    Perpetual, I spent 100K to go to school and cannot earn income.

    If you default on a student loan, how does the collection agency garnish your wage if you are self-employed? Can they seize your assets, like your home, car, bank account, and/or brokerage account?

    Perpetual, I spent 100K to go to school and cannot earn income.

    http://finance.yahoo.com/q/is?s=SLM+Income+Statement&annual I'm curious why Sallie Mae lost money in 2007 and 2008 if the government pays them back, with interest, loans that are in default?

    Proprty Taxes

    That is horrible to lose a $300k home or any home, even worse if it is paid off, and then completely lose it just because you can't pay $3k in taxes. It is a nice profit for the investor though. How long do you have to pay the investor the tax amount plus interest before he/she can foreclose...

    Proprty Taxes

    I have some questions regarding property taxes. If you don't pay them... 1) How long do you have before the town repossesses your home? 2) Once they sell your home, do you get paid the excess of the sales price over the tax amount owed? For example, if they sell your house for $300k, and...

    Is owning a home mostly a bad thing?

    Nothing beats owning a home. I couldn't stand living in an apartment years ago, piled on top of one another. The freedom that a home provides is priceless. You can blast the music if you want, you can enjoy your yard, have your own pool, park in your own driveway, and have so much more space...

    Cut everyone's pay 10% to create new jobs?....won't work.

    If you reduce pay, you can offer customers lower prices on your goods and services, thereby increasing demand.

    Cut everyone's pay 10% to create new jobs?....won't work.

    If we throw out the illegals, who work for low wages, prices will go up for a lot of goods and services. We don't need to hire 300,000 people to guard the border; we can just build a huge wall with barbed wire across the whole border. If we reduce unemployment back down to 6 months...

    US matches Indian call centre costs

    I don't how people live on $9 per hour here in the U.S., unless you have 2 or 3 roommates. If you are looking to have a stay at home wife and you have children, how in the world do you live on $1,560 per month?

    US matches Indian call centre costs

    If you are looking for a sales rep to make outbound sales calls, they will require more than minimum wage here in the U.S., at least $40k per year, plus commissions, plus medical insurance, which could cost another $10k per year for a single person if you pay for the full cost of it and offer a...

    Man Receiving Unemployment Benefits Refuses Over A Dozen Job Offers

    That is a great idea. At least that way, the government would get something for its money, instead of people just sitting at home watching TV.

    Man Receiving Unemployment Benefits Refuses Over A Dozen Job Offers

    Free money for everyone forever. Pretty soon almost every job will be done by a robot, and us humans will be able to just sit in the sun, travel the world, drink, eat, and be merry.

    Goldman Sacks "education" scam

    I agree. To add, I don't think there should be such a thing as loans for college. College should be paid with cash, paid either annually, semi-annually, or monthly. That would cause tuitions to come down and more people would go to college, and in the end, it would benefit the entire country...
