My friend is earning so much money by doing two jobs. The first one is by teaching part time and the other one is by being a full time teacher on half day only. By doing this he earns double. I just advised him to take a rest for a while.

you just remind my of my life about 3 years ago. for almost 6 years, i did 2 jobs and so i earn double. i am a state worker, until now, and for 6 years until 3 years ago, i worked as a computer technician, encoder, etc. i did everything all about computers in a courier company. unfortunately, 3 years ago, that company experienced some problems with the staff relationship and affected the manager of the branch and so as my job there. i was actually part-time non-regular employee there and in a way, connected with the position of the manager. i was removed from the job when he was fired.

It is an advantage for your friend get a lot of money to do the job yes. Maybe in my opinion, you give him advice that is not too tired, he too needed to stabilize the situation. To avoid the things that are not desirable to him. So that money flowing into the pockets :)

As long he is happy doing that why not work on two jobs? since both are part time, it is not really strenuous at all. I have known people who work in 2 jobs and then come home and do more work on the internet...all the best and enjoy your day

I just remember also a friend who earn so much but her rant is she had no time to take care for her self the last time we met I thought that she was a guy, her belly was so big and she cut her hair short because she haven't had time to fix her hair always and we can't even chat longer than 30 minutes because she had so much thing to do, and when I visited her at work she looks devastated, no lovelife and no real friend just work, money and family who depends on her, I feel so sad for her and I honestly don't like to be in the same situations. Well as long as your friend manage her time fully then I guess she is lucky than my friend,

Good for him that he could handle two jobs good. Time management is needed for him to di it well. Maybe he could take a rest during weekends and enjoy life. Earning double could help him earn more for the future.

It so good to earn so much money but we can only give an advised to them. Maybe,he has a plan or goal by working hard that's why he keeps working full time. I know you just worry about him. Keep it up! Show your care and love for your friend and in no time I'm sure he will understand you and appreciate your concern.

It is definitely a delicate balance between working two jobs and getting your needed rest. I used to do it regularly, and am currently looking for a second job to supplement my family's income. One one hand I have learned to take the time off and use it to my benefit health-wise, resting and relaxing as much as possible, but at the same time I need to make a little more money to save and put us in a better position as my wife and I get older and need it more. It can be very lucrative, but it is good that you are trying to help him realize that he may need to rest a little, too. A big thing is when people work two jobs but are unable to recognize when they need a break or to take it easy. So that is definitely important, too. Good luck to you both!

It is always good to rest when doing a lot of work. Some people don't realize that it's too much until they burst and it's too late. Your body does a lot when your stressed, it's always good to avoid that. Though extra money is nice too.

That's great to have more than one source of income, but what good will it do if he will spend some of his earnings or savings for healthcare if ever he got sick by pushing himself too hard? Tell him he needs to chill once in a while especially now that he's balancing two different jobs. He deserves it. All work and no play is enough to drive anyone insane. Or something like that.

Well I think he doing alright now as in Young he should be collecting a lot and while when he is aged he could rest have a peak lifestyle visiting great places. So let him continue for what he is doing and teaching is not a difficult labor job, it just involve human vocal cord and using it daily helps with the human only, also keeping himself busy each time everyday is good for him too as he is keeping up his brain working instead of mocking out his extra time for not required activities.
