Many of us enjoy nothing better than a shopping trip when we’ve been paid. It’s a reward of sorts! A pat on the back for surviving the month slaving away under the employ of the boss from Hell! Every month or every week off to the High Street we go bargain hunting to the extreme! Some of us can’t afford to spend as much as we do but it doesn’t stop us! In fact, according to the article “Know the value of your designer wardrobe?” few of us are actually put off clothes shopping spending by lack of money and being within the clutches of every shopper’s evil assailant, the credit crunch!
If we are still spending then we are still acquiring so it would make absolute sense to add our new purchases to our home contents values. The reality is that unfortunately few of us actually add our latest designer accessories to our home contents values providing our insurance companies with inaccurate representations of our belongings. Our insurance companies have noticed and urge us to immediately open up those wardrobes of acquisitions new and old, designer and non-designer clothes and put them in the picture. Or we can put it off till next weekend’s assault on the shopping precincts!

Mike D! asked: I will probably need to replace my car soon, but I don’t know that I want a traditional car loan because it would require having more insurance, and thus be rather expensive for me. (It’d be about double for me, as I don’t have a spotless driving record). I was wondering if instead I could get a personal loan from the bank, say in the neighborhood of $3-5K and use that for a car thus saving me a bunch of money by not needing collision coverage if I could pay for the car in cash.
Now the questions … is this possible, or is there usually some stipulation that you can’t use a personal loan for a car? What sort of collateral do you usually need for a personal loan? If you have good credit, can you get one w/out collateral? Any info would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Ranger asked: I’ve heard several candidates claim that by spending too much we go bankrupt? how is a nation with our economic status exactly go bankrupt ?
I’ve never taken an economics course so this idea of a nation going bankrupt is very confusing to me.
Yeah but don’t we always spend more than we have, and just have the fed print the rest of the cash needed or borrow it from another nation ?

Oliver North Cocaine Smuggler asked: Well, reagan/bush sr quadrupled the debt from 1 to 4 trillion. Bush jr doubled the debt from 5.7 trillion to 10.7 trillion in 8 years.
Do you get sick of hearing these idiots complain about obama spending 787 billion and saying it will lead to massive hyperinflation?
It is pointless to reason with these people.
Good night.

advait0 asked: The U.S. Federal Government is in major extreme almost unsolvable debt, State governments sometimes go broke resulting in a shut down of services. So what happens when a state government goes bankrupt for a long period of time, say 6 months to a year? What if the Fed can’t give grants, and loans to keep state services open?

If you own and run a small enterprise, you make sure that everything is handled with the greatest consideration and offer the best service and consumer value. Of course, your business has so many obligations and culpability’s and though you try your hardest, a customer can still sue you for negligence.
The vast majority of industries in the US are established as a single proprietorship or with a partner. This kind of ownership leaves the proprietors with their private and business assets in jeopardy But by having business general liability insurance, you can be sure that your private life and company will be covered from any legal liabilities.
These policies offer security for your small company if a case was filed for injury to a person or property. These plans most often protect against lawyer costs and financial judgements. Business liability coverage can be obtained in different forms and based on the what type of business you have.
General liability insurance is a kind of liability coverage which has the predominant purpose of protecting your business from false claims in marketing, bodily injury to others and damages of a property. This coverage may be all your company needs, but you should a look at the requirements that you have.
Errors and omission insurance is best for companies that provide services for sale. This insures your company in case of misconduct, mistakes, negligence and not performing per the contract. This insurance is legally required for several fields including doctors.
Small companies who sell or manufacture goods need to be defended from a person who was hurt by the product. The need for product liability coverage depend on what industry you are in. If your business is selling supplies for a scrap book, then there is a lesser need than a business that builds wood stoves.
Protecting your company is not as affordable as you may think it is. The outcome from the tragic September 11 assault and problems in the stock market caused rates to go up with a reduction in coverage. If it is time to renew your currently plan, you may consider shopping around first for business insurance companies to determine if there are other options.
Success will follow if your business is covered from possible liabilities. Decide what coverages you need and shop around to get the best options.
