TJ asked:


My finance is swearing all the time, & I have a 7 year old boy, & we have a baby on the way. I don’t think it is good for my son to hear these words all the time. Often he uses cuss words in a normal conversation. He also has a short temper & simple things get him to swear & yell. I don’t want to raise kids like this, how do I get him to stop. Isn’t it bad for kids to hear?

realreynolds asked:


My fiance is considering becoming licensed to sell real estate. I am a first year law student. I have learned a little about real estate transactions and how they work. I understand the roles of both the broker and the attorney, but I’m wondering if my husband-to-be and I will be able to use our skills together to start our own business. Will I have to have a separate practice, or can the real estate lawyer be a part of the broker’s company?

capn bob asked:


I qualify as a real estate professional for tax purposes. I own and manage over 25 rental properties. I have not claimed that status in the past. I have recently married and my husband has retirement and investment income in excess of the maximum income amount allowed under the passive activity rules. If I make a profit from my investments, am I subject to FICA taxes on that income? Is there a downside to claiming real estate professional status?
