I came across this infographic from the website, outright.com earlier today and I thought it’s worth sharing with you guys. It’s about the new 1099-K where online sellers, including eBay, Etsy and Amazon and any others who have $20,000 or more in gross sales and 200 transactions or more will now be receiving a 1099-K form from their third-party payment networks like Paypal, showing gross sales reported to the IRS.

Are you being harassed by debt collectors? Whether it’s your home phone or even your work place, they just can’t stop calling even when you repeatedly told them to stop calling. The sad part is that they harass you over debts that you’ve already paid or debts that are not yours!
I know the feeling because recently, we’ve been receiving collection notices from a collection agency in Newton, Massachusetts called Credit Collection Services for “unpaid home insurance” for a house that was never ours in the first place. The insurance company was Farmers Insurance Group.
My husband had to make lots of calls, fax and emails just to settle this problem and stop collection harassment for good. Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), we consumers have rights. This law was enacted to protect us from collector abuse.
Among the debts covered by the FDCPA are personal, family, and household debts. This includes money you owe on a personal credit card account, an auto loan, a medical bill, and your mortgage. Do note that the Act does not cover debts or liabilities that you incurred in running a business.
You can report those harassments, false statements, unfair practices and other violations of the FDCPA to your state Attorney General’s office and the Federal Trade Commission. If your state’s laws are different from the federal law (FDCPA), your Attorney General’s office can help you determine your rights under the state’s law.
It would be wise to learn more about FDCPA so that you can arm yourself with the knowledge on how to stop collection harassment California or anywhere you might be. Knowledge is power!

My mom likes to meddle in my life, but I usually don’t mind. I know she means well, so I just take everything she says with a grain of salt. Most of the time she likes to give me unsolicited advice that I don’t take, but sometimes she offers up some useful nuggets of information. The other day she recommended I go to www.directstartv.com to switch from cable to Directv, which actually saved me some money. She also gives me great cleaning tips and tricks, like using salt and lemons to get out stains from my wooden cutting boards. When it comes to her meddling, I have decided not to get worked up and angry about it, and just take the good along with the bad. I already know her dating advice is outdated, so I still do my own thing, and just let her think she is helpful. I think all parents do this to some degree, and what is the point of worrying about it? They only want to be involved in our lives and help us do our best. I would hate to upset her for no good reason.
