We are entering a period of feudalism similar to the Dark Ages!!
Tumblr media
Ya know,.... when ya think about it, and know your world history,.... Democracy is just repackaged feudalism that use to be the reality, and then they started to call it Democracy with more human rights so people would think they had a say in things, but it's still basically still feudalism capitalism.
It's when "Have-it-alls" and "Well-to-doers" don’t want to share any of it,...... feudalism!
Ya see, and don’t we see what is going on around us?
The 'have-it-alls' and the 'well-to-doers' don’t give a damn what is happening in society
This is the way they want things now. It could be the end of the world for human and civil rights of the individual, but to the likes of them, they aren’t bothered by any of that, because they got theirs and they want to keep it, so they are making sure you don't get yours is what's going on.
Anyway that's the way I see things unfolding.
The world "we all made" is being gentrified by billionaires so they have the upper hand while we the people pay Homage to these feudal lords of power and wealth,... I mean look around, everything keeps going up, costing more, and our wages are kept at a minimum so we can just barely get by and remain literal slaves of finance so we can just pay our bills and little more.
Billionaires are keeping that scenario going so they remain in power.
I mean,.....the feudal system of government came about in France in the 8th Century when a number of weak kings had to buy loyalty from nobles. They bought loyalty with land they just took from whomever they had to kill to get it. When the Duke of Normandy conquered England in 1066 he confiscated all lands and then distributed them to about 200 elite barons and nobles who had supported his invasion.
Each elite kept between 200 to 350 knights to defend his land and possessions, along with the help of about 10,000 peasants living as “sharecroppers” and renters on their land. Peasants could not freely move from one elite owner to another. Knights were often given land and supervision of peasants to maintain their loyalty. Huge castles and Downton Abbey-like homes were the courthouses of the “counties” owned by the elites of the century.
That system lasted until revolutions in England, Europe, and America destroyed the remnants of feudalism and brought some aspects of democracy to government. The absolute authority of kings was finally challenged and defeated by the New Americans, who killed off and enslaved the native indians to get their own nation,.... just like the kings of Europe did.
Now FAST FORWARD, The United States, because of income inequality, is entering a period of feudalism similar to the Dark Ages. The bottom 80% can no longer afford to live in or close to many cities decently. The top 20% have to spend more for security as desperate people succumb to drug addiction and theft to support a habit and themselves in a feudalism created society.
And most just try to ignore it, hoping it will go away on it's own, ......... and it won't, it isn't!
Sooooo,... Just who are the kings, barons, knights, and peasants now?
The Best Congress Money Can Buy has been bought since a Republican Supreme Court decided in the Citizens United case that money equals “free” speech, thus unleashing a tsunami of political campaign money.
My rent and cost to live goes up every year, and yet the government tells me the economy is doing so well my Social Security cost of living increase will be LOW this year?!?!
In essence,....The king telling the peasant to be thankful that he's not punished for his insolence towards the governing barons..........Lol
I can only guess that the rest of you are doing just great financially, because you keep voting to keep this Democratic repackaged feudalism to continue by continuing to vote for the two party corruption, which is Democratic and Republican Barons.
That's the gist of my conjecture anyway, and with it and $6 dollars you can buy a cup of coffee!

Hockey Horoscopes
March 21st - April 19th - The Captain 
at the end of the day The Captain only has one job that’s written down -- talking to the ref. Don’t like a penalty? Don’t like a missed penalty? don’t agree with a no goal call? well you literally can’t change their mind because it’s almost against the rules for the refs to do so, but you get to be the one to yell at them about it anyway. Are you actually a good leader? maybe. but it doesn’t matter. for you it’s about yelling. and making sure the rookies have their names written on their lunchboxes. 
April 20th - May 20th - The Selke Winner
A player who wins the Selke will always be underrated. They could win the Hart and they’d still be underrated. Why? Because they fucking score and play defense? literally no other type of player does this. Is being relied on like this stressful as hell? sure but someone’s gotta do it. In some ways you enjoy it. Yeah it kind of sucks but at least if you’re doing it, you can try not to fuck up. No one else is trustworthy enough.
May 21 - June 20 - Trade Bait
A lot of the time the team doesn’t even want to trade you they just really want a first round pick and your name gets stapled to whatever package is being sent for it. Which team will you be on next month? who knows but jerseys are really expensive and you pretty much have all of them at this point, that’s just good economics. Someone who is trade bait has inherent value that’s proven over and over again but this can end up making you feel more like a possession than a person and you constantly struggle with your identity and your concept of personhood because of it.
June 21 - July 22 - The Bro
Summers are for fishing, golfing, dogs, and posting shirtless pics to instagram. Can real life have homo erotic subtext? ask the picture you posted at 5 am this morning of you messily hanging over another player on someone’s boat. Some think you don’t take your work seriously but of course you do because how else would you buy all your snapbacks? They’re not cheap these days. Do you bank on people finding your personality overexaggerated and a little fake as a way to keep them from knowing and therefore judging the real you? Probably. but hey, you’ve only been traded twice for off ice conduct and you haven’t had a scandal in three months. you’re doing fine. 
July 23rd - August 22 - Good Ol’ Canadian Boy
Remember that time you yelled at an old lady in the grocery store? Doesn’t matter cause literally no body else does. You’re good boy image has done that for you. All you gotta do is say the same three things in every interview and all the 40-80 year olds who watch hockey will love you and at the end of the day, that’s 90% of people who watch hockey so you’re good. Does your lack of individuality and the constant pressure for you to be The Savior wear on you and cause you to make impulsive and stupid decisions? Oh for sure, but no one will hold it against you. or maybe they will. Your life is kind of just like an exciting game of reputation roulette. 
August 23rd - September 22nd - 4th Line Enforcer
No one has to ask you to bloody your knuckles for your team, you’ll do it any day of the week. Your teammates all love you, they fetch your food and drinks for you. They clean up your locker for you and your goalie even lets you score during practice. You just can’t shake the feeling though that people do nice things for you as part of a transaction where you pay them back by beating the shit out of any guy that takes a run at them. You protecting those you’re closets with is of utmost importance, and you know they appreciate it. But you also know at the end of the day loyalty can only go so far and when it comes time for your GM to trim the fat off the salary cap, you’re first to go. but hey, during your first game back that rookie you took under your wing who’s now a full grown man will make eye contact with you, and for a split second you’ll remember why all of this was all worth it. 
September 23rd - October 22nd - The Lone American
Maybe you’re patriotic or maybe you couldn’t give a shit but the truth remains that you are alone on a team in the middle of Alberta with 99% canadians. Your only confidant is your finnish d partner and the video review coach’s assistant, Jeremy, who just graduated from UMich and even he  says “about” funny. Because of this you take every opportunity to repeat the miracle monologue and you insist on stopping at every dunkin donuts you come within a 50 mile radius from. You’re not used to being the odd man out but now that you are, you find that you are almost regretfully being proud of something you previously didn’t connect with. Did you know all the lyrics to the anthem before? nope but now you do if only to sing along loudly enough to piss off everyone else on the team plane wondering why you’re standing in the aisle with your hand over your heart. You may need to stop defining yourself by the things that make you different from others, before you sever the bonds completely. Until then, do you believe in Miracles? YES!
October 23rd - November 21st - The Rat
The Commish has you on speed dial and your coach made a soundboard so they didn’t lose their voice yelling at you all game. You spend your free time studying the greats, the founding fathers of trash talk. Being the one everyone loves to hate has become so much your identity that you may forget every now and then that you’re not just an entertainer, you’re a person. In between making cooing noises at opponents and criticizing hair cuts of your teammates try to say one genuine thing. Just at all. Before you lose yourself entirely in the persona.
November 22nd - December 21st - Second Line Centre
Sure people usually follow up your name by saying “...makes how much?” but you’re worth it goddamnit. Not everyone lead the league in playoff goals in the 2014 season even though your team didn’t win that year RIP. Despite doing your best at every turn you never can seem to really please anyone. You’re stuck in the shadow of someone you consider a life long friend and have to constantly surround yourself with good people and good words to not grow to resent your space. Those who like you, like you for your easiness and your work ethic. But remember, there’s nothing wrong with an over celebration and patting yourself on the back every now and then.
December 22nd - January 19th - The Vet
Welcome to the big leagues kid, work hard and you may find a home here... is what you usually say to others when they enter your locker room. You care and you take things seriously because that’s just the right thing to do. But you also can realize the importance of real life over a game you play for money. Your head is on your shoulders and you have a life time experience under your belt and you aren’t even 50 yet. So that’s pretty cool. But as one chapter ends and another begins, don’t forget what excitement and exhilaration feel like.
January 20th - February 18th - The University Graduate
Sure a lot of your teammates went to school, the american ones mostly, but almost none of them actually got their degree. Why should they? they’re making bank. Unfortunately for them but mostly you, they’re all fucking dumb jock meatheads and make fun of you for reading. You only got your Bachelor’s with a straight B average, but these guys make you feel like you got your PhD when you were 17. “You went to Harvard?” They ask in awe, as if you didn’t get in solely on your athletics scholarship. Try not to let your own academic success get to your head though, Kindness and compassion are a lot more valuable in the long run and you’d be surprised by what dumbass jocks have to say. or probably not. but i’m trying to make a point about how academia does not equal = intelligence. to again make another point about how when we’re surrounded by people with different values than us we may begin to feel superior when really we should take the opportunity to learn from them as much as they learn from us. this is all fun and games folks.
February 19th - March 20th - Almost Joined a Punk Band
None of your tattoos are lions or include your own last name/family crest, you’re too original for that. As a kid you used to dream of being on a stage more than you dreamed of raising the stanley cup, but hey in world juniors you scored an OT goal and got to play air guitar as your celly so it’s kind of the same thing. Your parents were iffy about you playing a sport with the same type of kids who would have bullied you in high school but you stand on your own. But you made friends by teaching your teammates how to play the guitar. So sure you’re the odd man out but people like you. and you know what it’s like to be judged, so your open minded attitude draws people to you naturally. Just make sure you don’t trust too much because that open and creative attitude can turn into you being jaded, washed up, and wishing you actually did join a punk band insted.

Catholic Daily Reading + Reflection: 29 November 2020 - First Sunday Of Advent
Tumblr media
Readings at Mass for Sunday November 29, 2020
FIRST SUNDAY OF ADVENT YEAR B: Advent is the season that begins the Liturgical Year. It originated in the early Church as a short period of intense preparation for the celebration of the nativity of the Lord on December 25th. Advent slowly came to be structured into four Sundays with proper readings and prayers. This season is marked by devout and joyful expectation as we recall the first humble coming of the Lord at Bethlehem. At the same time, we are invited to direct our mind and heart towards Christ’s final coming in glory at the end of time. Vestment: Violet Today’s Rosary: The Glorious Mystery MINNA: Tomorrow is the 24th anniversary of the Episcopal ordination of Most Revd Martin Uzoukwu, 30th November, 1996. Theme of the Sunday: The Vigilant Wait: The Advent readings invite us to be vigilant, to be ready to receive the Lord who is coming. The first reading says God is “father” and “redeemer”. Nobody is so enslaved by sin that he cannot be freed and “redeemed”. Today’s gospel tells us that the “redeemer” comes, but we have to be vigilant. Those who sleep will remain slaves to sin, and will not be ransomed. The second reading is also on this theme: the Christians of Corinth are held up to us as examples of vigilance. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
Entrance Antiphon Ps25:1-3
To you, I lift up my soul, O my God. In you, I have trusted; let me not be put to shame. Nor let my enemies exult over me; and let none who hope in you be put to shame.
Collect
Grant your faithful, we pray, almighty God, the resolve to run forth to meet your Christ with righteous deeds at his coming, so that, gathered at his right hand, they may be worthy to possess the heavenly kingdom. Through our Lord. .
FIRST READING
”O that you would rend the heavens and come down.” A reading from the Book of Isaiah (Isaiah 63:16d-17;64:13b-8) You, O Lord, are our Father, our Redeemed from old is your name. O Lord, why do you make us err from your ways and harden our heart, so that we do not fear you? Return for the sake of your servants, the tribes of your heritage. O that you would tear the heavens and come down, that the mountains might quake at your presence! You came down, the mountains quaked at your presence. From of old no one has heard or perceived by the ear, no eye has seen a God besides you, who works for those who wait for him. You meet him that joyfully works righteousness, those that remember you in your ways. Behold, you were angry, and we sinned; in our sins we have been a long time, and shall we be saved? We have all become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous deeds are like a polluted garment. We all fade like a leaf, and our iniquities, like the wind, take us away. There is no one that calls upon your name, that bestirs himself to take hold of you; for you have hidden your face from us, and have delivered us into the hand of our iniquities. Yet, O LORD, you are our Father; we are the clay, and you are our potter; we are all the work of your hand. The word of the Lord.
RESPONSORIAL PSALM Ps 80:2ac and 3b. 15-16a.18-19 (R. 4)
R/. O God, bring us back; Let your face shine on us, and we shall be shaved. O shepherd of Israel, hear us, enthroned on the cherubim, shine forth. Rouse up your might and come to save us. R. God of hosts, turn again, we implore; look down from heaven and see. Visit this vine and protect it, The vine your right hand has planted. R. May your hand be on the man at your right hand, the son of man you have confirmed as your own. And we shall never forsake you again; Give us life that we may call upon your name. R.
SECOND READING
We wait for the revealing of our Lord Jesus Christ. A reading from the first Letter of Saint Paul to the Corinthians (1 Corinthians1:3-9) Brethren: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. I give thanks to God always for you because of the grace of God which was given you in Christ Jesus, that in every way you were enriched in him with all speech and all knowledge—even as the testimony to Christ was confirmed among you—so that you are not lacking in any spiritual gift, as you wait for the revealing of our Lord Jesus Christ; who will sustain you to the end, guiltless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. The word of the Lord.
ALLELUIA Psalm 85:7
Alleluia. Let us see, O Lord, your mercy and grant us your salvation. Alleluia.
GOSPEL
“Watch therefore—for you do not know when the master of the house will come.” A reading from the holy Gospel according to Mark (Mark 13:33-37) At that time: Jesus said to his disciples: “Take heed, watch and pray; for you do not know when the time will come. It is like a man going on a journey, when he leaves home and puts his servants in charge, each with his work, and commands the door keeper to be on the watch. Watch therefore — for you do not know when the master of the house will come, in the evening, or at midnight, or at cockcrow, or in the morning—lest he come suddenly and find you asleep. And what I say to you I say to all: Watch.” The Gospel of the Lord. Prayer of the Faithful Stay awake PRIEST: My brothers and sisters, God our Father wants us to be sensitive to his nearness at all times. Let us pray today that during this season of Advent, we may always stay spiritually awake, conscious of his abiding love for us (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); READER: For the Church and her leaders, (Pause), that they may be more and more aware of their unique mission in our world, and so strive to serve mankind by reflecting Christ in all they say and do. (pause) We pray to the Lord For world peace. (pause). That those in charge of political affairs may always be conscious that true justice is based on man’s dignity, whatever his race, colour, creed or social position. (Pause) ,We pray to the Lord. For those who are oppressed because of what they believe, (pause) that, in all the trials which befall them, they may never lose faith and trust in God’s loving care for them as a Father (pause) .We pray to the Lord For an increase of faith in our community, (Pause). That we may put our trust in God our Father, so that the Lord Jesus may find us watching and ready, at his Second Coming. (Pause) We pray to the Lord Lord hear our prayer we pray Oh Lord. We pray to the Lord, in silence, for our own needs. PRIEST: Father, we make our prayer to you in Advent, that by staying awake in faith and love every moment of our lives, we may prepare ourselves for the Second Coming of the Lord. Through Christ our Lord. Amen
Today's Reflection
The season of Advent is a period of preparation for the birth of the Messiah. It has four Sundays. The new liturgical year begins in the church. We are called to prepare for the coming of the Lord. It is certain that the Lord is coming but the day or the hour is not known. In the gospel passage of today, Christ tells us to be watchful and alert. We are to stay awake and watch for his coming. We should live in such a way that when he comes, he should not find us wanting. He should find us doing what he commanded us to be doing: loving God and loving one another; living holy/ righteous lives. May he meet us doing our Christian duty when he comes. May he meet us ready to welcome him whenever he comes, since he will come “like a thief in the night”.
Personal Devotional,
MY SPIRITUAL CHECK-UP IN ADVENT There is no better time than now to have a spiritual cheek-up for our souls as we prepare for the coming of Our Lord this Advent Season. The idea behind this exercise is to re-examine ourselves, and make amends with God and put ourselves alright with Him. When you go through this, remember it is designed to expose grey areas in our souls. This SPIRITUAL CHECK-UP IS ABSOLUTELY FREE unlike your medical cheek-up. This exercise will be within the four Sundays of Advent, kindly avail yourself and your family of this opportunity. USE THE FOLLOWING LISTS AS GUIDE TO EXAMINE YOUR LIFE BEFORE THE LORD. Please, take each one slowly and meditate on it carefully. 1. CHEATING - Did you get anything from anyone unfairly? Does someone know or suspect that you cheated to pass an important test or exam? Did you rob someone of their fair share of praise or pay for a job? (Jas. 5:1-4; Mal. 3:5; Deut. 24:14-15; Jer. 22:13; Job 31:13 2. HINDRANCE - Have you destroyed another's confidence in you by needlessly taking up their time? Have you prevented them from doing God's work for yourself? (Eph. 5:16)  3. HYPOCRISY- Did the life you lived before some people make all you said of Christ and His gospel a lie? Have you said one thing and done another? Were others turned from God by your life that declared to them your hypocrisy? (Matt. 6:5-6; 7:3-5; 23:28; Rev. 3:15-16)  4. STEALING - Can you remember taking money for property that was not yours? Did you steal from neighbors, relatives, shops or stores, school or home? (Ex. 20:15; Eph. 4: DIAGNOSIS If the Holy Spirit shows us our sin, we must go back to the cross where the Lord first met us. We see the Lord Jesus once crucified - for that sin - bearing our penalty. Our sin nails Jesus to the cross all over again. We tear open His wounds and make His redemption a mockery. Walk out into the light of reality. Drop your self-deceit and face this sin for what it really is. Turn from it, from your heart. Take sides with God against it,- resolve in your heart NEVER to go back into that sin again. MEDICATION OR SURGERY NEEDED? Note that, "If we confess our sins, He is FAITHFUL and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."(1 Jn. 1:9) Will you go to your gracious and loving Father as a little child and humbly ask His forgiveness? The LORD is merciful and gracious...He has not dealt with us after our sins, nor rewarded us according to our iniquities; “For as the heaven is above the earth, so great is His mercy towards them that fear Him; as far as the east is from the west, so far hath He removed our transgressions from us." (Ps. 103:12) Let Us Pray (Please go down on your kneels and pray for forgiveness) "Oh God, You know my foolishness, and my sin is not concealed from You...please pardon my iniquity, for it is great...If you, Lord, would mark iniquities, who shall stand? But there is forgiveness with You, that You may be feared." (Ps. 69:5; 25:11; 130:3-4) look with pity on me, your humble servant, and have mercy in Jesus name. Mary my dearest mother pray to Jesus for me.

It’s Always Personal: Personal finance
Tumblr media
Personal finance can be defined as the manner in which a woman addresses the acquisition, management, preservation, and growth of money and things of value that she personally has access to, receives, or controls. In addition to what are traditionally termed ‘assets’, this also refers to debts, liabilities, and issues of taxation. We’re going to compartmentalize these in terms of acquisition (earning through employment and entrepreneurship, as well as inheritance and windfalls), management (expenditures), and preservation and growth (saving and investing).
Note: I do not give investment advice about which stocks, bonds, or financial instruments to purchase. Likewise, I will not advise on the acquisition of real estate, precious metals, or any other investment class. I will, however, offer thoughts on how to think about investing, which is very different.
How these issues of acquisition, management, and preservation and growth are considered is a very individual process: how you approach them will depend greatly on your own financial situation, your personal situation, and your goals. As an example, the approach to personal finance for a 22 year-old college student with a trust fund and a 40 year-old working mother of two on a salary are going to be different. How they’ll look at employment, consider investing, and prioritize spending may be worlds apart. However, the fundamentals presented here remain constant.
As we begin our discussion of personal finance, we must acknowledge that it does not happen in a vacuum. Social and political factors influence a woman’s ability to make, keep, and grow her nest egg. There exists an unjust and unfair landscape that women face in this area, which is often reflected in statistics. For example, while women control over 80% of the decisions made regarding consumer spending, they earn 20 to 45% less than their male counterparts in the workplace. Reports vary country to country around the world, but the reality remains: women purchase for themselves and their family members—what some economists refer to as ‘circle spending’, i.e., buying decisions made for their ‘family circle’—yet they remain underpaid.
Despite arguably doing more of the work (at home and the office) and being paid less (on the job, not to mention getting zero pay at home), women around the world still manage to control billions in assets. Day in and day out, they make economic 129 decisions which multinational corporations rely upon for their very existence, not to mention their profits. Day in and day out, women often balance the budget and the checkbook for their families and monitor savings and investment as well.
As the gatekeepers of what does and does not enter the family home, a woman’s choices are pivotal. If a woman decides a product or service is unsafe—for them or their families—the product or service will not sell. It is doomed. Just as we’ve said that you must pay for what you purchase, corporations will also pay for making products that do not resonate with women, are not considerate of women, or that are not approved of by women. Be attentive to the power you as a woman have.
Again, women are the economic ‘final arbiters’ of much of what their children, husbands, and families buy, do, participate in, or avoid. The opinions and choices of women around the world factor heavily into almost every economic indicator or forecast currently in use. Women as a group are the single largest influence on an economy, whether it’s a good influence like savings and investment rates, or a bad influence like consumer debt.
At this point in the 21st century, women enjoy more rights, privileges, and opportunities than at other time in history. Gone are the days when women were completely dependent on men for information, opportunity, protection and survival. Women now have the option to work outside the home, start a business, own property, influence the economy, and gain or retain any level of financial independence they choose.
This fresh, new generation of women is stepping into entrepreneurship, embracing and driving innovation. As they do, a new wave of businesses with women-centered values and ideas is emerging. These businesses more accurately address women’s needs, desires, and pain points. These businesses are more likely to be sustainable, organic, cruelty free, and toxin free.
Historically overlooked and underfunded in venture capital circles, women are now in financial positions of power. Most women know that 80% of the products they purchase are designed, built, and sold to women by men. They also know that this can, and must, change.
Remember: all you need is a vision, a commitment to hard work, access to some resources, and a little bit of luck. You may not make a million dollars, but you could make two, five, or ten million. Saved and invested wisely, proceeds from your job or business can provide you with options. And options are one of the most important things you can have in life. Don’t sit and wait for opportunities to improve your financial situation. Rise up and create them for yourself. Forget ‘leveling the playing field’. Today’s ‘playing fields’ have been created by men and are coded for men. Create your own. Think entrepreneurship.
I’m sharing all of this with you prior to a discussion of ‘personal finance’ in order to alter your perception of yourself. As I mentioned in the Introduction, you are the one who earns, manages, spends, and invests your money. You may be at a disadvantage in some instances, but you are not a victim. You are not helpless. You are in the driver’s seat. Make no mistake about it: in a capitalist society, money is power. While you may be reading this and be under a mountain of credit card or student debt, you can turn your situation around with the application of some personal finance fundamentals. All it takes is some awareness, some choices, and some time. Throughout these chapters, I’m going to ask you to constantly remember the Old Money Order of Things when it comes to personal finance: Plan. Earn. Save. Invest. Spend. Emblazon these words upon your retina. Each step is important, and the order of each step is important. One step at a time.
DECLARATIONS OF INDEPENDENCE
Let’s get a handle on the often-discussed concept of ‘financial independence’. It means different things to different people, but there are some common benchmarks that we can establish. These benchmarks will help you understand where you are presently and chart where you want to be in the future. These benchmarks have corresponding levels of ‘independence’—options or choices you do or don’t have.
When you see ‘financial independence’ in these terms, you will be more inclined to make choices with your money because money will become not something you use to purchase things, but a tool you use purchase your freedom. Here are the three basic, broad categories of financial independence and the freedoms associated with each:
Minimum Independence: If you only have enough money to make it through the end of the month, your independence is limited: you have to go to work, even at a job you don’t like. The people you work with may be jerks and the work you’re assigned awful or boring, but you feel obligated because you have to honor your commitments and 131 pay your bills. In this situation, you may not fulfill your potential and end up feeling less than fantastic about yourself.
Intermediate Independence: If you have enough money in savings to pay the rent and eat beans for 6 months to a year, you have more freedom, especially if you get laid off or want to start a business in your living room. If someone mistreats you at work, you can stand up to them confidently, litigate, and/or leave. You can seek and wait for a job you really like. You can take a job that doesn’t pay all that well, for a period of time, knowing that you have a pad of cash to cushion you as you move forward to your goal.
Optimum Independence: If you have enough money to live the rest of your life without working for a paycheck, you have a maximum amount of freedom, a multitude of options. Ironically, to be happy, most of the options you’ll consider will involve work. The big difference is that you get to choose the work you do, and it will probably be the work you love to do.
You can probably imagine or have experienced first-hand the Minimum and Intermediate stages of financial independence. It may be helpful, though, to get a picture of the Optimum. So let’s do that quickly.
As a woman of independent means, you have the opportunity to do work that is rewarding—personally and financially. When you find this, you at work will resemble a child at play. You will wake up excitedly looking forward to your day and eagerly anticipating all that it holds. You’re ready to do your work joyfully and, when the end of the day comes, you will only reluctantly set it aside to get some rest and get something to eat. It may or may not make money, but you will be living and working ‘on purpose’ as psychologists say. And it will feel good. This describes the daily life of a woman who is financially independent.
She has a purpose in her life, which she actively works at. She has her spending under control. She has her investments working for her, providing an income she can live on. This is ‘passive income’, a concept we’ll discuss in more detail later. This is true freedom. This is the target to aim for.
Note: if you see a woman who has a great deal of money at her disposal, but she’s never satisfied with the amount of material possessions she has, she is actually impoverished: she constantly needs exterior reinforcement—a new purchase—to feel good about herself. Don’t envy her. She’s suffering. So forget her. Let’s focus now on the Old Money Gal’s financial priorities: financial freedom through the acquisition of 132 money and things of value, the management of your money, and the preservation and growth of your wealth.

Donald Trump govt to ban work permits for spouses of H-1B holders: Transfer will influence not simply Indian techies but in addition US economic system
http://tinyurl.com/y6c4a7hh The Donald Trump authorities has taken step one in direction of banning work permits of spouses of H-1B visa holders. The transfer was first proposed in 2017. In keeping with The Financial Instances, the US authorities issued a discover on 22 Might for the proposed rule that may kick in public consultations to ban the H-4 EAD (Employment Authorisation Doc). H-Four visas are work visas issued solely to very shut or quick relations of H-1B visa holders. It was issued in 2015 by the Obama administration by an government order in order to mitigate the big abilities hole within the US IT sector to be crammed by hiring extremely expert professionals who’re spouses of H-1B visa holders awaiting inexperienced playing cards. The revocation has been beneath evaluate on the White Home’s Workplace of Administration and Funds (OMB) since February.  It’s now for the White Home to take a closing name on it earlier than a proper regulation on this regard is issued and the Division of Homeland Safety can inform a federal courtroom the place a lawsuit on this concern is pending, in response to a PTI report. What does this newest transfer from the Trump administration imply? If this proposal goes by, spouses of H-1B expert professionals who’re given H-Four visas must depart the nation on the finish of their work permits. The H-Four visas are given to spouses of H-1B visa holders and their kids beneath 21 years of age. Since Trump’s election, the H-1B visa has been a focus of debate and has are available in for a three-pronged assault from the Justice Division, Division of Homeland Safety and america Citizenship and Immigration Providers. Representational picture. CNN Information18 Trump who campaigned on an “America First” platform of favouring People for hiring has remained true to his promise by placing in jeopardy jobs and lives of IT professionals from the world over who work within the US. Some analysts have been pragmatic in India concerning the transfer and mentioned that it will not influence many Indians. Just because, says trade veteran TV Mohandas Pai, Indians who’re within the US are extremely certified and so are their spouses. It gained’t be straightforward to search out replacements for them, mentioned Pai. The destiny of 90,000 spouses is in a fragile stability—of which a majority are Indian professionals. The H-1B visa is a non-immigrant visa that permits US corporations to make use of overseas staff in speciality occupations that require theoretical or technical experience in specialised fields. Below the H-1B visa programme, US-based corporations rent extremely expert overseas staff, as much as a most of 85,000 a 12 months. Of those 65,000 are employed from overseas and 20,000 from amongst overseas nationals learning within the US. In February the White Home formally acquired the proposed modifications within the current laws to finish the work authorisation for sure classes of H-1B overseas work visas, in response to a PTI report. Is there trigger for alarm. Not but, says Zeenat Phophalia, affiliate associate, LawQuest that specialises in immigration companies. “It’s too early to say whether or not this may undergo and one should wait and watch”, she mentioned. Nonetheless, Phophalia concedes there will probably be challenges if this proposal goes by. The thought for H-Four visas was to usher in expertise from outdoors to fill within the abilities hole within the US economic system. If the current administration makes that troublesome, it won’t solely influence Indian extremely expert IT professionals inclination to work within the US however extra importantly, additionally influence US financial development. Indian nationals are in demand within the US due to the excessive technical abilities they possess, mentioned an IT analyst. The Indian IT trade is a web creator of jobs within the US and helps almost half 1,000,000 jobs there. In keeping with Forbes, Trump’s administration’s crackdown on high-skilled H-1B immigrants will influence American corporations and the US coverage. The companies supplied by high-skilled Indian IT service professionals have been essential in making the US corporations extra aggressive and rising the nation’s financial development, Forbes mentioned. Opposite to prevalent rhetoric, India-based international IT companies corporations don’t take the vast majority of new H-1B visas. The Indian IT sector acquired round 16 p.c of the 65,000 visas issued final 12 months. The sector will get over 80 p.c of its revenues from the US and Europe whereas the remaining 20 p.c comes from Asia and the home market. The highest 7 India-based corporations acquired solely 2,200 new H-1B petitions for preliminary employment in FY 2018, lower than 2.6 p.c of the 85,000 annual limits for corporations, in response to an evaluation of USCIS information by the Nationwide Basis of American Coverage. Additional, their use of H-1B visas is declining: New H-1B petitions for these high 7 India-based corporations had fallen 43 p.c between FY 2015 and FY 2017. Monster, a world on-line employment resolution, quoted a survey on its website on expertise scarcity within the US. In keeping with IT outsourcer Harvey Nash and auditing agency KPMG’s CIO survey 2018 carried out with over 3,000 expertise leaders, 65 p.c mentioned that US hiring challenges are hurting the trade, in opposition to 59 p.c the earlier 12 months. There’s a ability set hole that exists within the US. There are two methods of bridging this hole—a method is to upskill regionally. One other is to grant a short-term visa for which the H-1B visa is a vital exponent. Nasscom, a commerce affiliation of Indian Info Know-how (IT) and Enterprise Course of Outsourcing (BPO), mentioned it’ll proceed to spotlight the positives of hiring Indian spouses of H-1B visa holders. “There’s a broad admission of the contribution of Indians within the IT trade, of which 75 p.c work with the Fortune 500 corporations and a majority of those are American corporations. They contribute $58 billion to the nation’s gross home product which is far more than the GDP created by six particular person states within the US,” mentioned Shivendra Singh, Vice President and Head—World Commerce Improvement, Nasscom, including that every of those corporations that Indians contribute to will probably be impacted. “Everybody will weigh their points and we [Nasscom] will make a submission. For us, this can be a commerce concern. This is not an immigration concern,” he mentioned.

Cannabis, Marijuana, Weed, Pot? Just Call It a Job Machine
The cannabis industry has become, by some measures, one of the country’s fastest-growing job sectors. Although cannabis remains illegal on the federal level, 33 states now allow its sale at least for medical purposes, ten of them, including California, have legalized recreational use, and as new markets open and capital continues to flood in. Should recreational marijuana use be legalized at the federal level: (1) Yes, (2) No? Why? What are the ethics underlying your decision?
David Dancer is a 48-year-old marketing executive who has worked for big brands like Charles Schwab and Teleflora. A year ago, he got a call from a recruiter for a different kind of company: MedMen, a cannabis retailer that has been called “the Apple Store of weed.” The opening was for a chief marketing officer. He took it.
One of Mr. Dancer’s early projects was a slick two-minute video by the director Spike Jonze that begins with an anecdote about George Washington as a hemp grower, a staple of dorm-room conversation. It concludes with a suburban couple coming home with a bright red bag of legally purchased pot, symbolizing “the new normal” — an ending that, like his own career twist, seemed improbable not long ago.
“It can and should be a part of anyone’s everyday life,” Mr. Dancer said in a recent interview, sounding very much like a man who has been hired to do marketing.
Although cannabis remains illegal on the federal level, 33 states now allow its sale at least for medical purposes. Ten of them, including California, have legalized recreational use. And as new markets open and capital continues to flood in, the cannabis industry has become, by some measures, one of the country’s fastest-growing job sectors.
The jobs range from hourly work at farms and stores to executive positions. They also span the country. Columbia Care, a medical cannabis company that is based in New York and has 500 employees, has indoor farms and manufacturing plants in Massachusetts, Delaware, Florida, Illinois, Arizona and the District of Columbia.
It’s hard to know exactly how many jobs there are in the legal cannabis business. The United States Labor Department collects data from cannabis farms and retailers, but does not provide figures for the industry. Still, listings for cannabis-related positions have rocketed to the top echelon of the fastest-growing-job categories on sites like Indeed and ZipRecruiter.
Julia Pollak, a labor economist at ZipRecruiter, said the company’s data put the number of cannabis jobs nationwide at 200,000 to 300,000. Most of those jobs are on the lower end of the pay scale, consisting of rote agricultural work like plant trimming ($10 to $15 an hour) and “budtenders” (about $25,000 a year), who help customers decide what kind of cannabis they want and then weigh and bag it.
But as the industry expands, there has also been a strong demand for better-paid positions like chemists, software engineers, and nurses who consult with patients about using cannabis for anxiety and other medical conditions.
“The early signs are that this will grow rapidly,” Ms. Pollak said.
A few years ago, navigating the marijuana industry felt like a journey to the fringes of legitimacy. Cannabis-prescribing doctors set up shop in strip malls and record stores, or consulted with patients over brief video chats. Dispensaries were often in barred storefronts, and their employees had to engage in the charade of scolding their prescription-bearing customers if they talked about sharing purchases with friends.
Now cannabis dispensaries occupy brightly lit spaces on prime retail strips that have showcase buds in glass cases and tinctures in small squeezer bottles, along with $80 pot lotions and $20 bars of pot soap. Six months ago, Canada became the first major world economy to legalize recreational marijuana use, and several dozen cannabis stocks — many for companies that are American in all but name but unable to list in the United States — now trade on the Canadian Securities Exchange.
Vivien Azer, a managing director at Cowen in New York, became the first major Wall Street analyst to follow the cannabis industry in 2016. She has since been joined by competitors at Jefferies and Piper Jaffray, and cannabis companies now attend investor events alongside big consumer products companies like Kellogg, Coca-Cola and Procter & Gamble. Ms. Azer projects that the legal United States cannabis market will grow to $80 billion by 2030, a forecast that assumes federal legalization.
Ms. Azer tracked alcohol and tobacco companies, and cannabis seemed a natural extension. “I’m just talking about them as stocks like any other stock that I cover,” she said.
For investors, it’s a two-pronged thesis. The first is that many people like recreational use. The second is that as cannabis becomes more widely used, in particular the strains rich in cannabidiol, or CBD, it is increasingly a therapeutic remedy that people substitute for pain pills, sleep aids and other pharmaceuticals.
The pioneers who brought the industry out of the shadows are being joined by professional managers and executives — “talent,” in corporate speak — who have had careers in other industries. For upper-level managers and executives, companies say they prefer candidates with a background in highly regulated industries like alcohol or pharmaceuticals.
Steve DeAngelo’s website calls him the “Father of the Cannabis Industry” and has a picture of him, smiling, in what pot enthusiasts know as his trademark look of a blue fedora atop graying Willie Nelson braids that rest on the shoulders of his jacket. And there he was in the same get-up on a recent Friday afternoon, standing by a pair of A.T.M.s watching the long line of customers waiting to buy cannabis at Harborside, a cannabis dispensary and farming company that he and a partner founded in 2006 in Oakland, Calif.
Mr. DeAngelo was there to introduce Menna Tesfatsion, his company’s new chief operating officer. Whereas Mr. DeAngelo’s background includes a history of radical politics, interviews in High Times and an arrest for marijuana possession, Mr. Tesfatsion is a lawyer who worked in real estate and property development before getting into the cannabis industry.
“It’s a generational opportunity,” said Mr. Tesfatsion, who was wearing a vest, as Bay Area executives do. “We’re just beginning to scale.”
Mr. DeAngelo said the ability to attract professional managers would go a long way toward determining how well cannabis companies did from here.
“We’re the world’s best experts in cannabis,” he said of the early entrepreneurs. “But we didn’t have much opportunity to learn mainstream business skill sets like finance and compliance and marketing and real estate.”
Eager to shake the image of being high-end drug dealers, cannabis companies have become hypersensitive to anything that sounds unprofessional — hence the insistence on calling the substance cannabis instead of pot, weed or marijuana. Buds are “flower.” Hash is “extract.” Stoners are “high per-capita consumption consumers.”
Bryan Passman, a longtime executive search consultant in Miami, recently started a cannabis-centric recruiting firm. It was originally called The Grass Is Greener Global (The GIGG), but he changed it to Hunter & Esquire because clients told him that they’d prefer he had a more professional-sounding name.
Mr. Passman advises interviewees that if they want to let a prospective cannabis employer know that they partake in the company’s product, they should avoid saying, “I like to smoke pot,” and instead try something like “I have a relationship with the plant.”
The idea, he said, is to be “purposefully subtle.”
Jobs in the industry come with a few caveats. Because cannabis is still illegal from the federal perspective, noncitizens should probably stay away for now, lest they risk their immigration status, Mr. Passman advises. If you’re collecting a federal pension, you should consult a financial adviser to see if it’s at risk. Also: Be realistic about the stigma you might face from employers in other industries.
After a decade in pharmaceutical marketing at companies including Gilead Sciences, Julie Raque recently became the vice president for marketing at Cannabistry Labs, a cannabis research and testing company in Chicago. She was intrigued by the industry and eager to join a start-up, but had to take a pay cut in exchange for company stock — and to accept that her decision might be a one-way door.
“I highly doubt companies would want to hire me back,” she said. “I knew I was about to do something big, and since then Iïżœïżœve not looked back, because I’m having so much fun.”

Increase in Female Inmates Linked to Opioid Crisis, Poverty
Lee Hays waited three hours in a holding cell deep inside the century-old Westmoreland County Courthouse in  Greenburg, Pa., before being brought into a first-floor courtroom.
Hays wore a white long-sleeved shirt under her dark-blue jail uniform as she sat next to her attorney in front of the courtroom railing. It was a week before Christmas.
The 57-year-old woman renewed the plea she had made for 22 months: Get me out.
The room inside the downtown Greensburg landmark had mostly cleared when her name was finally called. Hays stood before the judge. Her straight, light-brown hair fell to her lower back. A rose and vine tattoo marked her wrist. A few friends and her son’s girlfriend sat in the first and second rows, listening intently.
Her attorney suggested that the judge reduce the $500,000 bail that had kept her in the county jail on accusations of being part of a heroin trafficking ring.
“You’ll be heard in February,” the judge said.
Hays broke into tears.
“Love you,” her friends said as a sheriff’s deputy escorted her out in handcuffs. “Hang in there a little bit longer.”
Hays is part of a trend of more women being arrested and jailed in Westmoreland County and across the country.
Nationwide, the female jail population has swelled dramatically since 2000, when about 70,000 women were incarcerated at the mid-year mark, according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS).
By mid-year 2014, that population had grown to nearly 109,000 women locked up in county or municipal jails.
Two years later, according to the most recent data available from BJS, the figure had decreased slightly to 102,000; but that tally was from the end of 2016 when a prison population is typically lower than during the middle of the year.
The Westmoreland County Prison has seen a similar influx.
In 2008, the county lockup in Hempfield saw 824 commitments of women. By 2017, jail officials took in 1,269 — a 54 percent increase. During the same time period, the number of men committed increased 3.5 percent, from 3,440 to 3,560.
“The fact that there’s a 50 percent increase of females is very concerning,” said Judge Christopher Feliciani, who hears criminal cases and helps run the county drug court that started in 2015.
Many county officials were hesitant to point to a specific reason driving such a sharp increase in the number of women locked up locally, citing a lack of hard data. The Westmoreland County Clerk of Courts office does not track the types of offenses charged against female inmates, and the county Prison Board does not break down annual figures on top charges for jail inmates by gender.
Some speculate the increase is the result of the ongoing drug epidemic, whether women are getting hooked or engaging in criminal activity to support their habit.
Since 2015, retail theft and possession of drugs and drug paraphernalia were the top three most common charges for which an inmate was committed to the jail, according to prison board reports.
People who are addicted to prescription opioids or heroin are more likely to be involved with the criminal justice system, according to a study published last year in JAMA Network Open. As the person’s addiction progressed, so did their involvement, researchers found.
“It’s been going up,” said jail Warden John Walton. “I attribute it to the drugs.”
Lower Pay, Higher Burden
About half of incarcerated women in the United States are in local jails. Sixty percent of women in local jails in 2018 were there pretrial, meaning they had not been convicted, according to the Prison Policy Initiative.
One reason could be the fact that women earn less than men, making it less likely they can afford to post bail, said Wanda Bertram, a spokeswoman for the group based in Northampton, Mass.
A woman in jail who is unable to make bail has an average annual salary of about $11,000 prior to incarceration, initiative research shows.
“When a man is in trouble, it’s common for women to rally around them,” Bertram said. “But for women, it’s the opposite.”
It’s unusual for a woman to have bail set as high as Hays, who was one of eight people police arrested in 2017 and accused of being part of a large-scale distribution ring that brought at least 20 bricks of heroin into the county.
Only one other woman arrested in Westmoreland County in 2017 had a bail set equal to Hays’ bail.
“I didn’t know what to think,” she said of when a district judge set her bail at $500,000 — an amount she could never afford.
Being jailed has been a financial struggle. Friends and family are helping Hays pay bills and taxes and keep the heat on at her childhood home in Youngwood, Pa. Her business that once provided pressure washing and painting services is gone.
“I’m from right here, and I have a house and I have a business,” Hays said. “It’s not like I was going to take off.”
Many women remain behind bars because they cannot afford bail — even ones set at low amounts.
County records show that many women remain behind bars because they cannot afford bail — even ones set at low amounts.
Of all women jailed in Westmoreland County in 2017, 426 — or about a third — couldn’t post bail at the time of their arraignment, a Tribune-Review analysis showed. Of those, approximately 300 received a bail amount of $10,000 or less for mostly nonviolent offenses — including half who were accused of possession of drugs or drug paraphernalia.
Regardless of bail amount, three-quarters of them remained behind bars because they couldn’t afford to post bail, records show.
Experts said low bail amounts can be out of reach for some who get arrested.
“$10,000 might be like $5 million,” said Brittnie Aiello, an associate professor in the department of criminology and criminal justice at Merrimack College in Massachusetts. She researches maternal incarceration and punishment by gender.
Mothers Behind Bars
In addition to earning less than men, many women also have added burdens of providing for children.
“A lot of these women are single parents; they don’t have expendable cash,” chief public defender Wayne McGrew said. “These could be women that are just coming into their first time of being involved in the criminal justice system just because of the drugs.”
Experts say the majority of women in jails are mothers, and many have experienced some kind of trauma or abuse and mental illness, more so than male offenders, according to Bureau of Justice Statistics research.
“Women are required to go back and be mothers,” said Tom Plaitano, member of the Westmoreland County Criminal Justice Advisory Board.
“That’s an added burden on them.”
An estimated 80 percent of woman jailed in 2018 to be mothers, with U.S. jails expected to house 150,000 pregnant women last year, the Prison Policy Initiative estimated.
From Jan. 1, 2016, to Oct. 30, 2018, there were 13 instances in which a child was transferred to custody of the county Children’s Bureau after the mother was incarcerated, according to bureau statistics. Between 2013 and 2018, the jail housed 190 pregnant women, many of them addicted to heroin, Walton said.
Incarcerated mothers have fewer resources than male counterparts and can face a tougher road when they get out, Aiello said.
“You have to rebuild your life, which is a huge uphill battle 
 and the kid’s life, too,” she said.
Jillian Jensen knows what that’s like.
The 31-year-old mother was once an inmate at Westmoreland County Prison. She later worked there as a certified recovery specialist, visiting the jail for 18 months to hold group sessions for men and women.
While everything changes when you wind up in jail, Jensen said the negative experience can be used as an opportunity to reach women while the burdens of daily life — kids, work, home — are on hold and feelings that may have been repressed flood in.
Her time behind bars forced Jensen to address her drug addiction and start to get clean.
“Being incarcerated saved my life. Having that fear of going to prison for five, 10 years scared me,” said Jensen, now a stay-at-home mother of three. “I think women need empowered 
 to know that they’re worth more than this lifestyle.”
Breaking the Cycle
During her prolonged stay at the county jail, Hays has seen the same women cycle in and out.
“They’re in here, they seem like they want to do good,” but when they get out, they run from drug rehabilitation or don’t finish it and end up back in jail, Hays said.
“I don’t know that these people have the structure of a job and going to work and feeling good about themselves.”
The county would like to start a re-entry program for inmates, though officials continue to search for funding after being denied for an earlier grant. Such a program could offer services — vocational training, transportation, drug and alcohol treatment and life skills — to select inmates inside the jail and after they are released.
The idea would be to reduce rates of people being incarcerated again and help them better their lives, said Plaitano, who is on the steering committee for the Pennsylvania Re-entry Council.
An easy way to reduce prison population is by changing the cash bail system for certain offenses, such as misdemeanors and other nonviolent charges, advocates say. There are people who can be released and others who are violent and should be jailed, said Cherise Fanno Burdeen, executive director of the Pretrial Justice Institute.
“There’s nothing about sitting in jail 
 that improves your life outcome.”
“There’s nothing about sitting in jail 
 that improves your life outcome,” she said.
The county’s drug treatment court has succeeded in getting high-risk, high-need people out of jail while they work through the program, coordinator Eric Leydig said. Between September 2015 and November 2018, 190 men and 147 women applied to the program — with 66 men and 50 women accepted, Leydig said.
“We try to make jail priority cases,” he said.
Hays tries to stay busy while awaiting her Feb. 25 plea hearing.
She works at the library once a week and mends clothes, sheets and blankets for a couple of hours each day. She attends a nondenominational Bible study and church service every week. While inside, she earned a high school equivalency certificate — even though she said she already had one from the 1970s.
Prior to her drug arrest two years ago, Hays spent time in jail on work release in the early 2000s on a drunken-driving charge and a couple of years before that in a state prison for an aggravated assault charge, according to court records and her recollection.
Renatta Signorini
Now, she just wants to see her two children and three grandchildren again.
“I miss them a lot,” she said, crying.
This is a slightly edited version of an article written by Renatta Signorini, a staff writer for the  Tribune-Review, as part of her project for a 2018 John Jay Rural Justice Reporting Fellowship. Read the full article here.

Home Improvement Tips: Ways to Increase the Value of Your Home
Reasons to Get A Redo
Home improvement projects often start with somebody saying,"Wouldn't it be nice if...?" Typically followed by a desire to get a remodelled kitchen or a room addition to room to accommodate each family member's needs. More frequently than not, dreams and reality do not match, as a result of restricted capital for realizing the fantasy, or limitations on the accessible space. The trick: turning your dreams to reality. Start with a realistic appraisal of your requirements. Homeowners usually think about home improvements for a few of these reasons.
You might feel the need to upgrade something that's outdated. If your kitchen color scheme was ideal a couple of decades past but no longer functions, now might a fantastic time to upgrade it.
Some home improvement projects develop from a direct need to replace broken or ineffective fixtures. When a sink, bathtub, or bathroom has to be replaced, then consider using this chance to perform a makeover on the full toilet.
Tumblr media
If you are planning to sell your house, you will want to make certain to get top dollar out of the purchase. That is great motivation for a few home improvement jobs.
You've determined that staying place and enhancing your house is a better choice than going.
Your family has grown and you will need more room.
Enhancing to Move? or Improving to Stay?
Assess your aims carefully if you are enhancing your home to set it available. Cutting corners can damage your prospects instead of helping them. But do not go forward either. Potential customers may choose to not pay for a few of the extras, like a spa or pool. You are better off maintaining the changes easy.
And keep in mind that buyers who see your house might not share your preferences and might not appreciate the care you took to locate just the correct shade of green paint for the walls.
You might discover that enhancing to market is simpler if you're able to consider it in the potential purchaser's standpoint: What is valuable to the house buyer? Listed below are a Couple of remodeling jobs buyers will find invaluable:
Adding or Fixing a tub
Enhancing the kitchen
Adding a new room
Landscaping
Including a bedroom
Adding or surrounding a garage.
If you are remodelling since you would like to remain in your house, you still need to prevent over-improving it. You're likely going to need to sell it , and even if your home is the very best on the block, then it might be tricky to convince prospective buyers to cover the items you believed significant. When you think about making advancements, remember the value of additional houses in the region. Your house's worth shouldn't be greater than 20 percent over the average, meaning that a $10,000 kitchen improvement job well could be much better investment than a 10,000 spa, particularly if yours are the only home in the region with a spa.
Tumblr media
Home Maintenance vs Home Improvements
It is unfortunate that some home improvement projects are undertaken since something has broken. Replacing a leaky tub could possibly be the very first step to a significant bathroom remodeling: because the tub needs to be replaced anyway, why not do the entire room?
While this may be a valid reason to redesign, avoid highlighting your home improvement jobs on immediate demands. You are going to be better off in the event that you minimize issues with appropriate care. Examine every part of your house at least once each year. Examine the roof, the plumbing, electric wiring, wood stairs, etc.. Whenever know a issue, fix it. Making repairs when you are first conscious of these can help you avert bigger expenses in the future. Remember that maintenance doesn't increase the worth of your house. Normally repairs aren't developments; they're necessities.
Hiring Professionals May Save You Time and Money
It should go without saying that house jobs can be costly, so you could be tempted to handle yourself as a means to save cash. Which might be a wise move for smaller jobs. You won't need to await a person to satisfy your home in their hectic schedule, and you may boast about doing the job yourself.
But unless you are very flexible, important home improvements are much better left to professionals. In case you choose to redesign the kitchen and intend to do the job yourself, are you going to be able to manage the plumbing, electrical, and carpentry work by yourself? . And remember you'll want to complete it fast, since you won't have a kitchen so long as it is a"work in process" and eating three meals per day at restaurants could get pricey. Remember, do-it-yourself projects normally take more time. And you are going to be responsible for obtaining all the required permits and inspections.
Hiring individuals who possess the necessary expertise can help save you money and time, also. By way of instance, those professionals can help you to get a customized look using stock goods, and that may be a substantial savings. Getting something done correctly the first time will provide you worth that lasts for ages.
To locate reputable and qualified home improvement experts, consult with friends, business partners, and acquaintances for recommendations. Always get at least three references, and check them out completely. Also check with the local chapter of the Better Business Bureau or Chamber of Commerce. Their numbers are located at the services section of your telephone book.
As soon as you've found the essential home improvement experts, be sure everybody is in control of the plan, the program, and also the budget, and also find down the details in writing in a signed contract.
Additionally, it is sensible to test on professional certificates and permits, where required, and also be sure the contractors you hire are completely bonded and insured. Your city or city Building Department can supply this advice. And it is extremely important that you ensure contractors carry workers' compensation insuranceif employees are injured at work, you will not be responsible in the event the contractor is insured. Request copies of the insurance certificates. And be sure that either you or your contractor have gotten some necessary licenses before the job starts. Speak to your Regional Planning and Zoning Commission for advice.
Here's a Fast Summary of a Few of the professionals You Might Need to utilize when you redesign your house:
Architect: Architects design homes or additions from the foundation to the roof. If your job will require structural modifications like adding or removing walls, or when the plan is complicated, you will likely require an architect. Since architects can charge an hourly or a flat fee, so be certain that you receive an estimate of their entire price: pulling up the plans for a significant remodeling job may take 80 hours or even longer.
Tumblr media
Contractor: The contractor manages the house improvement project, such as hiring and supervising workers, obtaining the necessary licenses, ensuring inspections are completed as necessary, and providing insurance for work crews. It is almost always a fantastic idea to receive suggestions from a couple of reputable contractors, dependent on the particular details of your job.
Make certain each contractor calls on precisely the exact same plan so you are able to compare their bids more readily. When you have selected a contractor, be sure that the contract specifies you will cover phases. You will usually cover one third once the contract has been signed so the contractor can purchase supplies. The quantity and time for making the payments will be contingent on the size of this undertaking. Don't make the last payment before all of the job is successfully completed, inspected, and accepted.
Interior Designers: Interior designers are experts who will offer guidance on furnishings, wall coverings, colors, designs, and much more. They save you time by narrowing your choice, and conserve money since they generally get professional reductions from their providers. When meeting with a interior designer, make sure you let them know about your own personal style and tastes. Expect to pay anywhere from $50 to $150 per hour, or you might have the ability to negotiate a flat charge of roughly 25 percent of the entire job price.

Will my insurance go up over one speeding ticket?
I live in Pennsylvania and have Traveler's insurance paid by my parents. About 2 days ago I got a speeding citation. The officer who pulled me over said they clocked me going 74MPH in a 55MPH zone. I did not dispute this because I know I was speeding and who could have missed the huge signs with the posted speed limit. Anyway I am only 17 years old. This is the first time I have ever been pulled over or got in any trouble on the road. Prior to this I had a perfect driving record. My dad has not gotten any traffic violations in over 30 years and my mom has never gotten any violations of any kind. My older sister who is 18 (also on our Traveler's insurance) has a perfect driving record as well. Do you think our insurance rates will go up considering this is my first ticket and everyone in my family has a PERFECT record except for the ticket of my dad's?
How does motorcycle insurance work?
So I just wanted to know a little about the pay brackets with motorcycle. Im not talking specific numbers cause I know to just get a quota for that. What I heard is for things like scooters or bikes under 150cc there is a bracket. Then it goes up for anything between 150cc to less than 400cc. Then after that you can expect insurance to go up more when you get into the 600cc supersports and so on. I know im wording this kind of poorly. It makes sense just like how insurance for a Ferrari is going to more than a pickup truck or economy car. I just remember someone saying on a forum that they got a ninja 400r and they were happy that its technically a 399cc engine bucause if it was just a bit more the insurance would have gone up to the next class in motorcycle insurance. I just wanted to know if someone can help explain how this works. I wouldnt mind having something stronger than a 250 or 300 motorcycle but if it means that insurance is going to double or something for a 600 or 650 then I may stray away from it because I still have insurance for my car. Also on a side note how exactly does super sport insurance typically compare to standard bikes? For example maybe a gsxr 600 or CBR 600 vs something like a SV650. Both have similarly sized engines but Im sure 600 super sports are more aggressively tuned and other factors. Lastly my one friend had a Kawasaki. I cant remember what kind but it may have been like a 2002 ninja 600? Anyways his monthly insurance was like less then $20 a month! Does anyone know what kind of coverage he may have had. When he crashed it, insurance paid for the damages to the car he hit and for himself. The bike however, was not covered at all. Is this a real thing or am I remembering it wrong?

If I bought an 80's car, but my parents were the policy holder for the classic car insurance quote, and I am only 18... would I be able to be a named driver? (because you have to be over 21 to qualify for classic car insurance) Also... is this even legal? Thanks""

Should I tell my insurance company that my car was broken into?
My car was broken into last night, between the hours of 9:30pm, and 7am, just parked in front of the condo we live in. Some things of value were taken, ( estimated around $130, or $150 in value...no damage was done to the car, they must've just picked the locks) so I filed a police report this morning...is this something I should report to my car insurance provider? If so, how would filing a report with insurance help me? I'm 19, and have been driving for a little over two years now, my insurance is through AAA. I have had no previous driving offenses on my record, or anything. (This has never happened to me before, so pardon some irrelevent info, here!) before. Do you recommend I file a claim with AAA, or just let the police handle it entirely? When would I need to file a claim by? (like, a deadline, time-wise.)""
Why does a classic car cost more to insure?
My friends got an 02 Acura RSX 5 speed and he pays like $600/month and the car has some engine mods. We are both 17 except he has a couple tickets. I called 3 different insurance companies and they all quoted me around $750 a month. the car in question was a 76 Chevrolet Camaro with an automatic trans and 350ci v8 (though the vin would probably indicate a 267ci v8) why is the newer car cheaper to insure? with a manual trans? kids these days dont appreciate the old cars like I do and stick with Honda and Acuras and those are the ones I actually see getting wrecked. I wouldn't get full coverage on the old car because if it were to wreck i'd just get another as they aren't worth fixing and are a dime a dozen it's not really a rare classic car. I understand that engine size might be a factor. The rsx is lighter and has a smaller engine but the Camaro is much heavier with a bigger engine. Would a z28 cost more? (already upgraded to 350 and upgraded suspension from factory) I didn't ask the insurance on that. What about the Pontiac Firebird of the same years? (70's to '81) it shares a similar setup. When I ask the insurance people how they calculate their rates they say its the area and experience of the driver but me and my friend live in the same area, he's had his license longer but has tickets. His car also costs way more. They could not give me any more info on rates they say they're just there to quote and don't know anything else. So why is this like this?""

What happens when a car insurance company commits fraud? Please help!!?
I was told by my car insurance that my car was totaled, and would only be good for parts. It was in a MINOR flood, and I called to have it evaluated. They said water was in the motor, fuse boxes, everything was ruined supposedly. I knew they were lying, because I had my fiance check it all out, and there wasn't a drop in it except for the carpeting. I told them so, and said I wanted the car back to fix it myself, but the adjustor said they already paid my bank for the damage (not even the full amount, they came up with about 45% of the payoff amount, but it was worth what I owed on it). They said if I wanted it back, I would have to give them $2,700 for the car. I said to hell with it, and had to come up with 2,600 to pay off the remaining part of the loan, and then go buy another car. Last year, I seen my car in the next town over. Same vin number, same paint chipped bumper, same fist mark behind the passenger door. I was mad, but blew it off. Then, I seen it on a buy sell trade site and decided to inquire about the details. The guy bought it for $800 and didn't have to fix anything on it except for what I needed to fix before the flood (window regulator, wheel baring, and new tires). He told me he thought I had committed insurance fraud to get a pay out from them. So, I called my old insurance company, and the lady took all my information down and gave me the adjustor's number, the adjustor's supervisor's number, and the fraud department's number. I called the adjustor, left a message, and then filed a claim with the fraud department. They said to expect a call from them next week. What exactly happens in a case like this?? I don't expect a hefty payout or anything, but still, I've never known anyone who had this happen to them, but I do know people who committed insurance fraud. They get into huge trouble and pay out fines, but what if its the INSURANCE that commits fraud? Thanks!!""

What do car insurance companies use to determine car value?
I just bought a 2008 used car. I bought GAP insurance (pays the difference between what the car is worth and the amount of the loan if the car is totaled) for $600. I have 30 days to cancel the insurance for a full refund (to my finance company). Do insurance companies use Kelly Blue Book retail value, private sale or trade-in value to determine the value they will pay for a totaled car? If they use retail or private sale, I can cancel and be okay if I get totaled, but if it is trade in, I will be $3000 in the hole with no car.""

""Car insurance rates are through the roof and I don't know why, help!?""
I need help with car insurance, I'm having some problems. Okay, I'm a 21 year old single, never married, male and I got my driver's license when I was 18 in March 2008. Now, I know my car insurance rates are high because I'm young and a guy, but here's the problem. I see people who are about my same age who have been driving for the same amount of time as and have no accidents, violations, or tickets like me. My car insurance rates are ridiculously high, I mean insanely high, even compared to others my age. My younger brother even, he's had his license for a year, he's 19, and had 3 speeding tickets and still pays less than me. On average for my car insurance rates, getting quotes online range from about $1500 all the way up to $2500 for 6 months! I used old vehicles, new vehicles, safe vehicles, unsafe vehicles, every kind of car/truck you could imagine and my projected rates are still through the roof. For example, for full coverage with the minimum amounts and highest deductibles, my insurance on a 2010 Mazda 3 would be about $1800-$2300 for 6 months. However, I also got a quote for a 1997 Ford Escort and the same exact coverage is still $1200-$1300. I don't get why my rates are so much higher. A coworker of mine is 21 years old, not married, no tickets, and has had his license since 18 like me, and he has a 2007 Mazda 6 and he only pays about $170 a month, which translates to about ~$1050 for 6 months. I put in my information including SSN on the same company's web site that he uses (Geico) and my insurance rates are about $1700 for 6 months. So my question is why are my insurance rates so high? I have no tickets, no moving violations, no accidents, nothing, and yet insurance rates are so high. I figure SOMETHING has to be on my driving record, but I can't imagine what. How can get a copy of or look at my driving record? I just want to know why my rates are so much higher than other people, male or female, who are about my age and have been driving for about the same amount of time and yet I still pay 2x or 3x as much as me. Please help me out! =)""

Rear Ended - Can I demand insurance?
I was in an accident last month in my brand new Volvo (not even a month old!). I was rear-ended, while I was at a stop sign. Damage is to the rear bumper, pretty bad, looks horrible...especially for a new car! No one was hurt, just shaken! We did not immediately file a police report. We exchanged information, and the the person who hit me told me that they would pay for my repairs out of pocket, and that they didn't want to get the police or insurance involved. We conversed on the phone for a few days, and they seemed like everything was going great, and I was supposed to meet them at their friends auto body shop for the repairs...long story short...they never showed. Bad part now is, I never got their insurance information, just license plate, DL, addresses(basically everything BUT insurance). That same day, I went to the police station and filed a delayed police report. Later that week, I went and got 3 different estimates, and the damage averages out to about $900. I contacted a friend of mine, who is a police officer, and they stated that I can issue a summons to the person who hit me for careless driving, and I will have to go to court. This is basically to show them that I'm not messing around. All I want is my BRAND NEW car fixed!!! I'm NOT going through my insurance because my deductible is $1,000, and the damage is less...not only that...it wasn't my fault! My insurance company advised me to have person who hit me's insurance take care of everything, at no cost to me. Here's what I need to find out...Can I send the person a demand letter, basically stating that I want them to have their insurance take care of everything? I have tried to call them, and they send me to voice mail, so reasoning is not an option any more. I don't really know how to go about this?! I want to try this on my own, and not get an attorney involved. I just want to tell them that if they fix my car, I will drop summons and further proceedings (like small-claims court, which I WILL sue for additional $$ for dealing with all this). But, what if they don't have the money? I have no idea what to do. I live in NJ, hope someone can help!""

Car Insurance Coverage and a DUI Question?
My daughter received a DUI a while back, as she put the car in 'Drive' (instead of 'Reverse') and drove through the side of a restaurant. (closed, thank God!...No people there) She refused the Breathalyzer, and was taken to the ER for about 7 hours. She was given a DUI. This car was titled, registered and insured by me- I am her mother. She is over 30 years old. The insurance has covered to fix the car, but the restaurant has retained an attorney. (I live in SC and have $100,000 property damage on the car) Yesterday, my insurance adjustor called to ask for a release of my daughter's medical records, so they could meet with the restaurant's attorneys and show that she was not drunk. Well, she was drunk, and my daughter's attorney has told me not to release that information, as it is a violation of her rights- she already refused the breathalyzer, etc.Also, she WAS drunk, and this would only release that information possibly to others. Please no rude comments about all of this- I get it!

Best way to grow it indoor
Would you like to grow some of those green things on your own?
Great! This really is a easy beginners guide to growing Marijuana inside.
Never purchase Marijuana again. Grow so discreetly your neighbors won't notice Don't rely on shady personality to provide this to you ever again Growing Cannabis is easy because... It's a powerful, rapid growing plant (grows literally just like a marijuana) Hard to 'screw up'. Cannabis will grow under not so perfect conditions, which makes it ideal for beginners Quick turnaround. Only 4 months from seed into smokeable product Grow Equipment -- What do you Want? You will at the very least a great light.
Other substances are currently potting odor filter, pots, mixture and Fertilizer.
This can be purchased online. I will give you the links here later.
The parts slowly one-by-one:
Light Cannabis needs lots of light. The longer the better!
The better your light, the more you'll harvest.
There are 3 Kinds of lamps used HID lamps, LED Lamps or CFL Lamps.
LED is modern and energy efficient.
They're expensive to purchase.
However power is used by them. What you spend in the beginning you will save.
Cheap LED lights can be found, but they create little little buds and you waste time.
Only quality, more expensive LED lights are able to produce a good harvest.
... that means High Intensity discharge.
It is a little bit of an old-school mild.
It offers you a harvest that is big but uses heaps of electricity.
These lamps are cheap to purchase. Everything you save on initial purchase, you shed over time on electricity.
Purchase HID Lamps here
... means streamlined Fluorescent.
They work for small setups.
You could pay $ 80 for a 150Watt CFL with your own good and reflector if you'd like a small home grow with only 1-3 plants.
Buy CFL Lamps here
Ventilation Cannabis wants atmosphere to grow correctly. Regions that aren't well ventilated tent to develop insects.
You need to eliminate old used air. For example from a window or vent.
The carbon filter will remove the Marijuana smell that is typical so folks won't have to smell it.
Quite setups with only 1 CFL lamp can operate without active ventilation.
You put all that
The Grow Tent The tent:
Retains the bright light inside keeps the plant odor indoors has reflective insights into guide all light into the plants has opening for fresh air to enter at the bottom and used air to exit at the top has openings for electric cables You can purchase a grow tent or also construct a grow box from wood.
Buy Grow tents here
Pots and Soil Fabric Pots are a new development. They work better than solid plastic pots. Since oxygen can reach the roots and water can drain.
For our grow box cloth baskets work nicely.
Buy great quality garden dirt from the garden centre / hardware. Get. It's the basis for your plants that are healthy.
It will have some nourishment in it. That means you will not need to be concerned about fertilizer.
Buy fabric pots and dirt here
Beginners.
Marijuana SeedsWhere to get Marijuana Seeds? They will likely do nicely, if you ever found some in a small bag!
You could also purchase seeds online.
A seed shop will hide the seeds nicely.
I recommend these men in Holland,
Check out my posts about Marijuana Seeds and Marijuana Strains if you prefer.
Healthy seeds possess this tiger marble color. Seeds that are dead are black or hollow.
Indoors is safer than outdoors. You can conceal your setup well within your residence.
Additionally, you won't be dependent on the weather. Cannabis requires lots of sunlight.
Your set will ideally be placed in a closet, a garage, a cellar, the loft or your backyard shed.
Ensure nobody else can access the place. Be very discreet nobody should really be conscious of it. There may people attempt to steal your own harvest even if it's legal where you live.
You'll require a vent for air exchange or electricity and a window.
Germinate a few seeds! How many seeds should you begin?
It depends.
Lets say your grow box matches 10 plants (more about this later).
You would begin 12 seeds if you've feminized seeds, then meaning most of seeds will create plants that are female. (2 in reserve).
You will end up with roughly 50% males and 50% females, in case you have not feminized seeds.
Males don't produce Marijuana, so you may 'delete' them. later.
That means you would ideally start with 20 plants. But that is not realistic since they all won't fit into your box that is grow.
Start with as many as possible. Using seeds than is efficient.
1) We utilize Jiffy peat pellets. Put of them and let them soak until they are fat and big.
Two) Place into each pellet. The seeds must be 1/2 inch heavy (2 cm) and coated with dirt.
Put all of the 10 pellets into some container, or on a plate so.
Leave that.
It won't have to be under mild.
Pour water carefully this wills soak up. Do not pour on the seed or the pellets will wash off.
Your crops will sprout.
Now is the time to switch on the lighting in your grow box. The lights have to be switched on for 18hrs and off to 6hrs. Schedule your timer for it.
Set under the light.
4) They'll grow fast, keep them moist.
Soon roots will grow out on the sides of the peat pellets. Now you need to transplant into a pot with potting mixture.
Transfer the kids to Pots Move it into a pot with garden soil after the plant has popped out of this peat pellet.
Fill up the kettle with soil, make a deep hole and add the peat pellet that is entire with all the plant.
Place it quite heavy in that pot, bury the stem. Follicles will be grown by the stem that is stem.
Gently and gently compress the soil and slowly give a bit of water.
And place beneath your light.
Watering Cannabis grows and drinks a great deal of water.
However, overwatering can destroy those plants very fast.
Young plants need water approximately 1 x per week. Elderly plants 1 x daily.
There is not any set rule on watering. You have to provide water once the soil remains dry.
There would be A trick to touch the soil with the back of your palms. Does this feel cool? It means that there is sufficient water. But if it seems warm you have to provide water.
It means they are dangerously thirsty if your crops have their leaves dangling down. The leaves and give water go back to normal.
Excess water should be able to drain from the pots. That is no problem with the aforementioned fabric pots. Do not leave your plants stand in water, they may drown.
Since an increasing number of chemicals (chlorine, fluoride) have been added into our water supplies, it can be useful to use filtered water.
The Vegetative Phase Your crops are germinated. You have put them. Under you grow lights, they stand. Not too close to get around the leafes burn off.
The light is 18 hours and 6 hours away. You're nice enough to allow your crops sleep and keep them healthy, although some people let you leave the light on for 24 hours.
Water when needed but not too much.
Start Flowering in week 4 Plants look something. Time to create them flower!
The Flowering Stage After about 3.5 weeks, then switch the light to 12 hours on / 12 hours away.
Now the crops will change out of "vegetative' (growth) stage to "flowering" stage. The plant thinks it's time to make seeds and late summer.
Do this with a few steps in between. E.g. a day or two on 15 hours light on.
You will see the buds after approximately 4 weeks of 12/12 hour light. Hurray! But now ... you have to eliminate the males.
The Way to spot a male hormone 4 weeks into flowering you will see buds.
Both females and males have buds. They look differently.
Females are whitish hairs, balls are currently dangling.
You must remove males as soon as you have identified them. Because they are going to pollinate the females. And the women will not create as much yield.
Cannabis is a plant. It grows quickly and needs tons of nutrients.There are particular marijuana fertilizers available.
Fertilizer is mixed with water. And then the crops are watered with that.
You can't give fertilizer straight, undiluted. This would kill the plant.
Fertilizers work. Even tomato fertilizer. However, those which are specifically made for Cannabis, such as FloraNova work better.
To achive best results, you want to use a set of growth and bloom fertilizer.
I clarify precisely how to combine and dose fertilizer within my manual on giving fertilizer here.
Purchase Cannabis Fertilizer here
2 component Marijuana Fertlizer
How often to give fertilizer? You start giving fertilizer when the plants are two weeks old.
This means fertilizer is given 3 occasions by you, and you give water that is pure 1 time .
For instance: If you have plants that are young, they may be watered by you every 2nd day.
You give water with fertilizer Monday, Wednesday, Friday. And you give them H20 that is pure.
So that you prevent additives being built up in the soil that could damage your plants.
I recommend using water to give your plants the best life possible. Read more about that here.
Download the feeding schedule (printable)
You'll require a TDS meter to dose correctly, as shown in the movie above.
Always keep an eye on your plants. Darkish green that they could be hungry and want more food if the leafs aren't nice.
Pest Problems, the bugs are everywhere Bugs do occour even inside where there is apparently no way to allow them to get into the box. They pop up anyhow.
If you become aware of white spots in your own leaves have a good look at the underside.
You may observe bugs moving around slowly.
These are spider mites and treatment is needed by them immediately. Or they will wrap your crops up . And ... it's a wrap.
To combat these militants buy a pesticide that is mild. I Suggest Neem Oil. It derived from plants. You can't use toxins to take care of it.
Mix recommended on the bottle. Wait until the lights in your box that is grow turn off to the night. Then generously spray the entire plant top to bottom. Pay additional attention.
Let it dry until the lights turn back on. This ought to get rid of the pest. Otherwise, it can be repeated by you throughout the upcoming period that is dark.
Purchase Neem Oil pesticide here
Are they mature? It'll take 2-3 month until they are ripe flowering time.
During this time period, buds will grow. All you have to do is give fertilizer and water.
The following photo shows plants which were flowering for 2.5 month. They have buds that are fine but they aren't mature yet.
Ripe:Ripe: Your plants are ripe following 2 -- 3 month of flowering.
You can tell they're ripe when brown have turned.
In addition, the plant expansion will have slowed down.
They'll odor along with the buds will be compact and hard.
If you have a microscope you could check the trichomes (sticky, freezing looking items covering the buds) for their own color.
Plants harvested quite late tend to get a effect. Plants harvested seem to get a more activating high.
Buy the right Marijuana Grow Equipment
Harvest! Harvesting is easy. Cut the entire plant just.
The hardest part is done.
The plant has been grown by you and there's not much that can go wrong today.
Avoid touching the sticky buds. Anything stuck into your fingers is missing.
Currently a lot of work starts. Its time for ...
Trimming the buds Use small scissors (nail scissors) to remove leaves from the buds.
The bin can be gone into by those leaves that are huge. They have no active ingredients. Smoking them would make you cough.
Then there will be the smaller, icing-covered leaves in between the buds. Cut them (most of them) outside but retain them.
They're smokeable. However, they are used to make hash or butter.
The cleaner your buds are trimmed by you, the better they will look like. And the nicer they'll be to smoke.
Dry gradually, but not too slow.
For instance, a fantastic way is spreading your buds on paper and leaving them into a room. They will dry slowly.
It's a terrible idea to dry the cloth or in an oven. It will taste just like hay after.
But if they dry they might catch.
Drying them will make them create a smell and taste. Slow drying will make them more straightforward to smoke.
Your buds should feel dry after around seven days. Then you set them into a big plastic bag over night (don't compress).
On another morning they'll feel dry. Leave em dry for another 12 hrs and set them into the plastic bag.
Gently slow down the drying process.
Buy the Ideal Marijuana Grow Equipment
At some stage the material is dry to the stems to snap. They ought to make a good 'crack' sound.
This is the opportunity to quit drying. You do not want to make it 100 dry. Because some slight humidity is needed for the healing process.
You smoke a few and can now go. But it will not have its entire strength.
Curing. Freshly dried Marijuana can be consumed. It will have an impact.
However, it could be a good deal better.
On the subsequent 2 -- 4 month or so, chlorophyll wills decrease and boost THC + other substances that are active.
Meaning the substance gets easier to consume and potent in its effect.
Curing is performed in glass jars. Glass is impartial, plastic could leave its taste on the buds.
Put into glass jars and keep them in a dark place. Open the jars every couple of days to let in some oxygen.
This process is a bit like wine or cheese making. There are no rules. Make your own.

How Afterpay's Nick Molnar taps into Millennials' spending habits and wallets
Anthony Eisen was working late into the night in the receiving area of his Rose Bay home in Sydney's eastern rural areas, rebuilding the advantages of the Guinness Peat Group, when he saw one more night owl beavering ceaselessly in the receiving area of a house over the road.
It was Nick Molnar.
It was 2012, and the business understudy at the University of Sydney was stuffing bundles with adornments from St Michel Internationale, the store keep running by his folks, Michele and Ron, at Wynyard Station.
The inquisitive Eisen moved toward Molnar on the pathway one morning.
"He truly came up to me while I was taking a heap of boxes to the mail station and stated, 'I see your light on consistently. I don't intend to pry, yet what do you do?' " Molnar reviews.
Notice
The youth clarified that he was disseminating the family adornments on eBay. Eisen was transfixed and chosen to open his business systems to the youthful computerized sales representative; the very much associated bargain producer was sure Molnar had what it took to end up an effective business visionary.
Eisen acquainted Molnar with John Wylie, the prominent head of corporate warning at budgetary warning and resource administration firm Lazard.
Wylie speedily guided Molnar to Mark Carnegie, the Paddington-based financial speculator. Following a half year of tutelage via Carnegie, Molnar was profiting offering arm ornaments and rings for $150 a fly than he would have done filling in as a first-year speculation investor at Lazard.
Carnegie revealed to Molnar he had an opportunity and ought to get out and fabricate a business. To give him certainty to take the jump, Carnegie said he'd hold Molnar's activity for a half year, on the off chance that things didn't work out.
Lazard supervisor John Wylie acquainted a youthful Nick Molnar with financial speculator Mark Carnegie.

Molnar never returned. He didn't need to. After five years, he's the CEO of Afterpay, a retail installments benefit venerated by Millennials. Afterpay's market capitalisation on the ASX had swollen to $1.7 billion toward the beginning of March. Molnar, now 28, has been launch onto the Financial Review Young Rich List: he and Eisen each possess 15 for every penny of the value.
"I revealed to him he would suck as a speculation financier, thus clearly be a star as a business person," Carnegie says. "I said to him: 'For what reason accomplish something soul-devastating as opposed to accomplishing something few individuals are put on earth with the ability to do?' "
So Molnar left MH Carnegie and Co in Underwood Street, and chose to get off eBay and construct something genuine. In 2014, he arranged an arrangement with US-based Ice.com, and was soon circulating $2 million of gems a year through iceonline.com.au.
Notwithstanding the development, Molnar was scratching his head around one baffling metric: out of 100 guests to the site, just a single made a buy. That made them ask an indistinguishable inquiries from different retailers attempting to get by in the ferocious, Amazon-ruled universe of online business: how might I change over more guests to deals? How might I drive the normal request up? How might I build rehash buys?
Investor Mark Carnegie coached Nick Molnar for a half year.

Eisen and Molnar made up for lost time a ton in the principal half of 2015, frequently around Eisen's kitchen table.
Key mental understanding
Molnar was resolved that Millennial clients would be quick to pay for things in portions, to smooth out their installments. Discussions with peers uncovered an antipathy for credit.
New advances could succession installments, giving moment satisfaction to the client while additionally speaking to their feeling of limitation.

"I have this thought," Molnar said to Eisen. "It's a client driven administration for Millennials that can enable them to spend dependably and furthermore enable retailers to offer more stuff.
"It's called Afterpay."
It is a misleadingly basic idea. Remarkable in the commercial center when it was propelled in mid-2015, Afterpay depends on an understanding into the brain research of the spending mind: Millennial clients give off an impression of being all the more eager to purchase on the off chance that they can pay $50 four times instead of paying $200 once.
Afterpay pays the retailer for the merchandise and takes a fourth of the price tag from the client, whose charge or Visa has been connected up to the administration (85 for each penny are platinum cards). The client pays the staying seventy five percent in three portions paid fortnightly, for a six-week installment cycle.

On the off chance that the client pays on time, they don't pay anything more than the sticker price. Expenses are charged for late installments. The retailer pays an expense of between 4 for each penny and 6 for every penny of the deal to Afterpay.
"It was established on a conviction that on the off chance that you could separate the cost and give individuals greater adaptability, it would be seen as a rebate," Molnar says. "Perhaps it was as basic similar to a Millennial; I just knew it felt right."
The intrigue free model has been massively well known; development in client and retailer numbers has been touchy. In under three years, Afterpay has pulled in 1.5 million buyers, and 12,000 retailers. Annualized deals are $2 billion, and developing. The organization's name is presently utilized as a verb.
An astounding 25 for every penny of all online retail attire exchange volumes in Australia – and 8 for every penny of all online retail – is being paid for utilizing the stage.
While its foundations are in design, Afterpay is growing to other retail areas, from products to administrations, and from web based business into physical stores. Its cell phone application, propelled in 2017, has been downloaded by 1 million individuals, making a group of customers who are progressively utilizing Afterpay as a catalog to figure out where to shop.
Afterpay makes around 80 for every penny of its income from retailers while 20 for each penny originates from late charges. Late payers are closed out of the stage. So dissimilar to rotating charge card offices, once clients are late, they can't amass more obligation.
"Customary fund is based on profiting from the client," Molnar proceeds. "Be that as it may, we said we needed to be unashamedly client driven, so we will charge the retailer an expense. What we do isn't about fund, it is about retail."
Afterpay says more than 15 for every penny of all Australian Millennials, the companion now matured in the vicinity of 18 and 36, are its clients. They seem faithful; more than 90 for every penny are coming back to utilize the administration every month. One client, a female in her 20s, says she utilizes Afterpay to pay for the odd extravagance and it improves her vibe about making a buy. "I can bear the cost of a $200 dress," she says. "I can't legitimize it."

Afterpay touches base when other retail installments tasks at the purpose of offer are multiplying. Other "purchase now, pay later" contributions, for example, Openpay and ZipPay, are in the market, while there are likewise new credit items, as ZipMoney.
Then, worldwide innovation monsters, for example, Apple, Samsung and Google's Android are putting forth advanced wallets connected to installments cards on their cell phones. Worldwide card plans from Visa and Mastercard are lifting advancement, as Chinese internet business monsters, for example, Tencent and Alibaba additionally push into installments.
However, while a variety of new installments alternatives are developing, it has been Afterpay's quick development that is making prepared financiers apprehensive, as they worry about another brand remaining between both their retail and shipper clients.
"Afterpay's development has recently been extraordinary, it's extremely overwhelmed us," says head of business saving money at one of the enormous four banks. "We have been endeavoring to work out what is driving it."
Conveyance and results
At the point when BOSS visits Afterpay in the in vogue Sydney suburb of Surry Hills on a Friday evening in February, the Red Hot Chili Peppers are pumping on a sound framework as an arrangement of Technics vinyl decks sits sit out of gear in the focal point of the open-design office. The lobby stairwell is decorated with spray painting.

Neighboring is a mass of motivational qualities about diligent work and client anti-extremism. The glass mass of the meeting room is embellished with many logos of a portion of the greatest retail marks in the nation.
Afterpay has 50 staff in Sydney and another 200 in Melbourne; Molnar says culture is a result of conveyance and results.
