your monthly earnings: is it enough for your monthly needs ?

Anne, where do you write that you make money? I am trying to, but not having a lot of luck. I earn a little at Helium, but I need more....

yes they do...I got a notice that I have been paid with $53.20 but paypal took something and I only had $50.84 net... that's over $2 !!! the only earnings I don't get a cut from paypal are those small sites with small payouts and promises they we don't get chrged.

patofgold...can I get the links that you made money with.Like you said earlier regarding the data entry and writing...Please introduce me to it as a referral.Thanks for replying.

Really? Cause my boss, which is from Phillipines said that living there is slightly expensive than Indonesia. For good private school you generally must paid that amount of money, if it is a international school, you must pay even more. Here the state school is cheaper than private, but the quality of private school is generally better..

from what you told me now, i think life here is less ecpensive than there soph! with the money i have, i can still afford to set aside a little money for the bank,. but hey, tahnks a lot for the advises and weel wishes! happy myLotting1

i don't think so... i'm not sure though..... i have never been to indonesia.. but so far i believe life here is easier... money could go a long way........ i have been to US and my money just flies by there... in HOngKong is the same thing.. here is the only p;ace i can get to keep most of my money. thats why i love it here.

i also thought of just do business at home, offline and online. but i have no money to start with.

i guess I was just working too hard when I was young and was able to set aside some money to jumpstart my small business... That savings I used, I kept in the bank for 14 years..... I have to make sure I get them all back...... it took me a long time to save that much money.

yeah i know..i used to work in a governement hospital too and they pay me ($12,500 - - salary plus benefits) i realized it wasn't worht it coz i spend for gasoline and lunch everyday. i am better off doing a little business and working form home coz I could limit my spending... i know we could never make do with what we're making.. somethings always come up.

the money I earn online, if it's paid through paypal, I just keep it there.. it comes in handy when i want to purchase things online... that way, id ont have to touch my credit card. it's good you can make do with the $150.. i assume you don't have kids. if you have kids...it could never be enough.

where i live, and since we are in the rural... it is already a decent amount of cash..and can allow me to do a lot of things. people may even envy what I make. thay have no idea how much iu have to limit my spending just to get evverything we want and neeed. i dont want to limit ourselves on the things we only need.. I have a son and there are things teen-agers want.. i wont take that away from him... so, i wanna earn more then

u know the best way to make enough money for a month is to do the reverse calculation and with the least values. Another thing is more u put in faster u get it out and better. so just follow the simple stats and u'll be making money in no time.

i wish you luck on your money-making ventures amilet!!!

It is for my only princess in my case.

hi there balas! yes it would alwayd=s be wise to set aide something for the future. you see, we're not always living in the present..we have to look forward too. we can't just take each day as it comes. it is good to do that, but you might get caught off-guard if you don't come in prepared. i make it a point to have savings ... at least not for me, but for my son.

she is one lucky princess!happy myLotting to you bala!

If you are needing extra help on things, then you may want to try http://aidpage.com/shirleybill Now, i know that is against the rules, to post a link, but it is, within the same means that we are dicussing, so i am assuming that it is alright. Anyway, aidpage is a place to go to, if you need help, or advice, or any number of things.

hi shirley..i did check the site you told me about...and read around. But i bookmarked it so I can go back and read more and figure out how to start. it sounds like a good site..just a few members use foul language though..but it might be worth the try...i am hopeful.thank you so much for sharing, and trying to help me. I will look into it and hopefully might help... thanks a lot,happy myLotting!

yea i know..that money is a little okay here...not really really that much though.. it could get us by though........ but with all the bills and expenses and school fees... it's so hard to keep up!!!! my son is growing up fast!

I agree, that's very stable... that's where half of my regular income comes from. It doesn't cause me to worry much coz they pay on time. the rest of my income fluctuates and that causes me to worry. so I always keep a list of the expenses and make sure I don't go overboard.. still, i make sure i could take my son out once in a while and buy him good stuff.

Basmati Rice is about $6 a pound here. How does that compare?

$440 a week is already a lot if you live here.....that can feed a small familr for a month already, but it's not like it's really really much. cost of living must be very high there huh? oh my,,,im glad life's not that expensive here.... i complain and complain... yet the truth is, we cold get by... i just don't feel satisfied with things though.. too much we want, too much we need...

we buy rice here by the kilo... (im not so sure about conversionof kilo to pounds,,i hate to do the math).. but i guess it's 1 kilo = 2.2 pounds please correct me if im wrong .. that;s as far as i can remember... we pay about 30 pesos a kilo... thats like $0.60

who doesn't? i guess we would never be satisfied with all the money we're making. For me, I want to earn more because I have a kid. plus things are getting more expensive to buy! it's hard to keep up!

It's not a disease, it's called human nature :) People never satisfied with whatever they have right now, they always want something and better. I think even the rich ones also feeling something inside or taking every gold opprtunity that came across their eyes:)

maybe it is soph. peolecould never have enough.and when they do get what they want, they now want something more, somthing else... it doesn't stop... no matter how rich a person get,he would always want soemthing more. they would invest their money so they could get more money! is money that addicting? i guess

you're right.. even the rich people would always feel it's not enough.. and would always want more.. it's some kind of disease, that is......... but i can't help it, can't help wanting more money.. i people to feed! whew! so frustrating!

I am glad you have not much things to worry about tint!! that must feel so great.. how i wish i have a stress-free life like you do... unfortunately I am still half-way where I am and there is so much that needs to be done before i can get out of this financial constraint. we're okay though, it's not really that bad... but I don't wanna settle for this.

those are such wonderful and inspirirng words to say tint! I would say you know a lot about life. I would definitely keep the determintation as I have my son who is dpending on me. I may feel a llittle discouraged at times. But there is not much choice but to get up and do what we need to.

I would like you to be constantly determined on your intentions of hard earned money.This sort of goal decides ,if anyone has would have already kept the motto and desires in life then hard ships are fought very well.Keep the determination for the heights of glory.Happy myLotting.

hi patofgold, thanks for the comment on my response,once again i will see your profile and blog and then contact you for further information,have a nice day

okay yuga..i'll be in touch too.. happy mylotting!

hi patofgold, thanks i am on the way to contact you soon,have a nice day

Yeah, monthly expense keep increase from time to time.... My little daughter just get into K1, and give me more bills to pay.... I must spend around 100$ for the tuition and her other expenses. I just tell myself, I need to earn more to keep up with coming expenses... Good luck to you..... BR.b

hi djhongs.... it's good you earn a decent amount of money to even plan to get a digicam.. i mean, i have everything i need, I have worked my way up for a long time.. there's no big purchase i am planning for the meantime coz I am happy with what i have so far. it's just the monthly expenses that pulls me dwn... i do want to set aside some money too...hopfully lots of it...... for something really big--- i need a jjmpstart on one of my short-term (could be long-term) plans.

ugh I kow exactly how that feel djonghs!!!my son't in private school...oh boy.. the expenses are non-stop... but we all want outr kids to go to good school, ans we have to find every way there is too kep them there.......

I hear you. I am wanting to buy my first home and do a few other things. If you use the internet to make money though, can you not deduct it as a small business expense? Like your internet/phone/part of your power and stuff like that? If I was in your position I would consult a tax accountant.

yea..i do count them as expenses..even if the internet connection is the same connection my son uses in his room for his projects and homeworks.... i do have a friend/relative that helps me with my annual filing of income tax... I don't have much problems on that part.... the bigger problem is the income flow..........

hello CJ!!! I do have a tax deduction since I have one son... that is a big help for me... the two businesses I am into: one is a building rental...it's just a very small building though - - - don't imagine a big guilding like most businessess have...it's a very small underdeveloped place, and someone rented it to hold bible studies on sundays.and during the week, they use it as classrooms for the kids of those who belong to their church.. they spent for the renovation, which is not that much, coz they didnt have the budget too. but at least it saved me from capitalizing so much on the place. that gives me a steady monthly income which is not really so much but could helpp in the bills and the school fees. on top of that, I am selling local prepaid load, and mobile phone cards and mobile phone units, and have earned regular customers from that since prepaid load are bought on a regular basis... my earnings from this fluctuate though. Most of my earnings online come from my writing jobs, about 90% of it. The rest, are from sites like myLot, trekpay, neobux, clixsense....etc... they all add up anyway..... i have a son and money is always a cause of concern for me.. i want to be able to set aside some money every moneth since i am saving up for something big... i needed a jumpstart for one of my plans.. i do manage to save..but just not enough still... so frustrating cj!

Thanks for your comment patofgold! I have just checked your blog and bookmark it! I will read it carefully this night. Oh, and that's such a good blog! Keep up your good work Hope we all can get better earning online!
