Hello. Some people are ready to work after working time, only to make some extra income. Others decide, for example, to drive a truck or being on a ship for a very long period of time (6 months, an year, 2years) with the purpose of making much money (much more than a normal job). My question dear mylotters is, which options would you choose if you had to choose? Being near your family and friends and having enough time spending with them simultaneously working at a normal job. Or if you had the chance to go somewhere and make a big amount of money at the expense of missing family and friends. Which one would you choose? Would you be enough strong for providing your family a decent life or for you the biggest gift is being with them and helping when is needed?

That's not a easy one to answer. As we need our family, friends and money to make our life's happier and easier. I know a few who stay away from home for long periods just to provide for their families. Cruel life and world. I personally would rather stay near my family, without making extra money. TATA.

Yes, cruel life and world. This is your choice, that's good. I think the most people who stay away for a long period of time are the men, isn't it? Maybe because they are not so sensitive like the women... Maybe By the way, do you go to watch the WC on life? If I lived in SA, I would go to watch the matches not once. TATA :D

Now i would prefer staying with family...as i have borne the consequences to making extra money. I had a problem of money so i started doing Overtime and weekends. I wanted more money to keep my wife haapy. But she always complained that i gnored her. There communication gap between us started increasing. Now i dare go behing some extra money in this process i dont wanna lose my wife.
