Amway now makes a sugar-coated, lightly salted, fried cheese-dust curd on a stick. I highly recommmend them. marie gets one free with her first order of underwear soap.

Me too. Maybe we are working on the same document?

Kill Canada.

Then you need Amway laundry soap.

My best job has been selling Amway. Who needs some toilet bowl cleaner? (I am also working in my underwear)

You are the voice of reason this morning. Where the hell were you yesterday when I needed you?

Violence is the weapon of the weak --A. Hennesay

Wow. I used to think *I* was going to be an expert on everything. But that was an idea that flopped.

Hey, did you take yourself out for a beer yesterday?

Is the PM machine still not working? I coudn't even get my quarter back out of the computer...

Yes, they are called crackdealers

It's not fraud if the parents are acting as the "guardian" of the account. We have two accounts set up for our boy Nicholas, and he turned 3 years old last Sunday. We are the "responsible party" for any "debt" that he may incur. Sobo is right. Since a minor cannot legally sign a contract, they could simply incur the debt and then refuse to pay it, so a guardian is required for this. Plus, I had to have a savings account, which I opened with lawn mowing money and other funds held in trust. Bad joke--I was fucking with you. My parents did the same thing for me when I was 14 or 15. I think they were just in a hurry to get me out of the house.

Actually, Sobo is right. And you parents essentially committed fraud.

I get this magazine every month. I have stopped reading it b/c it is mostly full of blow-smoke-up-yer-ass happy horseshit. Not to say you didn't point out a good article--I haven't looked at it. PS I also get the WSJ, Business Week, the Puget Sound Business Journal, and other bus mags that I do think are good--so I am not trying to be a big old sourpuss here.

Wait a minute...why would does this policy suck? Think about it from your business owner point of view (we did start this thread with that view, right?): would YOU want to give money to someone who changed jobs/residences a whole bunch? And don't tell me, sure, if they paid all their debt; because 1. those traits usually do not co-occur, and 2. when they do, the money is sometimes ill-gotten gains (like Daddy has been paying the bills up til now).

That's where those pink rabbit adds keep coming from.

Tears are squeezing out of my eyes. That is funny. Mean, but funny.

Its because you have poor credit.

I'm going to lunch now. I had to teach a class on credit responsibility...

I wish I were there right now. The place is a dive, and a good one at that.

Why are you still here?

I have said exactly this a million + times. Makes me want to volunteer and teach a class. I don't know if kids would be interested though. Economics was one of my very favorite classes in high school (I was lucky and went to a great hs with an intense focus on challenging students). Even so, personal finances were not taught as a part of the curriculum.
