Hello, I am a 15 year old boy currently residing in Florida. Ever since I was able to talk, my father has been pushing me towards what he envisions as "success" for me. That plan includes going to a nice college in state for my Bachelor's degree, and then venturing into the big apple to attend New York University for law school. He has told me that I have to get a good understanding of New York City long before I ever move there or I will be lost. So, I've been looking at some apartments in the Bronx, and on the Realtor site, there is an option to look at the possible mortgage rates. The options being:. . 30 Year Fixed. 15 Year Fixed. 5 Year ARM. . and my questions are:. . What is the difference between a fixed and ARM mortgage?. . Once the term is over (30, 15, or 5 years) is over, do you simply own the property? Or is a mortgage . something you renew?. . And, if the previous is so, then why are all of the rates so similar in the monthly payment? Shouldn't the 5 year be very expensive, and the 30 year very inexpensive?. . I'm sorry for the bombardment of questions, I just want to get a good idea of this all before I'm out of college and completely oblivious to what needs to be done when one is living on their own.. . Also, for anyone who has lived in New York City before, what would you say the average monthly expenses total up to? That would be things such as food, water, electric, cable, internet, etc. Would a first year attorney be able to make it by themselves, or would they need to have a roommate, or possibly roommates?

My boyfriend and I are due to have a baby in June. I have children with different last names already. We have decided together we are not getting married at this point in our lives. I want to give the baby his last name but only if I can have it too. How do you change your last name without getting married or divorced?.

hey!. . can you please help me do my application letter.. or anybody can send me a sample of lawyers application letter?. . thanks.

In my state, when you "disolve" this business, it's split 50/50. Partnership ended - very business like. That doesn't change the fact that people are emotionally involved and hurt when this happens, but from a piece of paper, that's all that an outsider can see.. . In my experience, people marry because they are in love and want to be bonded to the other person for their lifetime. Hope that helps a little. :o)

Repetition and run-on sentences are common errors. Lose the commas and turn the first two sentences into four. Give your teacher's name once. Also, do a search on the professional in question as well as his company if you know it. It might help you with what to write and will definitely help during the interview process. Don't make too much effort to impress with it, but do show that you've done your research.

who can give some templates of cover letter?Urgent need.?
