What Teens Can Do To Invest Money

KingLobster @KingLobster (219) • United States 12 Jun 11

Investing is almost always a conversation that is limited to what adults do in the market. While their percentages are small, there are some teens that are interested in getting invested as well. If you were to give tips to teens...

KingLobster I didn't even think about some teens trying to do this kind of thing. I suppose that is just because it is so far from my realm of possibilities of even thinking to do something like that. However, you do have a very good point. It is quite possible that some...

KingLobster A very good take here. I agree that teens need to save what they are able to make to put towards school. Those that are able to afford school and still have some left over (a very small number of teens) should put that extra money to work in the market. A...

Is Making Money The Most Important Thing To You?

KingLobster @KingLobster (219) • United States 12 Jun 11

Some say that there are more important things in life than money, but these are often people who do not have money. So, the question remains, are there more important things than making money?

KingLobster It seems to be the general emotion on this question that money is not the most important thing in life. I am glad that people feel this way. I feel that we always say that money is not the most thing in life, but most of us do not act this way on a day to day...

KingLobster That is pretty cool. I had never even thought about using stumbleupon before. Perhaps I will give this a try with some of my own work. It couldn't hurt anything to put some work on there. Thanks for the comment.

Should children be able to get an allowance?

KingLobster @KingLobster (219) • United States 12 Jun 11

Should children be entitled to receive an allowance of some type? If so, should they have to do chores in order to get this allowance, or should they just receive it for no particular reason. What other restrictions might you...

KingLobster It sounds to me like you are doing exactly that. I say keep up the good work that you have already started. There is absolutely no reason for you to change up anything that you have been doing. Best of luck to you as you continue on this path.

KingLobster Marketing yourself on facebook is a good idea. I do this every now and then with some of my writing. I just try not to do it too often. I am afraid that I would start to annoy some people if I put too many status updates up about my writing alone.

KingLobster Sorry that I never responded to this comment until now. I am glad that you put that last line in their. It is very important that we do always remember that there are certain things that money cannot buy. When we put money before those things, we are making a...

Why do we save money for a "rainy day?"

mend3z @mend3z (52) 12 Jun 11

KingLobster That is a good point. You might not have to deal with fighting away as many other customers in order to get the things that you are looking for. At the same time, you are going to have to remember to stay safe on the roads. When the rain is coming down like...

KingLobster I know that I am personally pretty weak with these kinds of things. Given that, I would probably choose the girl over the friends for the time being. When we broke up later on, I would probably come crawling back to those same friends that I left before....

KingLobster Textbroker is currently only available for US writers. They are expanding out into other countries though. I have recently seen that they launched in France. I believe that they may also be open to writers in Germany since this is where the company is founded....

KingLobster Peace of mind is completely without a price tag. If you are able to get a certain amount of money that brings you this piece of mind, then that money might as well be gold. Feeling some stability in your life also seems to help you to want to strive to make...

KingLobster That really sounds quite pleasant. I wish that there were more things around my apartment for me to do when I get bored of writing. Unfortunately, that does not really seem to be the case. A garden would be a wonderful place to just sit around and try to clear...

KingLobster This is some of the best advice that I have seen on the topic. I really don't have much to add to what SpikeTheLobster said. I am sorry that the two of you are not able to work for Textbroker. I know that you would have made two great additions to the site.

KingLobster That is an incredible and inspiring story. I should probably look into branching out into other types of writing. I say that $150 for an article is great. I am sure that you spent a lot of time on it. I would have to imagine that you do to receive that kind of...
