Hi there BFC! Here are the rules. I think we've been pretty good at self-policing and I'd like to keep it that way, but if you have any ideas post them here and they will be weighed with the utmost consideration and care. NEW RULES
OLD RULES Megathread Links

Just wondering, what's the status on the "all encompassing personal finance advice" thread. You know, where we always say pay your debts ranked by interest, max out your 401k, etc.

Can we get some kind of ruling about not making posts like the following (from Zaurg's thread):quote:Zaurg, send your child to daycare so someone with more responsibility can handle her for most of her day rather than you. Don't be selfish. quote:Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if zaurg's "wife" and "child" are actually some poor family from across the street that keeps locked in the cellar while he prances around wearing the skin of the husband and father as a hat. At least that would put his emotional and intellectual deficiencies into some kind of context. Does it put the lotion on its skin, zaurg? quote:It's too bad having brain-dead parents isn't cause for taking away someone's kid. You know his kids are going to be morons too. It's a vicious cycle. I don't know if Zaurg closed his thread or if a mod did after threatening to back on the 11th, but in my opinion attacking somebody's failure as a parent because they're not good with their money is crossing a line. I don't care if it's true, or if statistically it's likely to be the case, this is a forum for finances and financial advice. I understand that people are trying to get him to 'see the light' but attacking his wife or child and saying terrible things about his family just isn't proper.

The second one you posted got that poster probation already. If you have a problem with a post, that's what the report button is for. Use it or email/PM me. I'll open the thread back up.

Possibly a dumb question, but may I create a career advice thread about making a living as a songwriter/band? I noticed that there seems to be no thread containing this information. Edit: Kool ! I am working on it now. Should be up within a day or two. SystemAdminLios fucked around with this message at 01:17 on Feb 16, 2011 |

I don't know how much interest there is in opening the thread, but I have a whole lot of experience working with tax in Canada as a business student (Personal and Corporate). PM me if you need some help -- I'll give it my best!

I have a question about my bank, but I'm not sure if this board would be the best to ask it. If it's not, could someone please point me towards the right board? I had about $100 in late fees owed to a loan through Citizen's Bank. This is the same bank I have my checking account through. Yesterday, the bank withdrew the $100 in late fees from my account and paid it towards the loan without notifying me or asking for my permission. I only found out today when I went to go purchase some stuff for dinner, and my card was declined. Now, I have no other money. The loan is maxed out, so i cannot withdraw anything from it. That $100 was supposed to last me for another week and a half until my next pay day. I am now penniless and hungry to boot. Is there anything at all I can do to get my $100 back? My current plan of action is to go into the bank tomorrow and close everything I have with them down and take my money elsewhere, because this isn't the first time that Citizen's Bank has screwed me over in one way or another.

What thread would I post in to ask about temp agencies? I'm specifically looking for advice on reliable ones in New York City, but I doubt it's worth its own thread.

Everybody gets one thread in BFC, go ahead and make it! I would also go and ask in the NYC thread in T&T since they might have a better idea of NYC-specific stuff.

Doing a quick look at the first couple of pages, I don't see a real estate megathread aside from the house buying thread. Is there also room for a investment property / rental / house flipping megathread?

I was about to ask if we could get a new Legitimate Online Moneymaking thread, but it turns out the link in the OP is just old. Would you mind updating it to http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3476455? That thread is a great resource.
