Has anyone managed to make the escape from low wage, unfulfilling dead end work? If so, how did you do it? Did you go back to school and take on more student loans? Did you work your way up in a company? I have been stuck in a...

Does money buy happiness?

Palmtree611 @Palmtree611 (32) • United States 16 Mar 13

I say to some degree it does buy happiness. I know I was happier when making $35,000 as opposed to minimum wage. When I made $35,000, I was able to go spend money on activities I enjoyed as opposed to struggling to pay the bills....

Palmtree611 Good advice. I think we need to find out what works for us if we need more money. For example, I heard about one lady who made $1800 a month selling Avon, while another may only make $200 a month. Some will make good money selling on Ebay, while others will...

Good careers in this economy.

Palmtree611 @Palmtree611 (32) • United States 6 Feb 13

What are some good careers one could possibly train for in this crazy economy? I obviously don't want to go into debt for anything, but it looks like I may have a job that offers tuition reimbursement. What careers would be worth...

Palmtree611 I am actually looking into occupational or physical therapy. It seems to be in demand here in Indiana. My mother is a nurse and even though she is over 60, she is able to find a job.

I tried to sell plasma twice last week. I was unsuccessful because they said my heart rate was too high. Is there anything I can do to bring down my heart rate? I could really use the money. I have tried breathing exercises to...

Palmtree611 I am on Mechanical Turk right now. It might be possible to make $5.00 a day if you do the higher paying tasks successfully. They do posts things like writing an article for $4.00 and doing surveys. However, there is a major catch, if the person doesn't like...

Palmtree611 I have not had much luck with Odesk. I have completed a few projects on Elance. However, the pay wasn't enough to pay the bills, so I got a traditional brick and mortar job to help. Plus, the writing projects on Elance were so time consuming that it was to do...

Palmtree611 You make an interesting point. I have actually never thought of it that way. I never watch game shows, but you are so right. If you get on a game show, you have already won something. You got to go on a game show and win a prize that you did not have...

Palmtree611 I don't know of any sites where you can earn that kind of money. The most I ever made in one month online was through Elance.com where I did a freelance writing project for like $400 or something like that. There are some call center type jobs you can do from...

Does education of university equal job ?

jammyPaul @jammyPaul (101) • Taiwan 10 Oct 11

The tuition of universities is still raising in recent years. However, I don't there is any co-relation between tuition and your career opportunity. You pay more and You get higher chance of getting a job. It seems that it is just...

Palmtree611 Education is severely oversold here in the USA. I mean we have unemployed people who are accruing more and more debt just because they want a decent job which is no guarantee. My advice to those wishing to go to college or go back would be this: 1....

Palmtree611 There are some really good teachers out there who are also very smart. The trouble with teaching is that it has become severely political. I really think there are some wonderful teachers out there who aren't even getting the chance to work in a classroom...

Real curious about something...has anyone made decent money doing direct sales?

Palmtree611 That is great to know. Did you advertise your business? A lot of people I know who have worked with direct sellers are more introverted, so maybe that had something to do with why they were not as successful.

Palmtree611 If you don't like speech pathology, then you should switch. I know when I was your age, I took some education classes I wasn't sure about. I wish I would have changed my major because I didn't really enjoy teaching. I listened to my parents and family who said...
