So far I know I've done, the Black Smith, Rentals, Score of 500, and Forging my own Item. I've tried to goto the Help!>Welcome page. I unfortunately cannot tell If I have done the Goal or not.. Could anyone help me with it, and the other Goals perhaps? I appreciate any help possible. Thank you.

Well, these goals just represent some basic things in Carnage Blender. They show you around and give you a nice overview of all the features CB has. Anyway, here's some help:
Navigate to the Welcome page in Help ($50)
In your left frame, in the upper left corner, there a link that says "Help!". Click that and you'll enter our CB Wiki. The first page is the welcome page. From there, you can look up other information.
View Conundrum's history graph ($50)
Conundrum is a character. You can look him up by choosing "Specify..." in your left frame, under the 'Opponents'-tab. Type Conundrum and hit "Inspect". That'll lead you to the character overview page. There's a link on this page (right frame) with "History graph". The graph shows you some information about the growth of the char, etc.
Use a ranged weapon and appropriate ammo in combat ($100)
CB has three types of ranged weapons, slings, bows and crossbows. They all need different kinds of ammo and your minion will fire it in the first three rounds of combat. Try buying a ranged weapon and equip the appropriate ammo, and fight another character.
Place an order at the Blacksmith business ($100)
The blacksmith can be used for upgrading your items. He can be found in your left frame, under 'Places' --> 'Businesses'. You can select your item from there and what you want to upgrade.
For the other goals, look around the site. Just click some stuff. You'll learn quite a bit doing so :D Feel free to ask questions in chat though. Have fun!

Correction, when in the help-section, you still need to go to "Basics (Read these first)" and "Welcome".
Goto community > Mentors, then next to your mentors name, click the number and look for you, it will tel you what goals you have completed.
Jon, can mentors have more knowledge on these Goals? So far, ive had 4 mentees at least question me on Goals and how they work, all i can tell them is...
"Us carnage Blenderers who have been here for a while have never used Goals, so we have no idea how they work, so all i can tell you is to find out for yourself, which is the reason i think they were implmented in the first place. Sorry i couldnt help you more with it."

what is there to explain? You do the deed, you get the reward.
I think Mr_Ekted's problem is that Walaido is actually a retired character, so he can't complete that goal.

Why is it that most of the goals actually cost more to do than they give back? Shouldn't the reverse be the case?

Mr Ekted said in chat that he couldn't see whether the goals were completed or not. I can't verify that, obviously, but I think that's what he's referring to here. The 'bug' might be that he completed the goal, but that it just doesn't show.
He was telling us about the first one, he had visited the 'welcome'-page in the wiki a dozen times, but it still showed up on his goals list. In that case, how can you tell you have done the deed and got your reward?

"how can you tell you have done the deed and got your reward"
when you complete any of them you get big letters at the top of the page saying more or less "good job, here's your pat on the back"
From mentors Gandalf's page of mentees:
Mr Ekted ..... 8:10 AM EST ..... blacksmith, forge, help, history graph, rent, score 500, use ranged
