Is independent study hard?
nooooo! It's the easiest thing ever! all I do is write fake answers on all my packets, because they never check it, they just want you to get it done, and I just read the information in the packets as my study guide. Some courses are a bit difficult though, just read the packets, and flip through each chapter before you take your test and you should be fine. And don't worry about failing a test, they let you re-take it. yeah, the answer above me also, just make sure you don't get lazy.
Why is it hard being independent while still living at home?
I kinda have this problem of just living under my parents roof at the age of 21, it no longer feels or seems right to me. I go to a vocational school that's doing little to no help for me on becoming a IT, I don't have a car, nor the money to buy a car. And I just still stuck in this rut, my everyday life is wake up go to school, go feed my step-dad's disabled uncle for less than 10 bucks a day now, go home, eat, jack off, sleep, wake up, eat, and repeat. After a while this gets ******* boring, and I no longer want to live here anymore. All my friends are leaving this year they are going to medical school and I'm still stuck in this ******* Hell hole.
Why is it so hard for me (independent woman) to find a lover?
“She’s a feminist.”“She’s a total bitch, man!”It’s very common to hear independent women called and talked about in this fashion, especially if you are a man. They are probably the most misunderstood kind of people in our society. Mostly because our society is just too used to women playing second fiddle to men.Now, the question arises why it is so hard to find a lover for any independent women?So, here are some points which I felt ?1.Most men become insecure around strong and independent women.Why dude women can be alpha too!2.They have their priorities a little bit tweaked so that love takes a backseat. Career, family, travel, and self-happiness are more important.3.Just because independent women believe in equality, it doesn’t make them feminazis.4.Patriarchal mindset is still present in many of the men’s and his parents’ heads.5.Independent women guard their emotions well. This makes them harder to express love.6. They have rather high standards, which is not digested well.7.They are dismissed because they are labeled as “too challenging���.Yes! I am independent girl and I found my partner after struggling so much and our relationship is truly an equal one. Where we both bring a lot to the table. Where we both of them can learn a lot from each other.
How can I become independent?
First, you need to come out of your comfort zone. You need to not use the safety net that is your parents. I am an engineering student studying in Jharkhand. I am from Andhra Pradesh originally. It takes around 33 hours for me to go home.If you are a student, it is not very possible to be independent completely. You need to rely on your parents for basic requirements like money.But the life I live is completely in my control.I decide when I attend my classes. I decide when I go out with my friends. I figure out what to do, when to do it, and how it do it entirely by myself. I take help from my parents only when I hit rock bottom.You need to do the same. You cannot be truly independent if you are not prepared to stop using your safety net. Living this way feels awesome! I am learning how to value my relationships truly. I can say with almost utmost certainty that I know how to choose my company. I am at the whims of myself. Sure! It is hard! You no longer have a source of money whenever you feel like going out. You cannot just have something you like just by pestering and nagging. Not anymore. At least not without guilt. You will learn the true value of money. You are now forced to keep an account of everything you spend. But it is worth it! You will learn that your actions have consequences. Your every single action.So, to conclude. Forego the safety and comfort of your parents and face the world."You cannot cross the ocean unless you lose sight of the shore"
Is independent study harder than regular schooling?
I did regular school, then homeschooling during high school. And I will tell you, it is a heck of alot harder to do the work on your own. At you school you have a constant reminder that your work is due on this date, but with independent studing you have a time frame, like the last week of the month to have your work in. You need to have self disipline to able to work outside of a school environment, and make sure you set time up each day with your studing as if you were still in school. The minute you slack, the minute your work begans to slack. I am pretty sure you can go back to regular school, I know where I'm from (Ohio) you can, but there is a gracing period of which you will have to wait for transcripts to get transferred and whatnot.
At what point in your life did you become fully independent?
fully, about 18 give or take a few months. first thing to remember, life cost money and a good job is the best start you can have. i didn't have much more than enough to keep gas in my old car. but that got me to college with loans and hard work to see me through the next section of my life as did that old car. but i was independent in a lot of ways from an early age so the transition to adulthood wasn't as rough on me as i saw it be on other young adults. the biggest change for me was the pretense of having a safety net was gone. i could no longer pretend that if i failed there would be anything to keep me from getting hurt. best i can tell you is to prepare yourself for the things you are going to need to do as an adult. learn about financial responsibility, how to cook, clean, and do your own laundry if you don't already. stretch those wings so that they are strong when you will need them to fly. good luck.
Why is being independent so difficult?
This is a question that I will try to do my best writing an answer. Puerto Rico has always been a colony: 1492–1898, a Spain colony, 1898-present, a USA colony. This political status is all that Puerto Ricans know. There are social and psychological issues with Puerto Ricans and independence. Being a colony for so long has created a feeling in Puerto Ricans minds that we cannot survive alone. I compare the situation with a lion that you take care of it since it is a cub, then you decide to put it in a jungle, will he survive?, maybe, but it take long and hard. This is the part that Peerto Ricans are afraid of; how long and how hard will be the process.We grew up with the influence that being a republic is not good because you will suffer extreme poverty and we had living examples of our neighbors, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Haiti.Among other issues, the USA goverment has some social programs that part of the population [one million aprox] receive, from my point of view this added a complicated ingredient to the fobia toward idependence; Puerto Ricans are afraid of loosing this social programs. A lot of Puerto Ricans love the status quo, and have a nice name for a colonial status; Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. The independence party does not have a credible and realistic plan that convince Puerto Ricans that life quality will be the same or better as an independent country. Finally, does the USA will give us the independence or they prefer to keep the colony?
What is the life of an independent property claims adjuster?
I was an independent adjuster for quite a few years and yes, it can be hard to get out. I left and returned several times. It can be hard to leave because in a busy year, the money is very good, and it is hard to give up the flexibility and autonomy. It is also hard to clean up your files enough to leave before you get more. Depending on how busy it is, the hours can be very short, or excruciatingly long. Likewise, the pay (you are usually paid by the billable hour) can be very good, or you can starve. A lot depends on the weather, as well as your relationships with the insurance companies that assign the claims. It can be a difficult and stressful job. When you are busy, you can fall behind. The insureds (policyholders with claims) want their money NOW, and will call at all hours to nag, scream, and swear at you. Physical threats (even death threats) are not uncommon. People will sic their dogs on adjusters, try to push them off of roofs, and so much more. They will call your supervisor, or the claims rep that assigned the loss to you, and tell lies about you in an attempt to get you in trouble. Adjusters spend way too much time defending themselves against bogus accusations. The majority of the claims you handle will be exaggerated or outright fraudulent, and it is the adjuster's job to say "no", which most people do not like to hear. You will be dealing with complaints from insureds, agents, restoration contractors, regulatory officials, and anybody else that has a stake in the claim. When a difficult claim is finally settled, don't expect much appreciation from the claims rep that assigned the loss. They almost always feel that the adjuster takes too long, and pays too much. And, they can switch to a different adjuster at any time, for any reason, or no reason at all. I realize that I have made this sound like a pretty miserable job- for most people, it is. However, if you are a good, persuasive communicator, intelligent, inquisitive, and have a VERY thick skin, you might find the job quite enjoyable most of the time.
Why is it so hard to become financially independent when you only need a few thousands dollars a month?
The reason why it's so hard to generate a fixed income of $50,000 per year without working is because it actually takes a substantial amount of assets to create such an income. Here is how much in assets it would take to generate $50,000 per year, at different levels of income yield:You need a 10% yield on $500,000 worth of assets to generate $50,000 in incomeYou need a 5% yield on $1,000,000 worth of assets to generate $50,000 in incomeYou need a 2.0% yield on $2,500,000 worth of assets to generate $50,000 in incomeWith the level of interest rates, dividend yields, real estate capitalization rates, etc. as low as they are at this time (October 2015), you would need a relatively large principal balance to generate $50,000 in income if you were to purchase the assets now. For example, the S&P 500 yields about 2% right now, so you would need to purchase about $2,500,000 worth of the S&P 500 index (likely through an ETF or index fund) to generate $50,000 in income annually. With the median net worth of the top 10% of American households at $1.87 million according to the 2013 Federal Reserve Survey of Consumer Finances, this is a difficult goal to achieve for many of the wealthiest Americans, let alone American households of average wealth.Source: http://www.federalreserve.gov/pu...
