My roommate and I could use some guidance. We’re both college seniors getting ready to graduate in May. We both studied business, but he focused on finance and I went with operations. Anyway, his top choice ended up offering him a job last week in California. He’s already begun looking at places to live right around Los Angeles, which is where the HQ is based.

I could use some help explaining my job to my dad. I’m a college senior majoring in fine arts. I’ve had a design internship since last year at a pretty reputable technology consulting firm. My dad likes to compare what I’m doing to what he saw on the series Mad Men, but I’ve tried to explain to him that we’re very far from an ad agency.

I’m trying to get my roommate to understand the size of the global black market. Earlier this week, my sociology professor had the class discussing how widespread black market activities were. Some of the students couldn’t believe that the US has one of the largest black markets in the world.

I want to start investing in the stock market. I have a little bit of money that I inherited from my grandparents, and I’m going to start a job when I graduate. So I have some money to invest, and I know that investing is really important to building wealth, so I’m ready to get started here!

While I was at home in New Jersey for the holidays, my parents decided to reveal the fact that my grandpa was having a biopsy done. He had apparently found some suspiciously discolored skin, which his doctor suggested might be the result of melanoma. The whole family was surprised because nobody has a history of cancer. He spent many years habitually smoking cigarettes when he was younger.

I’m a college senior graduating this coming May with a degree in anthropology. I don’t have a job lined up quite yet but I’m not too worried. My biggest concern is my health. I hate to admit it, but the last couple of years have been tough on my body.

I was raised by my parents to really value education. To me, education has always been an inherent good. But in other parts of my family, this attitude isn’t the norm. I love all of my family members, but they don’t all share my values, and some of my cousins have never cracked a book in their lives!

Can you explain Bitcoin to me? Please? I feel like I’m going crazy here.

I want to get better sleep. It’s not necessarily that I’m getting terrible, terrible sleep right now, but I feel like I could be doing better. I’m tired a lot of the time, and I sometimes feel that even if I sleep for longer, I wake up just as tired (or even more tired!). Recently, I’ve been trying to approach my health and my life in a more holistic way, and one thing I’m really trying to focus on is my sleep. So what can the experts tell me about getting the best sleep possible? Any tips or tricks?

My roommate and I could use some expert investing advice. We’re both college seniors graduating in May. Both of us have jobs lined up, which is great, but we also want to explore other options as we get ready to walk. We have a friend who’s been investing about 25% of his discretionary income since his Sophomore year and now has almost $15,000.

I could use some advice from someone knowledgeable about the different pros and cons associated with smoking marijuana. I have a friend back home in Colorado who’s prone to asthma attacks whenever she drinks alcohol. She’s already fairly introverted, so half of the events she attends make her anxious, especially if other people are drinking around her.

I could desperately use some help. My boyfriend’s birthday is soon approaching, and I don’t have any decent gift ideas yet. His present last year was a Lego Collector’s Edition of the Millenium Falcon, which he loved. Deciding to get that was easy, because he’d lost his mind over it when we visited Legoland last year.

My dad recently turned fifty, which was a big deal. My mom spared no expense when it came to the celebrations. Friends and family really enjoyed the festivities, and I was no exception. We planned different activities throughout the whole day, and I could tell that my dad was thrilled about everything.

I could use some help figuring out my options after graduation. I’m a college senior preparing to walk this May. I’ll be graduating with a degree in psychology. I’ve been exploring possible career opportunities but find that the task is pretty discouraging. Despite my major, I really don’t want to go into psychology or psychiatry.

I could use some real advice. My roommate has an older brother in New Jersey who’s had a pretty rough time after dropping out of college. She said he quit to join a business venture with an old high school friend. They were only about four months into it when he decided he didn’t want to do it anymore.

I could use a second opinion. My big brother is a private contractor for a security firm in Dallas. He got the job a few weeks after returning home and being discharged from the Marines. The whole family was relieved when his tour of duty concluded. We expected that he’d be out of harm's way one he settled back into civilian life, but that hasn’t been the case.

Now that I’ve gone off to college, my parents are considering selling the house I grew up in with my siblings. I’m supportive of this, since it seems like a lot to take of when it’s just them living there. Unfortunately, a few weeks ago my parents had torrential rains and the roof above the kitchen started leaking. My parents essentially have to remodel their kitchen because of all the water damage, but they aren’t sure how much to spend on a remodel since they are planning on selling their house soon. Since they have some insurance money to work with, as well as some personal savings, how much should they worry about remodeling a kitchen before they put their house on the market?

My roommate suffered a collision with another car while riding a motorcycle over the holidays. He was joyriding back home in Pennsylvania when another driver blew past a stop light at a major intersection, cutting him off unexpectedly. My roommate slammed on the brakes but still sideswiped the other driver headlong. The force of the impact threw him from the motorcycle and he ended up bruised, but no bones were broken or limbs maimed.

I love my life here on campus. I’m also very committed to succeeding in school. When I left for college, my Dad told me an old joke: “Sleep, studies, social life—pick two.” Well, that seems pretty accurate to me: I can’t sleep.

I’m part of a pretty tight-knit organization at my school, and I’ve been elected to be the social chair this year. Most of the members of this organization live together off campus in an apartment complex, and we usually have parties every year. We make sure that the only people drinking there are over 21 and make it a point to take good care of the property. I’m looking for advice on two issues: 1) what is the most cost-effective way to buy inexpensive but quality alcohol and 2) we have a no-smoking policy in the apartments but people have started vaping. Is vaping okay in an apartment?
