My husband, my son, and my brother-in-law went hunting last weekend.  We have two quads and my BIL has his own quad.  They got home very late and all the quads were on my BIL's trailer and no one felt like unlaoding them, so my BIL took them home with him (they have two acres).  I got a call yesterday saying one of our quads was stolen.  I asked where did they have them?  My BIL took them off the trailer and put them right next to a small three-foot fence that butts up to a pretty major side street.  He stored his own in his garage.  In the past my BIL stored his quads on his back porch.  Apparently, the thieves lifted the small lighter one up and over the fence.  The other one was too heavy so they didn’t steal it.  We had insurance on the heavy one, but not the light one.  We paid $1,700 for it new about three months ago.  Right off before we got an apology or anything, my sister said they won't claim it on their homeowners.  They suggested we lie and say it was stolen here at our house and claim it on ours, but my husband and I do not feel comfortable at all with this and will not do it.

My question is what part in all of this does my BIL play for storing it where it could so easily be stolen?  I wouldn’t think anything about it if that is where they stored their own, but they don’t.  They won't use their homeowners so we are out $1,700.  Neither one of them apologized to me or anything until after I had spoken with my mother who then in turn called them and then they called me apologizing.  In other words, my mother told them to call and apologize. 

I can’t make them pay for it.  I know my husband is partially at fault for being too tired to unload them, but I’m just so frustrated regarding where my BIL stored them.  Yes, they have had their vehicle broken into on that side street and have had a trailer stolen from their driveway, so they should know better.  They also have two acres to store them and the other half of their yard is fenced with a five-foot fence.

I guess we are just out the money and the quad.  Unfortunately, we won't be able to replace it anytime soon.

Sorry to vent.

Thanks for your reply! I'm looking to sign on PT with a company on here. I'll just get my computer upgraded and get a foot pedal, head phones, and some books from my clinic job. I'll get started and see where I go. . . By the way, is there a glossary on here someplace where I can look some terms like "Big 4 experience" and "Acute care" or "ELS experience". I just don't hear those terms where I work.

Good Luck!

and it was supposedly a "reputable" one, recommended highly by just about everyone.  Searched online, you name it.  Thought I did my homework pretty good.  Well, they were a rip off.  Thankfully I kept logs of everyone I talked to about what and when, etc.  They screwed up several of my accounts, didn't pay them for almost 3 months (even though they received payment) and none of my interest rates were adjusted.  I contacted one of the lawers for the cc company that was handling the collection at that point since my company failed to do so and they said that this was a very common thing and that they really did not like to deal with companies like that, would rather deal directly with the person. 

Good luck to you though, sounds like you actually found one that does some kind of work. 

They cut production to get the prices up again. If we're not _____ by the oil nations, we're ____ by the American oil companies. G-R-E-E-D is the name of the game in the last few years.

Government tells us to cut our driving. Well, I hate to tell them but between a pickup and a car, we drove a total of  5,838 miles last year, and most of that mileage was 100 miles a day for DH to go to work. I get to the store once a month anymore, 2 mile round trip. The only thing I can cut down on is to walk to the store and back. Been there done that, but I'm no spring chicken and carrying 5 bags or more, well....you'd see a bag every 100 feet.

I don't see how it's any different that american companies are hiring illegals here versus american companies offshoring (which I detest) because the issue on either side is -- bottom line - the dollar -  and what American employers are willing to pay today...........and in either case, we are all losing our jobs to foreigners (whether they are legal, offshore, or illegal workers).

just my opinion.........

yourself first. That's what I did. We had a medical problem and we went from paying on time for years to 90 days behind in 3 months. We wound up living off the cards...which is an absolute no-no, but couldn't be helped, and wound up with $45,000 in CC debt.

 I called them all and they all have programs for hardship cases. They set up payments for you which are lower than what you would usually be paying and they lowered my interest rates again (in the good times, I was paying 9%) from 19% to  21% down to 9% again and one company even lowered my interest rate to 6%!

They automatically take the money from your account and you just have to remember to keep the money in there.  Payments are much lower since they lowered the interest rate and all the cards will be paid off in 4 years.

One company did close my account, but none of the others did. I haven't used a credit card for 2 years and most of the cards I had for 10 years.

Hope this helps and good luck. There is light at the end of the tunnel.

All of those companies you listed are non profits as described and accepted by the IRS.

I'm afraid you're going to be out of luck with your animal rescue lady, unless she reorganizes as a non profit, or makes you officially part of the company.

But, DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT.  Check with your tax person, or if you can't reach her, find another tax person.  Call H&R Block.  There may be some loopholes that you can use to get the deduction.

not too long ago.
