VACATION HOME FOR RENT?

WAIT ON IVF?

Dear Dave,

Dear Dave,

What is your opinion of buying a vacation home, then renting it out when you’re not there?

My wife and I are on Baby Step 2 of your plan. We have about $60,000 in debt left to pay off before we’ll be debt-free, and a household income of $140,000 a year. We have one child, but we would like to expand our family. We would have to do this using in vitro fertilization. We’ve talked to a doctor, and he’s given us a ballpark figure of about $20,000 for the procedure. Should we wait until we’re debt-free to have this done?

- J.P. Dear J.P., I see nothing wrong with it, as long as you’re buying with cash and you’re also debt-free. A vacation home is a wonderful “extra” as you start building wealth. Remember though, it’s still basically a very large, very expensive toy. In most cases it will go up in value, and if you rent it, it might become something of a money maker for you. But here’s another side to vacation home rentals. You’ll probably make some money, but in most cases there will be several weeks during a year when it sits empty. You’re not going to get rich renting it out. So, they’re not really great investment properties. What you’re talking about is more of a plan to offset the annual costs of your toy. If you look at it that way, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. If you’re determined to go this route, be ready to deal with spills on the carpet and damage from your guests, along with general maintenance and repairs. There’s always something that needs attention when you own a property. But if you can handle all that emotionally and financially – and you’re not looking for it to be a big-time investment that will make you rich – you’ll be fine. —Dave

-Jim Dear Jim, Babies are wonderful, important things. Having kids, even the thought of having kids, is a big emotional deal. But sometimes it can cause people to change their financial plans and directions. I would urge you not to accept the first opinion and pricing model you receive on something like this. I’ve heard prices of $35,000, but that includes as many attempts as it takes until your wife becomes pregnant. I’ve also heard of single attempts priced at $7,500 each. There are all kinds of options and guarantees, because they understand someone who is willing to do this really wants a baby. If I’m in your shoes, I’m not accepting the idea that there’s one approach and one pricing structure to all this. I would explore other options, as far as doctors and clinics are concerned. Then, with your income, you could consider taking off a couple months from paying down debt and put some money toward the IVF. If it doesn’t work pay off a little more debt, pause the debt payoff, and try for a baby again. Take some time, learn a little more, and go from there – always using cash for the endeavor. God bless you two!

Increasingly, companies are making products accessed over the Internet, and it makes those products vulnerable to malicious attacks. Today, cyber security extends beyond keeping locally networked computers safe. It means keeping worldwide networks safe. The need for well-trained cybersecurity professionals has grown and will continue to increase as smart technology increases the use of the Internet.

MORE THAN JUST COMPUTERS Cyber security requires unique skill sets because it's concerned with more than one system of networks. You might think working in cyber security you'd be dealing only with the protection of information or money. But we've learned that any networked devices need to be protected, regardless of what kind of data they are transmitting. For instance: •

In aviation, the GPS systems need to be secure, and if the plane has an onboard entertainment link, it also needs to be protected.

NO SHORTAGE OF JOBS The U.S.. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports the job field of Information Security Analysts is expanding "much faster than average" with a growth rate of 37%. Cybercrime threatens every industry and the need for people to fill those jobs is growing rapidly.

CURIOUS, INVENTIVE, DILIGENT PEOPLE NEED APPLY Cyber security specialists need a unique skill set and specific certifications to get into the field. To enter into this field, you should have a strong interest in technology, and be willing to learn about new technologies and strategies. You should be comfortable with hardware, enjoy working with it, and discussing it with co-workers. Most work is done in offices and computer labs and requires a lot of thinking and problem-solving. The jobs in cyber security exist in both the private and the public sector. As a trained specialist you could find yourself working for finance companies, health care management, or even governmental agencies such as the CIA, NSA, or FBI. If you're looking for a way to put your interest in computers and technology to work you should definitely explore this growing profession. Begin with a Google search for classes in your area or on-line classes. Some excellent online sources are: • • •

SERVICE, EDUCATION, LATITUDE, AND FLEXIBILITY -

The Four Pillars of Modern Security Service: As the chair of the school of Criminal Justice, each new class presents some unique issues to be addressed. Yet, there are always common questions which recur for each class. One of these always concerns what the modern security professional needs to be aware of in this changing technological era. With each incoming class, and with each graduating class, I have always stressed four key principles that they must beware of if they are to be successful in their new profession. In this article we will take a look at those four parameters and how they impact not only individuals, but the system of security throughout this country as a whole. The need to provide service, to continue education, to remember the need for latitude, and to understand the growing exibility of the new technological age are the four pillars that will make a successful professional, and a uccessful system for security.

46 OCTOBER 13, 2017

In the instruction of college students, we sometimes take for granted that their understanding of the world at large is the same as the professors that provide the instruction. This is seldom the case. In Criminal Justice programs for almost a decade we saw increasing numbers of young high school graduates come into programs with the intent of becoming police officers, or what we have grown to identify as public security officials. Over the last two years this process has change radically. With the economic pressure on states, counties, and cities, we have seen a reduction in number of public security personnel in the face of rising cost. The cost of training and maintaining the average police officer has increased over 415% since the 1980s as indicated in the department of justice and labor statistics. It is this extreme escalation in cost that has forced society away from public security and toward private security professionals for economic reasons. Yet service, a key factor that any security professional or organization must provide, has very different meanings for each of these groups. Police departments are and were created to provide protection to the population at large. This is often a very different type of service, and will continue to be a very different type of service than that provided by the private security professional whose creation and existence is often driven by contract to protect private property. Private security does not have the same posture toward people.

The nature of service is changing dramatically as we make the transition from large public forces, to smaller contract driven private forces in our society. Helping students to understand this distinction can often be traumatic for those that come to the educational institution with only the concept of public service as their vision. The study of contract law and the intricacies involved focuses the student on these differences. The distinction between the two natures of service becomes clear, if not readily accepted. An example occurred recently in Seattle that made national headlines. The City of Seattle operates a public bus system in the city. At one facility where buses would engage in turnarounds, security was not provided by police, but by a private security company. One particular evening, a young lady found herself under attack by a group of young men in this facility. The private security officers responsible for this facility could be seen on camera not responding to the individual who was in distress. A Public outcry resulted from this lack of response and service. Once the investigation was undertaken it became apparent that the contract which allowed these private security forces into this facility restricted their ability to respond to individual attacks. Their responsibility was the protection of property, i.e. the buses, the property of that company to which they contracted. They were providing service in according with the terms of their contract, but not in terms of the social contract that society often expects from public security entities. It is this new change in understanding that the public must grow to understand as we make a shift from public security to private security in many of these areas. In time, we will balance these issues of service but at present it is an area that the security professional must be aware of and understand more fully. VOL. 22 ISSUE 1111

Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/expert/Arthur_Jackson_Jr/930009

BY ARTHUR JACKSON JR


Education: Twenty years ago the average police officer needed little more than a high school education, and some well cultivated connections on a local police force before being accepted for training in a state sponsored academy. Likewise, a private security officer needed the same educational background to be accepted into a program that provided minimal training before being allowed to carry a firearm and to use lethal force. Those days are long gone. Today the modern security professional, weather in the public sector are the private sector, faces a growing pressure for increased levels of education. At the institution where I teach, we hire a number of adjuncts to teach classes each year. Many of these people come from police departments, and others from private security companies and the court systems in terms of prosecutors both Federal and state. The minimum requirement to teach a course at our institution, and many other institutions is a master’s degree as a minimum. We see the same trend in companies looking to hire new graduates. In many segments of the security industry, especially those dealing with information systems, the Bachelor’s Degree is the minimum requirement to get in the door of the company. The American Society of Industrial Security, the largest organization in the country for security professionals, has been one of the leaders in establishing higher educational requirement for all private companies across the nation. Likewise, public security agencies such as sheriff ’s departments and police departments who for years have used the associates degree as the minimum requirement for entry level positions, have slowly begun to back away from that position. An associate degree may get you an entry level job with a police department or a sheriff ’s department, but you will not be promotable. Over the last decade, as evidenced by U.S. Department of Education, National Center for Education Statistics, which keeps educational statistics for all colleges across the country, Criminal Justice programs had moved significantly away from certificates programs and associate degrees toward full bachelor’s degree programs for their students. This is driven in part by the complexity of technology graduates must face. This will not change in the foreseeable future. VOL. 22 ISSUE 1111

Latitude: Latitude as a concept is very difficult to explain to students, and often just as difficult for professionals in the field to grasp. Latitude deals with political astuteness, and the ability to have room to maneuver in current societal situations. The security professional whether in the public sector or the private sector must deal with individuals that represent different strata’s of society. They may be discussing issues with the CEO of a large multinational conglomerate, a politician, or dealing with a highly sensitive issue for a single family. Each of these requires a certain degree of latitude, or political astuteness. The professional must be aware of the political realities of changing situations. They must be comfortable in a wide range of political situations and understand what room for maneuvering is available to them in order to address the problems they may face.

Flexibility: In the world of today, and tomorrow, the security professional must be the ultimate utility person. They must be comfortable with a range of technological systems, and be comfortable with these systems. Whether they are dealing with psychological profiles to help them understand their community, or the personal data they will safeguard for that community, they must be capable of dealing with a bewildering array of technology. The security professional of today must have unparalleled flexibility to move seamlessly, and flawlessly between a large number of systems and to be proficient in their use.

Conclusion: In understanding what will be required in the changing economic, political, social, and technological environment of the future, security professionals must understand and add here to these four fundamental pillars of success. To succeed, the successful security professional, irrespective of whether in the public or private sector must understand the important and changing nature of service in the future. They will likewise be aware of increasing educational goals with in their areas and adjust their educational goals according. Finally they must obtain a firm grasp of the need for latitude, and its political subtleties as well as flexibility which is being driven by technological need in a changing world. If they adhere to these four pillars, that will be successful and society will be the better for it. OCTOBER 13, 2017

Q: I love my job and have worked at this company for 8 years. During the last 3 years, I have worked from home. There are 4 people on our team, and only 1 person works at the offi ce. All four of us communicate all the time via instant messaging, and we have become a really tight knit team. We have been hearing through the grapevine that management is reviewing the whole home offi ce thing because they think it’s not as productive. No one has ever said a word to me about my production, and I’ve never missed a deadline. I really need to keep everything the same because I have a 3 year-old, and I would have to spend a lot of money for daycare, etc. How can I address this with my management team without sounding whiny? I wouldn’t quit, but it would sure be an inconvenience. -Houston, Texas Reader

A: I’ve been reading a lot of news about companies bringing more people into the offi ce instead of following the work at home model. It’s interesting to see how trends develop. A few years ago, many employers were copying the big companies like OCTOBER 13, 2017 48Yahoo, IBM, and Aetna in embracing the remote

workforce concept. Recently all three of those companies have abandoned that idea to bring people back in-house.

to have more expenses because of day care. How much more should I make?

Which of these plans works better? It depends on the employer, it depends on the team, and it depends on the functionality. If the company begins to feel more disconnected from a large number of their employees, they will have a knee jerk reaction and end remote working. If they see a great return for their investment, they will be happy to continue the way they are going. It’s very individual to the company and to the remote tasks. For decades many outside salespeople have worked from a home offi ce with occasional forays into the office for paperwork, etc. I don’t see that ever changing.

A: That’s a big question because I don’t know your job title or how many years of experience you have. Most of the online information that I’ve found is linked to an advertisement or is unreliable in other ways. A couple that seem less interested in getting you to buy something than in helping you are: www.payscale.com, www.bls.gov/oes/current/ oes419031.htm, and www.sokanu.com. The most reliable seems to be the bls.gov website (Bureau of Labor Statistics from the US Department of Labor.) Just remember that the company doesn’t always do all that research and has a certain pay scale in mind.

Your tight-knit team should actually all talk with management about this. You may fi nd that the rumors aren’t even accurate.

Q: I am going back to work for the fi rst time since I had children. I’m actually going back to the same job with the same company, but I think I have to ask for a raise. For one thing, salaries have gone up in the last 7 years, and for another, I’m going

Make Your Low-Paying-Job Filled Resume

REFLECT YOUR POTENTIAL R. C. L. Bailey

Having a resume which stands out is essential in a competitive jobs market. Many people improve their resumes by doing unpaid internships or voluntary work, but working for nothing is an expensive pastime. These four tips will help you make a resume which features low-wage jobs look more attractive to better-paying employers without resorting to misleading statements or undertaking months of unpaid work. Employers like to have confirmation that they are making the right decision when hiring you. They want to know that their positive judgment of you is not because you are superficially charming. They want a guarantee that you are a good employee. The best way to give them the reassurance that they want is to show that other people have found you to be reliable, trustworthy, and a great choice of employee.

FOCUS ON RESPONSIBILITIES INSTEAD OF JOB TITLES

Remember, not everyone knows what someone working in a fast-food restaurant or in retail does on a day-to-day basis. Something which may have seemed like a mundane and expected task might not be an obvious part of the job to someone who has never set foot into the staff area of a shop. List every responsibility you had and think about what would have happened if you hadn't done your tasks. Don't include all of these on your resume; you're not trying to bore the reader into giving you a job and there's no need to explain the inner workings of a milkshake machine to someone who will never have to open one up and find out why it has stopped working. Pick three or four and hint that there were more responsibilities, but these were the most important. Were you cash-handling? That's a responsibility. It shows that you are trustworthy and numerate. Were you locking up at the end of the day? That shows you can follow procedures even when you're tired. Were you training new members of staff? You knew your job well enough to show someone else how it was done and your managers trusted you to get it right. Spell out your responsibilities clearly and concisely.

50 OCTOBER 13, 2017

Was there a theme to your responsibilities? Were you trying to make the customer experience as pleasant as possible, enabling other people to do their jobs without interruption, or maximizing current and future revenue? Putting a name to the theme shows that you thought about what you were doing and understood that your job had a purpose.

FOCUS ON EXTRA DUTIES AND PROMOTIONS

Anyone who has held a low-wage job for longer than a few months knows that their job description is infinitely flexible. An employer might not understand that low-pay jobs routinely expand to the capacity of the worker. Including some of the ways that your job description evolved during your employment is a great way to show that your previous managers saw that you were capable of learning more complex tasks. Look at your list of responsibilities and ask yourself whether any of them were introduced after a few months of work for that employer. Be as specific as possible. Were you doing tasks which were above your pay-grade, such as taking over some duties from a manager? Make sure that you include this and mention that you were keen to learn more about the job as a hint that you were engaged with your work. Did your previous employer promote you to be a supervisor or a manager after hiring you to be a team member? How long were you working for that employer before you were promoted? If it was less than a year, then it's definitely something which should be highlighted on your resume. It shows that you were paying attention to your job and were clearly capable of more.

SHOW THAT YOU HAVE INITIATIVE

Employers want someone who will get a job done. They want someone who does what they set out to do with a minimum of fuss and drama, and they want someone who will save them money or make them money.

Look outside your past work history to find extra examples of your entrepreneurial and organizational skills. Have you got any qualifications or experiences which might seem ordinary but which show you have initiative? Do you have a first aid qualification or an educational qualification which looks standard but which took you extra effort to obtain? Have you ever sold goods online or organized a bake sale or an event? Make sure that your future employers understand that you are able to plan and see through a project. It is also important that they understand that all of your drive and energy will be at their service so make it clear that you have no obligations which might take up your time and attention.

DON'T GIVE UP!

Don't stop applying for better-paid positions if you don't get an interview or if someone else is hired. There are many reasons why you might have been rejected. Maybe someone with industry-specific experience applied and got the job because he or she didn't need any training, or a previous employee or a friend of the business owner applied for the job, or the employer might have even changed their minds about taking on a new staff member and nobody was hired. None of these reasons mean they think that you would make a bad employee. Asking for feedback on your application and interview is an important way to learn how to strengthen your applications in future. Consider the reasons that you were not hired without taking them personally. Are you missing a key skill for that industry which you can learn? Are there any certificates which would help you to stand out? Look online for free qualifications or courses and keep a note of any you take. It might take a few applications to get a better-paying job but you will get where you want to VOL. 22 ISSUE 1111 go if you keep trying.
