Advice for someone that you think could benefit from what you have learned Research Essay Things to remember about the video we watched about Min Lwin: Min Lwin discovered that even though he had obtained a good job, because he was living on his own everything cost more. He said, So no more roommates so I cant split any of the expenses like cable and internetMin had to start from scratch. I didnt have any furniture when I came ineverythings more expensive in the city. In this segment of Your Life, Your Money, we heard Donald Faison and Min Lwin discuss being on their own for the first time and trying to manage their money. Were going to put ourselves in Mins shoes for the next few days and investigate where to live and all of the expenses that go with finding an apartment by yourself. Remember as you do this activity, like Min, you dont have any roommates to share expenses with. After you gather your information, youre going to put it all together in a research paper. You should search newspapers, want ads, and free internet sites to investigate the cost of an apartment in at least two neighborhoods/areas locally. You might also check bulletin boards in neighborhood community centers and stores that post real estate listings. Once you have selected at least two apartments that look interesting to you, gather information and investigate the sites thoroughly. Data you collect should include (but is not limited to) details such as: Rent Typical utility costs (for example: cable or dish TV, water, electricity, heat) Security deposits Renters and disability insurance costs Cell or landline phone determine monthly costs of both If major kitchen appliances and laundry facilities are not included, cost of such appliances and their installation Proximity to your work and/or school site how much will it cost to get to and from the apartment is it close to bus lines? Is parking included in the rent, or is there an additional fee? Policies regarding pets and/or children is there an extra security deposit? After completing your research prepare a research paper, using APA or Chicago style that examines and explains both the processes you used to reach your final decision about which apartment you can afford, as well as your actual choice. Participants should compare the various apartments, using graphic displays such as charts and graphs, and include a wellreasoned conclusion. You will also prepare an oral report to share your information so that everyone in the group can learn from each other. Michelle Singletary says, You should ask yourself, is this a need or a want? She also advises us, Every penny ought to have a purpose. What did you find out by doing your research? Can you afford the apartments you were looking at? Do you want or need cable TV? Is renters insurance a want or need? Would being able to walk to work be better than spending pennies on bus fare? All participants should use their reports and peer feedback to determine if what they want is what they can afford.
