From Jedi - A GM dealer on the FOOL...... We do this for our repeat customers that we trust, and have relationships with Say you buy a new Pontiac for 0%, your amount to finance is $20,000. Have the dealer ad $6,000 to your price. Yep, that's right. Pay $6,000 more! The next day, dealer cuts you a check for $6,000....now you pay off high interest loans for a mere 0%. If someone's credit score is high enough, and the dealership has clout with GMAC, this can work everytime. One of my managers is starting a small business for his Wife to run, and was $20,000 short of the seed money. Well, you should see him driving around in hew new Denali....where he added the $20k to the loan for 0% :) Jedi

So the Oct. 2 edition of Newsweek's cover in Europe, Latin America and Asia features a jihadi fighter on the cover, headlined "Losing Afghanistan." The lead: "Five years after the Afghan invasion, the Taliban are fighting back hard, carving out a sanctuary where they -- and Al Qaeda's leaders -- can operate freely." U.S. readers were spared that depressing blast. Instead, the Newsweek cover here was of photographer Annie Leibovitz and her three adorable children, headlined "My Life in Pictures." The lead said: "In her new book, Annie Leibovitz, our most famous photographer, places celebs side by side with surprisingly personal images of love and loss. An exclusive." ...
