As societal expectations continue to evolve, one question increasingly haunts many women: Can I afford to be single? It's not just a financial burden, but an emotional and existential one, exacerbated by a modern culture that celebrates independence and casual relationships while often leaving women unfulfilled.For decades, the feminist movement has championed the notion that women do not need men for financial or emotional support, promoting autonomy and independence. This ideology, while empowering in many ways, has also fostered a new kind of challenge for the modern woman. In the pursuit of careers, financial independence, and sexual liberation, many women now find themselves juggling the high costs—both tangible and intangible—of living alone, alongside the uncertainty of casual encounters in a hook-up culture.The cost of living, especially in urban areas, has skyrocketed, and single women are feeling the pinch. Without a second income or the shared financial responsibilities that come with a partnership, many women are struggling to keep up with rent, bills, and savings. For women who choose to remain single or delay long-term relationships, the price of independence can be crushing.Some may argue that men, too, bear the cost of living independently, but societal expectations still place the financial burden of "singlehood" more heavily on women. A generation ago, traditional marriages offered a kind of financial safety net. Now, with that safety net removed, women face a daunting question: How do I balance my career aspirations, independence, and financial security without the stability of a long-term partnership?For many, the answer has led to a shift in priorities—more hours at work, fewer moments for personal connection, and a growing reliance on short-lived relationships that, by design, never fully satisfy.Sexual liberation has granted women the freedom to explore their desires without the constraints of marriage or long-term commitment. Casual sex, one-night stands, and "friends with benefits" are now normalized, celebrated even, as expressions of empowerment and autonomy. But for many women, these experiences come at a hidden cost.The reality is that casual encounters, while free from strings, often leave women feeling more disconnected. Sex without emotional attachment, once a badge of modern independence, has left many feeling emotionally unmoored. It's one thing to embrace sexual freedom; it's another to find oneself repeatedly engaging in encounters that lack depth or meaningful connection.The stigma surrounding women who prefer not to settle down in traditional relationships has begun to erode, but the deeper emotional consequences are often ignored. As one-night stands and temporary flings become more common, many women report a sense of emptiness after the fleeting gratification fades. Is this truly what feminism intended—sex without intimacy, relationships without commitment?While feminist ideology has undeniably opened doors for women in the workplace, academia, and politics, its impact on personal relationships is more complex. The rhetoric that a woman "doesn't need a man" for support may empower some, but it can also lead to the undervaluation of long-term companionship and emotional fulfillment.The pursuit of independence has created a paradox. Women are told they don't need a man to be happy, yet many find themselves yearning for deeper connections that casual relationships and fleeting encounters simply cannot provide. Feminism has offered many women the tools to succeed professionally, but at what cost to their personal lives?From a man's perspective, the situation seems fraught with contradictions. Modern society pushes women toward a version of success that often prioritizes independence over companionship. The unintended consequence? Many women now face a profound sense of isolation, even as they outwardly project empowerment.The feminist movement's push for autonomy has certainly expanded the choices available to women, but it has also raised difficult questions. How can women reconcile the financial pressures of living independently with the desire for meaningful relationships? Is casual sex truly liberating, or is it a temporary distraction from deeper emotional needs?As society continues to evolve, perhaps it's time to reconsider what empowerment truly means. Independence and self-sufficiency are crucial, but so are emotional fulfillment and long-term partnership. In the end, it's about balance—and modern feminism may need to acknowledge that the pursuit of happiness cannot be achieved solely through financial or sexual freedom. Sometimes, the strings we try so hard to cut may be the ones that tie us to what we need most.Article mentioned: I Don't Know if I Can Afford to Be Single https://www.cosmopolitan.com/sex-love/a62337201/cant-afford-to-be-single/Contact KOP for professional podcast production, imaging, and web design services at http://www.kingofpodcasts.comSupport KOP by subscribing to his YouTube channel and search for King Of PodcastsFollow KOP on Twitter or Facebook @kingofpodcastsListen to KOP's other programs, Podcasters Row… and the Wrestling is Real Wrestling Podcast and join my Supporters Club for any of these podcasts from the website.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/depraved-and-debaucherous--5267208/support.
The Truth About Off-Market Properties and Valuation Shortfalls Welcome back to another episode of Talk Property To Me! I'm your host, Brad East, alongside my co-host, Aaron Downie. In today's episode, we dive deep into the intricate world of property valuations, a crucial aspect for anyone looking to buy, sell, or invest in real estate. We kick off the discussion by introducing the various types of property valuations that lenders utilize. From Automated Valuation Models (AVMs) to desktop and curbside valuations, we break down how each method works and the implications they have on property value assessments. We highlight the importance of understanding these methodologies, especially when it comes to pulling equity for investment purposes. One of the key points we address is the difference between a property's market value and its purchase price. We emphasize that lenders often rely on third-party valuers to mitigate the emotional biases that can lead buyers to overspend. This leads us into a discussion about the subjective nature of property value, where we explore how personal circumstances can justify higher prices for certain buyers. As we navigate through the episode, we touch on the common pitfalls in property valuations, particularly when it comes to off-the-plan purchases. We share insights on how relying solely on real estate agents' guide prices and median prices can lead to overvaluation and disappointment. We stress the importance of conducting thorough research and performing a comparative market analysis to arrive at a realistic property value. We also delve into the role of buyer's agents and the concept of off-market properties. While off-market opportunities can be appealing, we discuss the nuances of the current market, particularly in Newcastle, and whether these properties truly offer better value or simply serve as a sales tactic. Throughout the episode, we provide practical tips for listeners on how to approach property valuations. We encourage them to attend open homes, observe market trends, and understand the significance of inventory rates and days on the market. In closing, we reiterate the importance of being well-informed and cautious when it comes to property valuations. We remind our audience that while market value is often what someone is willing to pay, it's essential to justify any significant deviations from the median price in the area.

Hi there, I'm Walter Monteiro with The Maximum Results Team at ReMax Real Estate Centre. If you've recently signed a buyer representation agreement, you might be wondering, Who owes the commission to my buyer's agent? Well, let's break it down for you. When you sign a buyer representation agreement, you're essentially formalizing your working relationship with your buyer's agent. This agreement means your agent is dedicated to helping you find the perfect home and negotiating the best possible deal on your behalf. Now, you might be concerned about how much this will cost you. The good news is that in most cases, the commission owed to your buyer's agent is typically paid by the seller, not you. Here's how it works. When a seller lists their home with a real estate agent, they agree to a commission fee, usually a percentage of the final sale price. This commission is then split between the seller's agent and the buyer's agent. So, when you purchase a home, the commission for your buyer's agent is usually covered by the seller as part of the overall commission agreement. This allows you to benefit from professional representation without having to pay out-of-pocket for the service. However, it's important to be cautious. Your buyer representation agreement may state that if there is any shortfall in the commission paid by the listing agent, you, the buyer, could be responsible for covering the difference. Shortfalls can happen due to unforeseen issues, such as liens on the property or penalties and fees on the seller's mortgage that come to light at the last minute. These issues can reduce the funds available to cover the agreed-upon commissions. To protect yourself, consider inserting a clause in your offer that states the buyer's agent will be paid from the proceeds of the transaction, but this amount will be held back from the seller by your lawyer. This ensures the commission is paid as agreed and protects you from unexpected costs.
New Zealand's health and safety performance seems to be dire still. In 2013, an independent taskforce identified three key failures in the country's health and safety system in the wake of the Pike River tragedy. Eleven years later, Newsroom reveals that despite knowing these faults, not much has changed. Legislation continues to be poorly implemented with insufficient follow through, the primary regulator is still under resourced, and there is still poor coordination across the agencies tasked with injury prevention, they said. Mike Cosman, Chair of the New Zealand Institute of Safety Management, told Kerre Woodham that he was part of that taskforce, and sadly only about half the job was done. He said that whilst other countries we would normally compare ourselves to —Australia, the UK, Europe— have continued to improve, our performance has staggered along. It's not getting worse, Cosman said, but it's certainly not getting better at the speed that you would hope. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The workforce shortage and war for talent continue. One area that's being hit particularly hard is the technical workforce, which is facing headwinds such as rapidly advancing technological requirements and antiquated perceptions. Despite growing demand across industries, from energy to manufacturing and beyond, there's a widening gap between available positions and qualified candidates. And the engineer-to-technician ratio is widening, even though the need for critical hands-on skillsets is growing as well. Parminder Jassal, CEO and co-founder of Unmudl, a skills-to-jobs marketplace that connects learners and employers via a coast-to-coast network of leading community colleges, joins ASME TechCast to discuss these challenges and how industry, the public, and educators can turn this trend around.

Schools around the region are dealing with serious budget shortfalls. The Northshore School District says it's $26 million in the red, and Seattle Public Schools is reporting a more than $100 million gap in funding. Making up that money is no easy task – and in many cases, the scarcity means cuts to programs students and parents hold dear, like AP and music classes.
School districts, as well as colleges and universities are facing major funding challenges, including Cleveland Metropolitan School District which is dealing with a $140 million deficit.
On this episode of the CMAJ Podcast, Dr. Catherine Varner, deputy editor of CMAJ, sits in for Dr. Blair Bigham and joins Dr. Mojola Omole to explore two articles published in the journal that highlight troubling findings concerning the treatment of opioid use disorder.They begin with a study that revealed significant gaps in treatment for opioid overdose patients, where only 5.5% received opioid agonist therapy within a week of their hospital visit. This comes five years after the release of guidelines for opioid use disorder management in Canada, which recommended starting opioid agonist therapy, specifically Suboxone, in patients with opioid use disorder. One of the paper's co-authors, Dr. Jessica Kent-Rice, a PGY5 resident in emergency medicine and toxicology fellow at the University of Toronto, dissects the complexities of treating opioid use disorder in the emergency department and makes a passionate plea for physicians to increase their prescriptions of these life-saving therapies.Transitioning to the second article, the hosts examine the presence of xylazine, a veterinary sedative, in the illicit opioid supply. Dubbed the "zombie drug" due to its effects on people's skin and prolonged effects during overdose, xylazine is raising alarm bells among emergency physicians. However, the article's co-author, Dr. Peter Wu, an internist and clinical pharmacology and toxicology physician at the University Health Network in Toronto, advocates for a balanced response. He cautions against excessive concern, noting that treatment continues to revolve around providing supportive care.Join us as we explore medical solutions that address the urgent need to change healthcare.

Imagine a world where a call for change spirals into an unexpected crisis. City officials who once championed defunding the police, are now scrambling to restore order as crime rates surge across the nation. Join us as we engage in a critical discussion on the repercussions of defunding the police and the complex predicament that has surfaced in its wake. We dissect the intricate dynamics of the decisions made post-George Floyd's murder, the impact of Proposition 47, and the surprising consequences of lowering police recruitment standards. Teetering on the edge of a public safety crisis, cities are grappling with the need for police reform versus ensuring public safety. This episode takes a close look at Washington DC and Mayor Muriel Bowser's plea for increased police presence and even National Guard assistance. We also delve into the growing need for social workers amidst a spiraling drug crisis, pondering whether this alone suffices in providing protection in volatile situations. The 'defund the police' movement's impact on the morale and recruitment of police officers is also put under the microscope and further debated. A deep dive into the societal impacts of these pressing issues, this episode is a riveting exploration of what the future of policing in America could potentially entail.Support the show
