I am supposed to tell the readers what aspects of lifelong learning I find to be the easiest and the most difficult.  I'm supposed to choose these from a list of 7.5 items.  I'll make it easier by breaking it down to two types, those that cost money and those that are free.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;Any step that requires the expenditure of money, especially for devices that are bound to be obsolete and useless before their warranties run out, is hard for me.  I used to be the king of the new gadgets.  However, a closet full of Betamax tapes, laserdiscs, cassettes, etc has convinced me to slow down the check-out line.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;Therefore, any step of the learning process that can be achieved free of charge is easy for me.  No matter how many ads, spam or other inconveniences come with it.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8890286970650664420-6966148932351652027?l=myotherduties.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://myotherduties.blogspot.com/feeds/6966148932351652027/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8890286970650664420&amp;postID=6966148932351652027' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8890286970650664420/posts/default/6966148932351652027'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8890286970650664420/posts/default/6966148932351652027'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://myotherduties.blogspot.com/2007/10/its-easy-when-its-free.html' title='Its easy when its free'/><author><name>MODAR</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08244632482146828809</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
