Hello friends, i got this problem right now.
I work online since half an year, and i could earn very good in this period, around 7000$ for couple of months, but i feel this job is full with stress and a lot of bad emotions. I need to stay on my computer many hours, to be friendly and nice all the time, to request different asking, to plan different stuff again and again until my online boss likes the project. This is how i became a person, who doesn't want to meet with people, this is how i became, from a positive person, to a person, who doesn't know what is he fighting about. When the money come, they need to be given for some bill or other expenses. I was never able to use the money for some fun and i miss funny times really much. I miss meeting people, i miss my social life.
What would be a stimulus for you to continue doing the same? When i checked my bank account today, i could see really good amount, instead of the 200$-300$ normal payment for a month in my country, but i feel like a stale rubber. What would be your stimulus to continue doing something you don't like so much, because of the money?
Thanks for sharing your experience and opinions.

Look at it this way - we don't live to work, but we work to live. You could give up this unique opportunity you have in order to have your social life now. But, your happiness from social interactions will be short lived once your funds run dry - you'll earn less money and spend more socializing. With any job, you have to realize that it's not a job for life. There's no guarantee you'll still be earning that amount in a year's time. Therefore, you should view this as building for your future. I can relate and know how you feel, but just step make and look at the bigger picture. Work hard today, play harder tomorrow.

That's true, that was what i thought when i started ... I'll work hard now and soon when we have saved money, we can have fun with my boyfriend, but it's not that way, months after i started this job. I planned a trip, with rest, wanted to start some kind of simple business with my boyfriend, just wanted part of the money to stay away. But it didn't happen. When we could take it from the ATM, money was flying away, for paying expenses. This is why making money is not my stimulus anymore. I don't believe that some day, if i make the same amount as before, something good will happen with the amount, i'm sure that we will spend the money for expenses again, which is boring. I don't want to make 1000$ for a month and to survive every day. People here make 300$ for a month, in the best case, and go out, meet with people, have fun, drink coffee with friends, make trips once a year and so on.

you already have the money you need ,so now you should do something you really like.nothing`s more important than happiness !if you still hesitate about it ,why don`t you take some days off for a vacation and you can think carefully about your future during it.but i still wish you make a choice that can make you happy !

i have to admit that`s a problem .maybe my advice is too idealize to you .you still worry about your expenses after you quit the job .
for me ,i may face the same situation as you after i graduate .but there is a belief i would never change ,that`s i can find a satisfied job ,no matter what suffers during the process. life is my own life .
i don`t know what you are thinking about .if this job is so important to you ,you should try to make youself love it ,find something interesting in it ....

I made the money and as i wrote in other answers, there is no coin of the amount anymore. I was working for the money every month and when it was pay day, the money were melting in expenses.
So i wanted to ask, if you see, that you win good and all the money are melting when you take it from the ATM, what would make you to continue working the same annoying job, if you know that you can't save even 1 coin?

Save up about 100 grand, put it in a super great savings account and earn 3-5 grand a year, and live like a vagrant, without having to work :D. Or save up 200 grand and do the same, but live like a slightly higher class vagrant :D Then you could do whatever you feel like :D

Hello suggar,
It is really hard to work for a job that you do not like and you are not happy doing it. For me if i experience that i will resign for that job but you make sure first that you have an alternative for it. You need to find a job that you really like and good salary same in your current job before you make a decision to resign in your current job.
Have a nice and Happy mylotting.

Hello Stanly, there is no different job than this i do now, which will help me earn so much money. 
When i started it, i was so ready to do everything, it was interesting because i felt that there is no matter how long i stay online, money were really important and the amount for a month could stimulus me, but for now, it doesn't Money are not enough stimulus. I want to bring back my REAL LIFE.

Actually all the money was melting very fast with our expenses. We paid every month my boyfriend's loans taken from two banks. And some other bills. And now we live in rented apartment, so even if i do so much money now, they will melt again in bank credits and rent, expenses for living. I know that if i don't do so much, we will got much more stress, because nothing will be paid at time. But this work is pissing me off. When i do it only for 1 or 2 hours i feel like i've done some really hard physical work and i already feel tired and annoyed.

Hi Suggar,
Most everything in our lives we can control. You have the option here to stick with this job that seems to be tearing at your emotions, or you can quit; it really is as simple as that.
I know that you are aware that not too many regular people are making that kind of money that you mentioned here, but is it worth the sacrifices that you are making? Being unhappy on a job, no matter the income, is very stressful and unhealthy for your overall body.
I would devise a plan of how and when is the right time to pull the plug on the stressful job. Less money, more happiness? Your choice.

Hello AngelGirl, actually i answered on the last page something and i wrote our expenses. So i can't do nothing about that. Just stay online and hope i'll be good enough to be paid as my expenses need.
Actually i think it's better if i say - less expenses, more happiness. We have expenses which could be out of our paying list if they were not taken, as loans.

My situation is also like you, I find it very tough to decide. Once you start working full time, you will realize money does matters, from my point of view, if you have to sacrifice your social life for money, try to set a goal. Prioritize things in your life, if you feel, you have sufficient money or if you can get another job of same salary, leave this job as soon as possible. However, if you feel, you need money for your day to day living, you should continue this job for the time being and look for another job so that you can change your job.
Always remember, you will enjoy your social life, friends and family only if you are independent and able to earn good money for yourself and for people who are dependent on you. Take your decision accordingly...
All the best!!!

That's a bit hard. In doing something, it depends on what is important to you. If having a good time in doing your job is your priority, you better find a job that you most enjoy and love doing very much. If your main concern is to earn big money, there is no way of quitting your present job. I guess, you must take into consideration what is more important in your life. You don't enjoy your job but you receive very good money from it right? Aren't you happy when you see good pay comes in your account? I guess the good pay itself must motivate you to do more and continue your good work in your job. Nothing more.

I am motivated when i see the good payment in my account, but when i think that i have to spend so many hours and hours reading, researching, talking, i just am not sure can i handle it again. The person is from Canada, this is the first. I'm in Bulgaria. It means that when here is 7 in the morning, there is 11 in the evening and people are doing to bed. So i need to stay online in the nights, to talk to the person sometimes, if i can help with something, or if he got something, that i have to do.

I am speaking based on my experience. I just want to say that there is no amount of money that can substitute a happy life. You may not have lots of money but if you are positive and quite contented in life, you should consider yourself more blessed. While a good-paying job will give you financial security, your outlook in life will be affected so much that you will turn into a negative person - and that's more costly.

Thanks for sharing your opinion friend, i'll do my best to pay every expenses we have now and then i'll try to start university. When i was younger, i didn't have that option - money and other problems could stop me for sure. But now im grown up and i think that if all earned money are invested in something good, i'll got the chance to make as much, as i do now, with something else, i like more.
