For a single mom, today’s job market is filled with insecurity. Layoffs and downsizing have become more and more common. Working hard for a company and being rewarded is now a distant memory. The only way to be totally financially independent in the world today is by taking control of your own destiny.
But how can you become financially independent without getting scammed? With all the claims you see on the internet about earning a million dollars in a week and making hundreds of dollars for just a couple minutes you really have to be careful of what you choose to do. No matter what anyone tells you it will still take some time and effort to become independent of your job and build wealth.
The big question is who do you trust? I found myself asking the same question and I started to research every chance I could. I searched everything on the internet to try and find a viable, legit way to earn a living while staying at home with my children. I found out after much research and talking with people in chat and forums that it would take hard work and long hours, but I was willing to give it a shot.
An online friend referred me to one website and what I found was rather intriguing. The website claimed it could offer to pay you for taking surveys for companies like Nike, EBay, Amazon, Wal-Mart and other fortune 500 companies. At first I was doubtful, so I searched Google, Yahoo and MSN on this concept of taking online surveys. My good friend had recommended it and I couldn’t find anything to disprove the practice so I decided to spend a little money and time to try it out. I figured $69 is about what we pay for the internet bill. If it didn’t work out I would cancel the internet for a month to make up for it. My daughters wouldn’t be too happy without Facebook but I figured it was in their best interest, because if it worked than I would be able to spend more time with them.
It was the best decision I ever made because within 3 months I was earning enough extra money at home to cover what I would make working a part time job waiting tables. This got me really excited and drove my passion even more to become financially independent and work from home full time.
Now the great part about this is that I am not computer savvy. I know how to check my email, visit websites and run this blog, which by the way is very easy to do. I don’t claim to know how to build complex websites or generate large amounts of internet traffic for profit. What I can claim to know is perseverance and determination to provide a better life for me and my children.
Now I haven’t replaced my full time job, I still have to go to the office and be under appreciated and under paid but it gives me something to look forward to for sure. I know now that I am in command of my family’s future and not some CEO who would fire me for no good reason. I was the best purchase It have made on the internet in a long time.
