The finance company that we got my ring with sold our account to another finance company that we are having a ton of trouble with. They’re extremely unprofessional and I don’t feel like dealing with them any longer. Is it even legal for them to sell out account to someone else?

Anthony asked:


Say I got a bank to finance my business, the product which I sold ended up being a failure on the market and now the banks don’t want to finance my business. What could I do to convince them to help me finance for my new product?

How do I finance a house down payment while I am still making payments on the home I am trying to sell?

Friday, August 12th, 2011

2bright4u@sbcglobal.net asked:


The buyer for our home just backed out and we have to close next Friday on the house we had made an offer on. We don’t have enough cash on hand without our equity in this house to make the down payment. Is there anyway we can get a loan to make the down payment so we can move ahead with the purchase. I would rather not get a bridge or finance 100%.

What exactly is a finance charge, and under what circumstances will I need to pay one?

Wednesday, August 3rd, 2011

X-Malleus asked:


Pretty much exactly what the main question says. I have no idea what a “finance charge” is. For instance, would I be charged a finance charge if I charged a purchase, and then paid the balance immediately?

Any additional information that could be given would be great, as I’m considering getting my first credit card, and want to know everything I can so that I don’t get myself into trouble.

Finance F asked:


The “Rule of 72” suggests that an amount will double in 12 years at a 6 percent compound annual rate or double in 6 years at a 12 percent annual rate. Is this a useful rule, and is it an accurate one?

What is the difference between a career in Finance and a career in Accounting?

Friday, July 15th, 2011

g-money asked:


I am thinking about going back to school to get a BS in Business Administration.

I would like to know what the difference is in careers in Finance and Accounting. Has anyone had a career in either field? What I want to know is:

What did you think of your career?

What did you do all day in Finance or Accounting?

Did you find it exciting or really boring?

For a career as a Financial Planner or Financial Advisor, do you work off of commision only?

Any information would be very helpful. Thanks.

How can i start a finance blog/website if big companies already have great content?

Wednesday, July 13th, 2011

Anthony asked:


I am majoring in Business Administration with a concentration in finance and economics. I am an incoming college freshman, but i really like the stock market, and reading about what happens day-to-day about the economy. I like trading stocks, although that has been put on hold because i need money for college.

Should i give up? Is it even feasible to set up a blog/website on a topic like this?

Ali R asked:


I want to work in investment banking/ finance after college, and was wondering if Computer Science would be a good quantitative major for an undergraduate degree.

Ultimately, I want to get an MBA right after or at least a Masters of Finance degree before I start working.

How do we offer finance to our customers?

Wednesday, July 6th, 2011

Angelina Ballerina asked:


We are a young business designing and building garden rooms. We lose customers who love our buildings because we don’t provide finance. I’ve googled, but companies offering us finance come up. Is there anyone out there who had done this recently for their business, or are you a company which provides this service.
Many thanks for helpful replies.
