hehe maybe yes its true that all of us got a problem with money at this time...hehe but with me, as much as possible i don't want it to bother me much...haha
right now, i think i don't have that much money...what i got is just enough for what we need...huh! or rather i say that i make it enough for our daily needs...thus i need to budget well...to meet ends...
and what i am just thankful of is that even if i don't have much money, at least i am debt free...

ah-huh! I have small debts too not to mention the debt i owe my youngest sister for the load i needed. 
And i told her that i am going to pay her when i have found a real job, which will take me so long to find one. I just need her patience, and i hope i could find a job to help my family.

Be thankful for that fact ckyera. 
Not everyone of us here are debt free you know. Since the recession is very prevalent in the whole world. The challenge of being debt-free is quite hard to manage. Good thing you have skills on budgeting. That would really help you meet your goals.

I am in dire need of it myself. Seems like everywhere I turn I need money for something. I have no car and need money to buy an old used one. We are getting foreclosed on so i need money to find a new place and move. My 6 year old daughter needs money for some of her medical needs(she is disabled). Yep seems like money is in short supply. And I know I am not the only one needing it. Sure wish I could win the lotto or something

Hello babyangie.
I don't have a car also and i think i am lucky enough to live with my parents so i don't have to think of the rents. I don't have a daughter either. I think if you have a real job plus the earnings you get here, that would be a big help for your income. Where's your partner and Wwat is the disability of your daughter anyway? I think i could try to help you out there since i am a graduate of Bachelor of Science.

My husband works and I stay home and care for my daughter she has epilepsy,cerebral palsy,developmental delay and on kidney.
My husband pays child support for two kids from two exes so money is gone before we ever get it. We got behind a few years ago and have been fighting ever since to get back on our feet. We were doing ok until the insurance for his new job started coming out,that is killing us. But we keep trying it's all we can do.

You are really in a pretty hard situation angie.
It's really a big challenge for both of you. I hope you can get to earn enough funds for that matter. I think there are those Foundations that help the needy. Like in our country we have charities wherein their goal is to help people with not enough money and get donations from the people who wanted to help. Maybe you could try that one. So that it could somehow lessen your problems. It's a good thing that your husband has his job and you have also done part time like this one. I hope you could make it and be happy despite the hard situation. Take care!

I wouldn't say that I'm in dire need of money as I feel that I'm pretty comfortable as long as I spend my money wisely. I'll probably need some help in a few months when it comes time to start repaying student loans and such, but right now I'm doing quite well. I'm mostly using Mylot so I can have extra money to use for things that I want, for things I need and so I can put some money aside into a savings account for later. I'm planning ahead.

Hello high.
Sorry to make a shortcut there. Your name is too long. I can see that you are still a student. And i am happy that you are planning ahead. Not all student has the same plans and quality like you do. I also hope that getting online doesn't bother you with your studies. Since it gets too distracting when you have an exam pending or assignments to be submitted. I have always teased my sister to have an account in this site but she keeps on telling me that she's busy and has no time. Though she never fails to get online at least once a day because of her facebook account. So it's quite ironic.

We all want money for something. But I would be ashamed of myself if I said that I am in dire need of it. My pension is very small but the house is mine. Should I have real need of money, I can sell it and buy a smaller one in a not so good neighborhood.
My siblings help me with money and my mom too. My daughters also help, specially the youngest that earns more.
I want to earn some money because I don´t like to ask for it if I can help it. And sometimes presents turn out to be very expensive. My brother thought I was too lonely and gave me my dog. It´s a German Shepherd and to feed her is very expensive. Now I´m doing a parting in the garden so that I can have part of my garden back. Now she is the sole owner of all of it. That´s money. So that this year I won´t have vacations (that´s what I did with the money earned online) but I´ll prepare the house for Lola.
But that´s not a real need. I live frugally but well.

That's nice Marguicha. Having children that helps you is a blessing cause not all does that. Dogs are great companion. If you have a hard time feeding them, you can try feeding them with your own food. Foods that are bland and has less seasoning will do. Like minced meat and plain veggies. We sometimes feed our dog those stuff and it's okay. You are very kind to build a house for your Lola. I bet she's really kind.

Where did the pretty word come from?
I am logging here to enjoy myself, to learn and at the same time earn. And make my time productive. I guess all of us have the same purpose.

hi koalapenguin
money is everything these days. but it is not everything. a difficult equation. he has been a means of life
health and comfort in self-defense is much more important than money
most of us need the money,including me,but we do not make it everything in our lives. thanks
