I recently saw a segment on The Today Show that really grabbed my attention. They were talking about the latest trend in home parties, called Gold Parties.
Since many of us have acquired a fair amount of jewelry over the years, much of which never gets worn, or maybe it's from an ex and it's never going to be worn (!), it would be fun to turn that unwanted gold into cold hard cash. Especially now that gold prices have exceeded $1000 an ounce! |

What does this mean? It means that you will pay 18 cents higher than the current rate of 96 cents per $100 of your home’s assessed value. According to Loudoun Times, the tax rates may also be going to get higher next year. I recently had a correspondence on this issue with Jim Burton, Loudoun County Board of Directors member from Blue Ridge District. I am able to publish it, since all correspondence to government officials becomes part of the public record and may be subject to inspection under the Virginia Freedom of Information Act.
