Office Depot is offering to make free copies of resumes and fax them for job hunters between now and May 30.

The Office Depot deal, good at more than 1,100 locations nationwide, is for up to 25 single-sided pages, faxed to up to five domestic numbers.
Customers can pay for a better grade of paper, or more photocopying, or more faxing than the freebie offer provides.

BRB asks
Who do I talk to for financial advice that does not involve them trying to sell me something? We are 60 and 59, have a 200,000 annuity, are 60-70,000 credit card debt, have a house that is half paid for,own a condo in fl that is not paying for itself, have a good credit rating, not behind on anything, not facing foreclosure, wife on disability, husband still working, Want to pay off credit cards, but don't know how. Should we use part of annuity? I just want to know who to ask for help. Thanks
It looks like you would be well served by a comprehensive financial plan which would address your concerns and give you a clear picture of where you are at financially. Financial advisors are paid in two different ways. Some receive commissions for the products they sell you. There are also fee only financial planners who work for you for a set fee and sell no products. In their case you know exactly how much it will cost you up front. It would also be preferable to use a financial planner who is a Certified Financial Planner.
