I'd just like to either remind or point out the fact that I, for one, came here truly looking for help for an almost desparate financial(or lack thereof)situation. 2 surgeries(with "over the top" costs)a bankruptcy, divorce, landing in a homeless shelter and a few other traumatic experiences later, here I am. I am blessed to be living in a beautiful Valley now making my way as a property caretaker for an older couple. I have wayyyyyyy more than a lot of people but no monetary income, yet. Many people might think "wow, she really screwed up her life". That's ok, it's not my business what other people think. But I have a huge heart and if someone comes here with questions and maybe no money or experience, we all need to treat them with kindness, patience and love. I remember some years ago, it dawned on me that there are actually "real" live, breathing people on the other end of this world, wide highway, not just typing on a page from some bot(well, most of the time ) Those of you that have not experienced hard times are very fortunate. Those of you who have, know what Im talking about, but may have forgotten(or not). I have a pretty, good "forgetter" myself after I've made it through the "storm". I look forward to learning more each day here, from all those that have gone before me in this "working from home" biz And, when I have learned some valuable things, I look forward to helping someone else denise in Sams Valley OR __________________ Denise in Sams Valley Oregon:)

You should be commended for sharing and coming here and trying to learn all you can to help yourself. My husband and I have always had jobs, etc. and done very well but just this week my husband was told he is getting laid off. It is a very scary road we are on now and I am definitely revamping and getting more serious about my on-line business(es). I know it can be done and I am sure you will be able to find something you enjoy doing and can make an income online also.

Thanks Coffee, very nice to meet you Yes, one little step at a time, I am making a little money. Today I received a survey from Opinion Outpost and for the first time, I qualified and got to complete it!!! 2.00 was put into my account there I also did my first "ever" article at ezine. Never done anything like that, well, I've written "stuff" but never tried to publish. We'll see how that goes. I love getting to try some of these things I really never thought I could do at all. Not much education etc. But I think each of us have gifts and talents we just need an opportunity to try out. The internet can give us that Hope to get to know you better and see you around the forums, denise in Sams Valley OR __________________ Denise in Sams Valley Oregon:)

My friends and neighbors edie and derrell worked all their lives at the same jobs and planned, invested, saved. Because of the economy, they are starting to dip into what was meant for when they are quite elderly. They are getting scared as well. I have learned to get by on next to nothing so I suppose I am just used to it. But now, edie is asking my help to get her started with some online things. I've got her setup to do some surveys and told her of my plans to have my own website and do Affiliate Marketing. Today I did an article just to see if that could bring in some money also. I want her to join this site and meet folks. I think she will eventually. I am so new at all this but if you ever need to talk, just pm me We can all help eachother with each new thing we learn Thanks for your reply, I love meeting people and.....knowing there are others that know where Im coming from __________________ Denise in Sams Valley Oregon:)
