First of all let me apologize in case this question has all ready been asked.
I was wondering if master cards were discarded after use. For example if I
put down Game of Malkav and use it is it then discarded, or can I use it again?
Are master cards like Enchantments in MtG or are they like sorcerys?

The rule is that unless the card indicates that it sticks around (e.g.
by a statement such as "place on a vampire", by it being a location,
or by it specifying the conditions under which it may be removed),
then it goes away when played. Keep this rule in mind and you
shouldn't have any problems with specific master cards.

Right. Equipment, retainers, and allies stick around indefinitely.
All other card types go to the ash heap when used unless something on
the card specifically indicates otherwise. People tend to think of
master cards as defaulting to sticking around since that class of cards
is chock full of locations and skills and such, but they do default to
being one-shot cards.

I've heard from a previous person that a master card
that says you place on a vampire stays around, so
does that mean the Vast Wealth Master card stays
around? "Put this card on a ready minion. The
minion can now equip with the first piece of equipment
you find in your library, working down from the
top..." Does this mean you can as an action
every turn go looking for a piece of equipment?

Perhaps a little lcarification and examples would be useful here. For instance,
If I play an Information Highway, Master unique location, this stays in play
correct? Likewise for master skills played on vamps to give them that
discipline? Also, what happens with Action cards that grant the vamp with a
superior discipline +3 bleed for rest of game? If that card is burned after
use how do you keep track of its advantage since it doesn't say it stays on
the vamp ( I forget the actual card. )

Right, and right.

Technically the card goes to the ash heap, but since there's no way to get
stuff out of the ash heap in Jyhad, you may as well put the card on the
vampire to remind everyone.

Yep. Don't you just hate the rich?

It is possible to get skill cards out of the ash heap when you diablerize
someone.

Good point. But all the cards you'd want to put on the vampire as a "reminder"
you can't get back, so it's safe to go for it.
