I think you lost me there, since it's NOT a final variable isn't it possible that it could change vlaue?

@Mechanic45, Okay, I've changed it. I set b as final now. This should address your concern.

Oh! and this way if I add more "common variables" I can just add them in one constructor and just adjust the args.So it is safe to not declare them final AND not worry :P. Thanks a lot it helped tremendus-iously! :)

@Mechanic45, I declare b as final now so that you won't be allowed to set it again.

@Mechanic45 Say you have a Class D and you already know that you want to set it to false. What you can do is this: D() { super(false) } You don't have to asked them to provide the value of b in your constructor anymore.
