HOW COVID-19 MAY AFFECT FUTURE CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

By now, you’ve been affected by the world spread phenomenon of COVID-19 ,known throughout the world as Coronavirus.

Coronavirus have impacted all of America, leaving many people out of work, not knowing where the next dollar may come from, and anxiously waiting for a Government check.

During this meltdown I thought about how would this impact future contracts with freelancers and businesses.

I. PANDEMIC CLAUSE

I can imagine after things go back to “normal”, people will want contract drafters to specify stipulations that will take place if another pandemic is in effect.

I can anticipate people would want things such as payment obligations, deadline extensions, or a complete void if pandemic prevents the obligations from being carried out.

You can also expect employees wanting businesses to have emergency funds in place or work from home conditions that will not negatively impact their pay.

II. PARTIES’ HEALTH

Without our health we are extremely limited in what we can accomplish. Hence the term “Health is Wealth”.

I would also anticipate seeing language such as “ as long as parties are within reasonable health” and things of that nature.

Health will become such a focal point because after all this no one wants to work with anyone who is sick.

The slightest cough could send a room into a frenzy.

So parties would want to ensure health is the main priority so that any obligations that must be met will be met with a clear & sound mind and as much good physical health as possible.

III. ALL IN ALL

The Coronavirus is still running rampant throughout the world, devouring anyone who isn’t careful of its cobra clutches.

It is important we remain safe and prayed up.

When we are blessed to engage back in business, we should make sure all i’s are dotted and all our t’s are crossed, making sure we are aren’t caught off guard by a national pandemic like this again.

WHY SUPPLIES ARE SO HIGH

*Me at my art show, two weeks ago. I put a lot of money into, knowing it would be worth it for the monetary gain and exposure. Well worth the cost of entry.*

I always wondered why supplies (i.e. art, music,) are so expensive. It doesn’t matter what field you are in the supplies are always more than what you would like to pay.

I think it clicked it to me after my art show and being in the final term of law school.

When the supplies are used the right way, there is no cap on return of investment. I could spend thousands on art supplies: getting paper, markers, pencils etc. and make it all back with one sale. (Maybe a few more depending on expenses).

Since supplies are expensive, it’s disrespectful when people try to constantly low ball artists. It costs to produce fire please don’t think $20 should be the most you should pay for anything.

Also, I have this thought when it comes to law school. Although people complained for years about the prices of schooling and whether or not you need it, I think law school may be expensive for a different reason.

The impact and return on investment from law school can extremely outweigh the cost of education if your JD, that’s your Juris Doctor degree, is used correctly.

*Possibly the most famous lawyer in existence.*

*Bryan Stevenson, Lawyer who fights for the poor and disenfranchised*

Look at people like Bryan Stevenson, Barack Obama, Johnnie Cochran, and many other countless examples, whose impact greatly exceeds the cost of law school.

What is hundreds of thousands in costs and possible debt compared to the chance to literally save people lives, guide the free world, or take arguably the most notorious case in history.

These opportunities are almost priceless.

When you can acknowledge and accept everything has a barrier of entry, you can respect the fact that these prices are set for a reason.

When you spend that $1,000 on a keyboard, or those few hundreds on computer software, you won’t let that money go to waste, especially if its your own hard earned money!

No sir! You’re going to put your best foot forward making sure every penny spent will earn you back something even if its only spiritual gain and not a monetary increase.
