MSully76 - Thanks for your input. I guess the best approach is to simply go there and check it out.........

MSULLY76 - How did you arrange to locate a place to stay in Naples from Boston? Did you physically go down and look around, use a realtor, stay with friends until you located a place, etc? I live in PA and would like to explore Naples as well, but not sure as to the best way to approach the...

OUCH! Molson cutting off free beer supply for retirees - World business- msnbc.com

ZMAN, I have the good fortune that my eye doctor is an avid golfer. He fixed me up with a pair of bifocal sun glasses where he moved the bifocal part of the lens as low as he could on the eye piece. This allows me to be able to read the score card (much to my dismay) and allows me to look over...

I was an "O" in a USAR medical unit where at times some of the "O" slots were given to a higher headquarters unit. This left some folks who were close to retirement without a home or they had to transfer to another unit. The soulution was for them to go the other way...they became an "E" and...

The large firms such as the ADP's of the world do a good job. I would caution you to do some homework if you choose to use an unknown local or regional firm. I have seen instances where the service provider did not remit the payroll taxes and went bankrupt. You are still liable for the unpaid...

The FAFSA form asks for the amount in the student bank account as well as earnings information as reported on their tax return. The information reported is as of the date the report was signed. Therefore, I believe that your student would not report this settlement until the cash is actually...

Clearly, there were a large number of folks who did not understand what they were getting into. Many were simply trying to buy a home for their family. However, from what I read/seen, there are hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of people heading into the financial ditch due to taking on...

Along the same lines, how about the term "Working Family"? Aren't most families working families? Of course, this is just political code.

We all have seen/read the various profiles of families who are now in trouble and are about to go under. Maybe I am a little old fashioned, but many of these folks borrowed every last penny they could based on the most optimistic cash flow assumptions without any contingency for an unexpected...

Yup....Even though the book is over 10 years old, it appears that LBYM hasn't gone out of style. I thought that maybe some of the "Young Dreamers" would find this short refresher beneficial.
