What's the point of saving

Philippines
May 8, 2019 11:25am CST
It's crazy but I regret it, I should have looked for work even when this commercial building was being made. Now, I'm having a crisis. I mean what happens if this site and the other stops paying for real this time. What worst is that i have uric acid problem, and probably will have more as I grow older. I guess it's just me being paranoid. Now, i fear that my future is bleak...

Use your energy to figure out how to move forward now . . . don't dwell on regrets. Be proactive with your health . . . there may be ways to help with that issue and to keep from getting worse. Believe me, since that recent car accident, I have a lot of my mind and wake up in the middle of the night thinking about things . . . I know I need to make changes in my life to get over certain fears about the future. Let's do this!

Hello @much2say Thank you for the advice, I've been waiting for a response such as this. I can't help it sometimes i need to vent out. You're right I should do my best to redirect my energy moving forward. This is why I decided to go to church with my Grandma because of this. Yeah, don't worry I'm setting myself straight.

@Letranknight2015 don't you have other relatives to take care of your grandma? It should be done through interval not you alone, that is too much of you.You have your own life to be given attention to.

Take charge of your health and eat properly for your uric acid problem. Go looking for work whenever you can.

Hello @GardenGerty what's even harder now is that my grandma is here who is 90 and four dogs I'm still blessed though. Not sure why this got into my head lately.

I don’t really rely on this site for earning but I think this site gives me joy to share something with everyone. The earnings just a bonus if I get some. I still is ely on the good old 8-5 day job for my living. Its more reliable source than online in my opinion. I seem to be not very successful with my online earnings.

@Letranknight2015 well I think it’s not too late for you to find a job if you really want to. I think you’re still in the age that can be hired still.

@Letranknight2015 I also got my fair share of being scammed online. I think i was on the verge on deciding to stop my day job but when the scamming came one by one I decided to stay on my regular job that kept me afloat. Its hard actually to wake up every day and report to work but that is what made me where I am today. I may not be rich but I could afford to feed my family and live as comfortable as my earnings bring me.

Does that mean that you given up work for the commercial center? Is that right? What would be the reason that they will not pay the rent? There should be a contract, right? I hope everything will be well especially on your health.

Hello @rakski oh, these tenants are paying rent. But I realized it wasn't really enough anymore. Not to mention we didn''t raise rent since it was built.

@rakski , very good questions.Why worry about the building if renters have signed a contract.That building would depreciate but the lot none.They should be ready if fire broke out.

@Letranknight2015 , you should raise the rent my friend.That rent price was long ago.Tell them of the Train law that requires your siblings to add the rent.

What is important is you have your SSS during retirement age so you'll have a lifetime pension.About your uric acid, I think it is curable.What to do is just avoid eating too acidic fruits, foods, drinks and others that trigger your uric to rise. Always drink water. Many are having uric acid problem, but they continue working.They just have their daily maintenance medicine.

Oh, calm down. I know sometimes we tend to feel that anxious, but inhale, exhale. I don't know about other places, but myLot has been working for some years now. I don't think it is going anywhere!

You're relying on writing sites to pay for what you need to lead a decent life? You can't be serious.

Hello @MALUSE nope, there's actually another site that I rely on. Decades ago i was relying on this site when the pay was big enough. The other site is getting cranky and if that goes down too, i don't know were else to go. You know if there are other writing sites that I'm confident enough to make a buck that would have been fine with me. but years back i rejected them too. I had work but didn't last long when we had the business.

You will not make hardly any money from this site, definitely not enough to live off so in my opinion it would not be very smart to rely on this site for your income.

Hello @MissNikki so many people have offered me other sites but i refused them because I lack the confidence to stay. No, I wasn't expecting much but not sure why I'm still thinking of getting my earnings here. I guess i need to sleep it's 12 in the morning over here. No, not anymore, ten years ago I would have saved big if i wasn't slacking off then.

Wow. If I owned a commercial building, I'd take one unit and turn it into an office or a store where I can sell stuff that interest me.

@Letranknight2015 oh that's unfortunate. i imagine that a commercial property should be earning money to sustain the owners and the building itself.

Saving is of utmost importance in life, since you can never predict what's going to happen. As far as you worrying about future is concerned, do worry, future is uncertain. You may become millionaire

Hello @Aansh13 men, what's the point of being a millionaire if i'm too old to spent it. But to tell you honestly, I dont to reach my grandma's age because I'd probably be end up less healthy compare to her. BUT tomorrow is another day so it's not too late.
