Open Question: Why is Chrysler sitting at the free money trough with Ford and GM? (Fri, 03 Sep 2010 16:46:55 GMT)

Ford and GM are publicly traded companies and their stock is subject to impact average Americans and their retirement plans. I don't agree with a bail out, but I see why they are at the table begging. I can't believe no Senator or Representative in either of these trips to Washington asked Chrysler why they were there also. They are a private firm held by a private company that has plenty of money. If they need money shouldn't they just ask the parent company for it? Are we really going

Resolved Question: Widow's pension when emigrating? (Thu, 08 Jul 2010 11:01:08 GMT)

I am currently receiving monthly widow's pension from my late husband's employer. I am planning on moving to the US because my entire family is there and I will have a better life. I am, however, very concerned about this pension income and how I will receive it and who will tax it. It won't be a better life if both the UK and the US tax it and what I'm left with is so little that I have to work 2 jobs. It's causing a great deal of anxiety.

Resolved Question: Should I put more money away? (Wed, 02 Jun 2010 21:24:20 GMT)

I am currently putting away 20% (before tax) of my income into 3 different retirement plans (7% on 401K, another 7% on 457 plan and 6% on pension plan). I make about 97K a year on a steady basis, more or less. For those who are curious, I work for the County as a System Administrator. Anyhow, doing the math, about 20% of 97K is $19,400. Which leaves an adjusted gross $77,600. I don't really have a firm understanding of how tax brackets work or how the whole tax thing in general works. B
