How should we solve the corruption issue in World Bank? Is tranparency in business a good solution? February 8, 2010

Posted by Banking in : Other - Business & Finance , add a comment

Paul Wolfowitz, the president of World Bank, was claimed to be conducting corruption because he gave quite a high wage for his girlfriend. He has now been overthrown, but World Bank is still struggling with the corruption issue. So, what solutions can you suggest? Do you think that if they become more transparent in their lending and borrowing money to the countries is a good solution? Please verify your opinion. Thx a lot! ^0^Submited by:Angela

Can you transfer other credit cards onto your target visa? February 8, 2010

Posted by Banking in : Credit , 1 comment so far

I don’t see a link on the website and I want to put my 3 other cards on my target visa to save some money. I go to the other cards sites and they don’t have options to pay with credit card, only bank info. Why can’t you pay credit card bills with another credit card? I can’t seem to find out any info on how to do that. Thank you.Submited by:kevinitisii

I recently bought a magnetic card case to carry my credit cards and it seems that the magnet is destroying my credit cards. I had a case exactly like this (same brand, same type) before and the magnets never did this before. Is there anything I can do?

I already wrote the company that makes the card case and they were no help at all.

Diva asked:


I have always paid off my credit card balances in full every month, but on the next billing statement I won’t be able to. My current balance is $1,413. My credit card interest rate is 14.49%. Is it true that I will be charged interest on my full balance even if I pay half the balance? I called my credit card company and the rep said yes, but I don’t think she was very knowledgeable.
