“what are my chances of landing a job making great money with a company with a polysci degree and a law degree

I have been involved with sales, and i have managed and lead other salesman with frito-lay corp for 8 years. I have trained, and i have been one of the top salesman and leaders for several years. However, i have quit that job to pursue my education. I will soon have a political science degree, and then a law degree. My question is, with my experience in sales, and business atmosphere, what are my chances in landing a great paying job with this education? What jobs or positions are offered with this education other than being an attorney? I would appreciate any one with some good answers to this question. Thank you!

Yahoo! Listen up. Beta sucks.?

This isn’t a question. Its the only way I can find to give feedback on this beta which in itself speaks for what’s wrong.
(1) It’s slower than original. Slower is not an improvement!
(2) Have to go through a non-customizable “Home” page. If it’s not customizable, it’s not a home page.
(3) It can’t handle a wide-screen monitor. It gives me a stupid (read “bogus”) warning about screen resolution that I have to click through each time (before I have to click through the equally stupid (read “annoying”) Home page tab).
(4) The “look and feel” are more contemporary for sure (Click & drag? How radical!) But most of the other “new” features I don’t even want on my web mail.

Sometimes simpler and austere are better. Take a lesson from gmail. If my addresses weren’t locked in from 8 years plus of yahoo mail, I would have dumped it. The company has lost its free-spirited early internet mentality (and sold out to China’s facist government!)

1 year after an eviction…?

I have the means to pay back what I owe my landlord…around $3000. I was one of two people on the lease…and my former roommate passed away since then, so I guess I am fully responsible now. My question is, I am going to be applying to rent a house/apartment in about 4 months, and I cannot have this eviction as is, what are the chances my former landlord (an apt. community) will work with me to get their money and possibly give me some good standing to work with as far as rental history? How does this work? It is not on my credit report, so I guess its up to the landlord to relay this info to my future landlords, unless they do a check for an eviction? Any help on this broad topic is greatly appreciated.

Microeconomic question needs help??

Some have argued that the California real estate market is currently in a “bubble” — that is, the price of housing is higher than present levels of supply and demand would indicate. Consider two identical houses that sit side by side on a street in Palo Alto, California. One is offered for rent at $3,000 per month. The other is offered for sale at $1.2 million, which at an interest rate of 5% works out to cost $5,000 per month. Despite this discrepancy, which one of the following statements might be a valid argument AGAINST the proposition that the real estate market is in a bubble?

A. Earthquake damage is a perennial concern in California.

B. Termites are a major problem in Palo Alto, increasing the costs of home ownership.

C. Land in California is scarce, and future immigration into the state is expected.

D. Inflation is likely to remain low for the foreseeable future.
