A home is a place of residence or refuge and comfort. It is usually a place in which an individual or a family can rest and be able to store personal property. Most modern-day households contain sanitary facilities and a means of preparing food. Animals have their own homes as well, either living in the wild or in a domesticated environment.

There are certain cultures in which members lack permanent homes, such as with nomadic people.

Q. The home is either livable or NOT livable...it matters NOT what disaster ruined the home.. Why then is it that you have to pay extra for each different type of circumstance? An accident is an accident... a disaster is a disaster... the home can only be burned, flooded, distroyed by earthquake / tornado / hurricaine ONCE.. why pay for all the different ways insurance-wise? How covered is covered? And WHY !!! Why?? Is it if you Never have any type of claim you aren't refunded some of that money you spend year after year after year?

A. You used the words paid, pay, money, spend, and they are all correct. It is all about the money, yours specifically, and how much of it the insurance industry can get (steal).

Can an in home daycare take the energy credit for new windows?
Q. My friend hired someone to do her taxes but he is not doing them very well. Didn't ask her about her itemized deductions, etc. Ok, so now on to the new windows. Used the sales tax from the invoice to deduct on the worksheet for the general sales tax. Big uncertainty here is this: Can she take the energy credit for the windows on her home even though she uses that same home as an in home daycare?

A. Her home is a daycare? I'm unsure of how that would work. There would be several other questions I'd have to ask to determine the status of her home and/or business.

What home theater system should I get or where can I find it?
Q. I want a home theater system with: HDMI cable hook up It doesn't need to be able to play DVDs at all, just hook up to one Good surround sound quality A remote Nowhere over $200 Is there any speaker system or home theater system for me? If so, what is it or where could I go to find it myself? Thanks.
Asked by Alex D - Wed Mar 26 23:31:17 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. It will be impossible to find a "quality" home theater setup for less than 200 dollars. That being said, you can get a sub-par setup for less than 200, and i would say that a bad system is better than no system. :) I got mine for $760 dollars on amazon. It's a 7.1 channel, and it supports the new high definition audio formats.
