Future of independent debt advice: Private Members’ Debate 8th Feb 2011
If you want to comment on this video, please go to mylegal.org.uk. If you are a legal aid professional, to http The following summary is from moneysavingexpert.com: Opposition MPs have voiced their rage at government cuts that would see many consumers struggle to get free debt advice. Almost 500 advisers will be made redundant nationwide as, from April, the £25 million-a-year Financial Inclusion Funding (FIF) given to free debt advice services, such as the Citizens Advice Bureau (CAB), will cease. Labour MP Yvonne Fovargue, who secured [the Commons debate on 8th February 2011], questioned where the Government expected people to go for advice if so many centres close (see the Debt Problems guide and Debt adviser to go MSE News story). Fellow Labour member Jenny Chapman said she fears many will be forced into the hands of fee-charging, cowboy debt firms. Their sentiments were echoed by many backbench MPs. Free debt services directly assist over 100000 people per year to help resolve debt problems. In some areas, such as Birmingham, those in dire need will no longer be able to walk into a CAB centre to get help.

Warren Buffet probably the smartest and greatest investor in American History. Worth 58 Billion dollars, Warren Buffet is almost never wrong when it comes to economics, your telling me Warren Buffet is some how a socialist because he supports Obama tax policy?

I am junior at a University torn between two programs – HR/Education and Business (BBA) – I need advice, fast?
I need advice on what I should pursue in college, I am a junior and am torn between education and business. Which route should I take?
This question has been tormenting me for about a month now, and I thought I’d have it answered by now. I am very torn in between these two programs: 1. Human Resources and Society with certification to teach economics, geography, history, political science, and english at a secondary level. 2. A Bachelors in Business Administration with specialization in Supply Chain Management and Marketing.
Both programs are highly recognized, secondary education coming in first in the nation (U.S.), and the BBA being decent enough (Supply Chain is ranked second in the U.S.).
I can see myself being happy with future positions in either category, which is why I’m having such a tough time deciding. In addition, I am a junior and will need an additional 21 credits passed what I need to graduate with the BBA if I choose the education route, which translates to about ,000. I do have money to pay off some college, though I am expecting moderate debt and that adds onto it.
As far as the positions go, I love to teach and would be a great teacher. Especially those subjects I listed. Also, I would be giving a piece of me to the kids I teach which would be very fulfilling. I think it would be a fun job. I also enjoy the idea of having a lot of flexibility in the summer, as well as with weekends and holidays off. On the other hand, I have a knack for making deals and wouldn’t mind a higher income (still, freed up time is most important to me). However, I see many studies on people with high hopes who get stuck in corporate hell and hate their jobs (some stats say 84% of Americans hate their jobs!? But I didn’t see anything in that regarding educators). I really don’t want that to happen to me. Ideally, with a BBA, I would like to be in control of most marketing and supply coordination. Even more ideally, I’d like to use this in the film industry. But those are highly competitive fields and I’ve been reading a lot of studies on how Americans end up in corporations to hate their corporate jobs. Honestly, it kind of seems like those who don’t want to do pre-med or pre-law choose business, and I don’t want to get sucked into like that.
Would I be able to enter the business realm with this HR and society degree that enables me to teach if I find that teaching isn’t the right thing (I have already taken entry business classes to give me the business emphasis for this program)? Is the extra cost worth it (I also have to dedicate another year to student teaching, which also counts for my masters)? If I do pursue the BBA, will the boring class work be worth it (I’ve heard from many graduates that you learn business in the real world, not through an institution, but wouldn’t I need the degree to get my foot in the door because it’s highly specialized)? If I do business, should I view work as something you’re supposed to dislike, with the purpose of making a buck?
All advice/answers are appreciated, but I’d prefer people whom have already graduated in either area as well as an unbiased perspective to answer this question. I am so torn, please help.
Thank You Very Much All – Better Late Than Never
