I'm not sure of the type of hedging you can do with the CNY, because their money is so tightly controlled by the government. Maybe theres options contracts you can buy for the raw materials/similar currency? One of my vendors just got shafted by the currency depreciation.... On average he has...

For some reason, I don't see interest rate drops as helpful to the economy. Its true, the fed is helping to revitalize the housing market and prevent a crash, but imo, whats done has already been done, and the drops are going to delay the inevitable. Perhaps I'm narrow minded or ignorant, but i...

Hoping for one or the other isn't going to work esp. if both end up accepting!! See which one you like better, and then lowball on the other... so you don't end up having 2 homes accepted. You're basically hoping for acceptance on the first one, and fishing for a counter on the second. If...

My gf owns an independent furniture store with a 20ksqft showroom and competes directly with stores like wickes, levitz, lazboy, etc. They have all of the name brands like broyhill, stanley, ashley, etc. The store isn't in OC but is well worth the drive if you are planning a larger purchase...

<p>CC Companies lose money to the 2% of the population who use the rewards and incentives to their advantage, but make it back on the 98% who pay interest :)</p> <p>If your credit is strong enough, you can probably get 50-100k of interest free money BT'ing to no interest cards. But one slip...

Basically the lawyers will find out everything, including your coverage, your property, your companies, etc and conveniently find an amount to sue you for. I think you can put the home in some sort of trust to protect it? There are plenty of asset protection books/services out there. If you...

Yea, BofA is pretty horrible with that check holding deal. I'm looking to get rid of BofA as well. I have a high cash turnover acct and everytime they put a hold, I have to ask my friend who works at corporate to remove the hold. But thats really not a long term solution. You can find smaller...

<p>I dont have a savings account and my checking account has about $500. I give myself a limit to spend each month, and thats what I pay myself. The rest of the money stays within the business generating more money. When the time comes, I'll take a draw, business loan, LOC, or my vendors to pay...

<p>Not sure if the 587k included or excluded the incentive, but I heard the location of that home is not in a good area. Some of these homes share a wall with the tustin business complex. They mentioned that future phases would be in better areas, but they dont have any timeline for future...

Winex, Care to share your knowledge?? Its not that I cannot afford it, its that i'm trying to see if the expense is worth my move into Irvine. I spoke with 2 more business dept reps and they are not very helpful. Basically I am factoring the city fee into my rent so I know the true...

I'm looking to relocate my business, and I found some good commercial deals in Irvine, but I dont know what the business tax is. In Anahiem it is $1000 for $6 million of sales, in Santa Ana it is $1500 for $3 million. I heard Irvine is rediculously expensive, and although I live in Irvine, I...

<p>I hear that in some neighborhoods you can't even wash your own car on the driveway. Fortunately I have a $29.95/mo unlimited hand car wash that I go to.</p> <p>Irvine123, you would think that with land being so cheap and available in the 60's, that they can make the streets 2ft wider...
