2.)You could lose your apartment and you could lose your job if you're late to work mulitple times.
3.)You could manage your money and make sure you have enough for rent and utilitys each month. You could invest in your own car or make sure you wake up on time everyday to ride the metro.

Brian Butler said...

1. One risk with this new situation is that although your job is only six miles away, there is heavy traffic in D.C. so getting to work on time is a concern.

2. If this risk is not prepared for, it could result in repetitive late appearences at work.

3. Preparing for this risk could be waking up early enough to give you a comfortable amount of time to commute to work.

1. Some of the new responsiblites in life you have are paying for your necesseties(such as food,water, shelter) and taking care of yourself.

1. Some of the risks now taken are the possibility of theft, you must show up to your job on time which can be hard in downtown DC, and you have to pay rent on your apartment.

2.You stand the possibility of losing your job, or your apartment.

3. My risk management plan would be to know a good, fast route to work and have a good savings plan to help pay for the apartment.

Dan Nista said...

1. One risk is having to get up early to beat the traffic everyday to get to work and another is to make sure your on time to work.
2. You'll lose time and sleep by leaving the house earlier and possibly have to skip breakfest due to time. Your car could break down and it could cost a lot of money to fix.
3. The risk management plan will be to take of your car and make sure everything is all right with it, and set an alarm in the morning to get you to work on time.

Preston Long said...

1.) YOu now have to provide for your self and find ways to work every day. You also need to make a living and use the degree that you have just earned.

2.) You could stand to lose some of the benefits of owning your own home and having things to yourself. Owning an apartment takes away from some of your freedom.

3.) I will plan to make sure that I always know when the bus will be coming to the nearst stop, and always keep my place tidy so that the owner will not have a reaosn to kick me out.

1) Some risks of the new life could include: being late to work, losing the job, not being able to pay bills, forgetting to shop for food, getting robbed, etc.
2) Income, home, and happiness can all be lost from these risks.
3) To avoid losing the job, I could set several alarms so I'm not late in the morning, setting up a budget with ample bill money, and making sure the apartment is locked every time I leave.

1.You now have to pay for your own appartment. Depending on the form of transportation that you decide to take to work, you could have to pay money for a bus or gas. You have the risk of losing your job and not being able to support yourself. You have the risk of being robbed at your appartment. There are also the other various risks of being injured on or even off the job that could influence your life greatly.
2. Most of these risks relate to the lose of money in one way or antoher.
3. The risk managment should be to; work hard so that you don't lose your job. get renters insurrance so that your appartment will be safe. Should have car insurance if that is the form of transportation that you should choose to use.
