"&gt; So, are you against Trump? Yes or no?  Yes, I think you would categorize me as against him but I don't think I'm against him but against the things I see him doing things that I do not think will make life better for the average American.  &gt; ...according to VOX (known fake-news anti-Trump ""news"" site)...  Vox does spin things left but that doesn't make their reporting fiction.  They directly quoted President Trump after that meeting when he said, ""I'll oppose anything that makes it harder for smaller, younger companies to take the risk of bringing their product to a vibrantly competitive market. That includes price-fixing by the biggest dog in the market, Medicare, which is what's happening.""  I think the quote is very clear that President Trump changed his position on Medicare negotiating with drug companies.  Do you disagree?  &gt; ...the amendment by Collins and McCaskill was passed last month and is sitting Trump's desk to be signed soon.  I don't know why you bring this up.  Their amendment is about streamlining the FDA and has nothing to do with my issue with President Trump, that he first supported and then opposed Medicare using its market share to get Americans lower cost drugs."
Via twitter?  He'd have to have signed something and, based on the context of the discussion, it didn't appear they had any agreement whatsoever.  Yes, if a contract exists between them, NDA or otherwise, the circumstances can be altered by the contract, but that's not the context of OP.
It depends on the business. Some ask for ID and check against the signature (rare); some ask for ID but barely glance at it; some check just that it's signed (also rare); some ask for me to input my ZIP code on the card reader (KMart); and some don't do anything (most common). What they do doesn't seem connected to whether I put the card in the reader myself, or hand it to the cashier for them to scan. It does seem silly to check IDs, etc., as there are places such as gas stations where I never even see an employee, and can spend just as much there as at WalMart, KMart, or the grocery store, all places that tend to do more checking.
"It's not a scam because you lose money. It's a scam because the way to make money is by signing up other people to be part of your ""sales team"" or whatever they call it. You're not making money by selling products, you're making money by signing schmucks up who hopefully go on to sign up more schmucks."
"In this answer, I won't elaborate on the possibilities of fraud (or pure human error), because something can always go wrong. I will, however, explain why I think you should always keep receipts. When the (monthly or so) time comes to pay your credit card bill, your credit card company sends you a list of transactions. That list has two primary purposes, both of which I would consider equally important: While for the former item, a receipt is not necessary (though it certainly does not hurt showing the receipt along with the bill to provide further proof that the payment was indeed connected to that bill), the latter point does require you to store the receipts so you can check, item-by-item, whether each of the sums is correct (and matched with a receipt at all). So, unless you can actually memorize all the credit card transactions you did throughout the past one or two months, the receipts are the most convenient way of keeping that information until the bill arrives. Yes, your credit card company probably has some safeguards in place to reveal fraud, which might kick in in time (the criteria are mostly heuristical, it seems, with credit cards or legitimate transactions here getting blocked every now and then simply because some travelling of the actual owner was misinterpreted as theft). However, it is your money, it is your responsibility to discover any issues with the bill, just as you would check the monthly transaction list from your bank account line by line. Ultimately, that is why you sign the vendor copy of the receipt when buying something offline; if you discover an issue in your list of transactions, you have to notify your credit card company that you dispute one of the charges, and then the charging vendor has to show that they have your signature for the respective transaction. So, to summarize: Do keep your receipts, use them to check the list of transactions before paying your credit card bill. EDIT: The receipt often cannot be replaced with the bill from the vendor.
There is no central government signature database.  (at least not in the US, and at least not yet) For debit and credit card transactions, the merchant may check the signature on your reciept against the signature on back of the card.  This is intended to verify that you didn't steal the card. So, if you want to change the signature on the back of the card, all you need to do is get a new card and re-sign it.  Your card has an expiration date.  When that happens, you will get a new card to re-sign.  If your card expires soon, you can just wait. If you are impatient, you can call your bank and ask for a new card.  If they give you a lot of grief about issuing a new card (it is an unusual request), you can tell them you lost your card and need a new one.  In that case they will typically disable the old card and issue a new one with a new account number. Note that if you want to change how you sign your name, there are some other places you should also update: Also, keep in mind that people's signatures naturally drift over time.  This fact is generally understood and accepted by people who check signatures.
Cograts on eating better but Don't let that documentary scare you too much. All the studies they have done were prospectice cohort corolation based studies. Meaning they asked someone what that ate that day in a survey then 10 years later they look at their health. If they gained weight or got diabetes they then corolate that outcome with the food they ate 10 years ago. It's a terrible way to conduct experiments. This is why saturated fat was linked to heart disease for the past 30 years but now their realizing it's actually not a main cause at all and it's more due to the surgar and corn syrup in our diets. But sad part it the U.S.D.A makes money selling corn and sugar so they won't admit it even though the new research is clear. I'm an RD and exercise physiologist getting my PHD atm. Eating healthy is simple eat fruits and Vegis with the least amount of chemicals and eat grass fed meat and limit grain intake.
"No, you cannot do that. You can't just debit someone because ""he said so"". You'll need a document in writing, that would show the routing number, account number, the amount to withdraw and who is allowed to withdraw it. This document must be signed by the account owner and dated. Usually, these documents are called ""checks"". But legally speaking, in most countries you can write this on any piece of paper and it would be valid. But better use a standard check. Once you have a check - you can cash/deposit it in any bank, that part is true."
If his credit union participates in the national Co-Op, then he will be able to withdraw money at any participating credit union. He could just bring cash a check out in his name, just like he would at home.
Make sure I am reading this correctly.  You signed the car over to you BF, he took a loan against it and gave you the money?   If so, you sold him the car and any use you have had of it since was at his consent.  Outside of a written contract saying otherwise (and possibly even with one) it is now his car to do with as he pleases. It sucks that things are not working out in the manner you intended at the time, but that is the reality of the situation.
This will die at the supreme court. Every legal scholar knows you cannot sign away your rights.   The people responsible for this assault on our constitutional rights will no doubt find themselves in hell until they learn right from wrong.
The only way I could see you fighting this is by saying that portion of the contract is unenforceable.   Contracts are only allowed to cover reasonable things. You can't demand someones first born child (illegal) and can't demand they fly to the moon magically (improbability). So the gambit here would be saying that its impossible for people to control what their guests do after staying somewhere. Counter would be: you shold make your guests sign contracts.  Another argument  could be that since the hotel never mentioned any time limits, its overbearing to essentially say 'you can never say anything bad about us *for the rest of time*'.
"Yep, I would have this conversation repeatedly with customers at a previous job.   ""Sir / Ma'am, I understand your frustration as you run your business from your home. However, you explicitly signed up for the residential service even after being reminded that it does not have any SLA's or guaranteed time to contact / time to restore.""  It was very common that they would penny pinch on the connection and then raise holy hell when it inevitably went down. Then, they'd try to upgrade for a month and roll back, forcing us to begin signing them to contracts.   From a business standpoint, we'd have to have additional staff as well as higher skilled staff to deal with their issues. More staff as you need to have someone able to immediately / short time dispatch. Higher skilled to deal with issues like VPNs, static IPs, bridging, and small to medium business type issues, along with the increased communication and presentation for the business clientele. Those additional resources also come at higher than usual pay."
Most delivery drivers do that in my experience. They drop off the package and ring the doorbell to let you know it's there. No point in waiting if a signature isn't needed. I think it's fine.   I'm more annoyed by the ones that just leave the package and don't ring the bell.
I'd be interested in seeing a source regarding the transposing of signatures onto different documents.  That's blatant criminal fraud without even falling into a grey area.  About math, a study ran in the Economist showed that people who were bad at relatively basic math (understanding fractions, interest, percentages) were far more likely to have requested loans they could not afford.
Based on experience with friends that lost some money to one of these recently despite being warned: My friends joined some venture where they were getting 'paid' into an account and thought they were making lots of money. They signed their friends and family up (each with a hefty sign up fee) thinking it was a sure thing. Turns out the company was under investigation and the accounts were frozen. The money they put in was lost as well as these so called 'earnings'.  All of a sudden people realized they had never actually seen an actual physical penny the whole time.
Yeah there's no legitimate reason a co-worker (besides HR of course) would want your high school diploma. If he was trying to prove he has a job, HR could write a letter. I'm extremely cynical so I'm going to stick with it was for something malicious
It's NOT just a matter of making sure a title is really on file at the court house and has the proper stamp on it. It's all about, Does someone else have a legal claim to this property? Like, maybe three owners ago someone forged a signature on a deed, so the sale is fraudulent, and now the person who was defrauded or his heirs discover the issue and claim the property. Or maybe the previous owner failed to pay a contractor who did repairs on the house, and now he goes to court and gets a lien on the property. It's unlikely that you have the expertise to recognize a forged document. You almost surely have no way to recognize a forged signature of someone you never met on an otherwise valid-looking document. And you'd have to do a lot of research to find every contractor who ever worked on the house and insure none of them have a claim. Etc."
Depends on where you live. I live near RTP, and our tech sector was hit hard. IBM is the worst for job cuts. Even when business was booming in the area, it was hard to get an entry level position. By entry level, I mean basic networking A+, CCNA level stuff.  When everything went pear-shaped in 2008, my friends in the IT industry were dropping like flies. Most of them had 15 years or more in experience, were highly sophisticated, and current in their skillsets.  I know things are a little better in the Midwest, and towards Cali. The only place I know is in an economic boom by experience is ND. $1500 signing bonus at Sears. If you do skilled work, you get paid a premium.  Housing was two years out on a waiting list. Just ridiculous.
Yes. I have personally signed such contracts (fixed budget software development) and lost money every single time. And yes, it is quite possible for you to get paid under minimum wage if you take too long. Scope creep is the primary culprit for these kinds of contracts, so make sure you put together iron-clad explanations of what is and is not covered by the contract (and pad the asking price for good measure).
So I just graduated from uni with a finance degree, this is what I would advise.  1) Figure out what you want to do and have a clear plan behind. Finance is very big so there are a lot of options to choose from. There is IB , ER , AM , Operations , corporate finance at an MNC , etc. Figure what interests you and focus towards it.   2) When you have figured out what to do , find out what you need to know to get the interview and full time offer. The internet is your best friend here , there are sites like wall street oasis , reddit , merger &amp; inquisition , etc. All these have a wealth of information.   3) Your penultimate year internship is important , try to get the internship in the industry and role that you desire. So start networking , cold calling , cold emailing . Basically try to meet as many people you can who can help you reach your goal. This is pretty important.   4) Don't be a complete bookworm and focus only on your GPA. Join student socities that interest you. Participate in case competitions and stock pitches , this allows you to build a valuable skillset. Where in interviews you can always talk about it , and people will at least know that you have an interest or passion for finance.   5) And finally since you are at the last 1 and a half years of your college career, just try not to be jaded. A lot of people end up being like this cos they cant get that job they want or their GPA is crap. Try not to be them , always be fighting and hustling to get the best grades , best job you can. Cos this is prob the most crucial time in your college life
Oh my fucking god, what a stupid comment.   You mean the degree he paid for? That no one at Wharton knows anything about? No classmates? No Teachers? Wharton seems real proud of having him there, oh wait, no they don't. They even have an open letter that has 2000 fucking signatures on it from Faculty and Students.   Also, just because you have a degree in Economics doesn't make you automatically know everything about it. You have to put in the time and work and he clearly shows his understanding of it daily.   &gt;Trump2052   I don't need to comment further for a blinded and ignorant fan-boy.
I think that's a bad way to look at it. What if the price of that asset never fails below that value again? Do you just never buy?  I think a better way to operate is to do your due diligence, and if the asset you're looking at holds value for you at its current price, then jump in. Otherwise - look somewhere else.
If IQ correlates directly with intelligence regardless of race or culture then African Americans are on average a full standard deviation stupider than white people.  They specifically say that is not true, there is no genetic explanation. Therefore there's an issue with the test. How exactly is that hard to understand.  One of those two things has to be true. Blacks(and for that matter every other race) are stupider than whites or IQ doesn't measure intelligence.
You should read the provisions in your offer and any counteroffer that was signed before paying the earnest money, but generally if the appraisal comes in low, the price has to be adjusted. If you can't get a mortgage (because the appraisal is too low) the next guy usually can't either. Unfortunately without more information (the documents that were signed and the locale, to know which laws might be applicable) I can't tell you with certainty that you'll get your earnest money back.
Your purpose is yours to create. #8. Gold doesn't make you a player better. I had a mentor in the World of Warcraft. I deliberately sought him out because I wanted to learn how to play the game like him. For the three years we played together, he was poor. Constantly asking other people to borrow gold. He was also one of the most talented gamers I'd ever played with. When I would ask him why he wouldn't spend more time farming gold, he'd say, ""Gold isn't going to make me a better player. I'd rather practice."" That was my first introduction to the idea that money, in itself, doesn't make you a better player (or person). #9. Some people are raiders. Some are PvPers. And some are explorers. In the World of Warcraft, you can do a lot of different things. You can round up 40 people to go defeat a raid boss. You can form a small team and compete 3v3. Or you can travel around the world on your Kodo mount and explore. The game is yours to play, however you wish to play it--just like life. Which means you can't compare your experience and your ""achievements"" to someone else who prefers to spend their time differently. They aren't 1:1. #10. Friendships are made during the pursuit of a goal. Some of the people I played World of Warcraft with as a teenager became my closest friends--friends I still talk to today (just last week I had dinner with my guild leader from a decade ago). Those friendships are the result of working together toward a common goal, and I see the same thing unfolding as I build my first company. How often my co-founder and I bounce strategies and ideas in a day is eerily reminiscent of my climb to Gladiator with my 2v2 partner. The hires we make are our new guild members. Our Slack channel is our guild chat. Our weekly conference calls are our raids, and our competitors are all the other guilds who are trying to defeat the same bosses we are."
Yes. So? Are you saying that OP was just unlucky because he didn't realize that forex wasn't covered under SIPC? I would agree with that, but then, had he read the terms and conditions and considerable paperwork that he was required to sign, he would've known.
The advice above is generally good, but the one catch I haven't seen addressed is which specific laws apply. You said that you are in Arkansas, but the dealer is in Texas. This means that the laws of at least two different states are in play, possibly three if the contract contains a clause stating that disputes will be handled in a certain jurisdiction, and you are going to have to do some research to figure out what actually applies. One thing that may significantly impact this issue is whether you were in TX or AR when you signed the contracts. If you borrowed the money in TX, and the lender is in TX, then it is almost certain that the laws of Texas will govern. However, if you were living in AR at the time you acquired the loan, particularly if you were in AR when you signed the papers, you have a decent case for claiming that the laws of Arkansas govern. I don't know enough about either state to know if one is more favorable to the consumer than the other, but it is a question you really want to have answered. That said, I would be shocked if any state did not have provisions requiring the lender to provide a copy of the terms and a detailed statement of the account and transaction history upon request. Spend some time on the web site of the Texas attorney general and/or legislator (because that is where the lender is, they are more likely to respect Texas law) to see if you can track down any specific laws or codes that you can reference. You might also look into the federal consumer protection laws, though I can't think of one off hand that would apply in the scenario you have described. Then work on putting together a letter asking them to provide a copy of the contract and a full history of the account. As others noted, make sure you send it certified/return receipt, or better yet use a private carrier such as fedex, and check the box about requiring a signature. Above all you need to get the dialog transferred to a written form. I can not stress this point enough. Everything you tell them or ask for from here out needs to be done in a written format. If they call you about anything, tell them you want to see their issue/offer in writing before you will consider it.
&gt;Man is a social animal.  He generally is; but he doesn't *have* to be.  Not in anything like way that the aforementioned bees are.  &gt;The survival of our species has been only made possible by our acceptance of our co-dependency.   Au contraire. The social co-dependency (within limits) has served to both allow the species to thrive, AND at the same time, has often severely limited and constrained us.  The vast majority of human history has essentially been one of cyclical feudal-fascistic/crony-capitalistic -- monarchical governments in collusion with an elite of rentier-landowners who together control commerce -- growth during the early post anarchy stages, and then followed by later implosion as the system ossifies (with socialistic aspects implemented in an attempt to maintain power in the face of a growing mob).
Given that a lot of rental car places tend to be co-located these days, I've just started making multiple reservations. There's generally no penalty for not picking up the car and if one flakes out, you still have a reservation elsewhere.
"&gt;The banks have a gain because they are the money creators, they don't see a gain from the Cantillion Effect because they are lending money and not buying goods (unless we're talking about investment banking, which we are not).  They're buying debt-obligations (loans) from the people you claim are ""gaining"" from this scheme.  Thankfully your viewpoint is in the minority - more and more people now are well aware of the fundamentally unfair nature of this credit-money system."

His credit is likely impacted already for the fact it's in collection. My real concern is that he be 100% certain the debt collector actually has ownership of the debt. At first glance this sounds like it may be a scam, but if the debt was written off, it may have been sold for pennies on the dollar. So to the collector 20% of face value is a tidy profit.
