I don't want the public school system-I can provide for my kids education just fine. I don't want social security-I can save for my own retirement thank you. I don't need Obamacare-I can get excellent care in the free market. In fact if the government would stop "providing" for Americans, two amazing things would happen. 1) Our hellish debt could immediately be brought under control 2) The economy and job creation would immediately rev up. How? The government would no longer have any excuse to seize 1/2 of everything I have to waste on mismanaged programs that are bankrupting our nation. I could provide for myself and keep my pay to spend as I chose. Lauren God bless you. Don't get discouraged! chloe Who said any thing about homeschooling. My church could easily fund and organize a school and we could make kids far more intelligent than the public system. All Washington does is run failing program that bankrupt the country! Being independent is what liberty is all about.

What do other supporters of illegals have to say about one of their own arrested for helping illegals break the law ?McALLEN, Texas — A south Texas county commissioner pleaded guilty Monday to two felony counts stemming from her putting illegal immigrants who worked at her home on the county payroll. Hidalgo County Commissioner Sylvia Handy pleaded guilty to making false statements on her 2005 income tax return and conspiracy to conceal or harbor illegal immigrants, according to federal court records. Lawyers had prepared to begin picking the jury for her trial Monday. U.S. District Judge Ricardo Hinojosa allowed Handy to remain free on bond until her June sentencing, in exchange for promising to resign her elected position Tuesday, court records show. Arrested in April, Handy faced an 11-count indictment, but had remained free on bond and continued working as a county commissioner. Calls to Handy's attorney Al Alvarez and her precinct office were not immediately returned Monday. Handy's husband Juan Espronceda also was charged in the case, but the charges were supposed to be dropped after Handy's sentencing, according to court records. Federal investigators alleged Handy defrauded the county of $111,000 in salaries for the immigrants. Some of their county salaries also went toward paying a $53,000 bill consolidation loan Handy took out in 2004, according to the indictment. Handy allegedly instructed a county human resources employee to prepare a fraudulent job application for one woman using an assumed identity, including someone else's Social Security number. At one point, Handy promoted her. The woman moved in 2004 into a house in Mercedes owned by Handy and continued collecting county paychecks. In June 2005, the woman withdrew $4,400 from her assumed identity's retirement account. The process allegedly included sham interviews with other job applicants before another illegal immigrant ultimately was hired for a maintenance job. She collected county checks while working in Handy's home in 2004. Handy has served on the county commission since first running for her seat in 1996. She was Hidalgo County's first elected woman commissioner. http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/ap/tx/6903526.html

My husband has been in the army for about tn years and will be getting out pretty soon. I think the FBI or secret service or something will count his military time towards retirement, but I don't know for sure. What other ones are there. We would hate for those ten years to count for nothing. My husband is currently deployed. Though this is his third deployment, this is his first with a wife. And we had a baby in the middle of this deployment. As he puts it, the army is a good occupation for a single guy. It is putting a lot of stress on the whole family. That's why he's getting out.

I have worked for a small company (~20 employees) for the past 5 years. Now, I'm moving to another company. I have about $80K built up in what my employer refers to as a "profit-sharing retirement plan." It's administered by a 3rd party, and contributions are made on my behalf, I'm not sure when this is done or how much I'm putting in. Once yearly I get to choose which funds my money is invested in, and I get quarterly statements. I guess this is like a 401K but I'm not sure, since I don't really know what a 401K is. It's actually kind of shameful how little I know about this. The office manager has assured me that I can just leave my money there after I leave, but honestly it makes me a little bit nervous to do so. So would this be the type of thing I could "roll over" into another account, something over which I could exercise more direct supervision? I'm hoping to avoid paying taxes, of course. Or should I just let the money stay put? If I wanted to move my money, how would I go about doing something like this? Can I just go somewhere like T Rowe Price (I see their commercials on TV) and tell them to take care of it for me?

Tomas Brolin The man made a name for himself at AC Parma and at the 1994 World Cup with a few stunning goals. At the end of 1995 he moved to Leeds for ₤4.5 million and after arriving with weight problems, ‘Tubby’ scored a shocking 4 goals in 2 seasons all the while heavily lining the pockets of every McDonald’s manager in Leeds. Leeds terminated his contract in 1997 and it was all over for Fatty. Denilson Christiano Ronaldo without a brain would be a very apt title with which to describe Denilson. After signing for Betis for a then record 21.9 million Pounds, he proceeded to dribble himself for 7 years, before everyone realized how crap he really was. After an unsuccessful spell with Bordeaux, he decided to test his talent in the fairer climes of Saudi Arabia and FC Dallas. He seems to have found his level. Except FC Dallas don’t want him anymore. Marco Boogers - West Ham Harry Redknapp wasn't always the streetwise London gaffer he is today. The arrival of 'Mad' Marco Boogers for £1m from Sparta Rotterdam in July 1995 was just one of a number of misjudged West Ham imports. Coming on as a substitute against Manchester United in only his second appearance for the club, Boogers was almost immediately red carded for 'a sickening horror tackle' (The Sun) on Gary Neville. He promptly disappeared, discovered several weeks later hiding in a mobile home in a Dutch caravan park. The Boogers debacle, which ended in a loan deal and subsequent free transfer to Groningen despite his protestations - 'I'm not mental' - was the worst of a dreadful Redknapp collection: Florin Raducioiu arrived for £2.4m in July 96 and was sold at a £600,000 loss six months later after missing training for a Harvey Nichols shopping trip; Portuguese supermodel Dani lasted five months before being thrown out for excessive nightclubbing; and £2m star Javier Margas went missing in February last year, turning up later at home in Chile. He, unlike Boogers, did come back. Wim Jonk - Sheffield Wednesday Not only did Jonk look like Michael Palin, but he was as tough in the tackle as him. The Dutchman, signed for £2.5m from PSV Eindhoven in 1998, lolloped anonymously around Wednesday’s midfield for two seasons, the second of which saw them relegated. After experiencing the hurly burly of two First Division games, he sat out the remaining year of his contract, citing a tummy ache. At the end of that season, he retired to concentrate on his poetry. Wednesday fans had their own rhymes for him. Chris Sutton Another Chelsea flop, Sutton never really did much at Chelsea in one season, after transferring from Blackburn Rovers for ₤10 million. Luckily he did better at Celtic forming a deadly partnership with Henrik Larsson. Aaah, the Scottish League, a retirement home for below average English strikers. Massimo Taibi - Manchester United Sir Alex signed him to replace Peter Schmeichel? In 1999, with Raimond van der Gouw always wearing his bridesmaid’s outfit and Mark Bosnich too cocky by half, Sir Alex Ferguson splashed out £4.5m on Venezia journeyman Massimo Taibi. The omnipresent tracksuit bottoms should have caused Ferguson to pause for thought. Instead, Taibi conceded two sloppy goals at Liverpool on his debut and one to Wimbledon the following week. Then the fun began: Southampton scored three at Old Trafford, including a Matthew Le Tissier “shot” that trickled through Taibi’s legs and was so soft, it barely crossed the line. Eight days later, Chelsea put five past him at Stamford Bridge and this Italian’s job was over, little more than a month after it had began. Taibi rotted in the reserves until Reggina took him on loan before a £2.5m purchase at season’s end. He was, noted a generous Roy Keane, “clearly a good keeper”. Clearly. Juan Sebastian Veron - Manchester United signed for 28.1 million from lazio on a five year deal and lasted just 2 years before being sold onto Chelsea for less than half man utd payed. The strange thing is he was touted as one of the best midfielders in the world and seem to lose all talent the minute he steped off the plane at Manchester Airport. Corrado Grabbi - Blackburn Rovers How the Italians chuckled in 2001 when Graeme Souness, manager of Blackburn Rovers, paid £6.75m for Juventus cast-off Corrado Grabbi, who had just scored 19 goals in 34 Serie B (not to be confused with Serie A) games for Ternana. Grabbi’s work ethic was never in doubt, but two goals in 30 Premiership games suggested Souness might have been better buying a Serie A player. After an especially profligate performance in the 2003 Uefa Cup against Genclerbirgli, Souness lost patience. Grabbi was bought by Ancona. The fee was undisclosed, but it wasn’t £6.75m. Sean Dundee - Liverpool In 1998, Karlsruhe were relegated from the Bundesliga. Their tubby star forward, Sean “Crocodile” Dundee, scored just three times. These facts d ( continued from above or below dependin

My husband and I moved to Canada from U.S. 2 years ago. My husband's job transferred him to Canada to work at one of their companies in Canada (we are still U.S. citizens). He is still contributing to his U.S. Retirement Plan (401(k) arrangements. Do we need to fill out Form RC267? Does the same amount go on line 1 & 2 of form RC267 (which is the amount in Box 12b (Retirement Plan 401 (k) on my U.S 2009 W2).

I have a blog that is position #1 in Google for 'retirement investment'. I will not run it any longer. But simply leaving a blog like this is stupid, because then all my previous job is wasted. So, I want to sell it for good money to those who need 'retirement investment' traffic from Google. Any recommendations where to sell it?

Is it fair that I being a responsible American all my life...Paid my bills on time..bought a house I could afford...saved my pennies for retirement..bought my own health insurance..worked hard at a job and rarely miss a day for last 25 years...have to foot the bill for many of the irresponsible delinquents of America? Where is the fairness in that? Why am I not rewarded for my responsibility?

I have been married to my husband for 15 years, 16 in April. We have discussed divorce he has said if i want a divorce i will have to file. My question is two fold. He is older than me I am 50 he is 65, He is retired from the federal government and has a fulltime job in Private industry. Am I entitled to half his retirement? We have a 15 year old will i get child support and how much. I am unemployed have been for 5 months. He has a college degree and I dont just have some college so he makes much more than I. What are me rights?

I'm beginning to question just how important it is to live a life where you work, go home, sleep, then go to work again. After all, the dollar is about to collapse so that means retirement funds are essentially no good. I'm starting to think, maybe I should just say screw it, quit work, leave the materialistic lifestyle, and go travel around the world and have as much fun as I can. Can anybody recommend books and websites that talk about how to travel cheap and indefinitely? For example staying in hostels and what type of jobs you can work along the way, and how to get those jobs?

So say a guy serves in his branch for thirty years. He's got a degree. What does he do when he gets out? Do a lot of companies hire late-40 early-50 year olds with no experience but what they did in the military? Would the retirement pay from his career be enough to live off of without another job? I suppose I'm a bit confused as to what a career guy does after he serves.

I heard about the economic recession crisis hitting usa at its worst time ever before. So, please can you advise me whether or not should I immigrate to united states. Additional Detail: In a year, my father is getting retirement from his job at a very age of 58, he is not that much old, he can still work for about more 7-10 years. But the government here is stick about imposing its rule on retirement. So after a year, our lifes will not be as luxuries as present. So should we reject the immigration or not. Please consider our livings after a year.

and to Congress? Shouldn't we force them to go and get a job like the rest of us? Or at the very least, take a dollar for dollar reduction for any income they do make? http://www.senate.gov/reference/resources/pdf/98-249.pdf

i do have a degree but im 26 and not making very much cash at the moment. i know i should start saving now for retirement can anyone think of a good plan for me? i was thinking roth ira for now and just put the min. in untill i get a better job? thanks for the help

My husband and I are both 22, we are both graduating from college and can no longer keep our student jobs. We are moving to another city and looking for work, we aren't expecting to make much money initially because we have BA's. We might even just get two part-time jobs each to begin with. We have $29,000 in student loan debt. If we pay that off in five years, we will only be paying $5,000 in interest. With a ten-year plan, we would be paying about $11,000. Needless to say, we are going to try pay the debt off in five years. We don't currently have an adequate emergency savings and would like to buy a house in a few years. I have a plan to save $20,000 in three years for a down payment on a home (I live in TX, you can find a perfectly good home for $100-150k) which will also serve as our emergency savings during that three year period. In order to follow this plan, we will need to be making a combined $38,000 a year, which is not a lot. We are used to living thrifty and the cost of living in our state is very low. However, if we are splitting our extra money between an emergency/house fund and student loan debt, we won't have money to put towards retirement. Should we wait until we find full-time jobs to begin saving for retirement? Should we wait three years until we get a home? Or should we pay our student loans off more slowly in order to save for retirement? Planning for retirement at 25 sounds pretty good to me, but I'm no financial guru. Thanks!

And how is this effecting Obama's decision making? Excerpts: Unions have been the fiercest proponents of the Obamacare have been the Unions. Andy Stern, head of the SEIU has been to the White House more than any other visitor. Some commentators have reported that's Stern's constant trips to the White House is due to his participation in reviewing the basic components of the health care bills as they are developed by the houses of congress. Why is this particular legislation so important to the unions? Because the unions pensions plans are woefully underfunded. The hope is once Obamacare is passed union workers will eventually be shoved over to the co-ops (or an eventual government option), freeing up union cash to help with the pension program. As of this very moment the administration is working on a plan to give preference to Union Shops for ALL federal contracts. The proposal, dubbed the “High Road Contracting Policy,” was first reported by The Daily Caller in early February. According to multiple sources familiar with the discussions, the proposal would give preference to government contractors that pay their hourly workers a “living wage” and provide additional benefits such as health insurance, employer-funded retirement plans and paid sick leave. In other words, they will be "cutting out" the non-union shops and raising the price of jobs, and increasing the federal deficit. In your opinion, is Obama being used as a catalyst to cover up for the union bosses and their poor judgment and are we as tax payers going to get stuck picking up the tab? Here is the article along with a list of 108 union plans that aren't looking too hot: http://yidwithlid.blogspot.com/2010/03/how-coming-union-pension-plan-collapse.html

I met the most amazing man. We have been friends for four years and recently began dating in May. We have had a rocky beginning. We live 70 miles apart. He is gone on the weekends for work. We have continual passion for each other, but we see each other once a week or every other week. I got laid off, I am going through a home loan modification, he wants me to lease the house and move in with him in his small room at his brother's house. We would leave a meager lifestyle, and most of the time he doesn't get anything I say. He isn't really bright. My friend of 15 years confessed he loves me the other day. He told me that he would take care of me for the rest of my life. I would instantly be moving up the hill, get a new convertible beemer, and be sent to Italy for four months to learn to cook Italian food. I would spend my summers on the French Riviera and during the year I can start my own business of choice. He is a nice man, we go to church together, dinner, basically I would have to take a few whoping tequila shots to sleep with him even though he is not bad looking. I have lost all my retirement, i haven't been to successful finding a job in my previous income level and my family said that they will cut me out if I marry the other guy. My mother has already stopped talking to me. My electric is going to get shut off. Opinions please? The problem is the man I love I cannot communicate with, my friend I can communicate with but I can't be intimate with but will have stability. I have not always been in this situation. And "blast" I have been asked out by several wealthy men, but none were my friend. You don't have to be 20 to get a date all you have to have is a personality. I suggest you look up the definition in the dictionary.

Last year I applied for another job at the same place I work now. It is a State job. It would be about $3000 more a year. It requires some schooling that the State would pay for. Last year I was offered the job and then because of budget problems in the State my employer told me he didn't want to fill the job until the budget was better. He said if I took the job I would be in a different Union and I would lose my seniority and could be possibly bumped if there were layoffs. Now they are hiring for this position again and I have been offered the job again. Since last year with a retirement I have become the one at my current job with the highest seniority. This jobs union I cannot be bumped by anyone unlike the one I am being offered for more money. I love my current job and love the hours I work. So would I be completely STUPID to stay at this job which I am secure at, and turn down the job with more money and a schooling they'd pay for. The more money job has shifts and not the hours I like, like my current one. Is $3000 more a year worth it? Is it worth losing my seniority? How pissed would my boss be if I turned it down?

Is this in my own words? you know how you can't plagerize and all that... i tried putting this in my own words, is it good enough? internet: Step 1: Identification of a Vacancy The Line Manager identifies a vacancy for reasons that may include: • Staffing changes – eg. secondment, resignation, termination, retirement, leave; and/or • Work requirement changes – eg. creation of a new position, temporary additional workload. Step 2: Review the need for the position/to fill the vacancy. The Line Manager will review the short/long term requirement for the position and the need to fill the vacancy. In so doing the Line Manager will consider: • Staffing Plan/profile for the work area • Budget • Current / Future Requirements • Job Skill Requirements • Occupancy required to meet need (eg. ongoing, fixed term) • Adequacy and accuracy of position description • Whether the position is approved and established Note: This review may involve other managers within the faculty/service centre. Step 3: Determine the most effective recruitment strategy to acquire a pool of candidates The Line Manager will consider and assess the best way of attracting a pool of suitably qualified candidates, who will meet the needs of the business. Examples of methods for acquiring a pool of candidates are: • Internal staff (Advertisement) • Internal staff (Redeployment) • Candidates from recent/previous recruitment activity • Professional/Industry Organisations • Recruitment Agencies/Job Network • Advertising • Internet • Journals • Newspaper Step 8: Commence selection by reviewing applications and determine a shortlist of candidates. The Chairperson of the selection panel will ensure that all members or a representative sub-group have access to the applications, consider the information and facilitate a shortlisting process to identify the most competitive candidates. The selection panel (or representative sub-group) will compile a summary assessment and ranking of the candidates against the selection criteria for inclusion in the selection report. It may be necessary at this step to consider pre-selection interviews or other assessments tools to identify a manageable shortlist. Candidates not shortlisted will be advised that they were unsuccessful. Step 9: Assess short listed candidates. The selection panel will conduct interviews and/or apply other relevant assessment methods to acquire information relevant to the university’s business needs, position role & accountabilities and selection criteria. The assessment methods should be consistently applied to all candidates for a vacancy and may include, but not be limited to: • Interview • Skills/aptitude test • Work samples/simulations • Psychological testing • Reference check (mandatory for the recommended applicant) Following the collation of information from the various sources, including the candidate’s application/resume, the selection panel will review all the information and determine a ranking of the candidates. The ranking will identify the candidates who meet the criteria and order of merit. Step 12: Verbal offer of employment to preferred candidate and discuss employment terms and conditions. The relevant Line Executive/Chairperson/Line Manager makes contact with the recommended candidate and informs them of the offer subject to relevant conditions. The contact may address: • Remuneration package details • Relocation budget/costs • Availability for commencement • Clarify terms and conditions of appointment including tenure, probation etc. This should be undertaken immediately on receiving approval of the recommendation. Step 13: Make written offer of employment to candidate. HR will arrange for the formal written offer and contract of employment to be prepared (in accordance with the selection report) and dispatched within 1 day of receipt of the approved Selection Report and recommendation. Step 15: Arrange appointment and commence induction process. HR will ensure that all appointment documentation is stored on the Vacancy File and the appointment is finalised. This will include: • Obtaining a signed contract of employment • Update of all information/records (eg. ALESCO System) • Ensure induction is planned and conducted • Storage and retention of all original recruitment and selection documentation for 12 months in accordance with relevant records management guidelines. mine: Managers identify vacancy for reasons that can include: dismissal, leave, resignation, terminations, retirement or work requirement changes.

"I'm 63 and Im Tired" by Robert A. Hall I'm 63. Except for one semester in college when jobs were scarce and a six-month period when I was between jobs, but job-hunting every day, I've worked, hard, since I was 18. Despite some health challenges, I still put in 50-hour weeks, and haven't called in sick in seven or eight years. I make a good salary, but I didn't inherit my job or my income, and I worked to get where I am. Given the economy, there's no retirement in sight, and I'm tired. Very tired. I'm tired of being told that I have to "spread the wealth" to people who don't have my work ethic. I'm tired of being told the government will take the money I earned, by force if necessary, and give it to people too lazy to earn it. I'm tired of being told that I have to pay more taxes to "keep people in their homes." Sure, if they lost their jobs or got sick, I'm willing to help. But if they bought McMansions at three times the price of our paid-off, $250,000 condo, on one-third of my salary, then let the left-wing Congress-critters who passed Fannie and Freddie and the Community Reinvestment Act that created the bubble help them with their own money. I'm tired of being told how bad America is by left-wing millionaires like Michael Moore, George Soros and Hollywood Entertainers who live in luxury because of the opportunities America offers. In thirty years, if they get their way, the United States will have the economy of Zimbabwe , the freedom of the press of China , the crime and violence of Mexico , the tolerance for Christian people of Iran , and the freedom of speech of Venezuela . I'm tired of being told that Islam is a "Religion of Peace," when every day I can read dozens of stories of Muslim men killing their sisters, wives and daughters for their family "honor"; of Muslims rioting over some slight offense; of Muslims murdering Christian and Jews because they aren't "believers"; of Muslims burning schools for girls; of Muslims stoning teenage rape victims to death for "adultery"; of Muslims mutilating the genitals of little girls; all in the name of Allah, because the Qur'an and Shari'a law tells them to. I'm tired of being told that "race doesn't matter" in the post-racial world of Obama, when it's all that matters in affirmative action jobs, lower college admission and graduation standards for minorities (harming them the most), government contract set-asides, tolerance for the ghetto culture of violence and fatherless children that hurts minorities more than anyone, and in the appointment of U.S. Senators from Illinois. I think it's very cool that we have a black president and that a black child is doing her homework at the desk where Lincoln wrote the Emancipation Proclamation. I just wish the black president was Condi Rice, or someone who believes more in freedom and the individual and less arrogantly of an all-knowing government. I'm tired of a news media that thinks Bush's fundraising and inaugural expenses were obscene, but that think Obama's, at triple the cost, were wonderful; that thinks Bush exercising daily was a waste of presidential time, but Obama exercising is a great example for the public to control weight and stress; that picked over every line of Bush's military records, but never demanded that Kerry release his; that slammed Palin, with two years as governor, for being too inexperienced for VP, but touted Obama with three years as senator as potentially the best president ever. Wonder why people are dropping their subscriptions or switching to Fox News? Get a clue. I didn't vote for Bush in 2000, but the media and Kerry drove me to his camp in 2004. I'm tired of being told that out of "tolerance for other cultures" we must let Saudi Arabia use our oil money to fund mosques and madrassa Islamic schools to preach hate in America , while no American group is allowed to fund a church, synagogue or religious school in Saudi Arabia to teach love and tolerance. I'm tired of being told I must lower my living standard to fight global warming, which no one is allowed to debate. My wife and I live in a two-bedroom apartment and carpool together five miles to our jobs. We also own a three-bedroom condo where our daughter and granddaughter live. Our carbon footprint is about 5% of Al Gore's, and if you're greener than Gore, you're green enough. I'm tired of being told that drug addicts have a disease, and I must help support and treat them, and pay for the damage they do. Did a giant germ rush out of a dark alley, grab them, and stuff white powder up their noses while they tried to fight it off? I don't think Gay people choose to be Gay, but I damn sure think druggies chose to take drugs. And I'm tired of harassment from cool people treating me like a freak when I tell them I never tried marijuana. I'm tired of illegal aliens being called "undo

My wife is now a stay at home mother. I have a good job and am investing appropriately out of MY income for our retirement. She did however have a full time job in the past and has a little over 4k in a 401k.. Would it be worth it to just cash it out and use for savings and/or other investments? We are doing OK financially, this isn't a move of desperation. I just wonder if there are better things we could be doing with that money instead. Thanks in advance for your answers!!

Im starting to get very desperate... im an engineering student its my senior year.. Im struggling to pay my rent and my credit has gone down hill becuz I cant manage it due to my rent... For 7 months ive been trying to get just a basic 2nd job.. Best Buy, Harris teeter, lowes, the carwash, retirement homes, EVEN the 2010 Census where on the test I only missed 1 question and had highest score of the applicants in my group.. but NO ONE will hire me it seems!! its so depressing and hard to manage school because im always worrying about how Im going to pay my rent and car payment.. My job I work now pays VERY WELL but I only work on weekend since n school..I have no record... all Im trying to get is a simple damn job where a highschool kid could work! I dont need alot of $$!!!!.. Im not even sure if a Fast food resturant will hire me but I guess I have to stoop down to that now! Im now starting to see how rough some peoples lifes really are.. Anyone have any suggestions or know places that dont check credit! I swear I dont have a record so it must be my credit! my rent is around $500 and my car payment is around $200 not to mention its a 2003 Cadillac ( lol gas) but I love the car to death.. it keeps me happy.. $700 a month sounds like alot for a college student but I pull around $1000 a month working just my part-time job I have now.. but I worked there since highschool thats why I make alot there. but still add gas in and it aint nothin after bills... Only reason I got so much was because during summers I use to work FULL time and Make $3,500 a month and save it.. but I couldnt last time because I worked an internship and was on leave from my partime job

Simple question. I have my own insurance so i don't need it. I made sure I got a good job to pay for it by working my A$$ off in college to pay for my own stuff and a good retirement. I don't believe in govt handouts. So how about amending the Census forms to ask if you want Obamacare... and then you have to zero out your standard deductions on your tax forms from now on to pay for it if you do. Why would you be against that?? You would have health care for all and it would be paid for then wouldn't it? Problem solved. Remember... .Health care is very important to you. So why not do that for the thousands of people that are dying every day like you folks claim. That is the least you can do right? That way you can share the obamacare that none of the dems on congress want for themselves anyway. Bring on the smart A** answers to that... I need a good laugh tonight Ok instead of the std deduction you just zero out the exemptions. That is the very least you could do. And remember! you dont' get any tax breaks for it!! The new ever expanding debt needs that money. I still don't want mine raised. Read the question. I said only for people that want it so bad. Hey welcome to costco.... Who's war is it now? Yes.. Obama's. It has been for quite a while now... Try again HAHA professor chaos! true that. I'll take that deal anyday Greg!! But you have to pay for the failed stimulus bill, Bloated budget, and Bloated omnibus bills. Pab... oh but forcing people to buy health insurance is right? Like I said to your lib buddies.... Try again. Plus I do pay a lot for my healthcare... but it it a H** of a lot better than any public option would think about being. Archergirl... Hey republicans can sign up too.. they just follow the same rules. And the rest of us conservatives will pay for ours which is better than anything a public option can put out.

I'm trying to hold out on my job as long as I can, but with rheumatoid arthritis its becoming more difficult to work. I need the insurance now. What do you suggest?

My desire is to work on computers as part time job worker from home and earn substantial amount of money for me and my family's easy life as it was before when I was working before retirement. I am good at computers and so I think that I can do something useful and monetarily earn my livelihood from home. Please give sound advise, so that things shall work good and faster for me.

Yesterday I had a phone interview for my food-stamp renewal and I just blurted out something and it was a lie. I do not work and i am only a full time student with my young daughter living with my grandmother. She gets social security and retirement and she has a part time job. When the lady called, and asked if anyone worked i just blurted out no and then i had to keep going along with it. I feel horrible and i am really scared that i will get in trouble. I have never been in trouble in my life and i know what I did was wrong and I hae no idea why i said no. I have a bad habit of blurting things out and i hate it!!! I feel horrible!!! I hate myself right now. Im really scared. I want to call back and tell the truth but i don't know how to explain this to them without sounding like an idiot or like i was trying to cheat the government. Does anyone have any suggestions about how I can explain this to them or what i can say. Serious answers only. I know what i did was wrong and unethical so please don't respond by telling me that. I am trying to fix this. I don't care if i don't get food-stamps anymore, I will make due, i just do not want to get in trouble.

Im only a junior and high school, worked my ass off down to this day in school, only to discover all i have to show for my hard work is a piece of paper on which all my grades are recorded, and it is by this same piece of paper that i will be judged and looked through, all for what? To make money. I'm so sick and tired of putting so much time and effort in something i really have nothing to show for. Hell, in the past 16 years of my life (eh 11-12 years) i could have been training in a sport in which i would now be at least be good at, or a martial art, i'd be be close to getting my black belt by now. I envy those shaolin monks in china, while their stories may be less than one might consider fortunate, there hard work and effort comes with its share of rewards. Back flips, extreme flexibility strength, super human like abilitys such as being able to keep there core body temperature at a certain level to avoid freezing to death (may not have been shaolin monks, but it was some sort of monk). Their ability to meditate 6hours+ a day is a feat in itself! I really have no motivation to try in school whatsoever, its quite alarming to me but i have no desire to care. I'm trying to shake some sense into myself and keep myself focused but it seems so useless. In theory, would it be possible for someone (an american), who had been born into a middle class family, with all the luxuries of the modern world, to separate themselves for an extended period of time from the materialistic world in which they were used to many luxuries that many people around the world lived without? I truly admire the self discipline held by martial artists and monks, while it may sound like a romanticized reality i do understand the hard work and dedication they put into the things they do. I realize by separating myself would mean no yahoo answers, no ipod, no tv,nice clothes,good food, but at the same time i could live life to its fullest, without the restrictions of modern society, no 41k, no "retirement", just living life. No, not like a bum. I wouldn't be begging for money and living in american complaining about the government, but live somewhere in asia or south american, not separated from society, but far enough to live life with no obligations from society. My parents may disown me, but what the hell? they have absolutely nothing to show for their hard work, my mother may never be able to do things she wanted because of work and by the time she retires she will only have enough to live off safely until she dies. And no "well that's why you go to school, to make lots of money". She could have done what she wanted if it wasn't for the restrictions of society. More money does nothing for you, nice clothes, cars, houses, but when you die, and ask yourself, did i ever do something with my life? Did i truly do something? I dont know, im having a tough time swallowing the whole hs>college>job(money)>retirement>death. Just need an educated college graduate to slap the sense in me. I'd like to thank everyone to has replied to my post, i know its a giant wall of text but it thank you for taking your time to read it, and help me the best you could. All of your answers have opened up unseen routes before, and i do not feel as lost as i have before. I realize that i may not be able to live the way i want to, and may want to come back and "rejoin" "normal" society, but i will do my best to set my aspirations and follow through, life committment is an achievement in itself.

A guy came up to me and offer a job that I can get a license for a broker only for 1 month and this what they do offering life insurance,auto and help w/ the retirement plans but I have to pay $99 for background check :o ??? So I went online and check it I found out that they have hidden charges every month $25 for some computer maintenance for your file???? The stupid thing I did is I gave my credit card number cause they want it to be automatic when they gonna charge the $99. So when he left I went to my bank and cancel the card. There's actually more on the story like he said IRA is better that 401k and they want it to turn it to a long term mutual fund hahahaha :O ???

My primary residence is in Michigan and a few years ago I purchased a second home in Florida because I moved there for work and also figured it could be a future retirement home. After living in the FL home for a couple years I got a new job in Michigan and moved back in June 09, and began renting the FL home in July 09. My intention is to rent the property for about 5 years and then retire and have a summer home in MI and winter home in FL. Since it was rental property for part of 2009, do I deduct half of the expenses (mortgage interest, real estate taxes, etc.) on schedule A and then transfer the home to rental property the rest of the year and complete schedule E? Going forward should I complete schedule E and depreciate the property? Thanks.

I am worried that I will never make enough money to be comfortable when I near retirement age. I have recently left Uni and my degree has got me nowhere. I wanted to become a teacher but that fell by the wayside due to lack of neccessary qualifications. I temporarily live with my parents as I am unemployed and looking for work since leaving Uni but all the jobs I have found are minimum wage jobs with hardly enough money to keep for myself. My sister and her boyfriend have both secured a mortgage but as I am not in a relationship and/or likely to secure a job that pays well enough to get one. How am I ever going to have enough money to live into retirement? I worry about this because of the following reasons: 1. I don't want to live from pay check to pay check. I want to earn what I get and put the money to good use. 2. There is a history of arthritis and heart conditions in my family. What if I get sick or slowly become incapacitated and loose my job, I'll loose my home. 3. I don't want to be flat-sharing for ever and a day with strangers. I want to have my own space but i've just applied for a job earning £12,349. On that wage, it is impossible. 4. At some point I want a family, how can I possible support a family on a wage like that? Can someone advise me on how to manage my affairs wisely? or give me a heads up on what you did in a similar situation? HELP! I'm really dispairing.

So i work at a non profit retirement community as a server (waiter) i been there for about 2 years already. lately in the past month the executive director fired a couple of people including my manager. So the word around the dinning room (where i work) is that there trying to get rid of the one that been working there to hire new people and pay them less. in the state of texas. is that legal?

A former New Yorker and Floridian, I recently relocated to downtown Los Angeles and am constantly told by men and women of all ages that I look like I'm in my late thirties or around 40 at most, while NOT wearing make-up ('m an AARP member and always have to show my driver license to prove my age!). At 5ft. 8", with shoulder length hair that's barely streaked with gray in the back, I'm still the same size 4 to 6 from my teens, college and twenties part-time modeling "for fun" days. I presently see many attractive mature models in magazines that cater to mature adults, admittedly more for products rather than editorial. Many fashion shows featuring (very gorgeous) senior, and dare I say it-gray-haired models (gasp!), are in upscale, retirement areas like Sarasota where I used to live or I imagine, in the one here in Southern CA (Laguna Woods). I'm open to (and am experienced in) department store print, hair product print, runway, trade show, and tea room, garment district showroom, cruise ship and department store fashion modeling. I would like to also do catalog and travel brochure work that caters to the mature woman for publications such as such as Appleseed's or the Tog Shop, Silversea, Seabourn, or Cunard Line luxury cruise brochures, or for magazines like More or Senior Life or even the AARP magazine. The mature market is vibrant and fashionable! Baby boomer women have plenty of disposable income. We are very interested in companies, designers, stores, cultural venues, cruise lines, resorts, magazines, etc. that are interested in the upscale, fashionable mature market. We will respond favorably to ads featuring age appropriate models such as for beauty firms anti-aging creams and hair coloring products, or cruse line and resort vacations or designer cruise and evening wear. Our market is definitely not just about insurance, medical alert and denture products. It would be very helpful to know the following: -Which agencies or agents do these companies work with to secure their models from? -How do I best approach them? -Do any of the agencies/agents hold open calls? -Do seperate agencies exist for Los Angeles Fashion District modeling (Fashion week and showroom) and trade show modeling? -Does a book, trade paper, newsletter or service organization exist with information on opportunities for mature models and feeback from mature models consistently working? -Do any agencies/casting agents accept unsolicited mailings? -Are e-mailed photos preferred over hard copy mailings? -Do I need to have my own website, blog and/or social media page(s)? -Do I need to join the Screen Extras Guild and AFTRA in oder to be eligible for jobs in videos, commercials, training films or other films? I have an 8 1/2" x 11 color head shot and am considering taking more photos in a variety of "looks". Thank you. for any suggestions you can offer . My e-mail address is vnews52@yahoo.com. Viva

Here is the situation, a lot of things have been happening fast, and I'm stuck at a crossroad. College is coming up real soon, and at this point I'm confused on what I should go in for. I'm constantly back and forth between teaching (always been what I wanted to do) and going into business (I studied this all throughout high school, and even a little bit on the college level). I under with teaching, it's low paying, but rewarding, and I have to complete anywhere from 4-6 years of school to find a job. With going into business, I can continue working for the company I do now and move up into management (making for $100,000 annually), I don't really have to go to college, but I think it would help me out to at least get a associate degree, or maybe even a bachelor's degree one day. I'm very conservative, so I don't really like taking risks, with going into teaching I consider that a risk, because 4-6 years of school can get expensive, and it's not promised I could get a job as a teacher, then I would be stuck. With staying where I am at now, I could retire 7-8 years before I could teaching, it's a secure job, and I believe I have what it takes to move up into the management position. What would you do in my situation? I know it's a weird question, and I know I'm too young to be thinking of retirement, but I've always been a planner, I can't stand doing something without a direction of which it might take me. I typically always have a back-up plan. One reason why I am more shifted to stay where I am at now is that I could maybe even go into some kind of business venture myself. I've done numerous projects in school where I had to write a business plan, or something of that nature. It's always been somewhat of a dream of mine to open a restaurant of my own (I love to grill, and I love bbq, so I would open a bbq restaurant). I'm not looking for a smart-a response, I am looking for some advice, maybe someone who has traveled down the path I am looking at now. Thank you in advance.

Seems no one wants a seasoned attorney anymore. Need to find a job asap. Not yet ready for retirement. Looking for personal injury position. Would like sites to search. Have searched lawjobs.com extensively and am not sure of other sites that might help. Thanks for any help you can shed.

Good things about WWE: They have a good large range of talent and can have 2 main event feuds at the same time, interlinking, and that could mean from basic tag matches, to Chris Jericho vs John Cena with Edge as special ref and batista as enforcer, and at the moment, I Think Vince is going outside his comfort zone, with the montreal screwjob storyline, and they are keeping it Simple. Also a return to TV-14 is likely, as vince had no competition before, and therefore it is based on the $£$£. Also, they are dealing without both Shane, and only limited services of stephanie. They are also getting legends back such as stone cold and Rowdy Roddy Piper. And are no longer afraid of face/ heel turns. I ama only focusing on ONE negative, and that is that the WWE is VERY VERY VERY predictable. Maryse returning, HBK vs taker in a retirement match, Edge returning, and lastly, Legacy disbanding. TNA: I am dissapointed at the current storylines more than anything, but i literally mean the new AJ Gimmick, could work with a bit of spark, but is just so cheesy, but AJ is always great as a face or a heel. Hulk is doing a great job as the balancer, as in the face, but Bischoff is an AMAZING heel, and i just want to say, his backstage job is KEY! but they are getting mixed up with who to push: Where is Hernandez? Beer Money?? STING!! But alsothe KO Division!! But just as much: Inbalance of wrestling/promos!! Despite ma moan on TNA, BVK is TNA#########!! BQ1- WWE or TNA? BQ2- What r ur opinions on my opinions? BQ3- What r ur opinions overall? BQ3- Smackdown or Impact? BQ4- RAW or Impact? BQ5- Do u find The Dragon Overrated?? kL, Just lettin u know that i do strongly respect and appreciate the dragon and his impact here in the ws, it was just a general question, K??

Interviews were on going she had been told she did not have the job! The job she had been doing for the past 28 years has been given to younger inexperienced staff who dont know what they are doing. My friend is 5 years away from retirement. She has been offered another post, but her wages will be minimum wage with a flat rate of hours, though until now she has had plenty of overtime with no complaints of her work. She works for the NHS in the UK, what rights does she have. interviews were on going she had been told she did not have the job!

I just found out that I will only collect about $300.00 dollars a month when I retire. That is not enough to live on. I'm out of work. Unable to find a job and its beginning to look like I will have to resort to retirement to exist.

I'm active duty military halfway to retirement and collecting a pension for the rest of my life. I don't enjoy the job though. I have no kids and very manageable debt. I have the new GI Bill. I've always wanted to be my own boss or go into music. Judgement call time...I have 6 mos left..
