We know that money is not the root of all evil, but we know that people who are evil have their greed factor way out of control. Look at what's happened in the past 8 years. Tremendous losses throughout the world all caused by greed ......... and most people are suffering as a result.

We have the cure for what this financial crisis in the world is doing to your personal life. But, no matter what's occurred in your life, your company, your family because of the last 8 years it can be overcome. The process is simply study The Course on Money.

Public education doesn't teach us how to make a living, get wealth, create wealth, keep wealth, or how to find inner peace. Standardized (or sub-standard) if you compare it to the rest of the world. It's the pits, really. The same goes for sub-standard insurance coverages, sub-standard medical care - what happened?

For almost 30 years, Dr. Jay Polmar has taught one great theory - THINK RIGHT. Over the past 29 years, he's helped 100,000 people around the world with his self-taught courses, which are just like being with Jay in a classroom in Hawaii, or in New Mexico and learning these amazing methods. It's because the courses have audio and it's just like listening to him.

To Dr. Jay it's: why be surprised that this happened? Look who we elected, and how he's taken the nation down -- $500 billion deficit this year alone ... pretty darned amazing. Are we safer? On a personal note, that deficit hasn't included the last crisis on Wall Street. The economy looks gloomy! How's your own economy?

How is your personal economy? Would you like to learn from the secrets that Dr. Jay Polmar taught since 1979 .... before many people even knew there was a Law of Attraction. Yes, our politicians and terrorism attracted financial gloom to the world. That was the price of the war on terror! And for those unaffected by terrorism, they were affected by the war on druglords, the war on starving - everyone seems to be at war. War beguts suffering. Peace beguts successes! Why not focus on successes!

War doesn't work! Success, and attracting money and multiples of things you want in life does work. When you are told not to be creative, to follow the orders - you often die trying. But, when you are creative, open your intuition, and have your mind programmed as a money machine - you can only be the winner and more successful.

Until the end of this year, all those who purchase the Course on Money, will also get, once a month for 5 months, a bonus series, on the Millionaire MindSet. That's 5 different 40 - 80 page books on how to achieve and operate the Millionaire mindset.

Dr. Jay Polmar, is no longer teaching, but is kind of retired on a hill in a bilingual part of a Major City in Central Mexico, writing books and courses to help a struggling world.

In the Phoenix Housing Market, I have noticed an increase in the followingsituation. A seller (normally a bank) will refuse to make any repairs. The buyercan't get financing because ofthe needed repairs. What do you do? (Legally)
The FHA 203(k) may be the answer. The 203k product is an FHA program that deals with properties that need repairs to qualify.
If any of the following apply, you should ask a lender about the FHA 203(k) program.

If youd like to see proof of how these loans ruin peoples lives, go to www.prosper.com, an online lending site.  You can find many examples of people who started owing very small amounts that quickly grew into enormous sums they could never pay off.  A good movie that addresses this topic (and credit in general) is Maxed Out, a documentary.
Say NO to these types of loans, and find other ways to get your money in the short term.  Whether its borrowing from a friend or family member, or sometimes even your boss can give you an advance on your paycheck.  If you continuously find yourself needing money before payday, the problem lies in how you are managing your money. 
Most people in this country are 90 days or less away from bankruptcy.  That means if they lose their job, become ill, or have some other unplanned for expense that equals 3 months of income, bankruptcy looms.  Dont be in that majority.  Set money aside until you have 6 months worth of expenses in a savings account or other fixed investment.  This way, when tragedy strikes (and it will eventually, it happens to everyone at some point), you can handle itwhether its illness, your car breaking down, needing to move unexpectedly, or being laid off. 
The payday lenders know they will make their money because people continuously use them and pay their outrageous fees.  Its a terrible trap, dont fall into it even once.

According to Reuters " Interest rates on the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage dropped to an average of 5.14 percent for the week ending Wednesday, down from the previous week's 5.19 percent, Freddie Mac said. The 30-year fixed-rate mortgage has not been lower since Freddie Mac started the Primary Mortgage Market Survey in 1971."
What people do, they first want to access to their free credit reports to see what is their score.
The Federal Trade Commission has put together a good explanation and QA as to how one gets a free credit score by checking the credit report. Here is that information, provided partially, below.
The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) requires each of the nationwide consumer reporting companies — Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion — to provide you with a free copy of your credit report, at your request, once every 12 months. The FCRA promotes the accuracy and privacy of information in the files of the nation’s consumer reporting companies. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation’s consumer protection agency, enforces the FCRA with respect to consumer reporting companies.
A credit report includes information on where you live, how you pay your bills, and whether you’ve been sued or arrested, or have filed for bankruptcy. Nationwide consumer reporting companies sell the information in your report to creditors, insurers, employers, and other businesses that use it to evaluate your applications for credit, insurance, employment, or renting a home.
Here are the details about your rights under the FCRA and the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions (FACT) Act, which established the free annual credit report program.
Q: How do I order my free report?
A: The three nationwide consumer reporting companies have set up a central website, a toll-free telephone number, and a mailing address through which you can order your free annual report.
To order, visit annualcreditreport.com, call 1-877-322-8228, or complete the Annual Credit Report Request Form and mail it to: Annual Credit Report Request Service, P.O. Box 105281, Atlanta, GA 30348-5281. The form is on the back of this brochure; or you can print it from ftc.gov/credit. Do not contact the three nationwide consumer reporting companies individually. They are providing free annual credit reports only through annualcreditreport.com, 1-877-322-8228, and Annual Credit Report Request Service, P.O. Box 105281, Atlanta, GA 30348-5281.
You may order your reports from each of the three nationwide consumer reporting companies at the same time, or you can order your report from each of the companies one at a time. The law allows you to order one free copy of your report from each of the nationwide consumer reporting companies every 12 months.
A Warning About “Imposter” Websites
Only one website is authorized to fill orders for the free annual credit report you are entitled to under law — annualcreditreport.com. Other websites that claim to offer “free credit reports,” “free credit scores,” or “free credit monitoring” are not part of the legally mandated free annual credit report program. In some cases, the “free” product comes with strings attached. For example, some sites sign you up for a supposedly “free” service that converts to one you have to pay for after a trial period. If you don’t cancel during the trial period, you may be unwittingly agreeing to let the company start charging fees to your credit card.
Some “imposter” sites use terms like “free report” in their names; others have URLs that purposely misspell annualcreditreport.com in the hope that you will mistype the name of the official site. Some of these “imposter” sites direct you to other sites that try to sell you something or collect your personal information.
Annualcreditreport.com and the nationwide consumer reporting companies will not send you an email asking for your personal information. If you get an email, see a pop-up ad, or get a phone call from someone claiming to be from annualcreditreport.com or any of the three nationwide consumer reporting companies, do not reply or click on any link in the message. It’s probably a scam. Forward any such email to the FTC at spam@uce.gov.
Q: What information do I need to provide to get my free report?
A: You need to provide your name, address, Social Security number, and date of birth. If you have moved in the last two years, you may have to provide your previous address. To maintain the security of your file, each nationwide consumer reporting company may ask you for some information that only you would know, like the amount of your monthly mortgage payment. Each company may ask you for different information because the information each has in your file may come from different sources.
Q: Why do I want a copy of my credit report?
A: Your credit report has information that affects whether you can get a loan — and how much you will have to pay to borrow money. You want a copy of your credit report to:
* Make sure the information is accurate, complete, and up-to-date before you apply for a loan for a major purchase like a house or car, buy insurance, or apply for a job.
* Help guard against identity theft. That’s when someone uses your personal information — like your name, your Social Security number, or your credit card number — to commit fraud. Identity thieves may use your information to open a new credit card account in your name. Then, when they don’t pay the bills, the delinquent account is reported on your credit report. Inaccurate information like that could affect your ability to get credit, insurance, or even a job.
Q: How long does it take to get my report after I order it?
A: If you request your report online at annualcreditreport.com, you should be able to access it immediately. If you order your report by calling toll-free 1-877-322-8228, your report will be processed and mailed to you within 15 days. If you order your report by mail using the Annual Credit Report Request Form, your request will be processed and mailed to you within 15 days of receipt.
Whether you order your report online, by phone, or by mail, it may take longer to receive your report if the nationwide consumer reporting company needs more information to verify your identity.
There also may be times when the nationwide consumer reporting companies receive a high volume of requests for credit reports. If that happens, you may be asked to re-submit your request. Or, you may be told that your report will be mailed to you sometime after 15 days from your request. If either of these events occurs, the nationwide consumer reporting companies will let you know.
Q: Are there any other situations where I might be eligible for a free report?
A: Under federal law, you’re entitled to a free report if a company takes adverse action against you, such as denying your application for credit, insurance, or employment, and you ask for your report within 60 days of receiving notice of the action. The notice will give you the name, address, and phone number of the consumer reporting company. You’re also entitled to one free report a year if you’re unemployed and plan to look for a job within 60 days; if you’re on welfare; or if your report is inaccurate because of fraud, including identity theft. Otherwise, a consumer reporting company may charge you up to $10.50 for another copy of your report within a
12-month period.
To buy a copy of your report, contact:
Equifax:1-800-685-1111; equifax.com
Experian: 1-888-397-3742; experian.com
TransUnion: 1-800-916-8800; transunion.com
Under state law, consumers in Colorado, Georgia, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Vermont already have free access to their credit reports.

There are people in Texas that are paying too much for their health insurance plan. Health insurance in Texas has become too much for some people to bear as far as payments are concerned. The good thing about this is, that there are plenty of health insurance plans available that you and other Texans can afford. What you have to do is conduct due diligence and research your information.

Here are some things that you can do to get your money's worth on a health insurance plan:

Don't get anything extra, especially if it's something you don't need. If you can get it later, than by all means do so. You must know the state of your health before you start adding options to your coverage.

If you are in very good health, you can skip all of the extra frills. You're wasting money by getting things that you're not going to use.

When researching for health insurance in Texas, you don't want to spend a lot of time looking for things that don't apply to you. You can pare down your research by typing in the city where you reside along with the words "health insurance". That way, you will be able scale down and not concern yourself with wasting time trying to look for things that you don't need. When you find something, don't rush through it. Find out what the information entails and decide whether or not it could be for you. Also, make sure that the insurance plan will fit your budget.

Getting an HMO (Health Maintenance Organization) health plan is a good choice. With this kind of health insurance in Texas, HMOs are one of the most cost-effective and affordable health plans available for most people. With an HMO, you are allowed to have doctors and medical facilities that belong to that particular network. Since having HMO health insurance is so affordable, it's one of the best that anyone can choose from.

For those people that are at least 25 years old, their health premiums would be cheaper than for people who are 30 years old. In essence, the younger you are, the less your premiums are. The older you are, the more you would have to pay. It seems as though older adults have more health challenges and therefore ending up paying more money for their premiums. You will find it that way with plenty of health insurance plans in Texas.

You may have to do some juggling and compromising when it comes to health insurance in Texas. When choosing health insurance coverage, it's like a smorgasbord. There may be some things that you need and there may be some things that you don't need. At this point, you are free to pick and choose what you need. Notice the keyword here is need, not want. What you need will help you to shave off some money so that you will be able to afford your insurance coverage.

When you consult with a health insurance agent, they normally won't charge you a few. However, some insurance companies may charge you for a paper application. If possible, you may want to go online and get the information. Fill out what you can online and submit it to the insurance company. Going online is a cheaper way to get health insurance in Texas. This is a great way to get all of the information you need.

390 million gallons of gasoline per day. If we assume California uses 1/8th, since they have about 1/8th of the population this equals 48.75 million gallons per day. Multiply by 365 days and you get around 17.8 billion gallons per year. If California were to charge a new tax of a dollar per gallon this would lead to around $17 Billion in revenue (assuming a slight decrease in driving).
This back of the envelope estimation might not be perfectly accurate, but it looks like the gasoline tax could help eliminate property taxes in the state. Getting rid of property taxes would make homes cheaper, but not lower their face value (sales price). It should help offset some downward pressure on home prices without the moral hazard problems of bailing them out. It also seems politically feasible given the "green" inclinations of the party in power.

The speed of processing of the loan also depends upon the amount you need. If you need smaller amounts, say 50 to 100 pounds, your application can be processed in two to three hours. For amounts up to 5000 pounds, it can take 24 hours, which is very less compared to the local money lenders. In case you need higher amounts, and you place a security collateral, it may take up to 36 hours. This reason, along with the reason that there are no credit checks, gives the loans the name: instant loans without credit check.

Most people have already begun to pay their bills by using their credit cards and then when that bill comes due; they use another credit card to pay that statement. This is not the way that you should be looking at getting out of debt.
the only true debt help relief is one that is going to allow you to keep paying on your bills; but is going to work with you to lower your interest rates.
2. Call Your Creditors: While this may sound simple; many people fail to give their creditors a call and let them know that they are facing some financial hard times.
Most of the time when you are honest with them; they will help ease the pain by lowering your interest rates or even letting you skip a payment until you get back on track.
3. Talk About Your Problems: People who fail to talk to someone about their financial problems and keep their problems bottled up; tend to have more problems in their marriage or relationships.
Getting out of debt can be difficult and a tough situation to admit to. However when you do find the debt relief that you are looking for then you will be happy that you knew where to find it or who to ask for assistance.

Looking for a new home can be exciting and for some a once in a lifetime experience. One often overlooked fact about a home is the taxing authorities. Buyers often overlook the fact that in addition to their mortgage payment will be an amount usually placed in escrow monthly to cover the taxes associated with the property. Knowing the taxing authorities before a home is purchased can save you thousands of dollars and make your monthly mortgage payment much more manageable.
For example, if a home of similar value is located within the county taxing authority only, you pay just county real estate taxes. However, if the same home is also located within the city limits, you pay city taxes as well. Together, city and county taxes can be several thousands of dollars annually, depending upon the assessment value of the home. If an employer does not require that an employee live within city limits, choose a home that is within county limits only. Annually, this could save hundreds if not thousands of dollars.
Cash back at closing is a great way to get a little cash to fix up a purchased property. For example, a seller is asking $150,000 for the home. Not wanting to negotiate, the buyer agrees to the full asking price providing the seller pays all closing costs and provides $3,000 back at closing to cover all minor problems found on the home inspection report. This is just one example of many to be considered. Be reasonable when asking for cash back at closing. The seller may not agree to pay all of your closing costs and give you cash too. However, its worth a try. An easy way to compute whether or not you are being reasonable is to ask your realtor at what percentage of the asking price do homes sell in the area. Lets say homes sell at 95% of the listing price. In our example, the seller would net $142,500 before commissions and other related expenses if the seller would sell the home to an average buyer.
However, you are asking for all closing costs and $3,000 in exchange for payment of the full $150,000 list price. The average closing costs in this example may be approximately $3,000. To the seller, thats a cost out of pocket of $6,000. It is better for the seller to take this offer because the seller retains $1500 more in net proceeds. However, if homes are sold at 98% of listing price in the area, the seller may not find the cash back offer and payment of closing costs at the request from the buyer at full price as attractive, knowing that it would only cost 2% of the listing price, which would be $3,000 at 98%.
Knowing the length of time the property has been listed on the real estate market can provide valuable insight for the buyer. The longer the home has been listed on the real estate market the more likely the seller is willing to negotiate. When negotiating, keep in mind that if you need cash, make that a part of your offer. Cash back at closing is a great way to put money in your pocket.
Most buyers need cash when buying a home. Knowing the taxing authority, asking for closing costs and cash back at closing, as well as knowing the length of time the property has been listed will put money in your pocket. Be patient in your search and look for a seller that is willing to negotiate either on price or cash back and paying closing costs.

Often times, when people are desperate for something, they get into more trouble than what they started with.  When it comes to debt, people are willing to do anything to get out of it and while most people dont realize that you cant just get out of it, many think that theres this magic button.  Guess what people?  There isnt!  Today, one of the main things that we are going to focus on are debt settlement companies and how they work.
A debt settlement company will generally collect money for you to pay off all of your creditors.  What they will do first is ask you that you pay an enrollment fee.  This is comparable to a gym membership, where you have to pay just to start.
After you pay the enrollment fee, they are going to look over all your unpaid balances with you.  From there, they will do everything that you can do on your own.  They are going to call up the credit card companies and try to knock your bill down by at least 50%.  Lets say you have a balance of $10,000 and they cut it down to $5,000.  They are going to lie and say they cut it down to $7,500 and pocket the extra 2,500 on top of your enrollment fee.
While there are great debt settlement companies out there, you have to make sure that you look for some things before you go and sign up for one.
Shop around:  Before you just find a place online and sign up, youre going to want to shop around.  Find the best deal and someone who offers the best fees.
Tells you the steps:  Dont work with a company thats shady.  Instead, find someone thats going to tell you what they are going to do for you.
Part of the BBB:  If the company isnt part of the BBB, dont even bother with them.  Most of the time, they wont register with the BBB because they are up to no good.  Find a company that is a member and work with that company only.
Works with a guarantee:  You wont want to work with a companythat doesnt promise anything.  Instead, find a company that will tell you that they can promise they can work with your credit card companies.  If the company doesnt want to work with you when it comes to a guarantee, Id go elsewhere.
In the long run, I would advise you look into fixing your debt yourself, a debt settlement company can be good if you find the right one but most of them are going to rip you off one way or the other.  Try some debt cutting tips yourself.  If that doesnt work, Id try a company like this.  In the end, just remember that debt doesnt go away over night.  Work hard, take action and good things will come.

Just calculate this scenario: James got 10 people just before his membership expired. His 10 joined, 1st week January. (The 10s memberships only ends by July) His 10 manage to get 10 each by first week February. (The now 100s memberships only ends by Augustus) His 100 manage to get 10 each by first week March (The now 1000s memberships only ends by September) His 1000 manage to get 10 each by first week April (The now 10,000s memberships only ends by October). Lastly the 10,000 on his 5th level manage to get 10 people each by first week May (The 100,000s memberships end in November).
Just calculate if you could be able to introduce/refer 100 people in your referral down line! You will earn $500,000 x 10 if everyone in your down line only went out to find 10 each. You will earn $5 with all of the people inside/ from their referrals. This means you could earn $5 million. And what did you do?
You have spend $25 (or $35 in total), and was able to refer 10 people in no longer than 1 months time. After that, you have done nothing, but receive thousands and thousands of $5 into your Alertpay account.
I want to make it very clear that this system I am talking about in the industry should not be even compared or associated with that what is being done traditionally in the cash gifting world. When I say Im referring to the thing where people receive money on their doorstep. THIS IS ILLEGAL. Period. Receiving money on your doorstep could also possibly send you straight to jail, as to: customers that was promised much, but was never being replied to, that may end up in much disputes in over dry. So you will be sitting with money of very upset consumers . . . Just figure the picture.
Secondly: Money SHOULD NEVER be distributed like that. This is very wrong. Because of this, surely people do not pay taxes at all, and this arouses another illegal activity. In fact: Why would you realy want to receive money on your doorstep? Why would you join companies like these that would want you to receive gifts like this? Doesnt it almost look like you are a robber here? A thief, that gets money from the backdoor? Stolen money? One could only think about the endless possibilities on where it could come from . . .
So is the system I am talking about like gifting?
Fortunately, the system I am introducing you to, is not illegal at all, as you firstly do not receive money on your doorstep but into you alertpay account (similar to paypal). Secondly, because of how the system works, each and every person will get paid (or rather will receive a gift) from someone else, directly. You will not get paid BY such a company or THROUGH it, like in a traditional world. Everyone gets paid directly by someone. This confirms and should bring total confidence about this opportunity to consumers, as they may know that they CANNOT BE SCAMMED. The money is not in the hands of a company.
But is this legal to receive money online like this?
You are required to pay your taxes by this system, even though they do not state it outrightfully/ by themselves insomuch. Believe me, if you hold an account with alertpay, they will see to it that paying your taxes, happens. Only the personal account with alertpay, which is free, is not accountable for taxes, as account activity is limited to $400 per month. If you would receive money more than $400 per month, your account will automatically be upgraded to personal pro account/business. This is eligible to pay tax. So why would this be illegal in any given way, if you would just pay your taxes? You will be receiving thousands of dollars per month! Wont you see yourself as a business? You are on any governments side for paying taxes.
Will the systems network marketing-concept work or is it going to collapse, one or the other time, just like most mlm schemes would end up?
The thing that puts most people off about this specific system, is that they think it is another scam, because of how many people there are required to be in a downline in order to come out to the $500,000. In other words, the : 1010x10 people. (100,000). You should not be worried about it at all, as each member will only have membership for 6 months long, as you perhaps have read earlier, in aid of the longevity of the system. And so that as many people can join (even if it was the whole world!).
Because of this, after 6 months, an expired member may just re-join by gifting $5 to 5 people again (directly into such a persons alertpay account),it makes the system sustainable and never to collapse as much mlm/ network marketing system tend to end up.
Whether you will make $2,500, $25,000, $75,000 or just a mere $250 in your first month, fact remains, either way it seems, you are going to score massively. With no other program or system are you going to get that kind of opportunity to just get 10 people and never need to do anything after, to still keep on getting money INCREASING AS TIME PASSES. Other mlm-systems will perhaps offer you a free membership, like the spiderwebnetwork . . . But HOW MANY PEOPLE WILL YOU NEED TO REFER to keep on making money?
continue to the main post makemoney275.wordpress.com about the best online cash gifting system that turns $25 into $75,000 and how to get the only 10 people you will ever need to make this money.

Bishop Ellis married my husband and I, and we received our marriage counseling from him. I was an active member at Greater Grace when I was attending the church, and spoke to my pastor on a regular basis. It’s pretty safe to say that I know this man about as well as a layperson can know their leader. So, being respectful of his spiritual office and my knowledge of who he is as an individual, I had to take a long, hard look at whether or not the hand of God was at work against my conservative values, which, ironically enough, are rooted in Christian faith. My politics are different than that of my former bishop, but we are of the same faith; we love and serve the same God. Yet, my convictions leaned right while his leaned left. I had to ask myself a very serious question:

Does God want America to bail out the Big Three?

While you may not be a Christian, I think that we can find our answer in the video clip of Bishop Ellis’ interview. He basically conveyed that it is his job to represent the interests of the people before God. I know that it is also his job to convey the interests of God before the people. Godly logic says that while the Lord’s perfect will would involve everyone taking full responsibility for their own actions and suffering the consequences nobly, the mercy of God dictates that the level of suffering must be bearable in order to be effective. Michigan is being chastised, but it does not appear that God wants us to be destroyed. Grace would not be grace if it were deserved. While Republicans like myself can argue that the automakers deserve to go bankrupt, maybe God is giving Michigan ‘greater grace’ than what politics would call for.

Maybe God heard his people saying, “Lord, have mercy”, and he decided to grant their request.

As it stands now, it appears to be inevitable that General Motors and Chrysler will receive most of the funds that they are requesting. George Bush needs some brownie points before he leaves office, and it looks like this is going to be the issue he tries to use to get them. Politics as usual. However, no matter how you slice it and what you may or may not believe, I can say one thing for sure:

Apparently, my God really does answer prayer.

President-elect Barack Obama's economic stimulus plan will include an immediate tax cut for middle-class families, and the incoming administration hopes to enact permanent tax cuts soon thereafter, a senior adviser to Obama said Sunday.

David Axelrod said the stimulus package will be implemented soon, given the worsening economy, and could cost $675 billion to $775 billion. The massive recovery plan will seek to create or save 3 million jobs, he said in appearances Sunday on NBC's "Meet the Press" and CBS's "Face the Nation."

"Look, we feel it's important that middle-class people get some relief now," Axelrod said on "Meet the Press." Obama has "promised a middle-class tax cut," he added. "This package will include a portion of that tax cut that will become part of the permanent tax cut he'll have in his upcoming budget."

Giving people more spending money will "help get our economy going again," Axelrod said. He also said he is hopeful that the recovery plan will be ready for Obama to sign soon after his Jan. 20 inauguration.

I don't like it either but if the money is not there then it's not there. Many in the private sector have lost jobs, state employees have been laid off and received a 10% pay cut. Vendor contracts have been cancelled. This evens out the load onto more people. I wish there was a way to let the recently unemployed, who have paid taxes get their refunds though; at least the rest of us are still working for the moment. You do what you have to do.
That said, I think the fleet of cars supplied to legislators should be sold off. Let them drive their own cars to work like the rest of us. The recent raises given out to already well paid legislative staff should be cut back like the rest of the state workers. A 10% decrease to a staffer making $80,000 a year is much less a burden for legislative staff than for the minimum wage DMV employee. Payments to special interest programs that aren't involved in assisting with the basic food, housing and medical needs of people without should be cut, etc. All this needs to be done PRIOR to our being issued IOUs.
Next step is to change your tax withholding so that you don't pay tax from your paycheck but rather hold the money yourself and pay quarterly. That way we can refuse to pay taxes until the legislators start doing their jobs. Pipe dream I know but nice thought.

Payday loans are short term loans which are required to be paid back by the next payday. Thus the tenure of these loans is very short, lasting for just 2-3 weeks. The amount of quick online payday loan is small and can range from £500 to £1500.
The interest rate for this sort of loan is on the higher side but since the tenure is very small the actual interest figure does not amount to much. But since faxless payday loans have higher fee and interest rates, they can become costly to the borrower if not managed responsibly. Therefore before you start looking for a payday loan company ask yourself following questions.

Moving can be a complicated process, let alone picking up and moving to another state or cross country. One must find a home, schools, perhaps even a job for a spouse, not to mention get a feel for the community before settling in on a new location.
We wouldrecommend taking the following steps to ensure that when it comes time to move to a distant location, the process is smooth and simple. At the end of the day, it is all about research.
First, Get Organized. When moving many miles away it makes sense to organize a list of the key information required before deciding where to live.

In most cases, the destination of the average family vacation is not decided on what place has the nicest hotels, the most scenic views, or any other attraction that is present in any given area. More often than not, it is decided by the budget. In the end, the cheapest getaway spot is generally the one that wins out. Unfortunately, it is not always the type of vacation that you would prefer. The everyday citizen, the nine to five blue-collar type, simply cannot afford to go running off to the best vacation destinations in the world. He or she just does not have that kind of money. Nevertheless, many would be surprised to find that all the great vacation spots do not have to cost an arm and a leg, if one is clever enough to do the research first.

Let's take Honolulu Hawaii for example. This lovely city located on the scenic tropical island of Oahu is one of the world's premier vacation spots for the rich and famous. Everyone loves the beaches and the palm trees. Most average citizens do not even consider this as a destination. They automatically assume that the trip is going to be way out of their budget, so it isn't even contemplated. This, however, is not entirely the truth. If you can afford a plane ticket to get to Honolulu and accommodations when you get there, you can find a fairly reasonably priced vacation awaiting you.

Take a look at the beaches, for instance. Oahu beaches, particularly those around the city of Hawaii, are all absolutely free. There is no cost to lie upon the beach, soaking up the sunshine. The scenic view of the turquoise water with majestic white-crusted waves is one hundred percent free. The children's sand castles that they build cost nothing at all, nor does the fun they have splashing around at the waters edge. It's completely free for the taking.

Then there are attractions such as the Diamond Head Hiking trail. A walk along this trail up the side of a majestic volcano is yours for the taking at no charge, nor is the lovely waterfalls trail that leads an hour into the forest to a massive two hundred foot waterfall. So far this would, at this point, make for the vacation of a lifetime, and you still haven't spent a single dime on attractions!

As restaurants go, of course, there are going to be some expensive places to eat in a massive city such as Honolulu, but then, in a city of this size, you can always expect to find the more affordable chain restaurants also. After all, who doesn't like a good McDonalds Hamburger every once in a while? And then, when you consider how much money that you have actually saved on the attractions up to this point, you will be able to treat yourself to something extra on the trip. You can choose from numerous water parks, amusement parks, museums, and other attractions. You may even be surprised to find how affordable these can actually be.

This year, when planning your budget vacation, do not automatically knock out the worlds number one vacation spot just because you assume you can't afford it. Do a little bit of research and find out that Honolulu Hawaii may go beyond being a dream, and become a dream come true.

There are several instances where using a mortgage broker could be beneficial to you. If you do not have the time or desire to research lenders and their mortgage products a good broker could do it for you; however, mortgage brokers don?t always have your best interests at heart as they are paid on a commission basis.
Another situation where a mortgage broker could help you is if you have bad credit. If you have a poor credit rating, mortgage brokers can find lenders that specialize in bad credit mortgages. These bad credit lenders are called ?sub prime? mortgage lenders and a good broker can find you a better deal with one of these lenders.
To their credit mortgage brokers have relationships with a variety of mortgage lenders and can find deals you would not know about otherwise. The problem with a mortgage broker is they want to get paid for their services. There is nothing wrong with that; however, greedy mortgage brokers often take advantage of the trust people place in them.
If you decide to use a mortgage broker you should shop for a broker just like you would shop for a new car or kitchen appliance. Call a variety of mortgage brokers and compare their fees; ask each mortgage broker for references and make sure you get everything they promise you in writing. By shopping from a variety of mortgage brokers you will be able to determine what a fair price for the service is.
Pay very close attention to all of the fine print your mortgage broker gives you. Make sure all of your personal information is accurate and the lender and broker have disclosed all fees and who they are going to. If the broker wants to charge a fee for guaranteeing an interest rate, find out if this is really what the fee is for. Many brokers simply pocket the fee when the lender is guaranteeing your interest rate at no charge.
You can always use a mortgage lender to get quotes from different lenders and then contact those lenders directly.
There should be no fee for comparison shopping. In many cases you are better off doing the legwork yourself; if you take the time and do your homework you can be sure you are receiving the best deal for your mortgage.

For the 11 days between Dec. 24 and Jan. 4, 18 UH Manoa buildings are partially or fully shutting off their air conditioning.
In Hawaii Hall, which houses chancellor and vice chancellor offices, the second and third floors still have air conditioning, but it's been shut off on the first floor, where academic affairs officer Tim Merrill works.
"It's a little warm, but it's not too bad," Merrill said. "It's a little warm, but it's doable."
Other employees in UH buildings without air conditioning either are working from home, taking vacation or temporarily working from other offices where the air conditioning is still on.
"In the digital world we're living in, with things and files more accessible on the Web, and on your computer, you can pick up a laptop and move to an office where it's a little more convenient," Merrill said. "I might do that this afternoon. Depending on the warmth, if the sun stays out in the Valley, and warms things up in the building, it may get a little steamy in the basement."
UH Manoa officials hope to save anywhere from $50,000 to $70,000 during this first-ever partial air-conditioning shutdown.
"What Manoa Green Days is is an effort on a pilot project to show that we can operate on a more sustainable manner by reducing costs," university spokesman Gregg Takayama said.
University officials are considering shutting off power to some of its buildings altogether during future school vacations.
"So we can do that perhaps in the future holiday breaks or summer breaks, and so this is a trial to see how far we can push it," Takayama said.
UH did not cut air conditioning to buildings housing research labs with temperature-sensitive experiments or equipment, or to libraries that were open for research or student services buildings.

Lenders are cracking down on lock commitments.  The rate locks are coming with conditions, meaning that the loan file needs to be submitted to underwriting within ten business days.  This means that a title report needs to be supplied (3-5 days) and an appraisal needs to be uploaded (7-8 days).  That leaves very litle time for deliberation, if mortgage rates just touch 4.5%.
As such, deposits for appraisals, condominium certifications, and/or credit reports need to be supplied at rate lock commitment.  What this means is that your originator will collect about 4 or 5 hundred bucks from you.  I have no doubt that some of the originators who comment on my articles will try to sell you with the comment that upfront fees are evil or take your time and decide.  Others will say that Im using fear to intimidate you.
Okayfine.  Ive worked in financial services, both trading mortgage-backed securities and originating mortgages, since 1989.  It is my professional advice that you need to be prepared if you choose to take advantage of this opportunity.  These are unusual times with extraordinary benefits for the swift.  Banks know that they hold the upper hand with these low mortgage rates; theyll only reward the prepared.
Contact me if you have questions. The phone is the most efficient and reliable medium.
PS:  The requirements to get this magical rate will be steep.  You must have excellent credit, be refinancing the amount of the mortgage you had when you bought the home (meaning you didnt take out any cash from the property), and have plebty of documentable income.  If you dont meet those steep criteria, dont fret.  While you may not qualify fnr that rate, you will still be offered an historical one.
PPS:  If you contacted me today, Im still digging out from under.  Ill be scanning and e-mailing promised documents on Friday.
PPPS:  I almost forgot; Happy New Year .

"If all the banks started lending tomorrow, it would be a fairly rosy year for commercial real estate," said Rich Moore, an analyst with RBC Capital Markets in Solon. "But I don't think all the banks are going to start lending tomorrow."
With that in mind, here are some projections for 2009:
Offices
National vacancy rates will tick up as tenants cut their space and developers finish buildings they started before the slump. In Cleveland, job losses at banks and manufacturing companies will hurt the office market, but law and accounting firms might grow amid a post-boom hangover of increased regulation and financial scrutiny.
Forget about most development until the credit markets open up. Some large tenants still want new space in downtown Cleveland, but financing construction is nearly impossible. Just look at the Flats East Bank project, where an office tower is on hold despite commitments by accounting firm Ernst Young and law firm Tucker Ellis West LLP.
"If there's ever a project that ought to go forward, it's that one," said David Browning, managing director of the CB Richard Ellis brokerage in Cleveland. "You've got significant tenants and a significant public-private partnership."
Major downtown proposals including renovations of the former Ameritrust complex at East Ninth Street and Euclid Avenue and the Richard E. Jacobs Group's slick office tower on Public Square probably will linger in limbo.
Retail
This year, the Coral Co. of University Heights pulled out of its retail-heavy Central Park project in Solon. And though developer Bob Stark recently dropped plans to remake the Warehouse District because his options to buy parking lots expired, it's highly unlikely that Stark's vision of national retail downtown would be possible in this economy.
Stores are the most visible part of this business, yet it's developers and property owners that bear watching in the coming year.
Many of the big guys, including Developers Diversified Realty and Forest City Enterprises Inc., have been scrambling for cash to pay down debt.
Developers Diversified, based in Beachwood, has pushed back projects, slashed its dividend and taken the risk of further diluting its battered stock by opening and using what is essentially a $200 million equity line of credit with BNY Mellon Capital Markets LLC. The real estate company recently failed to close property sales into a large joint venture.
Forest City, based in Cleveland, has laid off employees, dumped its dividend and dropped most development plans. But the company must somehow finish $2 billion in projects under construction even as tenants are skittish and lenders aren't particularly flexible.
"Ultimately, they all have to have debt," said Moore, who follows Developers Diversified and Forest City. "It's a capital-intensive industry, and if you take away the debt completely, then very few will survive."
Hotels
Farewell to flush times. Revenue and demand for rooms are falling, and hospitality might not recover until late 2009 or mid-2010, according to some reports. Developers are moving forward with hotel proposals in University Circle, which has been riding the growth of its anchor hospitals and institutions.
Other hotel plans, particularly downtown, hinge on the credit markets and whether Cleveland gets its medical mart and new convention center.
Industrial
National and local vacancies will rise, and new construction is going to fall off. Older buildings could get some attention as tenants once interested in new space explore cheaper options. In Greater Cleveland, this market largely will depend on the automotive industry, its suppliers and other associated businesses.
Apartments
People who lose their homes end up renting. So do people who can't get approved for a loan and those who would rather pay a monthly rent than a mortgage during uncertain times.
Apartments have been a bright spot during a rough year, but occupancy levels and owners' ability to raise rents are tied to employment. More job losses in 2009 could stymie the sector's recent growth spurt.
The good news is that there's been little new apartment construction in Greater Cleveland. And outside of Lakewood and Cleveland Heights, apartments haven't been hurt much by unsold condos and empty homes becoming rentals.
Investment
Property sales fell significantly in Cleveland this year and probably will slow further in 2009. Industry forecasts predict that next year's hot sellers will be distressed properties and unfinished developments.
Brokerage firm Grubb Ellis projects a 15 percent increase in national investment sales, driven largely by private, institutional and international investors going after defaults and derailed projects.
"Everyone I talk to on the real estate private-equity side is looking for distressed properties instead of new development," said Victor Faris, managing director of investment banking firm Western Reserve Partners LLC in Cleveland. "There's not much out there just yet, but we all know deals that are in trouble."
Faris estimates that investors have raised $80 billion to $90 billion during the last two years and are waiting to spend it on deals. Certainly the major brokerage firms and large real estate companies see potential in the rubble, as many have devoted teams or divisions to distressed debt and broken development agreements.
But judging from the final weeks of 2008, the commercial real estate industry might be more interested in a bailout than a buying spree. Major trade groups and some large developers are lobbying the government and the Federal Reserve for part of a $200 billion pool meant to encourage car loans, student loans and other consumer lending.
"The biggest issue facing commercial real estate today is where to find debt," said Moore, the RBC analyst. "It is not the economy. It is not de-levering. It is where they are going to find debt.

My favorite line in the above Dear John letter is, "To help you better manage your credit accounts, we have closed your account." Ha! Like that has anything to do with it. We all know how careful banks are being these days, so why don't they just write something honest like, "You credit score is fantastic and you appear to be a responsible user of credit, but we're worried that this recession may cause you to lose your job or close your business, which would make you a credit risk." Hey, Barclays, thanks much for your concern, but I don't need help managing my credit accounts! Not that kind of help anyway. It's like getting a Dear John letter from a college girlfriend, and she includes, "In order to give you more time to study and get good grades, I've decided to break up with you..."

Bottom line: the cancellation of this credit card account is just annoying and that's about it. I don't need the credit, and I don't take advantage of the rewards. The rewards program was decent, but not as good as the credit card I use for just about everything these days. Why settle for a $20 rewards check every once in a while -- that can only be used at BJ's Wholesale Club! -- when I can get a $20 or $50 (depending on my spending) statement credit every month with my favorite card?

The other day I cleared the cob webs from my oldest consumer credit card account, an account I haven't used in over 2 years, and used it to purchase five MP3's from Amazon @ $0.99 each. These were songs I was going to buy anyway, so I was cool with it. I was happy to find that the card was still working (whew!) This card has a very high credit limit, so losing it would be a very bad thing.

Why Amazon and not iTunes? I like the way Amazon allows me to quickly and easily preview each song before I buy, so I can get an idea of the sound quality, and I can also make sure I'm downloading the version I want. Preview functionality exists in iTunes, but I can't get it work for some reason. Must be a Mac-software-on-a-Windows-machine thing.

That's it for now. Thanks for reading and good luck to all in 2009 (I think this recession is going to be brutal. I sincerely hope I'm wrong.

Some people think that all debt is bad. But that is not the case. There is some debt that is actually good. Below are some instances where debt would be considered a good thing.
* Debt incurred to buy a home - Owning your own home has numerous benefits. But the reason that this is considered a good debt is because a home is an investment. It gains value instead of losing it, so youre putting yourself at an advantage by going into debt as long as you keep your payments current.
* Student loans - Getting a college education is a good investment as well. By earning a degree, you put yourself in a position to earn more money over your lifetime.
If you obtain a start up loan for a business venture this can be good debt. Again you are borrowing in order to give yourself earning potential. Of course you are always taking a chance when going into business for yourself, but often it is worth the risk and the necessary debt incurred.
There are lots of examples of bad debt. Here are a few:
Financing a car ? unlike a home your car depreciates rapidly. That means you are not investing your money with the potential for a greater return in the long run. The money you spend is gone.
* Credit card debt - Although credit cards can feasibly be used to purchase things that appreciate, they are in general considered bad debt because of the types of things that are usually bought with them. The overwhelming majority of credit card purchases are things that lose value.
Another bad debt is borrowing money for personal use such as to purchase higher priced items or maybe to fund a much needed vacation. These are at times necessary but will not earn you money in the long run. Since they are not an investment this is not good debt.
Good debt does not mean that it can not be harmful to us if we are not careful. Taking on good debt should be thought out carefully. The lender should not be the only one crunching the numbers to see if the debt is within our ability to pay. We have to take personal responsibility for counting the cost and being sure we will be able to make the monthly payments.
Also, bad debt is not always something to be avoided. To have a reasonable amount of what is considered bad debt is fine. We just want to keep it at a moderate level and not allow it to get out of control. Just like good debt we want to be sure we can handle the payments and only take on bad debt when necessary.

Start out by working with a real estate agent to find out where apartments for sale in Santa Barbara are located within the region. Finding Santa Barbara commercial real estate for sale is not difficult, but an agent can narrow down your search results to fall within your price range, location needs, amenities and more. An agent can also get you a comparative analysis report that gives you an indication of apartments that are up for sale. Prices are based on location as well; for instance, if you want to purchase commercial property near the State Street district, you may end up paying a little more for the property than you would in other areas.
Next, you should look at how you will handle your investment. Do you plan to invest in properties for the purpose of offering commercial leases? Or are you purchasing apartments for the purpose of offering residential leases? Either way, you need to work with someone who is knowledgeable with both the residential and commercial leasing process to be sure that you have all of the information you need - both financially and legally - to make it work.
If price is a consideration, you may consider looking for apartments or properties just outside of the city limits, in regions such as San Luis Obispo and The Mesa. Both places have great properties for less the cost you would pay within the State Street area or other communities within Santa Barbara.
If it is residential property you are considering, amenities for the apartments for sale in Santa Barbara should also be a consideration. Are you purchasing property with a pool? Will you offer additional laundry services washer and dryers in each apartment? Would you rather offer hardwood floors or carpet? All of these will affect the price of your apartment, so be sure to keep these things in mind when you are meeting with your agent.
Whether you are looking at apartments, or commercial property for sale in Santa Barbara, the financial aspects should be a consideration. Figure out the monthly mortgage payments you can afford to make on your investment. Be sure to set up your commercial leases to make the financial burden easier.
No matter which you decide to purchase - be it apartments or properties - real estate remains a sound financial investment. Just be sure to do your research and make informed decisions to ensure success.

From the Washington Post:
Hospitals, which employ 5 million people, are reporting that donations and investment returns are down, patient visits are flat and profitable diagnostic procedures and elective surgeries are declining as people with inadequate insurance delay care. But those patients are turning up later at ERs, seriously ill, making it tough for hospitals to lay off nurses and doctors.
All those problems are aggravating long-standing stresses: stingy reimbursements from commercial insurers, even-lower payments that generally dont cover costs for Medicare and Medicaid patients, and high labor and technology costs.

RALEIGH
The health plan that covers teachers and state employees across North Carolina has been bleeding so much money that it is set to run out early next year, and officials say that it needs an immediate $300 million cash infusion.
Directors of the State Health Plan have started operating under emergency measures, delaying $45 million in payments to key vendors until after the General Assembly has a chance to fix the problem when it reconvenes in January.
But that bandage will keep the plan operating only until March or April, officials said. Without the delayed payments, the health plan would likely run dry in January. The program insures more than 662,000 teachers, state employees, retirees and their dependents.
To pay its bills and shore up its finances, the program needs $300 million immediately. But perhaps more daunting, said Mona Moon, the health plan's chief financial officer, the system will need an additional $500 million to $550 million over the next two years to keep it in the black -- unless benefits are altered.
Moon said that the plan had $77.2 million at the end of last month, an improvement since the end of September partly related to the delayed payments. Also, she said, receipts have been slightly higher than anticipated while payments for claims were slightly lower. But it's not clear if those trends will continue.
In other words, Gov.-elect Bev Perdue and legislators could be forced to demand large payments from either taxpayers or health-plan members to cover a widening gap between revenues and expenditures.
The decision could not come at a worse time: Perdue is scouring the budget for more than $1 billion in savings to reconcile state spending with a shortfall that's growing amid a worsening economy.
Perdue's office said this week that she has been briefed on the health-plan deficit. Spokesman David Kochman said that Perdue "will be reaching out to legislative leaders, state employees, teachers and retirees to work together on stabilizing the plan." He wouldn't offer specifics.
In the past, Perdue has been unwilling to detail any specific plans or commit to any new demands for cash from either taxpayers or plan members, simply saying that the plan needs an overall update to reward preventive care and wellness.
However, those programs have been at the forefront of cuts. This past summer, plan administrators eliminated a wellness-incentives program that allowed members who are physically active or participate in wellness activities to earn points they can use toward prizes.
It's an even greater problem for Perdue, who was closely aligned with the state employees group that endorsed her during her campaign this year.
Dana Cope, the executive director of the State Employees Association of North Carolina, which advocates on behalf of state workers, contended that a larger portion of state dollars should go to the health plan. Cope noted that other states finance their health plans to a greater degree. But he said that nobody is sure what the final plan will look like.
"The state needs to realize that in order to retain and attract good people to public service, they're going to have to pay more into the state health plan," Cope said. "We want to come up with some good proposal that's going to benefit all the interested parties -- the plan participants, the taxpayers and the dependents that are now left out of the plan.

NEW YORKArea Community groups are seeking new volunteers to provide free tax assistance to some of our  taxpayers, people with disabilities, non-English speaking and other taxpayers who cannot afford professional tax preparation assistance.
 
During the tax-filing season, many Community groups and volunteers throughout Upstate New York partner with the Internal Revenue Service through the Volunteer Return Preparation Program.
 
This is a great opportunity to get training in income tax preparation and to help your community at the same time, said Dietra D. Grant, IRS Territory Manager.
 
The Volunteer Program provides those taxpayers eligible for the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) – an important refundable credit - a way to have their tax returns prepared free of charge.There are millions of dollars that do not come into the community each year in the form of EITC dollars because eligible individuals do not file a tax return or do not claim the credit. You could help bring some of this money to those in need, possibly $6,271. Grant said.
 
The volunteer groups offer free electronic tax filing. The IRS and its partners provide volunteers with free instruction and all the materials needed to prepare and electronically file basic income tax returns such as Forms 1040EZ, 1040A and simple 1040s. Training will be provided in January at convenient locations.
 
Individual volunteers are needed to help with all aspects of the Volunteer Program. In addition to preparing tax returns, volunteers are needed to organize sites, instruct classes, review returns prepared, greet customers, provide publicity and perform clerical duties.
 
Local civic and fraternal organizations, educational institutions, churches and social groups are invited to participate in the Volunteer Program by providing individual volunteers. Volunteers young and old are welcome. Tax assistance generally is provided at schools, churches, malls, libraries, community centers and other convenient neighborhood locations.
 
Last year, the Upstate New York volunteers prepared nearly 117,000 returns. We need your help to have an even greater impact this upcoming filing season, Grant said.
 
For more information, contact the IRS Volunteer Program Coordinator by phone at (518) 427-4246 or by e-mail at spec.albany@irs.

Page County, Virginia.
In the old days, when Walter Cronkite told us what was news, the press served as the branch of governance that kept the branches of government in check.    Then came 400 cable channels and 24 hour news.  Now, our nation at war or our nation in space cant compete with stories about Anna Nicole Smith, Natalee Holloway, and Britney Spears.  Marketing advisors tell Fox News that they will get more viewers if they select a market space and play to the fears and prejudices of that particular set of people.  Advertisers are companies so large that they all come together at the top.  So in the end, in addition to losing free market capitalism to an  oligarchy of four cigarette companies and a set of banks, we have also lost our free press.   And then we lost our manufacturing, our seeds are being endangered by Monsanto, and you dont even want to get me started on our health care system.
In Page County, Virginia, the suppression of free thinking and forcing the entrepreneurial spirit to hide underground began in 1934.   Before that, we had an entire colony of free thinkers and entrepreneurs here.    History books say the best thing that ever happened to moonshiners was Prohibition, and we had plenty of entrepreneurs in that market segment. 
Now, the press is free to print what it chooses, but what it chooses is determined by the attitude of its owner and advertisers.   If the owner of the publication has a in one way or the other, the news will have that bent, too.      If the publication has particular advertisers, it will not want to offend them.    This was less true in the days of full and open competition and free enterprise, than it is today, when there are so few companies because theyre all owned by an even bigger company.
Thats why we need the Internet.  Something has to offer a vehicle for people to debate public policy, and look at all sides.  All sides of an issue WILL be posted here.  If anyone out there wants to defend the Comprehensive Plan . . . lets hear it.
