Topic: I cannot go home if I don't make a lot of money now!! - page 5. (Read 1141 times)

Unfortunately too many people commit crimes for money, and that is a terrible tragedy and yet the reality we live in. Sometimes they do it to earn a lot of money, like be wealthy and never have to worry about money ever again, and sometimes they do it because they want to make some money to buy food because they are starving. In both cases they commit a crime and they go to jail but it depends on what you did and how well your lawyer is.

When you are a rich person who stole a billion dollars from people, you may not be jailed as much as the guy who stole 100 dollars from someone's purse to be able to afford food, because that person didn't had a good lawyer at all. That's how you approach things and you should be aware of the situation.

I don't think he was influenced by his childhood, maybe he was in a situation where he was forced to have a lot of money that he didn't explicitly tell us about. We all know that health is important and we shouldn't overwork, but it depends on our circumstances. If you need money for surgery for your child or loved one, you have to do more and will not dare to go home without enough money, which is normal. Can you sleep when your child's life or death depends on you? I believe the knitting OP is in such a predicament.

Yes, every problem has a solution. Just like after the night will definitely change with the day. So, he must be more patient and continue to strengthen himself and must be able to get through difficult situations that he may indeed be experiencing. And after I see some of his posts back I see he is strong and he also has a high sense of responsibility. Keep up the spirit my friends. I personally am actually struggling to restore my financial life and that of my family. At first everything was not easy. but I continue to live it and continue to be grateful with what I have. and in the end everything just got better.

He is really worried about everything. What's scared me most is that he got depressed thinking about it, but he worries too much to the point that he can't find a solution as he just stuck on that problem. All he needs is really his family in this kind of situation and to share it with them, because this can possibly make his eyes wide open for any possible solution or make it possible that his wife will help financially. But again, after the storm, there should be sunlight, so he'll need to go through it, just endure it, be patient, and continue working on it.

Well I agree with you. it seems OP is always depressed and doesn't prioritize his own situation. I wish OP could be more open with his family in all situations. And I think they'll understand with every situation the OP is in. And I think what happened to OP may be caused by trauma in childhood that can be embedded into adulthood. That is when parents always demand that their children always get perfect scores. i have a friend who has parents like that. and my friend sometimes looks depressed with his life at that time. But now he is already successful.

He only stated to feel afraid when he got 0 (zero) mark. He didn't say his mother become angry when he can't get score as expected. I assume it is just his assumption that his mother will angry, it was probably never proven. He may feel too negatively about the consequence.

Agree. Feel excessively/negatively will lead us to have no satisfaction in doing everything. People who think in this way will be difficult to accept his destiny and probably feel afraid to try new things. At the end of the day, it is hard to enjoy his life because he always think badly if he failed to do something.

Agree. We must thank to the God whatever the amount of money we get everyday. Even it is only $10, we can feel happy if we think positively.

I will tell you what you need to do to make a lot of money and it is lawful and ethical. Since I do not know what your level of education is, I would assume that you have a diploma. You need to increase your sources of income through upskilling. You may choose to go into tech where you are sure to be paid $50k - $70k for entry level positions. You could also try digital marketing, or maybe consider learning crypto or forex trading whichever appeals to you the most. If you have some cash, buy some credit card machines, take it to a restaurant or a coffee shop and whenever people pay through the machine using their card you get some commission. There is just so much you can do to make clean cash.

The story of your life in the family and household should be given the title "a husband is afraid of his wife" why are you afraid to go home, isn't that your home, your wife and your children, if you deify money that's what happens to you like now, money / the economy is not the reason you don't dare to go home.

What can you do here, to make money, nothing, I don't think, except: you have knowledge about investment, crypto trading and so on, if not, you can refer to other actions so that you grow economically, for example: management, or design and other talents in the field of business or other expertise that you have, tell your family that they accept it.

I won’t recommend you look for money in a illegal way, or unlawful way it’s really wrong, why will you make money and you won’t be proud of how you make your money, you won’t be able to say it to the public how you make your money, it’s really wrong, don’t pressurize yourself so that you won’t end up doing what you are going to regret.

You don’t just have to give up on what you are doing, and you should know that not everybody is going to get rich, but just make sure you look for something doing that’s going to sustain yourself and your family members. Any job you are doing, you can decide to keep little amount for investment, you can be investing little amount in bitcoin which am sure with time you are going make ur wife and children proud of you.

Previously, did your mother demand that you always get good scores in a math test? If not, why should you be afraid. Excessive fear will make you more trapped in nightmares, you will find it difficult to be creative if you cannot get rid of fear. Regarding the money you have to take home depending on your job, normally in one line of work you can bring home $10 or $15 each day. Don't be too pressured to bring home $20 because you have to work overtime to get more benefits.
Remember, Money can be found, health cannot be bought. Your health is more important than having to make more money to take home.

That's how he's showing he's desperate, but you don't have to give him any unlawful ideas. Just focus on those ethical ones.

I say, you can be happy without money. Try to find someone you like doing and do it. If you have a family to take care of, consider moving abroad to a country where it's easier to make money.
If you're desperate try a country with good social services, so that if you lose your job your family will have nothing to worry about.

By the way, OP's forum account is from 2017. It's really hard for me to understand how someone like that doesn't have a decent bitcoin stash at this point.

Obviously, we're not all created equal. We don't all start from the same place or have access to the same chances and resources because of this. Claiming that "failure is normal" is an elitist viewpoint. What if this individual is confronted with structural barriers, such as poverty or discrimination?

It's easier to say "invest in your skills" than to really do so. But what if they are financially unable to pursue further learning or acquire new skills? It's a fantastic idea if you have some extra cash lying around, but not if you have to budget every penny.

Your suggestions, while superficially sensible, ignore the inequalities of life. What about issues like unemployment, low salaries, and inequality of opportunity that plague our society as a whole? It's not always as easy as "falling down, picking yourself up, and trying again," is it?

Chill out man, your life isn't over yet. Hardship doesn't make you weak, if you can overcome this, it will only make you stronger. And if you are afraid to tell your problems to your family, then seek help. Talk to them and create a good relationship with them. They should support you throughout all your situations.  Trust me I have faced the same situation in life. To a level where I was dedicated to killing myself. Life was so miserable back then. So I took a break and went back to my family. After some hard work, now I am doing quite well.
One thing that I have learned, you should never give up. Situations like this will come and go. But the people around you should support you in every ups and downs in your life. So go back to your family, and explain everything. Hopefully, they will understand and support you. Then work hard to get back on your feet. Don't go for unlawful and unethical work which will ruin your relationship with your family later on.

One piece of advice I would give to you is that, make savings for emergency situations like this. You never know what could happen to you at which time. Take proper action before that happens. And hopefully, you will become successful again in life. Don't lose hope because God is the best planner. Cheers.

It's so disheartening seeing how OP is pouring out his frustration in a very uncontrollable manner, despite how sympathetic it seems, indulging in illegal activities as an option to make money isn't a welcome idea entirely. For him to have a job despite how underpaying it is, it then mean he's giving value and he should diversify such value by directing it to others areas of good sources of income through the internet,  Google KDP for instance and numerous of others.

If he's caught in the act of crime and convicted it's most definitely that the very family he thinks he wants to give a better life would rather be living in the opposite. OP needs to redefine his position for the sake of those he claims to care about.

True sometimes people forget the importance of having knowledge,
investing or trading in cryptocurrencies is so complicated and full of risks that when we have no preparation even empty knowledge it will be easy to lose money,
think carefully before entering the crypto market.

There is no way OP gonna make a lot of money just by getting advices here on there forum. OP is looking for an easy way, but there is no solution to get a lot of money except working hard or being a very lucky guy. There is no magic pill or short path to money. Be strong, act like an adult, but not as the same scared kid that is afraid to act and take adult decisions. Go home, have a rest and start searching for a side job (we have a nice topic here - Does a side job/business improve your finanical stability ?) or improve your skills that you use at work to become irreplaceable, so no one would fire your or cut your salary.

I can see  plenty of moralist around. But did you look to outside world? Who has the most wealth and respect for their income? How was it earned? The biggest crooks are the most rich. Crypto society even not close to those levels as it is way too behind actual wealth... Sorry to look so pessimistic but look around yourself! We are not surrounded by pink ponies...

We cannot say money is not important, if someone is saying money is not important then he/she must have to be a mad or a monk. Money is important but money is not life, money is not everything. That much understanding should be within us. Money is just like petrol, what is the importance of petrol in our life? we cannot use petrol like perfume in our body because it is flammable in same we if we start use money in our life then there will be flame which is known as anger, frustration and jealousy etc. We need to use money to move forward in life after all metal peace is ultimate.

when you have a job and are afraid of being fired, then you need to prepare for the worst possibility and make a solution. investing, or building another business is the solution to that. you can look for additional work. in fact, you can teach your wife how to sell a product. because I think your wife will definitely help and support you if you make an effort. when you are afraid of something, then you need to find a solution from it. settling at one job is not the solution to how you feel. try to learn and explore the knowledge of investing.

Not sure where you reside from, OP but in reality, nobody will ever tell ya how to make "a lot" of money. It's just like the usual "get yourself out there". If people would tell ya, how to earn money, surely anybody else had milked the crap out of that way.

For cheap starter, just work for a fast food chain and you might be able to earn a penny or two. It's not just something that people would tell you upfront.

Money can indeed buy happiness. You can buy a peace of mind with it. Nobody wants to fall behind bills.
The value of a person is quite different though as I believe that's like a family dependent situation wherein you'll be looked down when you don't have a job.
