Costs of living are not going down too soon, I would like to just help my close and loved family members more who are now retired and even disabled too. Living on very fixed incomes they could really use some more help at times this is so clear. Perhaps with just some grocery and household things, and one or two bills like the water or electric this could help so much I know. Then we could focus on fixing other things up like adding to the house or other home and garden projects we have had for far too long now. I have wanted to be able to helpsomehow with all of these things for quiet a long while now and not being able too makes me very sad and really angry too with myself. I feel like such a big failure and disappointment to my loved one's almost everyday. Some days I am so down I barely even want to get out of my bed very depressing for sure. If you can understand any of this write me here nobody should have to go through this nasty stuff all alone right? A.B.

Life is getting tough for everyone as day passing us by, only a few political elites and corporate CEO are enjoying their life in this economic downturn, many are put into deeper daily struggle just to make a life out of the rising cost of their living. I would like help out my family with costs but to my personal disappointment, i am just as well burn out myself as my retired parent dealing with today economic reality.

I do absolutely understand what you are going through with being just as down as the retired family too and wish you all the best and everything in the future for a good change in your situation or at least a better ways of coping with it all anyway. My hopes and prayers go with all who are struggling today in this very tough situation that we may find the best of ways to make lemons out of lemon aide or to make the very best of a tough situation anyway. We just hardly afford though to let ourselves stay as burned out as our parents for too long you know if there are others who are counting on us in any ways to not give up that is who really wants to just disappoint right. Here's to keeping your head up and your dreams alive to not letting your spirit become crushed under the weight of poverty and to rise from the ashes of these times we must carry on. Thanks,A.B.

I know it is so crazy and impossible to barely buy your groceries and pay the bills and just nothing much left after this. You ever go to the grocery store and only able to pay for half of the food on the belt then end up giving the cashier the last bit of cash in your wallet too. You must save every nickle and dime the rest of the month just to go by the other half of your groceries too. Plus, there are the wild and crazy disagreements I have with my parents who I now live with. They tell me they won't even be interested in my online ventures until they see me earning an income from it. Which is very understandable since they pay the bills and support my internet connection too plus they see how unhappy and stressed out I am all the time about not being able to help more too. They are worried and so is my elderly Grandpa and even myself for my very uncertain future right now. I keep telling them to reassure them that I will not give up and I won't I am that determined to make an online income work for me somehow too. I have seen many other families struggling too and do understand what is happening today, still we must try harder then to over come these hurdles not matter the cost for our families and our own futures sake I believe we the people are in the end going to make the real changes here with this economic situation there will come no change from any place else but from within our own homes and our ways of life and spending habits and that is it. The rich will keep getting richer and the poor stay poor and you will get poor too unless you do something about it right. This is what I have come up with anyway now. Thanks,A.B.
