You’re free and on your own!
Description
I want to get my own place!
Something every new graduate says. It means freedom from living under someone else’s roof. Freedom to make decisions. No curfew. And being able to leave clothes lying all over the floor.
It also comes with the responsibility of paying the bills, doing laundry, shopping for food, and probably living with one or more roommates.
This course covers what to consider when getting a first (or first-teenth) apartment. Especially when living with someone else – because there will be arguments. Often involving money. Or food. Or guests. How will you handle them?
By preparing ahead of time, living on your own becomes much easier (and less costly).
