Yes, money can be an issue from time to time. One has to find ways to cope with it. Having a part-time job, or if one has the time, having a full-time job, or even a second job, would help. If you are a college student, couldn't you find a part-time job on the campus ? That would be a relief. Good luck to you !

Investing is a good way of making money too but it is a bit risky. It would be wise to just use the money you earned online to invest but not from your own pocket money. At least that way, you don't lose much if it doesn't go well, only your hard work would be wasted.

Wouldn't hiring a financial adviser costs money? We are now talking about money issue here, so we have to avoid any further expenses. I feel that risk should be avoided if possible when we are facing financial crisis regardless of whether you are young or old.

I went to business school so the best advice is. If your young you should take more risks because you have time and are able to recover. The older you are the less risk you should take, the are plenty of packages for all types of people and type of risk. All I can say is do your research or hire a financial adviser.

Money is also an issue with us here. As our income grow, the expenses also grow with our income. I just don't lose hope dealing with this problem/situation. As long as you have a positive fighting spirit, and you don't give up, there will always be solutions to our problems, especially money problems. Hang on there, my friend.

I think as a mother sending a daughter to college,money is an issue for me. My husband and I have to work as there are other needs to be met. There is also a house to maintain and it is not easy since we have repairs to do. But with Go's grace and help and with careful dealings, my husband and I are doing just fine. I think when my daughter finis her undergrad course we can go off easy. But she's planning to go to Law school and I think we still have to work until she's finished.

Yeah I believe so but when there is a will there is a way so keep it up and I'm glad you guys are doing fine just make sure where you stand because debt comes easily and to get rid of it is very difficult.

hello,
Me too I am a part time student here in myLot. Well, for me I just do it for fun or for extra money that I need to have especially now that I dont want my mom to sacrifice all the payments or bills on our school. good luck to you! I know money is a big problem nowadays because not all people are born to be rich. So, it is in your hard work if you want to succeed that's what I always put on my mind.

I'm still in high school, but in a way it is an issue for me. I have a dance coming up, and I still don't have a dress for it. There are so many school events that I have to pay for and purchase outfits for, and sometimes I just don't have the money. I have to work for random people in a hurry just to get the things I want and need.

Well I can help by saving you money. I was in high school and yes clothes and trying to create your image and all but its not worth all your bucks. You might only wear those clothes once. . . So try to find store that rents out clothing, I had Italians suits and shoes that I rented out for some events and I paid maybe 50-120 dollars. So I'm not saying be cheap but find deals don't pay for price you look great just don't spend all your money to look better.

That is good advice. See, I live in a really small town, so we can actually buy very formal things for 50-120. So rents here are probably a lot cheaper :D

There are serious problems with money, and if you don't know the main one, try doing without it for a while.. Money makes the world go round- but only when it does.. It's just as true to say when money isn't moving, it stops the world. Things don't happen util money gives its permission.. No money no go.. Worse, it's also true that money sets the patterns through which human economic activity is organised, and those patterns are clearly destructive of society of human health and dignity, and indeed of the planet our very ground of being.. These problems exist because of a simple misconception deeply embedded in the way money is taken to exist indeed from the very idea that it does in fact exist, that it is some sort of real thing. Things that exist do so in particular quantities; things that don't exist have no such limitations.
