Discount Tire donated one million dollars to the campaign against legalization in Arizona.
A food distribution company called Services Group of America donated $180,000 against legalization. This company has a division that sells food to private prisons. No wonder they want people to continue to go to jail for a fucking plant.
U-Haul donated $35,000 against legalization. If you move, use Two Men and a Truck or Penske instead.
The owner of Laz-Y-Boy furniture donated 10,000 against legalization. When you need furniture, shop at Rooms To Go or anywhere the hell else instead.
The family that founded Publix (also has a pharmacy, go figure) donated $800,000 against the medical marijuana initiative in Florida. Source.
If these assholes are going to spend their money in an attempt to keep marijuana illegal, keep arrests up, etc., then they do not deserve our business.
It's time for a good old fashioned boycott! Marijuana has nothing to do with tires or furniture. Until these people realize to mind their own business, do not give them your business.
Next week we win!
I have been using sketchup for years but I am going for a job as a building designer but I donβt have experience with revit but manual design. I need to show competency as training is included.
Alright so I work for a very small company and due to some circumstances my boss isnt using his accountant anymore and is paying us weekly by check and its up to us to handle our taxes. Ive never been good with understanding tax terms and Ive always just had enough withheld so that I dont have to pay at tax time.
I want to basically put the money from each check in a savings account so that I can just pay what I need when the time comes. How much should I be taking from my paychecks?
So i'm posting this here because I didn't have much luck over in personalfinance.
Here's the situation...
My mom, who currently lives abroad outside of Korea, is currently visiting Korea (her homeland) and is trying to sort a few financial hiccups that just popped up.
The reason for her visit to Korea is a bit complicated.
She told me that she owns an apartment in Seoul of which is currently being demolished and is going to be redeveloped into a completely new apartment complex (which is planned for completion in about 2-3 years from now). There was a tenant that was previously occupying my mom's apartment and this tenant basically gave my mom a loan (also known as a μ μΈκΈ? I'm not 100% of the terminology) of about USD $300,000 to pay off school debt for me and my siblings in exchange for him staying in the apartment without having to pay rent for a specified period of time.
In addition, she had taken a bank loan on top of the other loan for the aforementioned debt. The bank loan has been fully repaid, but she had made so many late payments, that she is now apparently on a bank blacklist and is unable to take out any more loans (even though she paid all of her dues, albeit a bit late). The other loan ($300k) has not yet been paid and it's what my mom currently owes.
I just found out about this (this whole time I had assumed that our parents had the funds for our education. My siblings and I are currently shocked at the fact that we could've taken student loans on our own and not be in this situation. Oh well...
The situation gets more complicated because of the fact that the apartment she owns has now been demolished and is planned for redevelopment, so she has no real collateral.
She's currently freaking out and was crying the entire time I spoke with her on the phone. I'm now terrified at the prospect of her being incarcerated in Korea (even though she currently has permanent residence overseas) and the prospect of her losing one of her most valued assets. My dad lost his home in the financial crisis of 2008, and now my mom is in risk of losing hers. This would be extremely devastating for our family.
I have about USD $100k in savings and about $80k in taxable investments. I was considering taking out a personal loan to help her out, but personal loans max out at $100k. Unfortunately, I do not own any property. I'd be willing to get a mortgage on a home, if possible, to help secure a bigger loan. However, I

It's almost funny how hypocritical the world is. One day ideas for free health care are insane, the next day they're figuring out a way to pay for people to get cured if they get the virus. One day people are complaining about the idea of UBI, the next day they're trying to find a way to pay people who can't work. They want us where we are, no better off and not too much worse off. If we were to have these things covered all the time we'd rise up as an economic class and have more of a political voice. If you know anyone who has an issue with either of these ideas or who's thrown the word socialist around like a weapon then please take this time to talk them. Utilizing government funds to help each other isn't a bad thing! We could fully pay for college for students in the US with reallocated military funds and still spend 300 million more per year than any other country on our military. That's just the tip of the iceberg, we're all in a position to make change. Start by telling the people around you the truth, we're their slaves right now.
I guess the question could be formed a little better but I hope you get what I am asking.
Every year, there are a couple dozen players that get snubbed/got bad advice and end up in the developmental/international leagues. Just give everyone (high school seniors, international players, college players) the option of getting drafted. If they are thought as one of the sixty best players - they get paid with a guaranteed contract. If teams don't think they'll help - those players can go back to college or sign for developmental money elsewhere.
Tested on a life proof case for a trip recently. This actually worked great for my gf and myself.

I'm moving from Alabama to Boulder,CO. I can probably save up about $1,000. Maybe. So, what do I do?
Extra Info: I have a Ford Taurus I don't have a job lined up, but I'm looking into it. I'm moving with 2 other current roommates. I just got a new job, and I am hoping to save up at least $3000 now. Everything I own can fit into my car. I'll bringing my dog, Benji. Here's a picture of me and him http://imgur.com/WOonC13
