Retire from money worries!

I work over 10 hours a day in a taxi and I'm fed up with it. I've been trying to find other ways of making mone (Internet) for over 7 years now but I've had no luck so far; I've earned money online but maybe just enough to pay for my gas and electricity, which is not bad anyway. I would like to earn enough online so I would be able to quit my job and just live my life with my family without having to worry about waking up at 3 am to go to work and hope that I don't fall asleep or things like that. I don't expect to get rich, just enough to live without worries would be great :) Last month I started working with Just Been Paid and it was something new for me as I have not seen this concept o busines before. I really hope I can achieve something with this one ;) If possible, I would also like to be able to help my family and friends ;)

I am sure that no one makes so much money each day, an i think just to provide something needs in their life.. I work extra online,and my earning is very little and i wish i can earn more but i can make it so much..

Well I work part time at a grocery store, and it hasn't made me rich. Sometimes it doesn't even make me happy. When I am not there, I am here. I work here before and after work and on days I have off. I do want to have my own income streaming in so that I do not have to worry so much about if I get tired of this job, or another. I want to invest in a CD and I plan to do that. This way I have money coming in from interest and I will also be adding more money monthly to the CD.

I have had several savings from working. I cashed in my AT&T stock and lived off of that for a couple years. I left my last job when offered an early retirement. Got a modest pension from working there only five years which I think is pretty good. Now I live off of my SSD and pension.

Wouldn't we all want that? My goal isn't necessarily to get rich but at least to be financially stable. Maybe own a home one day. Be out of debt. Have a good well-paying career. I don't need to be a millionaire or anything, just as long as I can live a few steps up from how I'm living right now. . Right now I have a full-time job at one company, definitely not what I want to be doing FOREVER though as it's pretty menial. I have a very very part-time job that I do seasonally, which is nice for some extra money when they need the extra help. I also come online, although I have to admit I don't do this very often at all... My main site is MyLot, pretty much, just because I Dont' have the patience at this point in my life to do anything else (and it's the most interesting for me). A few other sites sporadically though, including ChaCha & Swagbucks.. Offline-wise, I do a lot of selling on eBay (as of lately), such as with my old clothes etc. I have made a good amount on eBay that way. All I have sold is clothes & shoes though, never anything else (yet). If you have things laying around the house, you could consider selling them on eBay or Craigslist. If you don't use them anyway, you might as well down-size AND get paid for doing so. . I also do some consigning of clothes as well. See, I love buying clothes, I usually buy them on super-sale or clearance or second-hand for really cheap. So it doesn't hurt me that I go through them like nobody's business. I usually get an extra $40 a month from consigning at consignment shops, which is almost enough to pay for my car insurance. . Happy earning!

My ways of earning extra income is become a freelance translator. I like this job..

I wish I could retire when I'm older without having to worry about money, but I get the feeling like that isn't going to happen.

I have always worked from home for the last 30 years or so, but I would say that getting "rich" is very much to do with what a person regards as being rich. A billionaire, down to his last million considers himself poor.. Yet if I was to become a millionaire, I would consider my extremely rich.. Well for a while, until I got used to the idea, then perhaps I wouldn't think I was so rich. People do get rich working in a 9-5 job, if they feel they are rich. I know quite a few people who consider themselves quite wealthy, have nice homes and new cars each year and have never done anything else other than work a 9-5.. Things are not always how they seem. It isn't until you can bet a balance of mind between materialism and who you really are, that you can feel a richness that money could never by. As a therapist and Zen practitioner, if a person is feeling discontent about what he/she has in life today, he/she will feel it tomorrow, because the mind will be trained into the ways of discontenment. Be content with what we have, work hard and focus to our best ability, and we will feel a richness of mind, body and spiritu. _Derek

I knew this and i want to know more. I have read about forex, care to teach me more of it? i tried stocks and i have an account for stocks but have not started investing in it as i am afraid to gamble in it...

I am working 15hrs/day & earning extra income .01$/day...any new ideas share with me.

What is this forex? How did you find out about it and how much does it cost to invest in it? My husband and I are on disability we live on a fixed income so investing isn't going to be that easy for us. We are carpenters and do a little work here and there to try and keep us going. So tell me more about this investing thing and how do you chose what is the right thing to invest in?

Hi,iwrite~ Well,right now,I'm still working on some survey sites and Mylot.It doesn't take up much of my time. But pretty obvious the income is low. I'm trying to gather some materials and start a blog. And also trying to perfect my translation skills so I can translate from English to Chinese and maybe make some money. Have a nice day~

Forex is a nice idea. But its a bit complicated for people like me, I am not really good with finances and interest, and rates etc. But I do want to make more money, like any of us here. I am working 8-5, 5 days a week. It's okay for me, and I also do earn on my online jobs here, but this money is just for fun only. But I am thinking of getting serious on my online jobs as well.

My extra income comes from private tutoring at home. Lol. It's a normal thing to do for teachers in my country to give this kind of private tutoring at home. And when I have settled with my future, I think I can open a small course at home. :D

How could anyone hope to retire from financial worries when one is neck deep in monetary commitments. Only i money comes pouring could, one could hope for possible redemption from these financial hazards which take the breath out of you in slow but quick pace!!!!!!!

Just like you, I would like to be able to retire from the financial worries that I've had in my life. However, I don't really think that is something that is ever going to be possible for my family because of the burden that we are facing due to medical issues. However, I am at least happy that our family has been able to stay afloat because of the money that I'm able to make from home. Believe it or not, my staying at home with the children while they've been young has saved us more money than I would have made working outside the house with two small children at home.

Yeah, I agree that the money we earn by working from 9 to 5 is not enough for our need. So it's quite necessary for us to find some new ways to make extra money. But the problem I face is the lack of related experience. If I invest my money in a field which I'm not familiar with, I will worry that I'm more likely to lose the principal, which will be a worse consequence. So currently my only investment is to buy some financial products, whose rates of return are higher than the interest rates of time deposits. Maybe you could recommend some ways which combine the return and the risk.

I am not working right now because of my husband Randy's foot condition and I need to stay at home to help him out. We are both attending an online university and are getting financial aid. Randy gets a small VA pension as well and we are struggling. I am hoping that once Randy gets better or we have a better idea of what is going on with his health that I will be able to work. For now I make money online, I am going for a second Master's Degree and am learning a couple of crafts so I can sell my crafts on esty. I am not so sure about invetsing because I am sure it costs money to invest and I really do not have much in the way of money.

You need money to invest (which is not safe with those bad economic) and if you want to start a business you need money too to invest first. And it's also normal you won't make a great income for the first years plus you need to work day and night. So what you say is not making sense at all, it's just an illusion. If you really were such a great businessman you already been rich by now. You can work more hours a day, ask for a higher income, take a second job. A way to retire from your money worries is to end everything you spend money on and what you don't really need to stay alive. Start saving on an extra acount every month, find a good goal to safe for and stick to it. Saving/not spending money is a way to retire from money worries.

i go through different forex site and was free member for several days.initially the sites looked very interesting for me as because when i purchased 1 currency or share,its immediately started to generating profit on the particular purchased.Considering that profit i purchased more and started to getting lost,in every another day i hang on the internet with the hopes of that i would earn more but the result i just loosing.And in this way that sites kept me member as an active for several days,this is only the tricks of a particular site to get more and more traffic by keeping you as an active member.This is the truth though its bitter.
