In todays economy so many of us are struggling anymore. It seems like most times there is more month than there is money even if we are working a 40 hr a week job. Anymore it usually takes an additional income on top of that to live. Even many times it takes more than 2 incomes even when it is just husband and wife.
The main thing I have learned over the yrs, is building your own successful online or offline business is not really a Bad way to go. Having some extra $$ coming in from sales, or other things out there is really a good way to go.
What things have you found to be a Great way to earn some extra $$ to be able to help you survive?

If you can, online is one way to go but you do have to offer something that is wanted and different as competition is quite stiff

Well, in that that can be the Truth, but at the same time depending where you are at it can still work for you. But anytime you can be creative and do stuff differently than someone else, you really can be making yourself known.

A few years ago online stuff was the easiest way to go and make money from anywhere with little effort really. Now that is almost as hard as finding a regular full time job. Many people are selling things to make ends meet which is good if you have a group of people who want what you are selling.

Yes, in a lot of ways, this is really the Truth. and depending on where and what you might want to try selling helps tell whether it oversaturated or not. But right now it just seems like for some reason sales are not coming my way

Not found anything brilliant yet. I did make a few sales in a certain place but I had to reach over 100 dollars and the money was never paid so its hardly inspiring for me.
How do you fare then?

Well, since I can no longer work for anyone due to my having Fibromyalga and some days hurt so bad I can hardly move, I have had to resort to other ways to help with my husbands income so we can survive. My online Business and selling on many different platforms usually brings in enough besides the little I can make elsewhere.

Must be awful for you to cope with anything. I just move even though I get pain I move it and through it and I have been there too.
On a much brighter note so glad that you can sell that you are able to reach others and obtain what you need in the sense of money.

Yes that does come in handy if you can find people interested in the stuff you are selling.

I do freelance writing and short tasks to help with my income. Plus, I'm looking at chat agent and social media moderator jobs.

Well, owning up a business is the best way to live up. I believe once you have gained experience in some aspect of work then you could try to build your own thing if possible. I am undergoing a similar thinking right now; if at all everything works out good can start up a mfg business in few months!
