afzal50...actually, I'm nowhere near independant
At least not financially. It's just mostly that I'm afraid of people

It sounds like it has it's good points and bad points.
I guess it would depend on how well you like your family. Though it does sound secure.
Being that I'm not the real social type, I would probably not want to be in a joint family.

Sweetie, Joint family system is a system where people of the same
family and clan live together ,work together,happen to share economic
burden together, support each other , care for each other and the family property remain inseparable till actually the family is divided due any compelling situation. Thanks.

Hmmmm....guess I don't really understand this.
Guess I would need an indepth lengthy description of what goes on in a joint family before I could say yes or no.

The property and law of inheritence is governed in a way to keep
the family under one head known as HUFi.e., Hindu Undivided Family , which is run by Karta , a karta is an eldest male memeber of the family and is a kind of legal manager of the Joint family property.

Lilane, A joint family concept supports the individual to a
great extent. In India there is even legal concept of Hindu Joint Family system.
