Question #4:
What do I need to buy a house?
I am looking to buy my first house. The one I am looking at is $117,500. I have poor credit but my dad said he would co-sign or put it in his name to help me. How much money should I have saved before I do anything? Is there a website anywhere that explains it all? Also, if I do finance the house in my name, am I going to not able to take out any other finances for a while? (Furniture). How much money and what do I need to do?Of course I have a job. I actually have a really good job. But when I was younger I got into some trouble with my first credit cards and that caused my bad credit. I was young and dumb but have been working very hard to pay them off and most of them are already paid off except one.
Question #5:
Two weeks till move in day..We still have Mbath and kitchen and big furniture..?
All of our other stuff is packed in boxes in the garage ..i am wondering now if we should take apart beds, with mattress on floor. Move out night stands coffe table stands.I started early..and as my husband said you are gonna have it all done waaaayyy before,..which is what i wanted. But now I am kinda stuck. Its two weeks from this friday, Dec 5th movein day. Should i start putting clothes in suit cases and live out of those?? We only have one weekend to have truck and move all from on house to the other house. So am i jumping the gun on the rest of this stuff or should i keep on going with thte packing??Question #6:
Are people going to move back into the urban areas?
Do people who live in the suburbs still think it's worth the extra price? I mean it's nicer to have a big house and more space, but you have to commute further back and forth from work, and drive to get just about anywhere. Your house and lawn is bigger, but you have a bigger heating, air conditioning, and water bill because of this. You have to buy more furniture, and probably have at least one bedroom or bathroom that is rarely even used. Are many of you guys gonna move back closer to the inner city to save money, especially when jobs are more scarce? Or is all the crime, and poor schools in the bigger cities still a big enough deterrent?Question #7:

James: He is a 20 something male who is a toys specialist at a department store and he always puts in an effort to help customers, gets his work done when needed and always makes sure the aisles looks neat and straightened, plus he is very friendly and outgoing towards the customers and some of the long time customers feel that the store won't be the same without him and his co-workers like working with him cause he is a great guy who is fun to work with and he always will back up his fellow co-workers when needed, plus he lives in an apartment complex with his brother and his only means of transportation is a bicycle or taking the bus.
Also which person would you rather be between Holly or James?
Question #10:
What do you think of this business idea?
We live in a very remote area of australia, there are 7000 people here and a huge mine. There is only a small amount of business in the town and there are no proper shops really, just a supermarket and some specialty stores. Anyway BOTH of the furniture stores in town are closing down due to increased rent ($1000 per day!!) so I was annoyed, wondering how the heck people here are going to buy furniture/bedding/pet products when I thought that maybe people would respond well to ordering furniture from a catalogue? Because the place we live is so isolated and remote to deliver anything is VERY expensive, but maybe not so expensive if we had a truck bring things up once a month and the cost was shared between all the people who were ordering the furniture? What do you think? Obviously the idea needs a lot of work, but do you think people would buy furniture from a catalogue (given that they have no alternative)?Wanted to start of very specific at first so as not to overcomplicate things for myself lol

Question #16:
Can someone please tell me the name of this movie...?
Ok, I saw this movie when i was quite little, probably 1996 or 1997, but i saw it on TV so I don't know what year it was made.This is what i remember: There is a father of triplet girls who have blonde hair, he runs a hotel or something. There is some bad guy who wants to get hold of this property and "pave over it". The triplets must be at least 16 i think,
In one scene someone comes to the door and one of the triplets answers, then goes to fetch the person the man at the door is looking for. while the man waits, another of the triplets comes and asks him "can i help you?", perplexed, the man tells her who he is looking for and that triplet goes off to fetch the person, then the third triplet comes to the door and it happens again. I don'tt remember what happens next.
Also, the triplets find the plans that the bad guy has for the property and then they realize that he wants to bulldoze the building.
And, (I dont know if this helps) but there is also a lady in the movie and she is always ordering people to rearrange the furniture for her.
This is all i remember, and ive been racking my brain for months trying to remember this movie.
