Hope I can spawn some answers from some "Finance Savy" individuals. My question is, where would be a good place to invest around 1 or 2 hundred a week out of my paycheck and see some quick growth?

coslenchip P.S. If you are in a different group than you want to be, you can move. It simply takes more education. Take some books about finance out of your local library. Personally, I am a big fan of Robert Kiyosaki. David Boch, and Ric Edelman are also great...

coslenchip It sounds to me that you and your husband disagree on how much your child should value money. You are of the opinion that money is practically irrelevant, i.e. it should not be sought after. Your husband seems to be closer to the idea that money should be...

coslenchip I agree with you completely with what the government should be doing, in general. Secondly, though, you brought up taxing as opposed to banning. Taxes are a sticky subject. Like it or not, the government needs to collect some taxes to operate. So, it is my...

coslenchip More acurately, the tax savings are (or at least should be) given back to the people in the form of NOT PAYING in the first place. In other words, our taxes would be able to be lower.

coslenchip As for impeaching Bush, impeachment is reserved specifically for "treason, bribery, and other high crimes and misdemeanors." As such, he can only be impeached if something he did was treasonous. Since I am assuming you are refering to his actions regarding...
