Topic: A steady source of income is a man's bottom line to support his family - page 7. (Read 1270 times)

Without a steady source of income how do you think that their Family could survive?
Even if you have a huge amount of money if your not using it wisely to have an income it would just drain up from all the food and bills for your family.
I've been there and done that it doesn't really work out unless you would have a passive or steady source of income.

Desperate time calls for desperate decisions, he should have taken the job and be assured of something coming into his pocket at the end of the month while he looks for other opportunities to increase his income. Right now he has nothing and the desperation keep on increasing and he needs cash to take care of his family. He's also out of job so it'll be difficult to be granted loans since the banks won't have any assurance if him been able to pay back.

Let take for instant he had that job, he could go apply for a loan Incase anything urgent comes up as his wife is currently not feeling well and he'll be taken seriously. People get too sacred of commission based salary but they're not that bad if you ask me since I have benefited from such salary in the past.

Or better yet, have multiple income streams. Just so you have a backup if you get fired from your job or your main income goes bust.

I mentioned somewhere that my closest friend has been unemployed for over a year due to the devastating collapse of his line of business and and his wife's sickness. Last time we met was a month ago and he was depressed in certain ways which worried me a lot. I called him to see if he was fine last Sunday and he told me he was looking for jobs and the next day he would go to several interviews. I was glad to hear that. Last night I called to follow up and he said the interviews were not going well. I aksed why. He told me that nowadays most companies are not doing well, barely making even actually. The interviewers would just say the job is not entitled to any insurance or benefits, what they can offer is a very low base salary and the commission part would be subject to how many sales the employee can bring to their company. My friend was not willing to take any of them because he has a family to feed and his wife's condition is unstable which could need a lot of money for surgery at any time. I understand him and am trying my best to help him find a high-pay job.

My friend's story sends me a signal: no matter how much I earn right now, try to keep my job and souce of income stable. I am also a family man and have responsibilities. Anything bad can also happen to me so I have to be prepared to the unforseen problems, although I am doing fine now. Make hay while the sun shines. If you have any advice for my friend, please let me know. Thank you.

for now, since his friend is trying to get back on his feet, why not accept the job even if the offer is not to his expectations. but still keep looking for better opportunities. because the time passed of looking for a better job, he should have at least earn a lil bit of money to support his family. we can't be choosy these days. because if he will wait for that big opp, he may be wasting those days waiting. unless, he has other side jobs to augment his income while waiting for the big opportunity to come by.
