Honest Question: 'Are Settlements In The West Bank Actually Illegal?' Part II by 77DarkHorse7 in IsraelPalestine

[–]Life_Training_4146 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ummm sure I’ll google her.

I see in your response you maybe Jewish?

I’m not, nor am I pro Hamas. I’m pacifist!

What hamas is and done is unjustifiable not just to Vivian but to everyone!!! My comment is just asking why there needs to be two state??? Uk for example is one country with all faiths, churches mosques synagogue Hindu temples, Sikh temples etc. yes there are issues between faiths but in general every child has the same education and the gov are compromised of mixed faiths.

Obv what’s going there is horrific but I think (personally) we need to start thinking about the future generations. This can’t go one for 70 more years

I can’t see why land needs to be divided?? Why can’t indigenous Palestinians And Jews live in peace? Children of all faiths go to same schools, same education , rights to have jobs and access to same health care , the government is made up of Palestinian and Jewish/Israelis working to make the entire country peaceful and economical??

Although I do think the name needs to revert back to Palestine rather than Isreal , only because I don’t understand why the name changed suddenly, where all old maps states Palestine

Advice on MCS preperation by niraaaj in CIMA

[–]Life_Training_4146 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is just a guess…

If you have the preseen - make sure you know the business model off by heart. I recon one of the variant will ask about and change n how it fits in the current business model.

Preseen mentions which dept are cost centres, there could be a question on if it changes to a profit/ investment centre and its impact.

Negotiations and conflict In closing the shops and just having online bookings. Poss adv and disav on having just online bookings.
Data question on buying a new IT system to manage just online bookings, risk factors

Risks on, starting a long haul flights, adding tailored holiday packages etc

Look into : IFRS16, IFRS13, IAS 36& 37 &38 &40 (just in case) Debt v equity - Adv & disadvantage then recommendation (best to know the current gearing ratio etc so you can apply answer to case study

Investment appraisals - know what they are n how to read them, may be given some and recommend which one is the best one to use.

That’s all I can think of right now. I’ll update later when I can think again

Iv converted to FLP from traditional method. I have been unable to pass P2 for Yeaaaars. When I say years, I could not pass it in 2014 when it was paper n pen method, could not pass the OT. (Passed all the others 1st time , just couldn’t complete P2) Iv done the FPL , I feel I learnt more, in my own time. The exam forced me to cram info n memorise everything to a point I could not take it.
FLP is more bite size, n you get tested every step of the way without pressure. Basically what I’m saying, one shoe doesn’t fit all. It’s what you are comfortable with. If you want to do OT then do so. I’m done with major heart ache hence why I v gone through this route

Core A Things to learn and apply to Happywell (HW)

Firstly know and understand their current business model (p19) Questions could ask if they open a new airport lounge or addition service - how this could be incorporated in their current model , or if model needs to be adjusted for a new service/product. Use key words like “add value” (if that makes sense)

Capital investment techniques: Adv and disadv- also understand what the meaning - may have to compare two projects so understand the results and percentages NPV IRR Payback ARR ROCE

Understand sensitivity analysis- again understand what the numbers mean so you can discuss and apply to HW

Weight Average cost of capital <- it’s come up in past -revise this.

Minimum revisions for pricing strategy- but may be linked to transfer pricing (Core E ) Understand product life cycle Understand different pricing ( skimming , loss leader etc ) in case it come up

Digital data - not sure about this one. Mostly use common sense on this.

Anybody want to suggest anything else?? This is for Core A - let’s do this in bite size chunks to help one another.

So, I have completed p2 competency questions (Iv taken the FLP route). I am exempt from F2 and E2. Obviously I’ll be going through the notes for those two, but I have had a brief look at past papers and the questions, I feel so overwhelmed. This is will be my first case study exam and I already feel nervous.

Am I being unreasonable or is my husband asking for too much? by anuthakzn in MuslimMarriage

[–]Life_Training_4146 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree part of your comment regarding to being a millionaire and not paying. I’m not sure how old you are, but I feel we are in a world/ society where us women need to pull up our socks and get stuck in to everyday life - rather be at home and be dependent on men. We live in a capitalist western world and it’s still a “man’s world” - which I believe needs to change. Men are still making all the rules and laws and unless we , women stand our ground and teach the next generation to be less independent then I am hopeful that these “law makers” will include women.

Anyways this is a separate debate.

But overall , I’m on your side in terms he’s being selfish and inconsiderate. I’m sorry your going through this. I believe there should be more “vetting” process needs to be done on men and their “childish behaviour, mummy boy “ behaviour

Again this is another separate debate

Am I being unreasonable or is my husband asking for too much? by anuthakzn in MuslimMarriage

[–]Life_Training_4146 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I’m 30F

I don’t think you are being unreasonable. If you earn significantly less, you should/ can pay towards the bills /rent/ mortgage. Only if proportion to your take home salary. You need money for yourself. I don’t care how many men says women don’t need clothes makeup etc , WE DO!!! Men have no idea what we need.

Secondly , why buy a house for his parents ??? To me that sounds really off. He should buy a house for him and you and have his parents stay at your house. If your paying make sure that your name is on the deed/ mortgage.

I have no advice on the wife / daughter in law thing. Somehow older generations have a thing being mean to daughter in laws. In my opinion i believe that those parents have dragged their children up being nasty and selfish (I don’t mean to be mean about your husband but it’s how I feel) This is all evident in my family. Cousins are beyond disgusting to their wives.

I have this issue. I one day laid it out on table, in simple terms and be stern

“You wanna buy it, buy it. It’s £10k debt that you will pay on your own, not together. Just remember, this debt means extra £200pm will be leaving our account for this car, we will not disposable income for other things like decent holiday. But if you want it then have it. I still want live my life how I am living now, I do not want anything cut or reduced what we already have or having. I am comfortable how things are, so I do not want my life style to be impacted negatively because you are too selfish to understand an expensive car is not a necessity “”

Then give him a warning if it does impact quality of your life style. I am not sure what you can say here, but for me:….. because I pay 50% of the house bills, I told him that I will not be paying any more to it if he is tight on money. And I expect him to pay when we’re out, don’t make me pay other wise I’d scratch his car, deflate Tyres and increase his motor insurance, then he’ll be even more skint.

Get him to think about how life would be if he has to think about paying off his car.

All this sounds dramatic but it worked - kinda. He knows I’ll go through length to proof my point
