Do you always look for ways on how to have extra income?

I know some people who will do everything just to have extra income. Once, a guy was featured on tv, being a millionaire in two or three years. The secret? He sold almost everything except drugs perhaps. The thing is, is it easy for you to do something which you really don't like for the sake of money? Or it has to be your passion?

It is said that the Love of money is the root of all evil. Money is very necessary for our survival, but if it is loved too much persons will do anything to get it - cheat, steal, murder, lie etc.

If I had to, I'd even try begging for change if I couldn't find any other way to pay the bills.

@Janet357 I've seen two of them driving new Mercedes that they parked in lots away from where they're begging. I stopped giving them money.

We are comfortable enough now that we don't really need to do anything we don't particularly like.

I do look for legal ways to make extra money but there are somethings I wouldn't do for money, it's just not worth it sometimes.

Personally it has to be my passion. But I can also do other things especially if I have no option. It seems like money is a basic need

I don't usually do things I really dont like, whether it is working at some sort of job, or dealing with things that frustrate me. I look for ways to make extra money, but not those that are too taxing.

As for me, it has to be a passion - something that I really like. But if money really is needed, I’d get out of my comfort zone. I’d try something else to earn some money

It's what we have at the moment. Until we change the system.

There are things I would never do for extra money. I try not to let money control and change me. If it is a passion or something very simple for me to do, I would go for it.

My Dad made a lot of money when he worked however in order to gain what he had he sacrificed his family and his health. The last time I saw him before he passed away he said if he could do it again he would not sacrifice his time with my brother or me nor his health just to have a big bank account. Because of how things were when I was growing up with an absent Dad, I learned that money isn't something to chase after. It is costly. I have been blessed to have money to always cover my bills. I am truly blessed. for that. There is nothing I would do to just accumulate money. I appreciate the lesson from my Dad with that.
