technology, keeping up with things. I mean you'll just almost become like the unibomber or something! If you take it THAT far over that long of a time frame, I CAN see that happening! so then...what's the answer. To be religious or not.....and how does one stay religious..when it more then likely will make your earthly physical life (which religious people don't value as much as their eternal life) horrible? Religion in a way can royally mess up this one and only physical life that we have, and will make all these promises for the afterlife, but...they place like 0 value on THIS life. I'm confused and distraught, so if someone can make this all sound good to me, I encourage you! Most of the world IS religious, but ..that doesn't mean that they're doing a great job at BEING religious.

Why do people pay so much for happy pills when they only make you dependent, and amplify your symptoms..? The dependency is a built in method of insuring you will keep using them, and keep paying the major stockholders. And everyone's killing themselves to make them rich! WHY? Do people feel successful when addicted to anti depressants? I mean, according to modern pharmaceutical theory, crack qualifies as an effective anti-depressant, because it makes you temporarily happy, magnifies your depression in it's absence, costs alot and has bad physical side effects. Not to mention all those pills have been proven to worsen emotional problems. There is no magic chemical remedy that man can make in a laboratory, that doesn't have adverse affects. How would humans have made it so far without it if we needed it?

I hate my boyfriends sister? Please HELP!!!? So iv been with my boyfriend for 2 years i have never really liked/trusted her but recently its been bad. His family was homeless when we met and his sister shell is 1 year younger then me she was 16 when we met. she lived with their brother and his wife and when they got a divorce she live with the wife holly. Holly told shell that if she stayed in high school she would keep paying for shells cell phone and shell decided to drop out and holly was stuck paying for a phone that wasnt being used because it was on a contract. then she moved in with her parents in her uncles house where she shares a room with my boyfriend in a small attic then started hanging out with this guy who is like 50 and i think she moved out because holly wouldn't let her talk to this guy. but then she asked my boyfriend mike if he would put her on his phone plan and that she would pay $50 a month with money she gets from that guy. then she decided to get her ged because this guy talked her into it. and he even paid for it and he would give her money all the time and her parents dont even care i feel like i was the only one who did. then she decided to go to college just for the experience. btw this guy left his wife and daughter to be with shell like that doesn't make it anymore obvious. one day he took she mike and me to a hockey game front row and when we were on the way home he was like shells going to be the only successful one in this car and this was before she started college or thought about it and he was flirting with her right in front of mike and he didn't care. now he left her for his family and i feel like shes using my boyfriend he is stuck paying for her phone and she cant help and she uses his phone for the internet and he gets stuck with no phone she she could let him use hers but she wont and shes supposed to use the internet to job search but all she does is watch movies on his netflix that he pays for too his whole family uses him cause there to lazy to get a job. and im not just saying that if you knew them you would know what i mean. and none of them help pay rent but mike is stuck buying everything for everyone and has to drive his siter around and i just hate her so much i hate hate hate hate her

In high school and don't know what i want to be when i grow up? All i wanna do is travel. I don't want a boring career and a mediocre life. I just want to see the world. But society always looks down on this kind of perspective. Because apparently the only way you can lead a happy and successful life is if you have a well paying career. What do you think?

Why doesn't my stuff sell on Ebay? Its all name brands and CHEAP? I been selling on Ebay for a while. I have tried 3 different stores trying to find the best things to sell. I have sold adult toys which was hard cuz Ebay is so strict on what you can and cant show and say when it comes to adult stuff. So that store ended. Then it was Disney stuff and that was only successful at Halloween time cuz of the costumes. That ended. Now its name brand clothing like Aeropostale, Abercrombie, Hollister etc and my stuff is DIRT CHEAP and it still doesnt sell!! My shipping is very close to exact so I end up not getting reimbursed for time to the post office, supplies like tape and envelopes, boxes, stuffing, etc. A lot of sellers overprice shipping and they still sell their stuff! So why isnt my stuff selling? I even have stuff for .99 and it still doesnt sell. I just paid $140 in seller fees and I still owe another $100 and if I dont sell stuff QUICK to pay the $100 I will be suspended. Heres an example.. Hollister jeans for $9.99 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280441385835&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT you can click on view sellers other items at the right if you wanna take a look at what i have. I have boxes and boxes of new stuff to list but until I pay the $100 I am on hold and I cant list anything...but how do I pay it if I cant sell anything??? HELP

How successful is door to door marketing? My cousin went for an interview the other day for a company that specializes in door to door marketing (for charity organizations) and was invited back to their office again yesterday for an orientation. Apparently the manager made it seem like the perfect job and was funny and humerous in nature (probably to get people smiling and laughing as such) and yeah, my cuz was basically asked when he could start and he said right away. So when he got home he called me up in tears because he didn't know if he'd done the right thing or not by taking the job. Apparently he would be only earning money based on successful marketing (not sales, more customer service or something along those lines) and yeah, the manager told everyone that in the first couple of weeks they would only be getting 2 successful marketing things per day or week to start off with. This doesn't seem fair in my opinion. It seems to me like slave laibor. You're slogging your guts out trying to make money and you'd be lucky to make any within a week and what you do make isn't exactly promising either, seeing as it's only what the customers want to give you for the charity you're promoting at the time. I personally don't think it's worth it, neither does my cuz, and he turned down the position this morning based on the opinions and facts from others and the job he would be doing in question. The hours were bad too, 1pm-9pm and the company would travel all over the place. Seems stupid. He could work in retail (wwhere hsi qualifications are) and make more money, and at least KNOW he's getting paid at the end of the day. Know what I mean?

What do women look for in men? Some say the man must be successful & have a great drive for moving ahead in life. While the same woman would look for affection elsewhere if her man turned into a workaholic or paid attention only to his career / passion. The same trouble arises the other way , when a man gives attention to his woman, she thinks the man doesn't have anything better to do. I have seen girls dumping their men (including me) on real absurd grounds. Somethings i just fail to understand what works for them! inputs please... Fidelity, honesty and love is assumed to be there

Is equality a right or only equal opportunity? Often on these boards, gender discrimination is demonstrated with outcomes instead of opportunity. For instance, when "proving" that there is gender discrimination in the workforce, stats on how much less women are paid are presented. However, it is rarely discussed and almost never shown exactly which part of an employers policy is biased against women. I contend that high levels of success in any part of a persons life will occur to the detriment of other parts of that person's life. What I am saying is that if you want to truly dominate the business world, you will likely have to discard any notions of a family or children. How many successful men have children who either hate or don't know them? So in a round about way, my question is this; Do women have a right to be equal or simply a right to equal opportunity? And how do you feel your answer to this question affects your position on feminism? EDIT: Rio-Just because they have families doesn't make them good husbands or fathers. Because they are all so savvy, we will likely never know for sure. However, if I was putting money on it, I'd guess they probably aren't nearly as good familymen as they are businessmen. EDIT: Deva-And the non sequiter goes to... Your answer is just a rant. Especially the last two paragraphs. The point is, you have the opportunity to never have children in the first place. If you choose to do so and it damages your career...so be it. Nobody has a RIGHT to be both highly successful and have a good quality of life. Usually it's one or the other and I'm fine with that so long as I get to choose the balance which is right for me. EDIT: Deva-I believe that there are many reasons why boys are falling behind in school. However, I believe that the same opportunity is there even if they have to work harder for it. Any other assumptions you'd like to make?

why is it that some people pay only attention to those who have become successful in their endeavor? sometimes i don't understand why these people i know personally seem to ignore my messages in face book when i know they have something in their mind to tell.

How do I get custody of my daughter, when the mother already has custody & we never went to court? The mother and I were together until my daughter was 6 months old and she moved back in with her parents. She hasn't worked at a job longer than a month in the last 3 years. I've been successful and paid for my ex fiance's living expenses while we were together so she didnt have to work. I supported her while she went to school after our daughter was born. I've documented from Dec. to March how much more I've had my daughter than her. The mom didnt even want to be with her on mothers day. I have my daughter more than the mom, live on my own, she lives with her parents and cant keep a job, and I pay her child support to go out to the bars and drink aparantly. My daughter is my life and I'm scared that if I can't get full custody I may lose her. I don't have much money to afford a lawyer but I have plenty of people to verify that I am the more suiteable and loving parent. Only problem is, is that I'm the father and that makes it harder for me to win.....I'm desperate for advise...... I live in wisconsin, my daughter is just turning 1 yr old.

What happens when models become too old to model? I mean people who work as models and nothing else. Do they have to get low-paying dead-end jobs? Or do they become TV presenters? If models are successful (which I know there isn't a huge chance of) and earn a lot of money, do they just retire young? I'm only asking this question out of curiosity btw.

Why are people with "successful" careers respected? (I asked this elsewhere but this is what Yahoo suggests, may as well try it). When I was in high school, I studied hard because I want to get into university, have a good career, and transcend those goofball students in class. Now I realize I couldn't have been more wrong. I got a piece of paper, I mean Bachelor's degree, in computer science, despite having no passion in the field, and I feel totally unmotivated to even look for a job. I don't even see, fundamentally, why is it a good thing to have a career. Why are people with high-paying, successful careers better than others? OK they make a lot of money so they can exert power. But I don't feel being rich will make me any happier. You could say they're pursing their passion. But just how do people get their passion? It's a mystery I could never figure out. Maybe they had role models I never had, or life experiences I've never experienced. But just because I've never found my "calling", does that make me inferior? You could say they're doing something more meaningful, but is spending most of your life kissing up to your boss and making him more money, with coworkers that will only be acquaintances because you could be fired any second, meaningful? You could say it's hard work. But I've studied hard in university and got better than average marks because in theory I'm learning something that has intrinsic value (in practice often not). I don't see the intrinsic value of getting a job. The only value of having a career that I see is that people respect them. I can try getting one, but I feel I'll likely fail because I lack passion, and don't know how to get it. I feel so hopeless that I'm seriously thinking about leaving society as I know it, and becoming a redneck or something for the rest of my life. TheFlowerLady: I appreciate your critical but honest remarks. But I did pay for university myself, not my parents.

Career Advice-- I hate my job, but love working for my boss..please help? So here goes...I work in NYC for a stressful, demanding, and frustrating company. I am damn good at my job regardless of the stress and frustrations that we ALL go though. The thing is, I work for a very cool, laid back, and respectable boss. He understands that the job is stressful, annoying, and that it can get the best of you at times. It gets the best of him as well. He's done everything in his power to reward me, promote me, and make me successful; and for that I am VERY grateful. This is why I am his right hand man in the company. I report to JUST HIM. In short, he's basically doubled my income in a little under 4 years. I went from basically making 50,000 a year to 100,000 a year. As I mentioned above, I live in New York City, where 100,000 a year really means nothing. Here is my issue: Last Wednesday I had my performance review for this year. On paper and verbally, the review went VERY VERY WELL. I had no complaints at all. Even with the small things he called me out on. Unfortunately, money wise, not so much. I must admit, in the past 4 years, I've been spoiled with promotions and astronomical pay raises. Pay raises ranging from 10,000-20,000 annually. Not this year! I got a whopping 3600 annual pay increase. What a nice punch in the stomach; great way to ruin the moment of me getting a good pay increase? LOL. Anyways, it's been bothering me for the past 4 days! I WORKED MY A$$ OFF this year ALONE than I have in the past 4 years combined....and he knows it, so why the low a$$ pay raise? I mean, granted, I did go wayyyy above and beyond willingly, but I did it for HIM (because he is a very good boss AND for me because I like being successful and making money--banking on a very good raise). I'm very confused, im very angry, and I don't know what to feel or do. Should I just keep my mouth closed and not say anything? I don't want to appear to be ungrateful because I really am grateful (and of course, I do make really good money for a single 28 year old), but when you go from clocking 10-20,000 pay raises a year, you kinda get used to it. A part of me wants to indirectly screw him over by not working so hard anymore and just doing the bare minimum? What do I do? Should I talk to him about it? or honestly just let it go?? Im not a stranger to hard work!! As I said, I will work my a$$ off for any person who is a cool manager, but why pay me so high in the previous years only to pay me 3600 this year. Any advice would help!

Does the game Monopoly teach kids to become evil successful wealthy adults? Should Parker Brothers be brought before Congress to defend themselves? Maybe they can come up with a game that has a 1 sided die, with only 1 number.........so we can all pass go at the same time. Or better yet, they can have "change" cards and when someone lands on a property you own (Boardwalk), you have to pay them!

What advice could you give me on getting on the right track to saving and being successful? I am 23 years old. Lived on my own since I was 18, Havent gone to school yet. I have very little money saved because I started to pay off my debt, from when I messed up when i was 18. I am going next week to enroll in school to start at the end of the month, to be a Floral Designer, which I dreamed of when I was young but forgot about it till I got a knock in the head. So I want to save money and pay off my debt and get my credit better. I am on the way to doing all of this, but what do you suggest? I dont go out and blow my money, only on food and gas and an occasional peice of clothing, which i never pay much for. I dont go to bars and stuff. So what do you suggest? I just want to be happy with what I do

Convincing parents for a Wii? My brother and I want a Wii, but we both can't afford. Not even his successful job can lend him extra cash for a Wii. However, I never get allowance either, but only good pay once in a blue moon for my "job." It's approaching my graduation, but who knows if I will be able to get a graduation gift this year(going to a new grade/school type.) I might ask for a Wii if it isn't too much to ask for, but my parents usually hesitate when I asked long ago. My parents may plan on getting a Wii soon for family time(the Wii Sports) and I'm thrilled. My brother and I really have eyes on our games that we're willing to do a lot for and play. Possible to convince my parents for a Wii as a graduation present? I'm willing to pay them however I can(I happen to have professions that please them.)

When one is very successful in business, what is a good response for denying a small/big loan to friends/fam? The only thing I could think of is telling them that any/all money that comes in has its proper place, such as bills, and a trust account and that it cant be pulled from where I put it...."?" Even if there is a lot of money sitting in the bank, I dont want to get in the middle of a 'friendly loan'. I have seen first hand, that many times people choose to not ever repay loans. I have figured, to never give out a loan. In the future, if there is someone who needs assistance, (and I choose to help) instead of them carrying on that debt, just give it to them, because if they dont pay you back, the two of you will carry a burden. So I just choose not to loan anymore. PS: As a youngster, I lent money out 4 times, ranging from $20-400. Not once was I ever repaid once in full....I guess they figured I forgot, or that I had money already, and that I wouldnt miss it or something. So now that I am an adult, and I am finally seing a great level of success from all of my hard earned work, I just want to have an excuse ready for in case this ever question ever comes flying at me from a really close friend/relative. What are some good excuses when they know you have money?

What will happen if the trophy wins dry up at United? I would apprecaite serious views on the following. If things get financially dire for a top 4 team the ramifications will be felt through out the proffesional game: There is a case to be made for the £666.7m of debt at Manchester United being manageable. Their revenues are strong and growing, so what is the problem? Most companies have debt - right? Perhaps a cautionary caveat may be worth adding. United have been highly successful in recent seasons, particularly last year. But even in such a successful year they didn't manage to service their debt. They paid off only £42 million of the £81 million due in interest payments last season. They have a “£515 million "senior" loan repayable at a rate pegged to the inter-bank rate, and a payment-in-kind facility provided by a consortium of hedge-funds that is effectively an equity stake in the club. (Daily Telegraph). “Interest on this PIK loan, payable at 14.25 per cent, is rolled up and added to the loan each year, so last year's declared figure of £152 million can be expected to grow to about £173 million. As a result the club's total debts of £667 million can be expected to rise. Hmmm…. so they are not making payments on what they owe already and the total debt is set to rise. And all this when they are so successful .. with change in the air and Fergie not getting any younger and the evergreens in the squad now finally starting to fade. What may happen if they have even one lean year? I doubt if the United "customers", as zealous as they are, would be able to make an iota of difference. Pack of cards anyone? If you can't be bothered to read this just ignore it please - thank you

How do I persuade someone to sell me something when money is not the only concern? I'm leasing a property and have a successful busines, but I want to buy the property from the landlord, because it would add more meaning to my efforts, knowing that I would be building equity instead of throwing rent away and have ownership in my place of business. My landlord, unfortunately, has a policy that he does not sell his acquisitions. He is very wealthy, with hundreds of millions in properties. How can I persuade him? My plan was to acknowledge his accomplishments and validate his self-interest but make the argument that this transaction would have a great impact on my life and future but only a marginal impact on his life and future. Suggestions? I have actually offered to pay a little more for the property, but he is not interested, and it's not a good idea. I think his concern is tax-related. At one time he was willing to sell but only because he had a property to swap.

How do I go about applying for a small business loan? -I'm 22 yrs old. ***Am I too young to be approved for a business loan? -I am about $4000 in debt (from medical bills only) but I have small monthly payment plans that I'm keeping up with. ***If you can prove that you are paying your debts off and that they are only medical related---can you still be approved for a small business loan? ***What is the minimum amount they usually give for a small business loan? What is the usual amount? ***When applying for one, do you apply in person, or on paper? Do you have a chance to show your business plans to the bank? Because I want them to know how profitable it will be, and how quickly I'd be able to pay the loan back. Basically what I'm asking in all of this is: Is applying for a small business loan very black and white, or does it all depend on if they trust that your business, specifically, will be successful enough to pay back the loan? ***********Also: Any tips?

Is my boyfriends ADHD to blame for our problems? I'm sorry if this is long, I spent awhile trying to type it so it was short and to the point but I just couldn't brief it up. Please don't be negative about how long it is, you can just move on after this sentence and not answer. I have a boyfriend who procrastinates alot. He has ADHD that has been untreated, and I am trying to determine if this is why he doesn't focus on me or our family. We have a 9 month old son and he is a wonderful dad to my 3 year old daughter. My partner has been making me feel like crap. When we got together I was super nice and understanding about him not being used to living with someone and tried to find us a nice routine to work together with. Unfortunately, he has the attention span of a 5 year old. He has fallen asleep while talking to me about any of my concerns, or problems. We get along super great but its tearing our relationship apart. In the beginning I was always so nice about it and I was patient, but now I have no patience and I yell. I talk to him about everything, and I mean EVERYTHING. I've sat down with him and explained how he is hurting me by not being more tentative to a situation, showing concern, how he seems to be careless, and most of all not working with me as a team. I ALWAYS have to make sure there are no TVS on because mid conversation he changes the subject. I almost slipped and fell while I was 8 months pregnant because of water he left on the floor from a shower. I had been asking him nicely for months not to leave water on the floor and told him I was scared of slipping and falling. Well, it just about happened, but it changed nothing. Even to this day still leaves water on the floor. The main problem now is that our son recently had surgery. He was born with undescended testicles and the hospital nurse told me he might have meant to have been a girl because his condition was rare. Despite what other doctors told me, I was freaked out, anxious, hurt, and depressed up until the day he had his surgery and the doc said it was successful.I burst into tears from happiness because I was so stressed out about it. When we brought our son home, my boyfriend said something that hurt me badly. "I didn't realize how stressed out you were until you cried today in front of the doctor and talked about the stress you felt about it." I was so upset when he said that because the day our son was born and I was told that awful news by the nurse...he didn't say jack shit about it other then this no care attitude and that our son would be fine. No emotions whatsoever...didn't ask any questions about it.I suffered severe depression and even talked to him about how I had my first suicidal thoughts. He didn't even blink. Within a day it was like we never had that conversation...no matter what I say, what I do, or how serious the conversation is, he forgets about it. He's loosened up alot since we met and he would get me anything I ask for materialistically... but i've really had to grill him to get him to hear me out...or to do some research so he was aware of our sons condition...even having him look into depression and adhd...but nothing ever changes. Materials are only temporary, I explained I have emotional needs. He now works from home and helps me even less...unless I order him around. He has procrastinated/forgotten chores, helping me out, BILLS sometimes. I mean they get paid but only when the electricity gets turned off. He is a super nice guy that is super passive. Avoids conflict and confrontation.Nothing works! I thought being persistent would have helped by now but he is not trying. Being nice didn't work, and being mean doesn't work. I've given him chances and even let some things go untouched for over 5 days! Why can't he overcome this? oh, ive tried everything...even the lists. have made him lists, but he doesnt make his own.on top of everything i take care of -- cleaning, laundry, educating my daughter, my son... i cant imagine why these things arent important to him...i dont believe they arent unimportant, but he will start a chore and 5 minutes later he'll be sitting at the computer and get sidetracked. ive tried restricting usage, making rules...which he only follows if im his shadow and constantly on his case. =(

Why immigrants don't embrace American freedoms and opportunities? Migrant Workers File Suit Against Pioneer Hi-Bred Brownsville Herald (TX) -- July 22, 2010 -- Twenty migrant farmworkers filed a federal lawsuit this week against Iowa-based seed corn producer Pioneer Hi-Bred International Inc., which they say bound them to live in unacceptable housing and paid them only a fraction of what they were promised for a season's worth of labor. Pioneer recruited the farmworkers from throughout the Rio Grande Valley last summer to detassel corn in Indiana, according to papers in the case filed Tuesday in the U.S. Southern District Court of Texas. In the lawsuit, the workers allege the company lured them to travel across the country for the jobs by guaranteeing stable pay and substantial bonuses. Instead, Pioneer failed to pay them minimum wage, took illegal deductions from their wages and forced them to live in rundown, overcrowded housing, workers state in court filings. Many paid their own transportation to and from Indiana, and work conditions in the fields were poor, according to case records. The workers had "dirty and inaccessible port-o-potties and warm and inaccessible drinking water," as stated in the lawsuit. Some workers were exposed to pesticides when a crop duster sprayed a field while they detasseled corn, the lawsuit says. Texas RioGrande Legal Aid (TRLA) and Indiana Legal Services (ILS) are representing the workers in court. Bridget Anderson, public affairs consultant for Pioneer, said the corporation could not comment on the specifics of the lawsuit because litigation is pending. But in a statement she said, "We feel these allegations are being brought by TRLA unfounded." "We have a long-standing, successful history of employing agricultural workers to work in Indiana," Anderson said. "Furthermore, Pioneer Hi-Bred has a great track record of meeting and often exceeding state and federal requirements related to our workforce. We look forward to responding to the allegations at the appropriate time." Texas RioGrande Legal Aid has received complaints from workers regarding Pioneer's employment practices almost on a yearly basis, according to a statement released by the legal services agency. The lawsuit is the fourth large federal case brought by the legal agency on behalf of farmworkers against Pioneer in the last five years. "These 20 workers all have same complaints," TRLA attorney Marinda van Dalen said. "They were promised well-paid, good work by Pioneer, but they were paid peanuts, housed like sardines and transported like cattle. They kept their side of the bargain by traveling to Indiana and working hard, and now they have filed suit to make Pioneer keep its end of the deal."

What should I do? When I went into the work world 2 years ago I was full of optimism and successful dreams. I was going to be a mold maker. It went well for a while we were getting 48 hours a week and everyone was happy untill work slowed down we got 32 hour weeks and More work I was miserable working there so at the end of my contract I just didnt renew it. So I got a retail job at a big store that paid more only problem was the work load was impossible You just can't humanly lift that much, everything was bulk. So I got in fights with my bosses and at the end of the season we all got laid off and never called back. So now I just have a hard time even thinking of getting a job I hate working for A&& holes Ive had enough, what can I do to make money and be half happy. I hate working my but off for substandard pay and I never get the credit I don't know were to start. I am just lost don't know were to go from here. Pretty good answers guys I might just roll the dice and go for the hole thing. Be my own boss and then I can treat young people like me with respect they deserve. As a boss your responsibilities should be to lead not yell and look down on workers. The general gets off the chopper first and gets back on last.

Am I very lucky or is it the market conditon? I'm 24 I work full time as an accountant. I day traded 4 years ago but i was very impatient and kept selling as soon as i saw the stock price drop. I lost lots of money. However, now i've graduated from college and understand the way the market works. I'm using contrarian market principle at a more simplified and quicker approach. The principle says buy when a stock is turning low and sell when it eventually goes up. I buy when a stock plummets and sell after a short gain from a quick bounce in share price. I don't sell untill it recovers! It hasn't worked perfectly b/c i've had to wait up to 3 months once for a stock to get out of the red. I'm just looking to make a quick $200 a week of a 1-2% upside. What do you think about this strategy? Is this strategy only successful b/c of the high volume and volatility in the current market place? I'm using all my savings to trade and made about $3K this year mostly due to 3 windfall trades where i gained 10%. Should i continue with this strategy? Should i stop and leave my money in a bank? What was your experince of day trading? Is it like gambeling? lets not forget the high taxes i'll be paying at the end of the year.

Am I successful? I'm not trying to brag; just trying to understand if I'm moving in the right direction to reach my goals. I've recieved payment for twenty articles since Dec. The pay's not much [only $120 all together], but it's a start. I published a book two yrs. ago, but it didn't sell much. I've written over a thousand poems. I've placed several times in poetry slams as well as featuring at slams. But am I successful? Do any of these things count on my journey towards being a writer? It doesn't seem mentioning them helps me much when trying to publish. Why?

What legal responsibility does a title company have if they pay the wrong amount when funding child support? My ex-husband is a real estate developer. He earns about $400,000. a year and refuses to pay court ordered child support and alimony in the amount of $6,000. per month. The only way that I have been successful in collecting any support is through liens placed on properties that he is selling. He is now three months behind and just closed a loan. Child Support Services gave the title company the demand amount. They paid $152.00 of a $18,152.00. The title company is explaining that they made a mistake. The funds have been disbursed, including the balance to my ex., I am now in a panic. I am a full time student (I was involved with our family bus. for 20 years). I currently do not have an income, raising three children. Is the title company legally obligated to correct the mistake? I am not looking for a lecture on being finacially independant, I am working on that. He has never paid volenterily. He has tried to get the amount reduced twice in the past year. Denied on both occasions.

Why do balding men end up in prison, low paying jobs, depressed and play the villians in hollywood? I'm talking about male pattern baldness here. Honestly, the only successful bald men with the rare exceptions that I've seen are either pilots, doctors and politicians. Where are the successful bald managers? At my company, the balding managers are the ones on the night shift, the worst of all. The people standing on the street corner with a sign are you guessed it, bald! The bad guys on TV and movies are bald. And when women mention an attractive bald guy it is always "Vin Diesel" or Bruce Willis. That's a cop out! Am I the only one who notices this phenomina? What are the real consequences of losing your hair?

What are the legalities of getting a hotel room at 17? Although my girlfriend and I have a very active and satisfying sex life, we hardly ever get a full night in just to ourselves with both of our parents out or without being disturbed by friends or commitments. We both think it'd be lovely just to get away from all the stress, just for one (or a few nights), and want to book into a hotel. The problem is: we're both 17 until July when we will have finished college. Can we book a hotel at this age; is it even legal? We both look around 18. I get served down both my locals, and on the phone allegedly sound about 30 something… Will we get I.D'ed? Can I pay over the phone (I only have a Visa Electron debit card)? How successful am I likely to be in this Endeavour. If I book on the phone, and turn up looking smart and respectable will there really be a problem? Neither of us drive if that matters. Thanks. Well, I've never been I.D'ed for fags since I was about 13... maybe thats just Watford for you :) ha I do remember my girl said she got a hotel with a bunch of youngens (all female) a few years back near Euston when she was about 15... So it's possible. Or maybe that was just luck. As for being minors, over here in the UK we're over the age of consent (16). So it's entirely legal for us to be having intimate relations.

How is my soon2be Ex getting away with this? I am 26 yrs old. Successful, attractive and full of laughter! Soon2be Ex 32, he makes 200,000.00 a year just NOW moved out of his moms house! He currently pays ZERO child support but he was only ordered to pay 200.00 a month! Our Son is now five. 2Bx and I dated, got pregnant, he left me. Claiming "ITS NOT MINE" classic ;) S2BX showed back up for Lamaze class, that I PAID for. To this day, I believe it was only to torture me! He smelt like a brew house. He let me know he was workin with only 2 hrs of sleep and in the same sentence telling me to breath! YUCK. All I wanted was for him to STOP breathing on ME ;) Then my S2BX of course showed his face again in the delivery room! I must say, being pregnant was the happiest I have ever been in my life. And the only thing that made me frustrated was my S2BX. Let me cut to the chase... S2BX and I got back together I was SEVERE post partum/justa big ol BiA. My S@BX wasn't havin it. Which I sort of don't blame him: Do you remember the song by Jessica Simpson....Nothin but a Tshirt on? Well that came on the radio, my S2BX said "damn she's ...I STOPpEd HIM reaL quick by stating J. S. was dating NICK and would never date you and BlahBlahBlah ;) Most guys would laugh or maybe not...But I had just given birth! I went from a size 0 to relying on rubber bands to keep my BIG OL BELLY all safe and sound. Needless to say since that night we have been back and forth... In between all of our breakups we found time to get married! The really bad part is that I was not bonded to my son the way that I should have been. I was always on edge and had severe anxiety. Just an emotional roller coaster for myself but more importantly our son. Every time I start getting things right for myself and son the S2BX is knocking at my front door! And I always fall for it! Keep in mind, my S2BX has gone thru five other women in our sons five years of life. I am not talking about casual DATING. These girls were emotionally involved in our sons life. Summer of 06' I ran into 2 of the 5 girls. Girl #1 we ended up being on the same boat out on the lake; so we chitchat to ease the tension then she tells me how much she missed my son and that she remembered rocking him to sleep when he was a baby, Girl #2 approaches me CRYING wanting to TALK! Meanwhile I'm toasting champagne for my best friends birthday! I toasted and with a smile I turned and listened....she told me she was still madly in love with my S2BX and she missed my son terribly. Before you ask "why I was not home with my son... my son was with his dad [S2BX] EOW. My S2BX also has an addiction to pain pills! BAD! He's still spending ungodly amounts of money on them. He's actually SUPER nice when he's on them but when he cant find any or goes a day without HE'S EVIL or locked in the bedroom with a severe headache or on the toilet constipated! He yells he throws things he's abusive physically and mentally to our son and to me. Then takes a magic pill and he acts like the greatest dad and best Hubby in the world. I go back to him so I know that my son is safe hands, S2bx is not a good person PERIOD but the judge only see's the TABd out happy side of him and the FED UP side of me! My ex needs REHAB my Son needs me THE judge needs...Who Knows! The harder I try the more I seem to fail... Wh? I know I allow him back in but how else can I protect my son? I mean really... If I bring up S2Bx's: Pill problem, Anger Issues, multiple girlfriends (which I could careless about ) just NO SLEEP OVERS when he has our child. Good chance it will back fire. I mean to you I probably just sound like I'm playing the victim of a bad marriage and making all this up.... wish I was. If only our judge could be a fly on the wall!!! That would be the only way anyone could understand any of this. And let me correct myself ... my S@BX was not making this kind of money when they put together the Temporary child support order. At the time he had been working for his DAD then quit the month before our court date and was waiting tables. Then after the decision was made he got his 8-5 back....

How do I figure out which parent to live with? I'm 15 years old and my parents are divorced. Its been like that since I was in Preschool and I had legally lived with my mom for about the first four years of elementary school until I couldn't take it anymore. My mom was the single mom who had 3 children (my 2 older brothers, and I) and she loved the single life playing tennis tournaments and clubbing on the weekends. As a child in 4th grade, I decided to legally move to my father's house. I was tired of my mom acting like a child and I wanted to get away from it all- all my older brothers abusement (since I was an only girl and youngest child), and my irresponsible mother. Moving to my father's meant going through paperwork to be sure my mom pays up my child support fee every month. But when I moved there, my Dad didnt even report my presence until later, and when he did, he did not request child support fees from my mom (meaning, she did not need to pay for me). My Dad definately wants the best for me. Since I began living there, he has given me luxeries I could never have dreamed of if I'd stayed at my moms, like my own room, or bed, and instruments I LOVE playing, like my own piano and acoustic guitar. But now that I've been living there, a lot has crossed my mind. I'm a lot older, more mature, and heres a big one: I want to go to college, and I want to be successful in highschool and life itself. But because I want to go to college the only way it seems for me to accomplish that is stay at my Dad's so he can pay for only some of my fees bc I have the some other money saved too. My older brothers are in college and they've had the most difficult time paying since both of my parents seemingly REFUSE to pay it. Yes. I said refuse. My mom believes my Dad should pay it while my Dad believes his sons should figure out a way to work hard and pay it themselves since that was what he had to do when he came to america by himself when he was 14. Also, since I've left my mom's house, she has been more aware about me and my feelings when I was younger, and she has admit to me now, like 6 years later, that she was sorry. I can tell how older she acts, how she takes her jobs more seriously, and how more supportive she is in all my activities. And my brothers have even grown and they treat my like an adult finally. My brothers, my mom and I have grown even closer now and sometimes we even play tennis together as a family. And now, finally.. it feels like our family has just begun. But I still live at my Dad's house, and I hate it here. I hate how I dont feel a family presence like we're all connected, and we never talk openly to eachother. My Dad and stepmom support me in everything possible to get me into a great college but there are other things they do not support me in, like hanging out with friends once a week, or even going to one football game. I cant sleep over anyone's house and they critize my friends and judge them after theyve only met them once. I'm sorry I've written alot, but I've been thinking so long about it now, that its now all coming out, so honestly, please give me some serious feedback about this. its hard enough as it is already, and I just need some help til im 18. haha. thanks.. God Bless.

plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz help in this problem plzzzzzzzzzzzz......................? Harry Houdini’s business: Houdini always had an ambition to be a magician. As a child, he took great delight in making his younger brothers and sisters disappear and he was often asked to perform conjuring tricks at birthday parties. It was a natural career choice for him when, at the age of 21, he decided to leave college in 1 July 2007 and make his fortune in the world, setting up in business as a magician. He made the following payments in his first week in business On 1st July he paid £1500 for a glittering costume with a top hat and cloak. On 2nd July he paid £1000 for a set of rare and valuable books, “The Ancient Secrets of Magic” and other magician’s equipment. On 3rd July, he received and was invoiced for four packs of magicians’ playing cards from Alf Cooks Limited for £50 each. Houdini expected to use these items for many years. He paid cash from his own savings for the costume, the books and magician’s equipment, but he agreed that he would pay for the playing cards on 14 July from the business bank account. His first appearance as a magician was on 7 July at Annual International Day of Magic and Conjuring Show, for which he was paid a fee of £650 by cheque, with which he opened a business account on the same day. He incurred £15 travel expenses, which he paid from his own savings. The TASK: 1(a)From the information provided above, prepare a summary of Houdini’s income and expenses for the week ended 7th July, showing the profit earned. Please ignore any depreciation on Harry Houdini’s assets. 1(b)Draw up a list, as at 7 July, of Houdini’s fixed assets, current assets and current liabilities and then calculate what Harry Houdini’s net assets are at that date. TMA02, question 1, part 2: (10 marks) Houdini the magician entered his second week of business with £650 in his business bank account and has agreed to appear as entertainer at three parties during the week. Realising that he had no rabbits to pull out of his top hat, he contacted a rabbit breeder, who, on 8th July, supplied and received a cheque for six white rabbits at cost of £30 each, on the condition that Houdini treated them kindly and fed them well. The rabbits were paid for on the same day by cheque. On 8th July, Houdini also bought a large quantity of rabbit food from Rabbit Food plc. for which he paid £150 from the business account on 9th July. On the same day, Rabbit Food plc supplied several sacks of scrap wood at no cost, for building rabbit hutches (small houses for rabbits). 10th July, Houdini travelled to William Green’s party, which was a success and he was paid £100 cash. Travel expenses were £15 cash. On 11th July, he paid a cheque for £15 for cleaning his costume, which became soiled after handling the rabbits. On 12th July, he paid £8 for a train ticket in cash to travel to Violet Cartwright’s party. This event was also successful and he received a fee of £100 by cheque. On 13th July, he performed at Jasper Peter’s party, which was only partially successful, since a child felt sorry for the rabbits and let them all escape. The rabbits were never seen again. Houdini gave an invoice to Mr Peter for £250 in total, to cover the cost of the escaped rabbits and a reduced performance fee for himself. As the performance was not a complete success, he agreed to waive some of his performance fee on this occasion, which Mr Peter paid in cash on the same day. As the party was local, he incurred no travel expenses on this occasion. On 14th July, Houdini returned the unused rabbit feed to Rabbit Food plc, which gave him back £50 for the unused feed. He also paid Alf Cooke’s account for the playing cards bought in the first week. The TASK: 2 (a)From the information provided above in Question 2, construct a simple cash account for Houdini the magician for the week from 8 to 14 July 2(b)Explain the purpose of a cash account (also called cash flow statement in B120, Book 3) and what an analysis of the cash account can reveal about a business. TMA 02, question 1, part 3: (20 marks) The busiest time for any children’s entertainer in Europe, in North America, Australia, New Zealand, among other countries, is at Christmas time, Christmas Day being 25th December. Christmas time can start from early December. As the year progressed he was in great demand. He felt that he needed as assistant so he decided to employ Safire, who had previously been chief inventor at Wizard Limited, a company that makes equipment for magic tricks and novelties. As a leaving gift, the company had given Safire a ‘disappearing lady’ apparatus. Being unsentimental about such things, she sold it to Harry Houdini on 1 December 2007 for £2500. Safire started to appear (and disappear) as part of Harry Houdini’s magic act. After two months in her new job, Safire persuaded Houdini to diversify by buying items made by her former employer and selling them at the children’s parties to the parents and guests. During

The illegal hispanic crowd ruined their own country and come to America waving their Mexican flag and asking the American taxpayer to pay for their babies, education, food stamps and most drive without car insurance.

Cash For Clunkers the boondoggle that paid me $4,600. Successful? Does your definition of "success" mean how quickly Barry Obama can squander another $1 billion of the taxpayers' money? Which is seems to be for some people. The government had no business giving me a $4,600 credit on the brand new 2009 Toyota Venza AWD sitting in my driveway, that I took delivery of yesterday. All it did was delay a purchase I was going to make soon anyway: after I learned that this bill was being considered in Congress I waited until the program was in effect. I can easily afford the car and paid cash for the vehicle by getting a treasurer's check drawn on my checking account. But most people will be going further into debt by taking out a car loan. The government just credited me 4,600 bucks to buy an all wheel drive vehicle that is rated 23 MPG. LMAO. A complete waste of the taxpayers' money. Boondoggle. One Billion Dollars. And I understand the House voted another $2 Billion on top of that, let's see if that passes the Senate. But I will take Barry's money just the same. Gee, thanks Barry. Who's Barry? LMAO Bill, that was not for American vehicles only haha what a silly thing to say. It just shows you are clueless. My Toyota dealer was packed with customers yesterday. If you are not smart enough to read the bill or the newspaper that is fine, all you have to do is turn on the TV to see the Toyota adds touting the Cash For Clunkers. Attention subwm4bush and his fellow nitwits: The Toyota Venza is classified as a Class 1 Truck under Cash For Clunkers law, though in fact it is an automobile. I traded in a 1994 Mercury Villager (17 MPG) and to get the $4,500 my new 'truck' had to get 22 MPG or better. It does, it gets 23 MPG. Attention obnoxious liberals. The Venza is listed right there and so is my ex Mercury Villager minivan which is now sitting on the dealer's lot waiting to be crushed into scrap metal. http://www.buyatoyota.com/cars.aspx "Only for American cars" LMAO what a silly thing to say.

How much does Obama want to punish successful Americans? The top 10% of American earners pay 70% of all taxes right now. The bottom 50% pay ONLY 2.6% of all taxes! That is HALF of Americans only paying 2.6%!!!! How much more should the successful be punished? Give me a number!

Has anyone been successful in getting Medicare to pay for the Insulet Corp. Omnipod insulin pump system? Prior to becoming eligible for Medicare, my wife was covered by Blue Cross/Blue Shield of MA. They fully covered both the PDM and pods of the Omnipod system. It is not true that no insurance plan pays for this treatment system. BTW they also paid for my CPAP machine.

Where Can I Find Hard Working & Successful US Marketing Reps? I have marketing reps that work for me that are based outside of the US and now I am looking for more US based reps. Our foreign reps have been working for over 6 years and have been very successful. However, when I post ads on US job websites, in which we pay a great deal of money for, we get responses from people that want to work from home - but aren't the type of people that really should be. Or they say they are looking for work and when we tell them that because we are a legitimate company, they have to work hard, they become uninterested. We have posted on Monster, Tjobs, HotJobs, and more. We are simply looking for reps to find clients and we give them 20% of whatever the client pays. It is work - but simple work. We are located in Illinois and are a successful website, printing, and technology company. In the US we know many, many people that are looking for work, and I am simply trying to help as many people as we can. Any thoughts?

How successful has the tram network been in Shefield? Do they run at a profit?and has car traffic reduced? Here in Edinburgh we are always hearing how successful the tram system is in Sheffield but I learned only recently that Stagecoach have taken over the system. Why? and how much did they pay for it? Were the debts written off? The public don't want trams here only the politicians do but we are getting them anyway.

How can I approach a successful business woman I have not met and do not know to let her know I am interested? in her client? I am not so much a fan, as they are crazed. I can't show up on a set screaming his name, that doesn't fit me or my profile. Besides, I'd like this guy whether he were an actor, starting a hedge fund or a garbage man.... So, woman to woman, how do I approach her in a nice, polite, neutral way that is effective? Please advise. If you answer well, and I am successful, I will pay for all your expenses to attend my eventual wedding when / if it works out. I am lovely, and think this man will adore me, and even if that sounds like I'm moving to fast, I still want the chance to find out myself. If he turned out to be a jerk, I'd let you know. I do not think this is the case, he is not like Colin Farel, the ego maniac or Jude Law, this is a humble, yet strong man. I think and believe he will love me first a s friend, second as a woman... if your answer helps me, I will reward you. Thanks so much and if I can be of help to you please tell me how and I will do my best to assist

Even Scientists and Engineers are paid less today than they were 20 years ago, is there anything Obama can do? Taking into account cost of living increases, scientists and engineers are paid less today than they were 20 years ago.

My professor is helping several of his students out by getting them jobs in either his office or some of his close colleagues' offices. When it comes time to negotiate my salary, I would like to ask for $17 an hour, but I wanted to know if you think that is too much to request. (I am currently working as an assistant manager at Victoria's Secret making a measley $11.50/hr.)

Have anyone every tried the paid survey online before, and if so was you successful?

Better chance having a successful job as a cosmetologist or going into PR/marketing in Michigan? I'm planning a career change, but since I live in Michigan (where the economy is in a really pitiful condition), I'm not sure what would be a better option--going back to college for PR/marketing or doing what a majority of my friends have done and getting my cosmetology license. I know that people will always need their hair cut--but can you really make a successful career out of it? And with PR/marketing, would I be paying for school just to end up having to move out of state to find a job? Serious responses, especially from those in Michigan, greatly appreciated.

What do you do when your boss breaks the contract? My boss had me sign a commission structure when i was hired. as i have become more successful and bringing in more business, she is changing the rules and not paying the commission that is due to me. i like the job, i can live on the salary without commission, but i work hard to bring in the clients. the commission is a great motivation. i've confronted her about it, and she makes up excuses, none of which i consider valid. any suggestions on what to do?

Would becoming a porn star help or hurt your chances of becoming a successful mainstream actor? Ok. Say you go out to Los Angeles with a twinkle in your eye and dreams of becoming a famous movie star. When you get there, you realize it's no picnic and turn to porn to pay the bills. Have you now increased or decreased your chances of becoming a successful actor in the (non-adult) film industry?

Why is it a crime to become successful and wealthy, according to Democrats? I find it really ironic that liberals and Democrats oppose people "making it" and becoming successful in this country. Why is that? Capitalism is what makes this country great, yet Democrats (or usually people that sit on their *** all day, won't educate themselves to get a good job, or losers that want everything handed to them) complain about "rich people". Well, guess what people: Rich people provide jobs, spend money in the economy and pay 90% of the taxes in this country. Why is it a crime to work hard and become wealthy?

USAUSAUDAIf my friends are getting paid as promised whether they work or not how is that bad? --This is a business opportunity not a job so no interview is needed. My friends travel now, they don't need to work. They get an obscene amount of money direct-deposited each week as they sit on the beach sipping drinks with little umbrellas in them. I know because that is how they recruited me. I was skeptical too, till they took me to the hawaiian islands for a week vacation, all paid for. How is that "too good to be true" when it is? If others are not successful then they must not have been good at it or they did not work the system as it is set out for them. Just because there are those who can't work the system doesn't mean the system is flawed, considering there are those who do now get paid $8000 a week sitting on the beach.

When someone gets indefinite leave to remain? Where are they housed? Because the temporary, all expenses paid for accommodation must come to an end when they get their ILR and work permit/National Insurance Number - they can then apply as "homeless" to their local council. Just like unfortunate British taxpayers who may have lost their homes due to job loss, mortgage repossession, eviction etc. However, these people will usually be judged "intentionally homeless" and left in a homeless shelter. So what happens to the successful asylum seekers? I suppose they are going straight into the Council and Housing Association houses that should. be rights, be available to the British taxpayer? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/news.html?in_article_id=382276&in_page_id=1770&ico=Homepage&icl=TabModule&icc=News&ct=5

Why do liberals want to tell successful Americans how to manage their money? I am a successful American, so naturally, liberals want to go after me and take my money from me and redistribute it to crappy programs like welfare, which is a form of slavery that liberals keep the poor under. I am also not going to pay for people who don't work to get health care. They could die and I will not feel sorry for them. I feel sorry for kids, but if their parents cared about them, they would work hard.

Do authors get paid to advertise in their novels, and does this disappoint you? I have recently read a few books and was annoyed at the blatent advertising in them eg: James Patterson extolling the virtues (over and over agian) of a Mercedes car in his book 'Crossed' , Dean Koonz promoting 'Second Life' in 'The Darkest Night of the Year'. Should this be allowed? I think it takes away from the story. It's not as if they need the money, as I've only noticed it in successful authors.

Has anyone been successful finding a pro bono lawyer in NJ? My husband and I desperately need a lawyer for a family court matter, and we can't afford to pay anything. People say you have to call Legal Aid (did that, they wouldn't help) or get out the yellow pages and just start calling (did that, didn't find any for less than $750). So I was wondering, has anyone been successful finding low-cost or free legal representation? How did you do it?

Fantasy football draft test was successful but actual live draft failed. How do we have a draft before week 1? Our live draft was scheduled for 9 PM Eastern tonight (9/4/2007), but when the timer ticked down to zero nothing happened. I talked to several of the league managers who clicked the "Test" button and no one had a problem. It seems that the draft just failed to start! At this point there are no available time slots to have our draft before the start of Week 1. Does anyone know how to get support from Yahoo! so that we can reschedule our draft before the start of the NFL season? We paid for the Plus league because it offered "improved technical support." The problem is that there is no information about how to contact the technical support team now that we actually have a problem!!! The next best option that we have come up with is to switch to Autodraft (which for me takes all the fun out of fantasy football, but that is a different matter). Even with this option there is no guarantee that our draft will be completed in time for the start of the NFL season. Any suggestions?

How do I start my business again, only this time with positive results? I am a 28 year old licensed cosmetologist. Doing hair and making people beautiful is my passion in life. I have booth rented in the past and the results were not so good. I gained some clientelle but most times it seems as though I was working to pay booth rent. I stopped because I became disgusted with the whole thing. However I enjoy working for myself and I am truly happy doing it , so I desperatly want to start over and this time be successful. Is there any wise and sound advice out there for me?

Can you declare bankruptcy when it comes to student loans? Student loans are going to kill me one of these days. I know I don't have to repay until after graduation, but is one allowed to declare bankruptcy if you aren't able to pay them back? There's certainly no guarantee that I'm going to be able to jump into a tremendously successful career following graduation. Or do the loan moguls have us poor students over a barrel?

Why are successful black men expected to only date black women? In grade schools black girls only wanted the players and thugs and the same in college. Well now that all my hard work has paid off and I have the nice clothes and fancy car and a hot girl I happened to meet on the job who happens to be of another race, I get dirty looks from black women who would have completely ignored me as a poor student. Whats the deal with that?

Why do liberals conduct witchunts for successful Americans? I am a successful man and I don't want to be paying my hard earned money to the government so that it will go to the millions of hopeless, useless lives on welfare. Most welfare money goes to single parent homes, families that are hopeless and will bring up a menace to society. The liberals want to keep everyne poor so that they can enslave them by making them dependent on the government. It seems all the time that liberals are chasing after decent CEO's and millionaires for making more money than they ever will in their miserable lives.

I founded a successful nonprofit but now realize I am not an administrator. Small budget. How can we get help? For several years I have been running a national nonprofit without much paid support. While I now receive a salary, I realize that I cannot be the administrator, spokesperson, accountant, etc., etc. My trying to do it all has actually kept us from doing the grantwriting that would allow us to hire an administrator. How do I break out of this circle?

My band had a gig where no one danced...but we were paid $500 regardless. So was it successful or not??? I'm trying to gather a concensus for an internal disagreement. Thanks..all responses welcome! ps to kangaroo---LOL...of course! I thought we were trying to make money, myself! it was a bar...we play classic rock. Oh, people were into it...mostly sitting or standing around at the bar, tapping in time, singing along, cheering after each tune. Compliments afterwords, too. It's just we have a couple mates who seem overly preoccupied with the dancers!

What will you do when your best friend trying to ruin your relationship with your Fiancée? My best friend who I know for six year, who I helped in extreme financial difficulties even when she were unable to pay her rent and groceries, she tried several time in the past to have a relationship with me so we can get married. We discussed this thing several times and due to many reasons I made her clear that it is not feasible for both of us to have this kind of relationship. She agreed with me and we never tried again to develop that kind of relationship between us but became very good friend. Now that I am a successful person and engaged with someone else and my friend is trying every possible means to break my relationship with my Fiancée and her family. Unfortunately she seduced me several times and one time we had intimacy while we were drunk. Ever since she has been claiming that she is pregnant though so far three ultrasounds and three blood tests are negative but she claims she is 7 weeks pregnant. She trying to be against the abortion but already uses high potency antibiotic in early pregnancy (if there is one) and she is a very heavy smoker. So she already insulting the embryo and trying to blame others for the act. She already called my Fiancée’s family about the pregnancy to ruin my relationship with them. Yes I did request her for abortion if there is any pregnancy since it is also man’s right to make reproductive choices in the event of an unintended pregnancy especially when there are malintentions involved under the circumstances I described above. So please provide your opinion on this situation when someone already cleared in her mind that I am engaged and will be getting married soon but with her planned actions she is trying to break it?
